| A well organised blend of interesting information, mini-walking tours, linking places with film clips and good quality pizza. An excellent tour guide (Paula) who was not "over the top" and a quality bus driver. Overall, very good value. |

| I had read about the slice of Brooklyn Pizza tour online on trip advisor. After reading the reviews on here I thought I sounded like a great way to learn about pizza and sightsee.
Paula was our great host on this trip and i found her to be very knowledgable and funny.
The best thing about the tour was being able to bypass the line of people waiting for pizza and head straight to your table reserved for you.
As you travelled along Paula told you about the history you were passing and showed video clips from movies that were filmed there.
Along the way you were able to get off the bus and take photos.
The day we took the tour was a very cold day so it was a great way to spend the day on a bus and eating pizza in warm pizza places.
This tour is a great way to see Brooklyn. |

| My wife and I enjoyed this tour a lot. The tour included lots of interesting sites and nice meals. Showing parts of films with Brookling sights as we passed by them was a most. Not to mention Paola, that was an excelent guide. |

| Tony was a great tour guide with a wealth of information to share with us about his native Brooklyn. I especially liked how we were shown the clips of movie scenes of areas we were passing and also the wonderful Sicilian Pizza. Highly recommended! |

| After reading all these positive reviews all over the net i was expecting something more than that.
I think that the idea of such a tour is a good one and it gives a newbie a chance to see Brooklyn through the eyes of someone that knows the area. Our guide, Paula, did a good job to show us around Brooklyn and tried to entertain us but i think that at the end was obvious that 4,5 hrs are more than enough.
they could squeeze the schedule a little bit and still offer a decent tour. i like the first pizzeria, grimaldi's, but the other one wasn't sth special. the most important aspect was those little details of brooklyn's history that Paula shared with us rather than the pizza.
i think that it didn't worth the money and certainly the time could be less as the actual tour needed 2,5-3hrs max.
still, i'd recommend it as an experience but i'd ask for a better deal. times are difficult and those guys have huge margins. |

| This tour was truly one of the highlights of our trip, and we saw Broadway shows, plays and went to the Met, so that's really saying something. It was great to discover a side of NY we never had before and to go to places we never would have been, otherwise. The pizzas were EXCELLENT, specially L&B's and our fabulous tour guide *Paula* was very attentive, knowledgeable, witty and caring of all our needs. Thank you Slice of Brooklyn, we had a WONDERFUL time.
Much love from Puerto Rico...

| We did the Slice of Pizza Tour in November and absolutely loved it. Paula, our guide was absolutely fantastic! The bus was comfortable, the video footage was great and the local tales added colour.... and then there was the pizza.... We will be back! |

| The tour is an excellent introduction to Brooklyn. It was very well organized and informative. We traveled on a very comfortable bus. Our guide Paula was very friendly and knowledgeable. Just the right amount of interesting facts about Brooklyn. And pizza at both places was tasty and quite different. |
