| This was the best activity I have ever participated in while visiting NYC. Rick was an excellent tour guide. He is very knowledgeable, interesting and fun. I never visited Brooklyn before our walking tour...we fell in love with Park Slope and plan to visit again in the future. I highly recommend this tour. Be brave and venture beyond Manhattan into Brooklyn and TAKE THIS TOUR. You will not be disappointed. |

| Rick provided a wonderful and very personal introduction to Brooklyn. He provided local color, history and architecture of the various neighborhoods. I would recommend this tour to my family and friends. |

| My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed Big Rick's walking tour through neighborhoods that were filled with wonderful architecture. Rick identified Romansque, Queen Ann and Victorian detail along with specialities like Eggs and Dart designs and original Tiffany stained windows.
We also enjoyed listening to Rick's boyhood stories describing how it was in his younger days in Brooklyn .
This tour was definitely worthwhile and extremely enjoyable to all in the group. |

| The day we took the tour was gorgeous. We lucked out and were the only two people on the tour so it was super personal, fun, informative and we would go again in a heartbeat. Rick was friendly and knowledgeable about the neighborhood, the architecture was amazing, the pizza was great. What a fun way to spend the afternoon exploring the neighborhood in which we live. |

| We had a great time seeing Brooklyn. Never realized there was so much history and beauty there. While many stereotypes were challenged, we also felt like our guide was out of a movie--a real Brooklynite! It was a great way for us to spend a few hours on a beautiful day and see a different side of NYC. |

| After yearly trips to Manhattan for more than two decades, we decided it was time to cross the bridge. Rick provided us with an authentic view of his lifelong neighborhood. From history to culture to architecture we were immersed in a fun and informative walk. The legendary brownstones are lovely, the churches and former mansions magnificent. We learned of Revolutionary battles, Olmsted's "other" park, the ethnic diversity through the years, urban gardens and more all sprinkled with anecdotes only this real Brooklynite could provide. Rick customized our tour to our interests and left us wanting to return. And don't forget the pizza! |
