| We had a great day on this tour which is more a tour of interesting Brooklyn neighborhoods than a stuff-yourself-with-pizza tour, although the pizza was certainly delicious. Paula was a fun and energetic guide who kept us entertained the whole four hours - her love for and knowledge of her hometown borough was very apparent. As a bonus we walked right by Justin Timberlake filming an SNL skit in DUMBO! I absolutely recommnend the tour for both tourists and Manhattanites who never visit Brooklyn. |

| My sister-in-law and I enjoyed this tour immensely! We were in NYC for 5 days and just wanted to do anything and everything....found this tour on the web and decided to do it. So glad we did. I am particularly fascinated with the places where movies were filmed and our very informed guide, Paula showed me...and many other very interesting spots in usually-forgotten Brooklyn. The pizza was great as well. Paula is to be commended by her superior for a job very well done! ~~ A Marylander |

| Could not have had a nicer host as Paula was. The trip was well planned out, very informative and interesting. Food was excellent. What I enjoyed was not having to think about where to go and what to see, and how to get there. It was all done for you, and the bus was very comfortable. I have been on other tour groups and companies, but I must say that this was one, was far the best. Well worth the price of the tickets, and most certainly would not hesitate to encourage others to take this trip. The friend that was with me, did not normally eat pizza, but after eating at Spumoni Gardens she changed her mind, although there is no way she will be able to find pizza like that, here in Georgia. |

| This experience was amazing. The tour was interesting, exciting and entertaining. Each of the stops was enjoyable and worthwhile. Both locations have great food and there was plenty to eat. I was worried that maybe we would get one slice each, but the pizza just kept on coming to the table! Everyone walked away full!
Grimaldis always has a line, they had tables reserved for us!
As everyone has stated, Paula was great and did an amazing job!
Dont even think twice, explore Brooklyn and book this tour! |

| We saw many nice places of Brooklyn, very surprising. The group had 20 people and a good tour guide, Paula. She did her job very well!
For us europeans the first pizza (Grimaldi's) was very good, the second was interesting ;-) Like a thick bread with a good tomato-sauce on it...
A tip: don't have a big breakfast before the trip, you can eat as much pizza as you like! Visiting Coney Islang was also good, because there is not very much to see there and the way from Manhattan with the subway is quite long...
The tour is not cheap, but worth the money! |

| I thought the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour gave a great overview of an area I had never been to before. Paula, our tour guide, was friendly, energetic, accomodating and very knowledgeable about all aspects of the tour and made the tour fun and refreshing. It was hard to believe it was 4 1/2 hours long. I like how the tour combined the movie scenes with the areas we drove through and the synchronization of the two was great. Both pizza stops were great. It was nice to sample the 2 different styles and the quantities were great as well. I went expecting 1 slice at each location so I was pleasantly surprised that at least 2 slices were available at each location! I would definitely recommend this tour to friends. |

| 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. |

| This is a great tour, the pizza at Grimaldi's is amazing and worth the entire tour. You'll enjoy brooklyn as they match up movie scenes with brooklyn sites. Seriously good time. |
