| We 3 and one half Italians from RI were delighted with the whole experience. The coach bus, the itinerary, the pizza and especially our very personable and knowlegable guide Tony were AAA first class! (We love our shirts too)
We can't wait to book the "wise guys" tour!
If possible, please have Tony contact me about tour tickets for our large Gala held in November. Ask him to email Barbara at bducharme@lifespan.org.
I will spread the word to 800 RI participants at our Fantasy Ball Fundraiser Gala on November 1, 2008.
Thanks for a most enjoyable day-

| Tony is charming with a sense of humor and not bad to look at either. All the ingredients for the perfect tour guide.
The bus was very comfortable with video screens to show us many short clips of films,etc. as we drove by the neighborhoods that they were shot in. This made the trip.
We all enjoyed the journey very much. |

| We travelled to to NYC in a party of eight and every one of us loved Tony's tour! The pizza was amazing and the tour of Brooklyn fascinating. We learned so much about Brooklyn's history. We loved watching the video clips of movies we've seen and then comparing them to the actual locations. All of my friends wanted me to highly recommend the tour to others and when returning to New York, all will definitely book this tour again. We are very interested in other tours Tony is preparing, as well. Thanks Tony! We'll see you again! |

| Our friends went on this tour last year, and they raved about the tour and Tony. Four of us from Jersey, signed up for "A Slice of Brroklyn Pizza Tour" on June 27, 2008. We have all been on many tours throughout America and abroad. You could not find a tour guide with more knowledge, enthusiasm, and humor than Tony Muia. The video montages that illustrated the various movie scenes that were filmed in Brooklyn really added to the visual effect. Rather than just showing the movie location, Tony provided actual movie footage of each particular site. That was really fun. We learned about the history of Brooklyn and the variety of cultures and housing. The pizza stops were excellent. We sampled Margarita and Sicilian Pizzas...yummy! Tony's enthusiasm was the best selling point of his tour. At the conclusion of his tour, our group of four got off the bus and walked back to the Brooklyn Bridge and walked over to Brookyln and back again to Manhattan. I have always wanted to walk over the bridge. I had a greater appreciation of the architecture and history of the bridge because of this tour. We took lots of pictures and shared them with many friends through e-mail, recommending this fun tour. |

| We were out for 10 days in NYC and DC and if we had gone on this tour and nothing else, it would have been a great vacation. Nuff said. |

| I had taken this tour 3 years ago -- one of Tony's very first times out. Since then I've recommended it to many friends who were visiting New York and they were all equally enthusiastic.
It's always a delight to have a guide who so obviously loves his subject and knows his stuff. We especially loved hearing about the various "connected" inhabitants of Brooklyn past and present. Tying in the scenes from movies is also very effective and interesting.
Oh yes, we also loved the pizza and ice cream (yum).
We're definitely looking forward to going again.

| My friends and I have been on many food tours through New York City, and this was one of the best! I would definitely go on another tour with this company. Tony was both knowledgeable and engaging. |

| This is so much fun!!! This was my second Brooklyn Pizza Tour with Tony and I can't say enough great things about it. He's very entertaining, informative, and the pizza is the best. I can't wait to try out the Brooklyn Lights tour the next time in New York for the holidays. I've recommended the pizza tour to a number of friends and everyone has loved it. |

| From beginning to end this tour was wonderful! It was relaxed, not rushed , and filled with wonderful stories, information and historical facts.
Tony's 'real deal' knowledge and personality are right on. Not only did we get to eat and savor great pizza and spumoni, we saw Brooklyn through the eyes of Tony, a native, whose love of this area is infectious. His capacity for fun and adventure knew no bounds when he rode the 'Cyclone' at Coney Island with others on the tour.
We recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get away from the tourist trappings of NYC (not that there's anything wrong with that).
He is developing other tours. Can't wait to join him for whatever tours he offers in the future.
Tony Muia is the real deal and don't you 'forgetta about it'! |
