| My husband and son do not like to take tours, but I talked them into this one. I am sure glad I did. We all had a blast with Tony. We really enjoyed getting out and walking the different areas. The pizza was delicous. My son lives in Brooklyn and he also learned a lot of new stuff about the different boroughs. I enjoyed the movie clips. Next time we are in the city we will consider taking one of the other tours that Tony offers. |

| This was the second time we had visited NYC. We were looking for some fun and unusual things to do and saw the review for this activity in the Toronto Star. That was the reason we booked and we were not disappointed.
Tony has a great love of Brooklyn, knows all the little bits of gossip and folklore. Being movie buffs we loved the movie references and clips that came along with the tour . . . and I could almost taste knishes.
It gave us a completely different perspective of NYC and Brooklyn. Would love to visit Coney Island in the summer time. I hope they are successful at revitalization and capturing this piece of the past. We have all seen too much urban renewal!
Tony - keep up the great work! |

| We thought there would be more pizza. Apparently one of the places was burned and temporarily out of business, but something might have been substituted...
I would recommend that a local, quickie map be provided of Brooklyn that is in sync with the points of interest. Since different tour guides (we had Paula, a kick) have different points of interest there would be extra, but that's okay -- it would be a good reason for folks to take the tour again.
We really did enjoy it -- well done and good luck getting into your house in Bay
Ridge, Paula. |

| FOUND THE PIZZA TOUR ON A GOOGLE SEARCH OF THINGS TO DO IN NYC. IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF OUR 4 DAY TRIP!! THE BUS WAS PRISTINE WITH LARGE WINDOWS FOR FULL VIEWING. PAULA WAS OUR TOUR GUIDE AND SHE WAS TERRIFIC. THERE IS NO DOUBT SHE KNOWS AND LOVES HER HOME TOWN OF BROOKLYN! COORDINATING FAMOUS MOVIE SCENES ON THE BUS MOVIE SCREEN AS IGOR DROVE US THROUGH THE ACTUAL STREET OF BROOKLYN WAS SO COOL. ALSO, I NEVER KNEW HOW MANY FAMOUS PEOPLE WERE BORN IN BROOKLYN. BUT THE PIZZA........OMG. IT WAS TO DIE FOR!! THICK OR THIN. IT DOES NOT MATTER. ABSOLUTELY DELISH! WE WERE SO STUFFED WE DID NOT HAVE DINNER UNTIL 10 PM THAT NIGHT. DO NOT MISS OUT ON THE PIZZA TOUR NEXT TIME YOU GO TO NYC.

| This was a terrific tour with just the right amount of stops, food (it was a Pizza tour afterall), timing, and of course Tony was fantastic. It was for this group of world travelers the best guided tour we have ever been on. Recommended without any reservations. |

| The tour exceeded my expectations. I loved the way Tony combined the history of Brooklynn with clips captured on the DVD presentation. Never a dull moment. |

| From start to finish our tour with Tony on Labor Day was fantastic. I can confidently tell my friends and family that you haven't been to New York if you haven't been to Brooklyn and you haven't been to Brooklyn if you haven't taken the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour. The history and the insight Tony gave us into this incredible borough were very informative. The pizzas, both the "round pie" and the "square pie" were great. I preferred the square and my wife liked the round better. We now have a list of movies we have to re-rent just to see the scenes shot in the locations Tony and Kenny took us to. We're looking forward to taking another tour with "youse guys" on our next trip to New York. |

I would recomend the "A Slice of Brooklyn" tour!

| The tour was interesting, informative, and delicious!! The bus accomodations were very comfortable and Kevin was an excellent driver. Our tour guide, Paula, was very knowledgable about the area and told us many interesting facts. She had a wonderful, laid back personality which made everyone very comfortable. The pizza from Girmaldi's and Spumoni Gardens was fantastic! The spumoni was not bad either. The tour was laid back and not at all perfectly scripted like some other tours can be. We enjoyed it very much! |

| Well done with lots of information and entertainment. The 4.5 hour tour just flew by. Our host Tony could not be more charming or helpful. |
