| This was our first trip to New York City and the Brooklyn Pizza Tour was our first adventure. What a great way to start the week. We learned a lot about Brooklyn and had the best pizza ever. Tony & Uncle Louie kept us entertained the whole trip with their knowledge of the area and their humor. We have told many of our friends & family about this tour and about the pizza. We are looking forward to coming back to New York and joining Tony on the "Wise Guys" tour....especailly if there is more pizza.
Thank you for a great adventure. |

| This tour was the highlight of our trip. Tony is so passionate and knowledgeable about Brooklyn and Pizza. Everyone in our family enjoyed every second of this. The sights of Brooklyn were great, and the pizza was amazing. People who were not on the tour were lined up down the street to get into Grimaldi's but with Tony's tour we walked right in. You won't find better pizza anywhere, take it from me having grown up in NY and moved to LA. At Spumoni Gardens, you have to save room to buy some spumoni. Amazing!
Tony does a fantastic job, he loves what he does and I will recommend to everyone who visits NY to go on this tour. |

| My friend and I, both originally from NYC, decided to take the Brooklyn Pizza Tour because we love pizza and really had only slight knowledge of Brooklyn. We were blown away. Your host, TONY, is great. He is funny, kind, intelligent and a real gentlemen. He took care of each of us as if we were his best friends and believe me we felt like we were best friends by the end of the tour.
Tony not only knows about pizza, he is a wealth of information on Brooklyn neighborhoods, the Brooklyn Bridge, Coney Island and every movie that was ever filmed in his home town. This is a "don't miss" tour that you and any family or friends would enjoy. It is a taste of Brooklyn that makes you want more. We plan to tour with Tony the next time we visit NYC, which we both hope will be soon.
A REAL WINNER!!! |

| This tour was the most interesting and informative of any tour we have taken, and one of us was 15, so that is saying alot!
Uncle Louie and Tony were awesome! My girls loved the pizza, but even more liked the history that was not presented in a "school" manner.
We have already told friends about the tour and will definitely book another tour upon our return to the area. |

| Tony is one of the best tour guides for any tour I've taken in NYC. You can tell he is crazy about his beloved Brooklyn. This tour gave a good sampling of Brooklyn and he spoke of his city enthusiastically. I would never have seen parts of Brooklyn that he took us in. The bus was new, super nice and air conditioned. All our group enjoyed the pizza at both stops. I also got to know some of my fellow tourist as we sat together at the pizza parlors. This tour is a MUST for any NYC tourist wanting to see what's outside Manhattan. |

| I went on this tour with my college age daughter, and we both had a super time! Tony was an excellent guide, being both personable and informed. He had many funny stories and showed scenes from movies when we were actually "on location" in the bus. It was great to see where John Travolta walked down the street strutting his stuff in Saturday Night Fever, and the pizza shop he stopped at, plus other areas where famous chase scenes were filmed in other movies! There were two pizza stops where we got to indulge in both Sicilian and Neopolitan styles, and topped it off with spumoni! We especially enjoyed another stop at Coney Island, where we got to walk on the boardwalk and see the Cyclone and Wonder Wheel, along with the other "endangered" amusements. We also got to see Nathan's and the beach, and to take photos of this historical area. There was a stop under the Brooklyn Bridge area, which gave us spectacular views of Manhattan, and an excursion around some of the more expensive homes in Brooklyn. All in all, we had a great day, and everyone on the trip seemed highly pleased with the tour. You can't help but love the sights, the food, and Tony! We'd love to go again. |

| This tour is everything it promises to be. The tour guide was funny, informative, friendly. He has it down to a science and everything ran smoothly and timely.. I think it's good value for the money and highly recommend this tour.
It is the second time I have taken the tour and each time was perfect. |

| Our family of four had a wonderful time on this tour. Tony and Uncle Louie were fabulous hosts and the tour was worth every penny! I have told all my friends this is a MUST when visiting NYC. The food was great, the commentary was funny and informative, the movie clips were great to watch and even our teenagers (14 & 17) had a great time. |
