About This Tour in New York City

Hop aboard our climate controlled luxury minibus and take a journey to the new culinary center of the Big Apple, where food and dining trends are dispersed to the rest of the country, in Brooklyn. And with this half-day tour, you can take a big bite out of it. From old ethnic enclaves to the latest hipster 'hoods, Brooklyn's dining scene is both diverse and cutting edge. Munch on pierogies in Polish-dominated Greenpoint and tasty Mediterranean fare in Williamsburg. Chocolate bon-bons in DUMBO. You’ll also get to enjoy freshly made empanadas in Park Slope, coal brick oven pizza in the Gowanus area and finish off with a cannoli in Carroll Gardens. This guided bus and eating tour of New York's coolest and tastiest borough is ideal for foodies and the people who love them. You can even end your Brooklyn adventure by walking back to Manhattan across the most famous Brooklyn landmark, the Brooklyn Bridge, or ride back on the coach to the starting point of the tour in Greenwich Village.
