| This slice of our New York trip was the best. Tony is informative, humorous, and the most likeable person you'll ever meet. Excellent Pizza, interesting sites and fantastic photo opportunities make this event a "Must Do". |

| We came from Italy and one of friends recommended the tour. It was great, Tony is great. We loved the pizza from Spumoni Garden, different than home.
We also went on the Christmas Lights tour which despite the rain was a beautiful evening. We do not get to experience such things in Italy. Molto Grazie Tony, Molto Grazie Brooklyn!!!! |

| Fantastic ! Myself and my wife were in NYC for a long weekend celebrating my wife's 50th birthday and this was a highlight of the weekend. We saw an article many months ago in the London Times and decided to 'go for it'. We were very glad we did. The 4.5 hours seemed to fly with never one moment of 'what am I doing here ?'. Toni is 'da man'; informative, humerous and very entertaining...is there anything he doesn't know about Brooklyn. Sitting in Grimaldis, eating pizza, drinking Brooklyn Lager and listening to Frank Sinatra ? As Toni would say 'you couldn't write this stuff' ! We feel as though we have seen things many folk only see in films or on telly e.g. Coney Island boardwalk, the road in the car chase in The French Connection and many, many more. And the Pizza is fantastic ! If you are going to NYC you MUST do this ! You will not be dissapointed. |

| This was the 2nd time we've been on this tour and it was equally as brilliant as the 1st time! The tour guide, Tony, is friendly, has great knowledge to share about Brooklyn and most importantly - knows his pizza! You get to see some lovely and interesting neighbourhoods and it's great that you also see Coney Island and the famous boardwalk. The tour is relaxed, fun and very informative - brilliant for something different to do. We enjoyed the tour so much that we have already booked to do it again in May 2008. We're also hoping that the neighbourhood tour will be up and running by then - if its anything like as good as the pizza tour then Tony has another hit on his hands! Our only regret is that we were slightly too early to do the Holiday lights tour - gives us an excuse to go again next December! |

| My husband and I highly recommend this tour as it is different, interesting and so well done. Tony is passionate about his "Brooklyn" and it shows. He loves what he does!!
It's a great way to see a borough you probably wouldn't make an effort to see on your own. The history, movie scenes, and celebrety list add colour, while the Pizza adds the flavour!!

| This tour was absolutely fantastic. Tony was THE perfect tour guide, knowledgeable without being pushy. All the sites we visited were interesting and the Pizza was delicious. Coney Island boardwalk was my favourite place - shame it was raining! It was just long enough at 4.5 hours, although it took a while to get everyone out of the first Pizza restaurant! The size of the group was good, not too many. The whole thing exceeded our expectations and then some!
Tony was SUPERB, We will definitely be back for more in the future.

| I've just returned from a four day trip to New York and the highlight of my stay was the Slice of Pizza Tour of Brooklyn. Our tour guide was so entertaining and the experience so much fun that the four and a half hour tour just flew by. His monalogue filled with interesting tid bits, personal antedotes as well as humour brought Brooklyn to life in a very real way ! Of note were the film clips showing movies like Saturday Night Fever which actually rolled as we drove down the very streets were the scenes were filmed. It was a touch of show biz at it's best. As for the pizza...well ...also unforgettable. |

| my wife and i thought tony was absolutely marvellous. as he was brooklyn born and bred his enthusiasm and pride was evident in the way he spoke. the film clips were also great and what a difference in not having the usual pedestrian streotype guide taught from a book
we loved our 5 hours and have no hesitation in recommending
say hello to tony from his 2 jewish guests from friday |
