A top visit. Our guide Aymeric was great. Super nice, he showed us a part of Brooklyn in a fun and pleasant way. We felt like we were spending time with a friend who, in addition to showing us around, gave us all his good tips. We even got some tips for taking great photos in addition to the ones we brought back from the excursion. The lunch break is a plus and the attention paid to the children is really cool. We can only recommend this visit and this guide. It even makes you want to make other visits with this agency. We recommend with your eyes closed.

Very pleasant discovery of Brooklyn by bike with Aymeric as a guide who shows us trendy neighborhoods like Dumbo and up-and-coming neighborhoods, far from the crowds of Manhattan. Excellent meal also at midday in a typical setting. To do absolutely Christopher

Very good experience, Guillaume made us discover a different New York with lots of descriptions and sympathy. I highly recommend this activity.

Nous avons réalisé cette visite en Vélo à Brooklyn avec AYMERIC. Il a été extraordinaire durant tout le voyage, nous donnant bcp d’explications sur la ville de NY. Il a été bienveillant avec ma fille de 8 ans qui nous a suivi tout le long sur son vélo. On découvre Brooklyn autrement, nous recommandons vivement l’expérience. Le petit plus de la visite : Aymeric, en plus d’être très intéressant, est photographe ! Il nous a fait des photos avec mon iPhone : elles sont magnifiques !

15 jours à NYC pour la 3eme fois… et 3ème fois que je fais appel à NewYork en Français…et 6 visites et 1 shooting ! Tout est parfait ! Non seulement on apprend toujours un truc sur NYC mais on apprend aussi sur la vie des new-yorkais et des expats et ça, ça n’existe pas dans les livres ! Merci aux guides (Guillaume / Marie / Elsa et Fred toujours aussi passionné) Merci à Johnny pour le shooting Merci à Marlène pour sa disponibilité et sa gentillesse ! Allez-y les yeux fermés car vous apprendrez forcément un truc qui n’est dans aucun guide

Nous avons découvert brookling avec cette visite guidée en vélo avec un guide extraordinaire qui nous a expliqué en détail l’évolution de brookling depuis les années 1970 , l’évolution des New Yorkais qui prenne le temps de vivre de se poser depuis la covid tout en gardant ce dynamisme de la marche en avant Ce fut une expérience extraordinaire ne pas passer à côté !

Découverte très agréable et très intéressante d’une facette insoupçonnée pour nous de la ville. Loin de la foule, authentique, le circuit en vélo est vraiment bien choisi, sans parler du choix du resto pour le déjeuner, un vrai régal. Notre guide était vraiment sympa et nous étions tout de suite très à l’aise avec elle. La formule visite privative est vraiment top ! Merci à notre guide.

Mise à disposition de vélo en mauvais état et vraiment dangereux ! La guide Audrey semble bien sympathique mais son animation serait plus adaptée pour une garderie d’enfants, les commentaires sont banals et manque totalement de culture. Le programme annoncé n’a été respecté qu’à moitié, nombreux lieux prévus passés à l’as, durant 5h30 aucune pause excepté à midi pour manger dans une taverne infecte. Nous vous déconseillons vivement cette visite qui vous fera économiser $ 100 et une journée à NY. A mentionner, nous avons écris à la directrice commerciale qui réfute nos propos et ne tient pas compte de notre insatisfaction.

Super balade à vélo (sur des vélos confortables et fiables) avec Super Guillaume ! Ca fait du bien de sortir de Manhattan et de voir autre chose. Balade variée en petit comité dans des sous-quartiers très différents et tous intéressants. Arrêt déjeuner au top. Dommage que nous ayons fait cette balade en fin de séjour car nous n'avons pas pu profiter des bons plans de Guillaume... Un grand merci pour cette belle journée
