The Skyline at Sunset Scavenger Hunt in Brooklyn Heights

Discover New York City’s most charming neighborhood…

…with the most spectacular views of the New York City skyline anywhere. As your team explores the 19th-century streets on this hunt, you’ll discover movie locations, famous writers’ homes, a baseball landmark, Underground Railroad stops, and a Revolutionary battleground, to name a few of the highlights.

You’ll discover places associated with…

  • Abraham Lincoln
  • Mark Twain
  • Baseball path-breaker Jackie Robinson
  • George Washington
  • Breakfast at Tiffany’s author Truman Capote
  • Cher, in Moonstruck
  • Authors Thomas Wolfe, Henry Miller, and Norman Mailer
  • Jack Nicholson and Kathleen Turner, in Prizzi’s Honor
  • Walt Whitman
  • And some very unusual gargoyles

The game climaxes on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, with a breathtaking 180-degree view of the Manhattan skyline, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the harbor. Even Lady Liberty makes a cameo.

When is a sunset not at sunset?

When you say the word. While sunset is, indeed, a great time to do this hunt, you can book it for any other time as well. 

A Kids Edition is also available for school field trips or any other occasion where you want kids and adults to collaborate on a laugh-filled, time-traveling adventure.
