Roosevelt Island Tramway and Self Guided History Tour
eniackj, Sep 2026
Such a fun and unique way to experience Roosevelt Island!
I really enjoyed this self-guided tour. The tram ride itself gives you some incredible views of the East River and NYC, but the history and stories throughout the tour made the experience so much more interesting. I loved being able to explore at my own pace instead of being rushed along with a group.It’s a great experience for both visitors and New Yorkers who think they already know the city. I learned some really fascinating things about Roosevelt Island and its past, and the whole experience was easy, engaging, and well worth the price. Highly recommend adding this to your NYC itinerary!

I wanted to do the carriage for a more romantic authentic vibe, and to be able to see more of Central Park than we could cover on foot. Our driver was great, we really enjoyed the ride!

Breweries of Bushwick: Old and New
RoamwithMo, Nov 2025
Excellent Historical Tour!
My friend and I joined the Breweries of Bushwick tour over the summer and had a wonderful time learning about the neighborhood's history and sampling beer at newer breweries. James did a fabulous job connecting the neighbhorhood's history through the present day. As a previous resident of the neigbhorhood I learned more in the 2 1/2 hour tour than my almost 2 years living in Bushwick! James did a wonderful job answering our questions. Bushwick is a large neighorhood and I felt we covered a nice amount of ground while keeping the amount of walking accesible for those of varying fitness levels. If you enjoying learing about New York City history while sampling drinks, I highly recommend this experience!

Great Bushwick Brewery Tour!
Celebrated my birthday with a brewery tour, and had the best time! James is a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and personable, and the whole thing was organized really well, from the communication beforehand all the way through. We learned some fascinating neighborhood history and facts about beer production and distribution over the years, and got to visit 3 really good breweries. The highlight was our final stop at Eckhart Beer Co., really good brews and food. Thanks James, we are already making plans to go back to the spots we visited on the tour!

This was an easy to follow tour with just the right amount of information and interesting facts. My 9 year old was interested in a Broadway tour but everything seemed too long. This was a great way to get some fun information instead of a scheduled tour.
