| I went on a Friday with a group of friends, some local New Yorkers, some visitors. We all did not know what to expect, except knowing we would be eating amazing pizza. The tour blew us away! From the movie highlights to all the neighborhoods of Brooklyn Paula described, we had a great time.
She was energetic, enthusiastic, and most of all FUN! Paula was a delight to be around. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to know more about Brooklyn, wants the best slice in NY and likes to enjoy themselves. I cant wait to take my mom on it when she visits from FL!!
Thanks,

| First off a couple of my friends and I went on this tour to learn more about Brooklyn and of course have a litttle pizza. 2 of us live in NYC and we had a friend visiting so we thought why not take this tour? We left with a ton of knowledge from our guide Paula and a lot of pizza to take home! This is great for anyone visiting or anyone that hasn't left Manhattan yet!! It was such a great tour that Paula led us on, we were also engagd and in awe the whole time. L&D-WOW, my favorite pizza ever!!! So much fun touring in our van we didn't even mind that it was a bit chilly outside. Anyone should go on this if they can, it's run by a family owned business and they care about you. 4 1/2 hours flew by and we didn't even want to eat for the rest of the day!! Paula you were great and I can't wait to take the Christmas Lights Tour!! |

| This tour was fantastic! My friend and I had a great time. I live in NYC, but I would never have made it out to all of those places in Brooklyn on my own. The stop in Coney Island was especially fun. The tour guide did a great job of explaining the history of Brooklyn and of New York's best pizzerias, and she even told us a few exciting Mob stories. Pertinent movie clips were seamlessly incorporated, as well (the van had mouted TVs). It was pretty cool to get to see, for example, John Travolta walking down a street in "Saturday Night Fever" and then get to drive down that actual road in Brooklyn. It was also amazing to see the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges from so many angles.
The pizza was absolutely phenomenal, as well. Just don't make the mistake of eating breakfast before this tour. You want to go on it hungry, believe me.
Have fun!

| I was under the impression that we would visit more pizzerias but starting at Grimaldis and finishing off at L&B's was perfect. Maria was an awesome tour guide! |

| The tour itself was very interesting. We had been staying in Brooklyn for a few days, but didn't get an idea of what it was really like until we went on the tour. The pizza was good...a little too filling (four slices of pizza in like two hours time!). The only complaint was the "Hawaii-5-0" type of music that they played on the whole way back to Manhattan...something more appropriate woulda been nice. Except for that , it was great tour! |

| What a wonderful way to experience a taste of NYC! A great tour filled with facts, history, trivia, tasty food, and new found friends. Our tour guide Paula, gave us a true insiders view of all the places you've heard about, and have seen in films and NY stories. She was an added treat!
The food was plentiful and delicious. Tucked away and popular with all those in the know, it was too tasty for words! The restaurant staff were all friendly and quick to answer questions. Pizza like you've never had. Only in NYC! We never would have experienced this extraordinary pizza without this tour, and the wonderful folks who organized this trip!
This is our second year of participating in the tours and have yet to be disappointed! Don't miss out on this great NY extravaganza. I've already recommended it to my family and friends who will be visiting the city soon!
We loved it! |

| Our group of six family members and friends (female, ages 40-65) really enjoyed this tour. Our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, professional and FUN! She entertained us for 4.5 hours and we're so glad we chose this event. The tour bus was SO comfortable and nice and the Pizza was really good! They took us to areas we would not have seen if we had missed this. Loved the connections shown in the video clips. |
