| I have been on several tours and this one tops them all. Tony is a fantastic tour guide with a great sense of humor and very well informed. He has certainly done his homework. The pizza's were great and the timing between stops was perfect. If you want a fun-filled day this is for you!!! |

| The Pizza Slice of Brooklyn is an absolute "must do" when visiting (or living in) New York. Tony is a gem. He not only is a very warm, friendly person but also his knowledge of Brooklyn (and the pizza) is amazing. We loved the tour (the highlight of our trip and I'm not even a pizza lover!) and have recommended it to the concierge of the Manhattan Club.

| The New York Mets baseball team had pitcher Tom (Seaver) Terrific. The borough of Brooklyn has Tony Terrific. (And his new sexy black bus.) Tony pitched a no-hitter, a perfect tour. Tony and Brooklyn together are a perfect union. My husband and I have lived in Brooklyn all our lives. In fact, we live just a few neighborhoods away from Tony. We were delighted to be introduced, by a master, to parts of Brooklyn we didn't really know. Tony is bright, interesting and entertaining. He, also, has an Italian dessert named after him: BISCUIT TOR-TONY. Does it get any better than that? Yes, when you take Tony's A Slice Of Brooklyn Tour. |

| What a treat although a little misnamed. It might be better to break this into two great tours. One where we see and walk around more neighborhoods and one where we test out/eat more pizza. Tony is fabulous and we had the best time and learned a great deal. Can't wait to try his next tour. Highly recommend for both New Yorkers and tourists. |

| I took this tour alone but meet lots of nice people, some actually from Brooklyn! - I did not think the pizza was the best in world but I very much enjoyed the tour of Brooklyn. Even though I had visited New York on numerous occasions, I had never been very far into the Brooklyn Borough because I was not familiar with that area. We learned a lot about Brooklyn, not only the area but also were amazed at the number of famous and infamous people that were born there. Sal is a great host and tour guide-he shows a lot of videos about the movies that were filmed in Brooklyn as you travel the streets, he will show a movie video clip of the street you are currently traveling He has gone to a lot of effort to plan a great tour. |

| Tony provides much more than a tour of Brooklyn pizza joints. He is a store house of information regarding the history of Brooklyn and Manhattan, particularly of the last 100 years. Tony provides information on what is occurring now and what is likely to occur in the future. Of particular interest was the information on organized crime in Brooklyn, and the location of where various movies were filmed in Brooklyn.
Coming from the West Coast, we thoroughly enjoyed Tony's insights on New York City, and highly recommend the two-hour tour. |

| I was not expecting to have as much fun as I did on the Brooklyn Pizza Tour. It was
very well planned and the host was outstanding. Tony, was full of personality and
with a friendly likable dememnor. He had a lot of knowledge about the people and
places in Brooklyn. I will highly recommend this tour to my family and friends. And
the pizza at both stops was very good. |

| I am always looking for something different to do with some friends and fortunately heard about this tour on my car radio. Tony M. was being interviewed on one of the morning cooking shows. As the interview continued, I knew this was one experience I didn't want to miss. I went on line and the process to obtain tickets was very easy. Besides being very knowledgeable, Tony is extremely passionate about this tour through his beloved Brooklyn. As he pointed out different "movie" shoots, we were also shown them on a screen in front of the bus, along with wonderful music. The two pizza places we visited were excellent, and the neighborhoods wonderful. Walking on the boardwalk at Coney Island was an unexpected treat. We have some beautiful pictures of the Brooklyn Bridge. It is with great pleasure that I highly recommend others to go on The Slice of Brooklyn tour. |
