Very Good Value for a bus tour.

| This was a great way to get an efficient overview of Brooklyn if you are on a short holiday. The pizza was excellent at both locations. Both very different and since we are not big meat eaters it was good to get pizza that focused on good quality ingredients. Just don't eat too much at the first location or you won't be able to enjoy the second location as much. We enjoyed the fact that it was a smaller bus and not like the big tours that take forever to herd people on and off. Paula was enthusiastic and provided lots of interesting tidbits about the neighborhoods that we toured. She also mentioned alternatives for getting back to do an explore on your own without a guided tour. Very good job and would recommend to others. |

| My husband and I did the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza tour last weekend and we cannot say enough good things about it. What a pleasant surprise - not only did we get to eat the best pizza ever - we learned more about Brooklyn then we expected. Tony is just fantastic. He takes pride in Brooklyn and I am glad we had the opportunity to share in his enthusiasm! |

| The new bus, the area, the pizza, and Tony made our day. I mean "fuhgettaboudit." This tour is one of our best experiences in New York. When we heard about the tour on the Today Show, I didn't get too excited. We laughed, ate, and became immersed in the wonderful culture of Brooklyn. Unlike the scripted monotone tour guides we were expecting, Tony is vibrant, enthusiastic straight shooter who tells it like he sees it. He is knowledgeable and entertaining with stories that reflect his love of Brooklyn and its history. His attitude and obivious love for his home is so sincere that at the end of the tour you wish you were from Brooklyn. |

| The Pizza Slice of Brooklyn is an absolute "must do" when visiting (or living in) New York. Tony is a gem. He not only is a very warm, friendly person but also his knowledge of Brooklyn (and the pizza) is amazing. We loved the tour (the highlight of our trip and I'm not even a pizza lover!) and have recommended it to the concierge of the Manhattan Club.

| After having been to our favorite city, NYC and seeing all the touristy sights, it was nice to ride around and have an "insider" from Brooklyn share tales of the neighborhood. THis is our 2nd Zerve tour and we recommend them to everyone. Our guide, Tony, was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable about the history and background of all the places we visited on our tour. The film clips played as we rode down the same location and it was a lot of fu n. A very nice way to spend an afternoon and of course,,,,,Grimaldi's pizzia...what more could you want. |

| Great guide for our slice of Brooklyn tour. Many fun facts and even though we had horrible weather ( rain all day ) we had a great time. Paula did not mind answering any questions and was very thorough. The Pizza was the best we have ever had anywhere!! We will take another tour by this company! |

| Take this tour! Tony has done his homework and even if you are a Brooklyn native, you'll learn something you didn't know about the borough. Tony plays music that has to do with Brooklyn during the tour and he shows lots of clips of movies made in Brooklyn while you are RIGHT THERE where the movie was made. It is so AWESOME! He peppers the tour with historic facts, you see the mansions in Bay Ridge, you learn about the hundreds of celebrities who were born in Brooklyn, and you get to go to Coney Island. It's an amazing tour that would be a bargain at twice the price. And, the pizza is WONDERFUL, too! Be sure and have the spumoni at L&B Spumoni Gardens--it's delicious. (I am not Tony's mom.) |

| The whole day, from start to finish, was so great! The pizza was absolutely delicious!
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. |

| My husband and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting -- or just living -- in the NY area. We don't typically like bus tours, but this one's different. It provides a nice combination of riding and walking, and, when you are riding on the bus, you are always entertained, either by Tony or the movie clips he plays to augment the tour. And, speaking of Tony, he MAKES the tour. He, obviously, loves his home town, and he does everything possible to make sure you do, too. Although the pizza you get to eat on the tour is, in fact, delicious, the information you learn about Brooklyn is just as "tasty." If you're looking for something to do the next time you're in NY, don't miss this tour! |
