Even in the rain it was perfect! - We had the pleasure of being shown Brooklyn bridge and the dumbo area by Kyle. He did the most incredible job keeping us out of the rain as much as he could whilst still giving us the full experience. The tour was informative, fun and we loved every second of it. We were so pleased the tour went ahead even in the awful weather as we like most people visiting New York were on a tight schedule and wouldn’t have been able to go if it had been rearranged. Kyle was so knowledgeable and funny and we honestly had the best time!

Miserable wet tour - The guide was lovely & very informative however I honestly do think this tour should have been cancelled due to the awful weather. It was terrential rain all day. We all got absolutely soaked even with our wet weather gear & umbrellas. It made the tour miserable. The only reason we all turned up was because of the threat of getting charged if we didn't. It was absolute madness to continue with the tour & surely not being safety conscious at all.
