| I love New York and have been on many, many tours. This one is the best! Tony, the tour leader, is knowledgeable and humorous. Because he has lived in Brooklyn his entire life, he provides insights that only locals can. And the pizza---WOW!
I highly recommend A Slice of Brooklyn. It is great!! |

This was fun!!!!

| I'm from CT, currently living in GA and my Mom is a snowbird (CT & FL). Neither of us bother to eat pizza down South - it just doesn't compare to the Northeast. She saw an article in her FL paper the same day I saw the Today Show spot, so we decided to go on the tour while we were in CT for Thanksgiving. I had been to Brooklyn once (in the early 80's), and she had never been, so it was nice to abandon our CT ideas of what Brooklyn is like. It was an excellent day. The pizza was great and Tony provided lots of history and interesting information about the area. |

| 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!!

| Our group consisted of 4 sisters and 2 sisters-in-law. Two of us lived in NYC about 15 years ago. All of the sisters and sisters-in-law have been coming up to NYC the same weekend every year for over 15 years. We always look for something new to do each year. This year we decided to try the Slice of Brooklyn tour after one sister saw it on the Today Show. It is every bit and more than the reviews incdicate. Tony makes the tour with his personal account of Brooklyn, having grown up there. Not only is it a great historical tour, but the pizza is out of this world. As good as it gets.
Highly recommended - even for those who live or have lived in NY - a ton o' fun!!! |

| I also speak for the other 5 people in our party when I say this was best best tour we have ever been on. It was the highlight of our vacation and I recommend this tour to anyone visiting NYC. Tony is a wonderful tour-guide and his local knowledge is unsupassable. What a great guy!! He is witty and fun and his descriptions of local attractions and little anecdotes make for a wonderful day. The pizza restaurants have the most authentic and best tasting pizza we have ever had. Of course, you could go by yourself to exerience the pizza, but it is Tony the man who makes this adventure what it is. We want to wish him the very best of luck with the new and exciting tours he has lined up. We will certainly recommend Tony and his tour company to anyone we know who will travel to New York in the future and plan to revisit the Tony Experience next time we come to the Big Apple. |

| My friend and I have been telling everyone about the Brooklyn Pizza Tour. It was the PERFECT thing to do on a cold, wintery day because you spend part of the time on the very comfy and cozy luxury coach interspersed with stops to eat and sightsee. I liked the Grimaldi's pizza more than any pizza I've ever tried and I really enjoyed seeing Coney Island too. Worth every penny and I would highly recommend it!

| Even though I have been to Manhattan many times (twice a year for many years), I never had the courage to explore Brooklyn. We rode in a very nice bus and Tony, the own/er/guide, was great. He provided us with a glimpse of the true flavor of Brooklyn. We ate Pizza, drove through some beautiful neighborhoods, learned the history, and left feeling like Tony was a friend.
The tour is not fast paced, but very informative and great for those who are looking for something "different" to do. |
