Morning · Brooklyn Heights

Start with breakfast, then walk the Promenade and nearby historic streets. Keep the pace easy and be mindful of residents.

Midday · Brooklyn Bridge Park

Head down to the waterfront for a walk and lunch. Choose a manageable section of the park rather than trying to visit every pier.

Afternoon · DUMBO

Explore the warehouse streets, browse a few shops, and finish by the river. A ferry ride is an optional extra if the route and schedule suit your return.
