| It was a great way to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday and to join our sisters in New York! Tony was so entertaining and the pizza was yummy! I learned a lot about Brooklyn and was entertained too! |

| We came from Italy and one of friends recommended the tour. It was great, Tony is great. We loved the pizza from Spumoni Garden, different than home.
We also went on the Christmas Lights tour which despite the rain was a beautiful evening. We do not get to experience such things in Italy. Molto Grazie Tony, Molto Grazie Brooklyn!!!! |

| Was it the incomparable scenery, Tony's funny and knowledgeable spiel or the delicious pizza? Or was it the lovely people I met on the tour? It's so difficult to pick out the best thing about the Slice of Brooklyn: it was a wonderful tour from start to finish.

| We have traveled all over the world and this is, without a doubt, one of, if not the best, tours we have taken. Tony is wonderful, friendly, fun and full of great information. The work he has put into this trip with the relevant music and video clips of movies that were made in Brooklyn does nothing but enhance the experience. AND, the pizza stops were so good! Two different types of pies to experience. Don't miss it! |

| We saw the article about the tour in the UK Times just by chance and decided that we would like to do someting a little different during our stay in manhattan and this looked interesting.
Tony was so passionate about brooklyn and this came through so strongly on the tour and his knowledge about the area was second to none. To be entertained and informed by a real brooklynite was both apleasure and an unforgetable experience.
We have been all over the world on different holidays and tours and this was the very best we have experienced and this was all down to Tony and of course the pizza !!
If anyone who reads this review fancies a tour that is off the normal track and to see a New York borough that has transformed itself in the past few years and continues to do so ----this is the tour for you.
I must mention the pizza, it was a dream and the best was the sicilian square pie that just melted in your mouth together with the 'spumoni' which was a brand new experience for us and much better than any ice cream we have ever tasted. I can just imagine Tony eating this as he grew up surrounded by people who had lived through a very different brooklyn and this was the thing that inspired him to tell thier story.
The world is changing and people like Tony have a link and legacy to the past which is priceless. Tony is priceless, the tour is worth double the money, you would be a fool not to take it.

| We had a great experience. The pizza was excellent! The sicillian pizza was the best I've ever had, by far. Tony was informative and had a lot of knowledge of Brooklyn. He put together movie and TV clips of scenes of the places we toured. The mini coach was clean and comfortable. Definetely a five star experience. |

| The Brooklyn slice of pizza tour is more than pizza. It is a slice of Brooklyn's history and some of its neighborhoods. Tony (the tour leader) is Brooklyn born and bred and his love for Brooklyn is evident. The tour includes stops where movie scenes were shot (and Tony shows the scene on the bus tv monitors) along with a stop on Coney Island and a walk on the boardwalk.
All in all, this New Orleanian enjoyed it very much. |

| Tony and Jimmy presented an excellent tour. The pizza was awesome and the Coney Island Cyclone was a blast. Their knowledge was immense and we felt like we have a much better appreciation of Brooklyn!! We would definitely recommend this to everyone! |

| My wife and I had a great time on this tour. We ate two very different kinds of pizza -- and despite the differences, both were delicious. Our guide, Tony, was very knowledgeable and very outgoing. Eventhough we had been to NYC before, we had never visited Brooklyn. It was very interesting to see a different part of the city. We are very glad we finally got to Brooklyn. |
