| We all loved the tour and saw a part of NYC that we never would have seen. I recommend this tour to anybody interested in seeing something outside Manhattan, especially if you love Pizza. |

| I've just returned from a four day trip to New York and the highlight of my stay was the Slice of Pizza Tour of Brooklyn. Our tour guide was so entertaining and the experience so much fun that the four and a half hour tour just flew by. His monalogue filled with interesting tid bits, personal antedotes as well as humour brought Brooklyn to life in a very real way ! Of note were the film clips showing movies like Saturday Night Fever which actually rolled as we drove down the very streets were the scenes were filmed. It was a touch of show biz at it's best. As for the pizza...well ...also unforgettable. |

| This tour was recommended to me by a friend who had taken it last summer and it was blast. You learn so much about Brooklyn and get to eat great pizza along the way. One of the best features was the movie clips that show all the places in Brooklyn that I've seen in the movies for years. I highly recommend this tour for any and everyone!!! |

| my wife and i thought tony was absolutely marvellous. as he was brooklyn born and bred his enthusiasm and pride was evident in the way he spoke. the film clips were also great and what a difference in not having the usual pedestrian streotype guide taught from a book
we loved our 5 hours and have no hesitation in recommending
say hello to tony from his 2 jewish guests from friday |

| This tour is SO much more than eating pizza (as good as the pizza stops were! ) With a vry comfortable bus, a creative route, and the owner/tour guide who was born and raised in Brooklyn mywife and I learned all there was to know about Brooklyn: Its history, waves of immigration and how they changed the neighborhoods, people of note:politicians to underworld types to entertainment and sports notables. A creative addition was to screen areas as we drove thru them e.g. driving under the EL at the spot where the chase scene for "French Connection was filmed and showing the scene on dropdown units. The bus get-offs were well planned to walk parks, eat pizza, see Coney Island, etc. Tony couldn't be better mixing in depth history with personal anecdotes and a wonderful sense of humor and a focus on comfort and service. You will really enjoy this tour! |

| We took our 9 employees on an end of year trip to NYC and everyone of them said out of all the things we did (Empire State Building,Statue of Liberty and Times Square) The Slice of Brooklyn tour was their favorite. Tony provided more inside information about the places and people of Brooklyn that made it much more interesting than your average tour plus when you have a group of teenagers it sure does not hurt to have pizza to eat on top of that. I would not hesitate to recomend the Slice of Brooklyn Tour to anyone that was making a trip to NYC. Thank you Tony From the gang at the Udder Side in Jonesville, Michigan Dave Bauer |

| 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! |

Great tour - thanks Tony!

| Fantastic pizza, good company, and a very knowledgable and funny guide. The way the film clips play as you pass a particular street or building is very clever! I personally think one more restaurant could have been added to make it a real pizza crawl - not that we went away hungry! Some fascinating stories and anecdotes along the way. Basically a really great day out - thanks Tony. Look forward to seeing you next time we're in town |
