| Tony was extremely informative about the different neighborhoods in Brooklyn as well as people who live(ed) there. Sammy was a great driver - I don't know how he does it day after day! The pizza at both Grimaldi's and L & B Spumoni Gardens was terrific! Overall, the tour was fantastic. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about Brooklyn and experience authentic Brooklyn pizza. |

| The tour was alot of fun, Tony is a natural tour guide who obviously loves what he does. Unfortunately it rained the entire day but Tony didn't let the weather deter us from any of the stops. I have been recommending this tour to everyone! |

| Our guide through Brooklyn, Tony, was animated, humorous, and never at a loss for an anecdote or quip. Even though it was raining our trip was great. The pizza was delicious. The selection of movie clips, and music to go along with the locales we visited added to the trip. A little Brooklyn history and even Coney Island. |

| We had a great time on this very informative tour of Brooklyn. I highly recommended it to my daughter and her friends who live in Manhattan. because anyone can learn a thing or two. The pizza was great and it was a wonderful way to spend a hot afternoon in NYC. Watch out for the Cyclone!!!!! Tony did his research, and his passion for his hometown was contagious. |

| The Brooklyn Pizza tour was very entertaining.. Tony gave a lot of interesting cultural information about pizza and Brooklyn in general. He was knowledgable about the area and had some great insights. I only wish we made it out to Totanno's also, but overall it was very fun.... |

| We had a blast. Tony and Jimmy grew up in Brooklyn and seem to love their hometown. The tour was everything that was promised and more. The day after our tour, the cover story in USA Today was about the Melting-pot of Brooklyn. We read the article with interest, and realized that Tony had told us everything the article discussed. The pizzas were great and the tour was very comfortable. Tony stressed out when we got stuck in some traffic, but we didn't mind because he kept us entertained. Our 18 year old son and 20 year old daughter really enjoyed the tour. The cyclone at Coney Island was a hit, and we'll never forget 'fugetaboutit'
The tour was a highlight of our New York vacation. It certainly exceeded our expectations! |

| From the moment we were introduced to Tony we knew the trip would be a great experience. Tony is a Brooklynite and is very proud of it. He knew so much about Brooklyn and the content of the tour was superb. Both of the restaurants were welcoming and the pizzas were superb - completely different from each other but nevertheless superb! The trip around Brooklyn and to Coney Island was more than we could have expected. As visitors from England who have stayed in New York a number of times, Brooklyn was somewhere we had always wanted to visit and this was the way to do it.
We highly recommend this tour and have told just everyone at home about it! Hopefully we will return to New York in the near future and hope we will be able to take part in another tour that Tony is planning. |

| This was quite simply the best tour I've ever taken! The only complaint I have is that now no pizza will live up to the delicious ones I sampled in Brooklyn. :( |
