It was a lovely day from beginning to end. Isaac was a truly knowledgeable and friendly guide. As native New Yorkers, my husband and I learned more about Brooklyn than we ever knew. The food, the bus, the other visitors, and our guide, were all perfect. Thank you all.
You can read my review at "Trip Adviser". It was a wonderful father's day gift from my daughter. Great food, fun and knowledgeable guide and thank you Mother Nature for the perfect day
