| We not only enjoyed some Great Pizza, but we experienced many great Brooklyn locations. Being from NJ, we typically visit Manhattan, but this tour was certainly just as enjoyable and a bit less hectic.....Thank you to our tour guide, Paula....Bravo |

| We had a wonderful time touring Brooklyn and seeing the sights and feasting on some of the best pizza on the planet. I felt like a wide eyed kid again, on vacation, with a great host. Tony knows Brooklyn and pizza, he and Dan do a great job of getting you around in style to see a slice of Brooklyn, a piece of New York, and best of all, a slice of life, that will be unforgettable. |

| This tour is one of the highlights, if not the highlight, of our weeklong visit to NYC. What can I say? Tony is THE BEST! He's a lot of fun and very down to earth. After a few minutes, my family and I felt like we've been Tony's friends for a long time. Eventhough we went on this tour on a rainy July day, Tony still made it fun and didn't let the bad weather dampen our experience. We found out about the different neighborhoods in Brooklyn. The movie clips were very entertaining. Grimaldi's pizza is very good. You can tell how fresh the ingredients are and that made a difference in taste. The crust is perfect. The second pizza was from L&B spumoni gardens. Talk about great! My family and I thought this was by far THE BEST pizza we've ever had! Ever! This one takes the pie (no pun intended) Thank you, Tony! We had a great time! Tony and L&B pizza are the two main reasons why you should go on this tour. |

| Bus was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Had ample servings of pizza. Short film clips was interesting but distracting when looking at the sites. Would have preferred more time between pizza stops. |

| My husband and I are both from Brooklyn and we wanted to show our grandchildren where we were brought up. Tony has put together a great tour we had a lot of fun and our grandkids had fun and lots of pizza. We leared a lot but also was entertained. Tony was the best guide ever. We were the only locals the rest of the tour was made up of people from Austrlia, Germany, and Ireland and they loved it as well. We plan to do another tour in the spring. |

| This tour was entertaining, informative, fascinating, fun and worth every penny. I highly recommend it to anyone who has even a mild interest in the history and culture of Brooklyn and a taste for delicious pizza. Tony, the tour guide (a true Brooklynite) is a compelling story teller and will have you hanging on his every word. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of Brooklyn and a wonderful sense of humor. Tony is a great guy!
A major plus for movie buffs: actual movie scenes are screened inside the bus as you visit the locations where the films were shot and it is totally enthralling. I loved this tour! |

| Since going on this tour we have experienced all the following :
Have not stopped talking about it. Have been telling our friends and family about it. Have planned our next trip to Brooklyn. Have suffered from intense Grimaldi's & Spumoni's pizza withdrawal !
Tony has created a masterpiece that features pizza -but it's a lot more than just the pizza. Its Brooklyn history , its real estate info, its the story of the evolution of the city and it's famous people and it's pop culture. It's many amazing photo ops and it's the very cool experience of going to a popular restaurant and walking right past a line of 100 to your waiting table!
A brilliant part of the experience are the videos on the bus of movie scenes timed precisely with your arrival at the exact location where they were shot.
Tony personalized the tour by speaking one on one with all the guests. He posseses a wealth of information and I believe he could speak in depth on any subject that has anything to do with his beloved Borough.
My 13 year old daughter loved it too!
Thinking about going to a Broadway play? Fuhgeddaboudit! Take this tour instead, you won't regret it. |

| It was an outstanding tour. Tony our guide was informed, enthusiastic, full of energy, an allover fantastic guide. A Brooklynite to the core, he exuded love of the borough. Coming originally from The Bronx, I saw Brooklyn in an entirely diferent light at the end of the tour. I definitely will recommend it to others. it was a perfect day, foodwise, guidewise and weatherwise. |

| The Slice of Brooklyn tour was a wonderful day spent learning tidbits about Kingsborough (Brooklyn), eating great pizza and enjoying Tony's animated commentary. I enjoyed walking on the Coney Island boardwalk and having photo opportunities of the Brooklyn Bridge. A day well spent! |

| Our friends went on this tour last year, and they raved about the tour and Tony. Four of us from Jersey, signed up for "A Slice of Brroklyn Pizza Tour" on June 27, 2008. We have all been on many tours throughout America and abroad. You could not find a tour guide with more knowledge, enthusiasm, and humor than Tony Muia. The video montages that illustrated the various movie scenes that were filmed in Brooklyn really added to the visual effect. Rather than just showing the movie location, Tony provided actual movie footage of each particular site. That was really fun. We learned about the history of Brooklyn and the variety of cultures and housing. The pizza stops were excellent. We sampled Margarita and Sicilian Pizzas...yummy! Tony's enthusiasm was the best selling point of his tour. At the conclusion of his tour, our group of four got off the bus and walked back to the Brooklyn Bridge and walked over to Brookyln and back again to Manhattan. I have always wanted to walk over the bridge. I had a greater appreciation of the architecture and history of the bridge because of this tour. We took lots of pictures and shared them with many friends through e-mail, recommending this fun tour. |
