| This tour gives a good introduction to anyone who is not familiar with Brooklyn by covering different areas within the borough. Tony's comments are both enjoyable and informative and the video clips shown on the bus is a bonus. Pizza tasting is of course the highlight of the tour, and having two different kinds of pizza allows for tasty comparison. I only wish two tastings were more spaced apart time-wise. But all in all, a very enjoyable outing. |

| Although the slices of pizza were delicious, the real highlights of this tour are the stories and insights native Tony provides. An excellent way to learn more about Brooklyn and Brooklynites. |

| Both my husband and myself thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Both Tony, the tour guide and the bus driver were exceptional and to top it off the Today Show was filming the tour for a future segment and accompanied us on the tour. It made for a few deviations for the tour guide but he took it all in stride.
The pizza at both places we went was delicious and having never been to Brooklyn before we both learned a lot of the history and most of all the pride of "Brooklynites" for their origins.
tony was very knowledgable and the bus driver was very skilled at his job and saved us several times from drivers who cut in front of the bus. I would reccomend this tour for everyone, even if you have been to Brooklyn before. We had several people on the tour who were born in Brooklyn and said they learned things they didn't know.

Tony, our tour guide, really knew his stuff. We boarded the bus, which was very nice, and didn't have to worry about a thing. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. |
