New York: 1,5-times julelystur til Dyker Heights i Brooklyn

There was no way we could have seen all these houses on our own, there were too many different streets. Our guide was great at explaining lots of different things about all the houses and families along with interesting facts. He also had a light on a stick which was a great help for us trying to find him in the crowds. The directions were great from Manhattan, the tube stop brought you right out at the bakery - which is closed in the evening but if you're early there's a McDonald's around the corner where you can go to the toilet and grab a coffee while you wait. Directions back were also super simple, straight walk can't get lost and if you don't want to walk there is an option for a free bus.

I am already a Brooklynite, but I wanted to take my LOs out to see the lights which they actually enjoyed. Even though the weather was not up to part, the light displays and big houses trumped that aspect. Thank you to our tour guide Catherine, who was knowledgeable of the history of Dyker Heights and Brooklyn and made the experience even more exciting.

Fantastic tour guide - Nic - and great stories, engagement and overall tour! I’ve lived in NYC with my family for 18 years, and we all had a blast exploring a different and unfamiliar part of the city. Will definitely check out more tours in the future!
