Brooklyn Urban Art Bike Tour
Your tour starts in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn in the morning or afternoon. You’ll be outfitted with your bike and given a brief safety orientation before following your experienced local guide on a moderate bike tour of Williamsburg and Bushwick, two centers of Brooklyn’s emerging creative arts scene.
Start by exploring Williamsburg, a new center for music, visual arts and nightlife. This neighborhood is an influential hub for indie rock, hipster culture and the local art community. Your guide will point out popular and off-the-grid music venues, performing arts centers and underground independent cinemas here. Get a taste of Brooklyn by stopping at a chocolate factory for coffee or tea.
Then, pedal to nearby Bushwick-- the gritty, industrial frontier of Brooklyn that’s full of edgy artwork from both up-and-coming and internationally known artists. Once a poverty-stricken and crime-riddled area, it is now in the midst of transforming and redefining itself into a artistic hub. Ride through 5 Pointz, the epicenter of the street art scene, run by the Bushwick Collective. Admire murals and graffiti-covered walls, and see industrial lofts and unique spaces that have been taken over by local artists who showcase their creativity in interesting and innovative ways. Fuel up with a tasty taco from a local tortilla factory before heading back to Williamsburg.
Throughout your ride, your 2-way radio headset lets you stay connected and engaged with your guide, who'll offer fascinating insight into Brooklyn’s underground art scene. Your guide is a local working musician, so you’ll get a true insider’s perspective!
