| Great tour. Great Pizza. We've been telling all our friends to put the Slice of Brooklyn tour on their "A" list of things to do when in NYC. Entertaining, Informative, and Filling. |

| This is a FABULOUS tour that nobody should miss. It was extra special to me since my parents were born and bred in Brooklyn and seeing where they grew up, dated, and the streets where they walked had a very special meaning to me. Tony was a gracious, warm, witty, and wonderful guide. If there is something about the borough that he doesn't know, I don't know what it could be. The pizza was divine (the best I've ever had), the sights were awesome (Brooklyn Bridge, DUMBO park, streets were many a movie was filmed, Coney Island boardwalk), etc. etc. I could go on and on, but the bottom line is don't miss this tour when in NYC. It's very, very special. |

| Tony gave an amazing tour of Brooklyn, combining Brooklyn's role in history, the arts, sports and, of course pizza! Among the most creative aspects of the tour was Tony's use of the DVD to show movie segments each of which took place in the exact spot we were at the moment the segment was shown. Clearly, the creation of this tour was a labor of love with incredible attention to detail.
My husband was skeptical about the tour as he feared it would be just about pizza, in the end he enjoyed it immensely. We recommend renaming the tour - something like "Brooklyn with a slice... "
Good luck with future tour development and continued success with this one.

| Tony was great. His audio/visuals were real plus. The pizza was wonderful. The bus was comfortable. Could not have asked for more. |

| My wife saw this tour on the Today Show several months ago. We live in Texas. She was born in Brooklyn and wanted to go on the tour. We signed up and included her brother and sister in law from Queens. The tour far exceeded any expectations. The tour guide was fantastic! We will highly recommend t his tour to anyone we know going to NYC.
As an aside, I know I am probably the only one with this opinion, however, the thick crust pizza was all but inedible.
I would readily take this tour again, only opting for the ice cream instead of the past pizza.

| We had a great time, learned a lot about the Brooklyn borough. A lot of history there. Spend most of my time in Manhattan, so it was a good thing to get off the island for a while. I'd recommend this trip to anyone. Good food - we liked the 1st pizza best, though the room was a bit crowded - not a big deal at all. |

| My husband and I highly recommend this tour as it is different, interesting and so well done. Tony is passionate about his "Brooklyn" and it shows. He loves what he does!!
It's a great way to see a borough you probably wouldn't make an effort to see on your own. The history, movie scenes, and celebrety list add colour, while the Pizza adds the flavour!!

| I love New York and have been on many, many tours. This one is the best! Tony, the tour leader, is knowledgeable and humorous. Because he has lived in Brooklyn his entire life, he provides insights that only locals can. And the pizza---WOW!
I highly recommend A Slice of Brooklyn. It is great!! |
