| I would reccommend this tour because it is a great way to see an area that you may not otherwise see. The movie clips of Brooklyn were a treat and I would suggest they actually include a DVD of the clips.
The pizza was so so, nothing really out of the ordinary.
The guide was Tony's cousin and she was very personable.
I thought it was slightly over priced yet I did enjoy it alot. |

| We enjoyed are Slice of Brooklyn tour not only for the great pizza but also learning about the area. The touring bus was very comfortable with television easy to see which brought the sightseeing to life with clips of many movie made in Brooklyn. Would have enjoyed one more stop for pizza but otherwise it was a great time. |

| The Slice of Brooklyn tour was a highlight of our recent trip to NYC. Not only did we enjoy great pizza and spumoni, but we also got a chance to really get to see and learn about Brooklyn. The tour guides were wonderful, and quintessentially Brooklyn/Italian not to mention charming and entertaining. The montages of video coupled with viewing the actual places where movies and tv scense were shot made the trip. We would not hesitate to recommend the tour. Our only regret was that we did not have more room to consume even more pizza. |

| This tour was a great value. It was long enough to show us a lot of interesting places in Brooklyn and on the Manhattan side as we started and ended the tour. The bus we travelled in was very nice. The driver would let us off at one of the tour stops and pick us up a long the way-no need for us to walk back. The pizzerias were good. It depends on what you like. Most of us liked the first stop with the coal fired pizza and were so-so on the second stop with the Sicilian style pizza. The tour guides -Tony (very knowledgable) and his cousin were excellent although they could have benefitted from a speaking system and microphone when we were off the bus at some sites. Stand close since the traffic/subway noise can be loud at times, especially near the Brooklyn bridge. All iin all -highly recommended. |

| Tony and his entire family were a joy to be with. We had the best experience of our entire vacation in New York City. The tour lasted a little bit longer than planned but we could have gone on for hours listening to the stories that were told and seeing all the sights of Brooklyn. We would book the tour again and again. |

| We had heard 'on the grapevine' that this was a great tour, not just for great food but for the quality of the tour of Brooklyn and the fun had. Interestingly it was not offered by travel agents here (Queensland, Australia) and I had to go on the internet to find out more. I was impressed by the detail on the website and the reviews posted. I booked on line easily and was also impressed by the details given answering all questions commonly asked. The tour was professional, fun, informative, and educational along with a comfortable, new bus to get us round, video clips on the bus, and excellent commentary by Tony and his family. This combined with excellent pizza and we tried the spumoni, (a treat to die for) all made for a tour to be recommended highly, great use of time in New York, and value for money. |

| The Brooklyn slice of pizza tour is more than pizza. It is a slice of Brooklyn's history and some of its neighborhoods. Tony (the tour leader) is Brooklyn born and bred and his love for Brooklyn is evident. The tour includes stops where movie scenes were shot (and Tony shows the scene on the bus tv monitors) along with a stop on Coney Island and a walk on the boardwalk.
All in all, this New Orleanian enjoyed it very much. |

| The Brooklyn tour was well managed and enjoyable. The bus was new and comfortable. The guides were humorous, energetic, enthusiastic. The pizza was terrific. We only wish that we could have seen more of Brooklyn's famous neighborhoods, but the hours were filled and fun. Thanks! |
