[@LosGroseros]

Hey Jhon. I'd like to see a video where you show to a typical tourist what to do in case of terrorist attack or these hate attack that we are exposed everyday in USA.

[@eddyno111]

Here Be Barr , hi john , I’ve followed your vids on the build up to our trip to nyc (we are here now !) I just want to say thanks your advice has helped no end , and the latest video in dumbo was excellent so we are going to do it tomorrow !- again thanks from the Edwards family travelling from the uk

[@dotry22]

Hey John. I'm looking to take that ferry from pier 11 to Dumbo next Friday. I don't see it as a final destination so I'm wondering what ferry it is exactly and do I need to buy tickets in advance? Thanks John, my wife and I love your videos.

[@eddyno111]

dotry22 hi - did this 2 days ago very easy , app called nyc ferry has maps and you can pre purchase tickets which you activate a few minutes before you board all on your phone, it’s very quick to dumbo and the pier at dumbo is perfectly situated for everything hope that helps

[@dotry22]

Oh wait. I just found the right website haha

[@mikeeshpere]

1:28. Where Dr. Strange found that guy who got healed in Kathmandu. 😍

[@KrystalKBeauty]

My wedding dinner took place at Celestine. As I have commented before, I am a born and raised Midwesterner. Anyways, long story short, the original restaurant I wanted to book my post wedding dinner at was not available. I stumbled across a restaurant called Celestine, which is located in DUMBO. It was the biggest blessing in disguise having that first restaurant fall through because the views in DUMBO and the views from that restaurant were breathtaking. This video brought me back to my special day! I can’t wait to go back. Thank you as always for your incredible videos!

[@josephmanzo6279]

Celestine is beautiful

[@jf6395]

its so nice that NY has emphasised opening up its rivers and waterfront to pedestrians....long overdo...NY is such a walking city

[@pedrovieira4949]

I love everything about your videos mate. Starting with your charismatic way to approach the themes you talk about, the songs you choose, the edition, ...... Thanks for doing this job, is really joy to watch. Cheers!

[@scottmitchell1992]

Great video. We had our first trip to NYC at the beginning of February and surprisingly DUMBO was our favourite area. The scenery and TimeOut Market are outstanding. Keep up the great content

[@RobbieBackpacking]

Another fun video as always, Jon. I always have a great time in DUMBO in the summer taking in the street art, public parks, and delicious food options.

[@singingknightengale]

This makes me feel great about how I hit up DUMBO a few months ago. Did everything except the food stops since I have a dairy allergy. Your videos were great for research!

[@pancaro77]

Hi Jon! Great video! I lived in NYC for 3 years and this is the spirit of Dumbo. And the new locations are great!

[@protoman011]

John, You elevated my experience here in NY to the next level. Your content and knowledge heightened my time here and I wanted to thank you. I have one final day here and I'm definitely going to check out Dumbo Brooklyn.

[@RandallCarrierINC]

Thanks for all your great tips. Nice to see someone who loves his city.

[@gethisoverwithit]

Thank you so much for your videos! I am planning to go to NY for the first time in Oct, and thanks to your videos I definitely feel more equip and prepare to go into NY. Esp with the pandemic still going around I feel like I definitely need to do my research before I go anywhere in hopes to avoid any possible interruptions.

[@Misiakr]

Man! I came back from NYC today, your movies helped me so, so, so much getting around the city. Keep doing what you do, I hope I will come back to NYC one day.

[@ririnioko]

thank you for this guiide!! we can't wait to visit NYC again next month!!!

[@FoodandFootprints]

Love the ferry! One of the best things you can do in NYC

[@HereBeBarr]

What about Juliana's !! haha

[@leejesson3368]

[@waltman333]

Congrats Jon on your professionally done video of DUMBO, with Bluetooth audio......very nice! That pizza looked delicious! Looking forward to all your future videos. Walt in Miami

[@WhatashameMaryJane]

Great great great video Jon! One of the best guides I've seen from you. The quality of the tips is always top notch, mixing trendy and less famous things to do, some history bites, but I really loved the structure you gave, the dynamic between head shots, b-rolls, vlog style clips. Plus of course, someone gave you a hand with filming... :)

[@HereBeBarr]

Thanks for noticing the subtle production things. Looking forward to catching up in Italia !!

[@robinpunter4377]

Love all your videos!! Especially this this and the Lower East side one recently. 2 of our favourite areas. Know many of the places you featured but still so much more to see and do. Can't wait to come back to New York soon. Keep them videos coming!!!👍🙌🤞

[@ElenaDelgado_EarlyShow_EHS2024]

Found your vlog today….Amazing, beautiful and best of all made me feel there. Thank you so much for sharing

[@katherineluu968]

I wish I could watch this video before travelling to NYC this Feb; I have missed Dumbo during my trip. But definitely put it into my pocket list for next time to NYC. You channel is absolutely amazing source to tourists plan to visit NYC.

