Rhythms & Roots: The Bed-Stuy Heritage Walk

The guide did not show up to the meeting place at the designated time and did not respond to messages.

Elle was so knowledgeable of the rich history of Bedstuy, Brooklyn. She was also friendly, and innovative in how she engaged everyone on the tour. Highly recommend!

Elle is passionate about her city and it is evident in the knowledge she shares about each landmark on her tour. She was very intentional about the landmarks she chose and I learned so much about Bedstuy’s rich history. Elle is patient, connects with everyone on the tour in unique ways and asks engaging questions to help us take in everything presented to us. I will definitely join her for more tours in the future!!!

I had such a wonderful time on my walking tour of Bed Stuy Brooklyn. As a long-term resident of the neighborhood, it was really nice to learn facts and details about some of the places I see every day. Our tour guide Arielle was so friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. This was my first ever walking tour and she made the experience a pleasure. I loved learning about the history of the old boys high school, learning about the historical areas, and really seeing the beauty of different gardens and architecture we visited. But most importantly I enjoyed getting a deeper sense of the rich history that the neighborhood holds. I also learned about some neighborhood resources that are available in Restoration Plaza that I will be utilizing in the future! I was reintroduced to some neighborhood gems I would love to visit. I would definitely recommend this tour to both residents and out of towners alike!!!
