| The tour guide really gave a good flavor of the neighborhood he grew up in. I got a good sense of how it was in the seventies and how it gentrified to become the nice area it is today. I received a good cultural and historical perspective of the neighborhood and the Grand Army Plaza area. Would highly recommend. |

| 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 |

| We walked by my house!
I always wanted to know what this guy was doing pointing at my house, so I signed up for the tour. I lived here for over 20 years and never noticed the gargoyles and hobbits over my doorway. Cool...
This was a lot of fun. If you are visiting NYC, this is a great way to see a neighborhood not just the touristy things. But, I will will be recommending it to my neighbors, it is a great way appreciate you own borough! I will be giving this tour as a gift.
I even blogged about it. |

| 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. |

| 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"! |

| I really enjoyed the knowledge that our tour guide had about the neighborhood. I have lived in the Park Slope area for over a year and he was able to point out so many things that I have always wondered about and other things that I never noticed before. It definitely gave me a new appreciation for my neighborhood. I would recommend this tour for any one. |
