| I had my Graduate Interior Architecture students attend this event for their class. The feedback was very positive from my students. Rick the tour guide was very infomative on architecture details, history and Brooklyn trivia. The tour enable the students to see a variety of styles. This was very helpful for hands-on experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!

| The tour was great. We´re a couple of Aussie friends on a 3 day trip to NY and wanted to see a bit more than Manhattan.
Tour was just the right length, with just the right balance of history and local stories to make it real without being academic. It was lovely to see the area through the eyes of a local.
Pizza slice was delish!!! Just what was needed after 2 hours walking.
Thank you! |

Excellent walk!

| Recently, a friend & I signed up for the Park Slope tour & strolled around this beautiful Brooklyn neighborhood with Big Rick. After the tour was done, we met other friends & found ourselves relaying what we'd learned on this informative tour that took place in an area that neither one of us knew much about at the start.
Hearing stories from Rick's childhood days, growing up in Brooklyn, brought a warmth to the tour that is hard to beat since most tours of other cities are given by 'hired guns' who simply memorize details while Rick actually experienced the ones that he portrayed. He pointed out many sights & architectural details - both past & present, that would surely have been missed had we done our own walking tour.
Thanks for providing this service! One Brooklyn neighborhood 'down', others to follow! |

| Big Rick was lots of fun while totally giving us a lot of history of the Park Slope area of Brooklyn. he was pleasant and outgoing and told many personal stories that were woven into the history of the area. i would definitely go again to other tours - this by the way was my 4th time with a Zerve tour, Janet Barson |

Great intro to Brooklyn -Rick was great!