[@liverlion1990]

Absolutely love your vids I’ve binged watched all of them! I’m coming to NYC next month from the Uk, You’ve helped so much and given such great advice. Keep it up man

[@anitascarr7982]

Great video! I’ll be in New York this spring and all your videos have been so helpful planning our trip!! Thank you!!

[@daviddovente1862]

I love Dumbo and all that area below Brooklyn Bridge!! I went last September and spent a whole day exploring it!!😍🤩

[@CathyS_Bx]

Oh, yeah, Jacques Torres! I usually go to his store on the Upper West Side and guess what? We got some Valentines chocolates there yesterday at 75% off! Great tips about DUMBO, thanks, you're the best. Team Adriana would have known more about fashion!

[@IntoTheWhite04]

Smorgasburg was in that st Anne's warehouse on Saturdays when we stayed in Dumbo for a week in 2013. Stayed in the old envelope factory on Plymouth street right under the Manhattan bridge. A huge loft on Airbnb

[@shareced7651]

I truly appreciate these tips! Thank you Jon!!

[@amazingandy6531]

Wow! Very informative. Thanks for the video.

[@prej1741]

The best guides! Rewatching just coz I love NY. Can’t wait for my next visit

[@KeelohTwango]

Extremely nicely compiled Jon. Missed doing DUMBO during my last visit to NYC due to a time constraint. Good in a way coz when I will do it will follow this superb video's guidelines for sure

[@SJ-gr5hn]

Very helpful guide! Thank you so much! Going to New York for the first time and I have been watching your videos. Your videos are the most detailed and most helpful.

[@pedroguerrero3862]

As someone who have lived in brooklyn for 19 years, I never knew about the boat ride. It's amazing all the things you can do in just one borough

[@sapphiric]

Thank you so much for all of this advice and tips! Just visited Brooklyn all the way from Singapore a few days ago. Everything was perfect despite the snowstorm

[@reedo90]

Hey. I just wanted to say thanks for making all these videos. I used them as inspiration when I brought 28 students from the UK to NYC last week and took them off the beaten track a little. They loved DUMBO and Chelsea Markets so if it wasn't for your videos they wouldn't have experienced these places!

[@rca6576]

I love these videos. I've been to NYC nine times. Then the pandemic hit and that was that. I live in Canada now and it's only a five-hour drive to NYC from my house (yes, I mapped it) However, I usually fly into Newark. I still have not managed to walk every neighborhood as I'd like to. Honestly, you can go to NYC and spend a lot of money but, you do not have to! So much is going on that just pick a neighborhood, walk through it all day, take a break in a park and take a chance on all the food that's available and talk to people. It's just magic!!!!! Since this pandemic hit and I have not been able to go I think my next trip needs to be an extended Airbnb. Maybe a month. I miss you NYC!! Thanks for the videos. They go more into depth and are more locally focused on the different areas than just "Here's ten tourist things" videos do.

[@marirchaves]

Wow, this neighborhood is breathtaking!!! Great video!

[@carmemheiros]

Incredible! Your channel helped my trip sooooooo much ! ❤ you rock! 🎉

[@pjIslandbwoy13]

Love your vlogs, always quality! 💯

[@scarymovieloops]

I loved visiting Brooklyn and Dumbo on my recent trip! Your video was great!

[@carlottaanna5010]

Very well explained, can't wait to visit Dumbo's area soon!

[@xeared]

Great information Jon! I loved that part of NYC when I visited last year.

[@HereBeBarr]

Hahah you actually commented 😅

[@andrearivero5083]

I loved this video!!! Thank you!

[@fr3d611]

Amazing video. I'm coming to NYC in March for the first time and i'm binge watching all your videos. DUMBO looks fantastic and i think i'll easily spend at least half a day there

[@bazoika4441]

I’ve been watching your videos to prepare for my first NY trip this coming September, really excited going for 4 days

[@nycdontstop8719]

Great video of one of my favorite NYC neighborhoods.

[@fabianatzizik8610]

Thank you so much for all the info I was looking for it, address, prices! great Job!

[@kateshao5549]

Your videos are so good!

[@elizapalumbo2366]

Amazing video. Will be in NY in 3 weeks solo and this will be my tour to dumbo defo

[@patrickheister482]

wow again a great video and thanks for the great tips that I will definitely try out ... I'm a mega fan of your videos

[@alexuslgbt5580]

Excellent, I'm in NYC in September, definitely going to have a wander round there.

[@julietamartinez3358]

Amazing video! Brooklyn is really a lovely place.

[@JamesandKarla]

Great video! We have not yet been to the Time Out Market and plan to visit and now after watching we know the views from the roof are great. We imagine it’s especially wonderful to see the bridge lit up at night.

[@karenb9788]

I love this video. Brooklyn is my happy place!

[@phillshas1935]

Thank you, we wanted to visit DUMBO anyways but didn’t really know what was there! It looks amazing! 👍

[@karthik4711]

Dumbo is in my wish list. I always want to visit it. Hope I'll be able to in future.

[@mariel_jimenez]

This was great 👏🏼 Thank you!

