| Wonderful tour - and we've been on many tours. Rick is knowledgable and fun. He has a wonderful way about him and runs his tour as though he is showing friends some of the most exciting things about his city. Join him for the day and you'll see what I mean. You'll learn, you'll have fun and you'll feel like you have in Brooklyn. |

| The tour was wonderful! Rick was very informative and enjoyable. He grew up and still lives in Brooklyn so he knew who, what, and where about Brooklyn. He knew about the history and architecture.He showed interesting architecture on the Brownstones all around Brooklyn. He knew local gossip about actors in the 1940-70's. He knew where to eat. |

| I took the Brooklyn Walking Tour when staying there last week. The guide Rick was
extremely knowledgeable about the area having lived there all his life so it was
very interesting and enjoyable as it was more personalised. The pace was relaxed with plenty of stops to look at and talk about different aspects of the area. The various types of architecture of the buildings and houses was fascinating especially when attention was drawn to points you'd never have noticed yourself. This is a
much to be recommended tour with a difference with a great guide with a great personality who really looks after his customers. Highly recommended. |

| My wife and I were the only ones on the tour with Rick, and we were really impressed with his knowledge of the neighborhood. The amount of detail he went into, describing the history, architecture, and personality of the area was great.
We would highliy recommend this tour. |

| This was a fabulous walking tour from start to finish. It was a picture perfect day - Prospect Park, the architecture, the flavor of the area all brought to life. The pace was just right and Rick, our guide and lifelong Park Slope resident was colorful, knowledgeable and authentic ("My grandmother and I had the same grade school teacher"). The complimentary water at the start, the delicious local pizza at the finish and everything in between left our group all agreeing that this was a fun and interesting way to spend an afternoon. We left with a new appreciation of the history and beauty of Park Slope. Thanks, "Big Rick"! |
