Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO and Brooklyn Bridge guided tour in French

This tour begins in the heart of Brooklyn Heights (literally “the heights of Brooklyn”), a pleasant residential area that stands out for the tranquility and beauty of its streets. You can admire superb terraced houses in red sandstone (brownstones) and authentic mansions dating from before the American Civil War! Architectural qualities that made it the first neighborhood protected by the New York City Monuments Conservation Commission.

The Brooklyn Heights Promenade offers magnificent views of the East River and the Manhattan skyline. An experience that will extend naturally when you enter Brooklyn Bridge Park, which can be said without exaggeration as one of the most photogenic green spaces in the city.

You will then walk on the cobbled streets of DUMBO, and you will understand how this old industrial area, bought by a billionaire promoter, has become a high place of artistic and cultural creation (there are several art galleries) before attracting world renowned technology start-ups. Luxury real estate, trendy boutiques and restaurants complete the picture of this neighborhood that never stops transforming.

Last but not least, as our American friends say, you will end the tour at the foot of the mythical Brooklyn Bridge! The history DE this monumental bridge, which played an essential role in the development DE the city, will be revealed to you. You can then cross the bridge yourself to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view!
