Top Experiences in Prospect Park

One of the best ways to see New York City is by bike. New York City has over 1,000 miles of bicycle lanes and paths, reaching every corner of the five boroughs. We offer customized tours that are tailored to what you are interested in seeing.

All tours are led by our a licensed NYC sightseeing guide who is also a professional urban planner. Our guide is also credentialed by the City as a “star guide” due to his extensive knowledge. In setting up your tour, he will reach out to you to put a 2-hour ride together based on your interests and how far you want to ride.

Our rides are also ideal for more advanced riders who are looking to ride a longer distance (and see more) than what might be offered on a standardized tour open to riders of varying abilities.

Suggested itineraries include:

Central Park

Manhattan and Brooklyn waterfronts & the Brooklyn Bridge

Greenwich Village

Coney Island and “Dead Horse Bay”

Brownstone Brooklyn

Rides to local breweries

Rides to the best pizza

Explore Prospect Park on this 2-hour guided walking tour and learn about historic restoration and environmental preservation work in the Park, including cultural and recreation projects currently underway. This interactive experience explores how Prospect Park has changed over time, from the original vision of designers Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux to the ways in which the Park is used today. Tours begin at Grand Army Plaza and take visitors through many of the key natural and historic landmarks of the park, including the breathtaking Long Meadow, the innovatively-designed LeFrak Center at Lakeside, and the Ravine, the largest natural forest in Brooklyn. This tour also features a special behind-the-scenes visit to historic sites and features within the park.

These tours are offered by Turnstile Tours on behalf of Prospect Park Alliance, the non-profit organization that sustains, restores, and advances the Park in partnership with New York City.
