    Meeting with the makers of Fort Hamilton Rye Whiskey (the couple of the far left and right)

    This is our 4th tour with Dom the owner and guide of Made in Brooklyn Tours, and it was like meeting up with an old friend again, a friend who knows the Brooklyn neighborhoods inside and out. For this one, we went on the Industry City tour and visited four very different businesses and got a great taste, both literally and figuratively, of the history and diversity of activity in the area. They included a chocolate company, whiskey maker, stained glass restorer and soap maker. What most impresses us about these tours is the deep pride and love that Dom has for Brooklyn and for those who are being creative, working hard and sacrificing to succeed in making it there. Always highly recommended!

    Had only heard good things about this whale-watching tour and I had been trying to go for a while…read more Finally a date worked out and we got tickets the same day, so happy it worked out. The boat itself is clean and has enough room to move around while you're riding out to where you'll see sea life. The crew has clearly been doing this for a very long time and is incredibly knowledgeable. We had perfect weather and saw many dolphins and even saw some whales! It's a group activity for the whole ship to keep an eye out for some movement but it's so exciting when you do spot a whale tail pop out of the water. The whales were very active and we saw a few different ones before the ship was starting to turn back to head toward Brooklyn. As we were heading home we saw a two whale breeches so the captain turned the ship back around so we could see as much as possible. I was able to ask whatever questions I had about the whales to the crew and they always had answers. You can bring food aboard, and I believe on the lower level there is a little concession stand (I sat up top and stayed up there the whole time). Highly recommend a jacket or sweater as once you're out on open water the breeze kicks in.

    Whale watching right in New York City? Of course! It's amazing to think you can do something so…read morenautical and full of marine life from one of NYC's Boroughs, but it's true as American Princess Cruises offers up whale watching adventures right out of Brooklyn. My wife and I did this just the other day and it was absolutely awesome. Truth be told, this was actually our second outing with APC as we had already had a fantastic time with them back in 2019 searching for sea mammals. Knowing my wife (girlfriend at that '19 time) loved it, I went to see if American PC was still a thing (especially after Covid times) and they most certainly are! Their boat launch location is different (now in Sheapshead Bay as opposed to Breezy Point), but it still is the same great cruise line. What makes it great? Well the boat is of reasonable size that could fit about 100 folks. It has inside and outside seating as well as a small snack bar with some simple foods to nosh on and an array of drinks (including beer and wine) to partake in. You can also bring on some basic food (we did bagels) to eat if you would like. I will say the bathrooms might leave something to be desired, but find me a small boat with a luxurious bathroom (you won't be able to). What's really most important here is the actual whale watching experience with American Princess and their crew. The APC website boasts some pretty regular whale (and dolphin) viewing and it shows as these guys know how to spot and track whales. What's nice to know is they do everything under a "Whale Sense" program that trains them to ensure all watching and following happens under proper distances and laws. Naturalist Celia explained all this and much more about whales themselves throughout our 3 hour and change trip. She was incredibly informative and pretty friendly from start to finish as she was helpful in pointing things out on the water. Other crew members (including the captain) did the same which helped in keeping us looking in the right direction. Directions like time were important (they used the "o'clock" method) because we definitely needed them to point us in the correct location. Starting early in our trip we began spotting whales. There were 3 humpbacks total that were spotted as well as a minke whale (which I had never heard of) and is apparently rarer to see. The trip was finished off with a pod of about thirty dolphins jumping and playing around our boat which was super cool. Overall, I highly recommend whale watching with American Princess Cruises. If you thought you needed to go out of Long Island in Montauk or this was some kind of Nordic European thing you could only do then you thought wrong! American Princess Cruises gives you everything you need to safely and enjoyably watch some sea mammal life right from an NYC Borough. Who knew? I did! And now you do too.

    For a business that has "fun" in its title, the cashier is a lot of things but fun... hehe but fun…read more The website is maintained very nicely in the event that anyone needs to verify location hours-- but I wouldn't recommend this service. The person manning the shack carried a standoffish demeanor and wasn't very receptive to questions. We inquired about whether to pay beforehand and late policy and the host was upset to even be asked that question as though we're supposed to inherently know that we're supposed to anticipate how long we're taking the rentals for. So much for enjoying the scenery. To describe the equipment aptly-- it was shit. The mechanisms were intuitive but had poor build quality. The wheels are small, so it requires a large input of energy to at best move at a moderate pace, the driver's side chain stopped at certain intervals, so you couldn't build momentum, and one of the pedals behind the driver was slanted so far that you couldn't even pedal, leaving the ride to 3 people at most. The cart was adorned by Christmas lights but they didn't work.

    Oscar and Steven has been very helpful every time that we go. I feel like they should be paid more…read morefor all they do. (Taking out the bikes/surrey's one by one each morning. Sometimes one is there and not the other) We were there on the fourth of July and it got pretty busy. The line was pretty long but they both handled everything smoothly. My husband and I take our daughter every weekend for a bicycle ride. (We bought an annual pass so you save 50% off each rental. Once you buy the pass, the 50% off doesn't start until your next rental). Our daughter enjoys the rides each time. Some of the surrey's can be a little squeaky and noisy. (Depends on which color).

    This was literally the best birthday present I've ever received. Words will not do Marc's tour…read moreguiding justice, but I will say that this man should be given a raise and his own stand-up special. He was as funny and informative as they come, detailing dates, places, people, and events all from an authentic Brooklyn POV. He had us laughing to the point of tears, salivating with the descriptions of the pizza we would soon ingest and astonished with some of the real-life facts he drops as you pass by Brooklyn's most notorious and iconic neighborhoods. You get shown clips from movies and television shows that have shot all over Brooklyn as you drive by the locations. The tour stops off in DUMBO, Bensonhurst and Coney Island before completing the loop back in Manhattan, so you definitely are exposed to a whole hell of a lot of New York in 4ish hours. You can also voluntarily choose to stay in Coney Island and not go back to the city, which is an awesome option to have if you want to play tourist or just ride some roller coasters after stuffing yourself full of pie! As a film/pizza enthusiast, this was literally one of the best days of my life, enhanced only by the company of my friends and the spectacular narration of Marc. This tour is definitely the best tour I've ever been on. It was equal parts hilarious and informative, with just enough wackiness and kitsch from Marc to make the whole experience truly unforgettable. I'll definitely be bringing friends and family on the tour in the future and am very interested in the other tours now as a result!
