Tour storico e gastronomico gratuito di Coney Island

Alex hat uns interessante historische Fakten über die Geschichte Coney Islands erzählt. Alles war sehr gut vorbereitet und fundiert. Zum Schluss hat er uns noch zwei wunderbare Supermärkte mit einer großen Fülle an Leckereien gezeigt. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Thanks Ursula! It was a real pleasure having you both on the tour. I look forward to seeing you again this week.

We picked this tour as we knew nothing about Coney Island or Brighton beach other than hearing them mentioned on tv programmes and that’s what drew us to this tour. It was a lovely relaxing way to spend an afternoon, walking casually along the boardwalk and hearing about how Coney Island has changed multiple times due to socioeconomic influences on the area from the 1900 to today. Alex had photos dating from different eras with him so It felt like we stepped back in time a little especially as it was a quiet Monday afternoon when we visited and the area was quiet and the rides were closed. Brighton beach was very different from how it was portrayed on tv. We visited different ethnic shops and markets and heard about the history of the area. We would never have found these places or even visited Brighton beach without a guide and Alex has shown us an exceptional level of professionalism and a deep interest in the tours that he leads. He gave several restaurant recommendations to others on the tour and it seems that it’s an expensive place to eat authentic food from the multiple ethnic backgrounds that now call Brighton beach home. Very happy to recommend both Alex and this tour. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow Adailin - thank you so much! I had a lot of fun giving you guys the tour, and enjoyed speaking with you throughout the day. I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow!

I had booked Alex' Coney Island tour during my trip to NYC in Oct 2023. By some strange twist of fate, everyone else canceled and I ended up being the lone survivor. Alex very graciously and warmly still went ahead with the tour. He had some great stories to tell, showed me the history of the Islands, gave me a peak into its socio-cultural and socio-economic lineage, and even took me to the indigenous food markets there. I can also be quite the Chatty Kathy if I'm in the mood and I'm pleased to report that Alex was equally participative in our mutually shared banter. :) The group tour which became a private tour was an absolute delight and I'd highly recommend everyone to go for this. Not to mention, you'd see one of the most gorgeous sunsets of your lives from Coney Islands if you're lucky!

Wow thank you Amrita! It really was a pleasure spending the afternoon with you. I enjoyed our conversations very much. I'll do my best to stay in touch.

Alex is an amazing guide! We had the best time and he really knows a lot!! He is very kind and offers to help with every question you have including other spots you want to visit in NYC. Regarding the tour itself I think there might be other tours where you can see more but Alex did his best to make it as interesting and enjoyable as possible!! It was still really nice to see a quite unusual side of NYC (there is a beach?!).

Thanks Laura - it was a pleasure hosting you and your group. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