[@halliehp4775]

Wow that's a really good video man , I totally enjoyed it , thanks dude

[@VonGuller]

Good video! We will definitely visit Dumbo next summer.

[@torbjorn68]

Thanks for this guide. We saw it one night and went to Brooklyn from Manhattan the next day. Took the photos, ate pizza, Br Heights and the ferry back. Just wonderful 🤩

[@JamesandKarla]

We always walk over the Manhattan Bridge to get to Dumbo as it is less crowded with tourists vs the Brooklyn Bridge but the ferry looks like a great option now too!

[@erickfuentes7276]

Thank you brother for the insight you give us, am taking my sister to nyc next week can’t wait to visit all the pizza joints you show in other videos and definitely coming to Brooklyn I want to take that iconic bridge picture.

[@adalbertotorre9889]

Thanks for your videos. I’ll be there next week from Puerto Rico!!!!

[@nayanacharya6338]

I’m from the UK and was in Dumbo this week with my wife. We were having a slice of pizza in dumbo and saw you filming this. Didn’t want to disturb your flow but great to see you in action!

[@bajaconectorestijuanasandi8917]

[@HereBeBarr]

No problem.

[@aliciavidela46]

Thank you for all these videos

[@vanmour]

I’ve been going to DUMBO for 20 plus years (before it was cool) and the transformation and reinvention of the area is amazing to me. Well done.

[@HereBeBarr]

Thanks Seth, while I didn't dive too deep into the history I did research it a bit more.. and you are quite correct. It really has turned into a site.

[@eattherich9215]

Thanks for the great video. I shall be back in New York City this year and will be able to enjoy the delights of DUMBO properly since I will be by myself. I will definitely seek out Jane's carousel, although no rides for this oldster.

[@WilliamPhillippe]

Brilliant suggestions in this video. It has been a while since I did DUMBO. Thanks!

[@evamcaslop4770]

That was my favorite DUMBO tour EVER❤️

[@miacaton9294]

Oh my goodness I am definitely putting Jacque Torres on my priority list when I visit. It will be the perfect time, Feb 2023! Thanks for the video! Ready for Dumbo 😍

[@c.r.e.a.m.650]

8:40 By the time anyone read this, I’m visiting from California. Sitting in the cafe, literally drinking that AMAZING hot chocolate and got the Blueberry thing lol This guy is not lying…

[@edgarfilho6129]

That´s very nice and I like your videos very much.

[@thecommuter5553]

Great video. Dumbo is definitely a must see, especially since they opened Timeout Market. As a New Yorker, I have to say you do a great job with your content capturing the essence of New York. Since watching your content, I've been inspired to create my own channel! Keep up the great work, always looking forward to see your latest videos.

[@jonathingreen]

Great video! Amazing how far Dumbo has come in the last 25 years.

[@HereBeBarr]

Thanks !! Good luck on your journey.

[@joebaker7587]

@@HereBeBarr Great job! Dumbo has some great views of Manhattan. I really liked how you explained the history of the railroad system.

[@bebanieves8591]

Yeh I’m going back in 3 weeks so excited 😆

Good idea. Never thought of taking the ferry.

[@BoldonBigLad]

Looks amazing. Taking my daughter to NYC in July for her 18th birthday. First visit glories both of us. We were this of walking over the manhatten bridge, look round DUMBO, then back over the brooklyn bridge.

[@kevp9601]

Best Brooklyn Town In The Universe, And I Love This Town So Much

[@WillRamirez]

Just found your channel and have been binging it all morning. Love all the content man. Big fan of your approach. Congrats on you wedding. If you are ever in Toronto let’s collab. Lots of great food happening here.

[@gabrielladidjurgeit5622]

I loved biking and exploring the entire Brooklyn bridge park

[@randomities]

I didn’t know about the ferry, we will have to do that next time, and explore further afield. We only walked as far as St. Anns last time.

[@daplan2123]

Take me back! Was there in the summer

[@MSKAYO56]

I've only been there once,, although I grew up in Brooklyn. When I was growing up there, I think the only reason to be there was if you worked for Con Ed. You've really made me want to go back for a photo odyssey. One thing I do remember from my visit (about ten years ago) is that most of the residents must have pets, ,because I saw three pet stores within about two blocks.

[@SodaFountain]

Nice and informative. Liked it!!

[@madamlakwatsera5674]

THANK YOU!!!!!

[@geraldj321]

I can not believe ALL the incredible places to visit in Brooklyn, NY!!!

[@terrrell7798]

The tracks in Dumbo, there used to be alot of them down there. Gentrification cancer recently had most of them tarred. There used to be alot of them by the Manhattan Bridge and they got tarred.

[@TheDylancollier]

Great video! If I remember correctly I saw you outside the Starbucks in dumbo on the day you filmed this😁 Wish I came to speak to you as I was on vacation from England! Been a huge fan for several years!

[@LookWhosBlogging]

Cool! I remember getting the DUMBO card from you when we won your contest!!!

[@HereBeBarr]

hahahhaha !!
