| We had a great experience. The pizza was excellent! The sicillian pizza was the best I've ever had, by far. Tony was informative and had a lot of knowledge of Brooklyn. He put together movie and TV clips of scenes of the places we toured. The mini coach was clean and comfortable. Definetely a five star experience. |

| The Slice of Brooklyn tour was terrific, Tony, the tour owner and guide knows everything you want to know about Brooklyn since he was born and raised there. The next day, we met friends who had grown up in Brooklyn and they were amazed at how much we now knew about Brooklyn, as well as all the locations we visited. Of course, the pizzas were the absolute best. My wife and I highly recommend this great way to spend an afternoon.

| fifty trips to NY (over forty years), and we have never been to Brooklyn. Tour should follow route "East River to Coney Island, and back again". One pizza on the way down, and one pizza on the way back. Should include one ride on the ferris wheel at turn-around time. Four hours is sufficient. Should stop half-hour each at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. Event might end with a final walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to return to Manhattan, with obvious directions to anywhere from that end of the bridge. Non-walkers could continue in bus to starting place. Define the focus: Brooklyn or Pizza....probably pizza, since nobody would be interested in Brooklyn without the pizza gimmick. Will tell everybody we know about the tour, and encourage them to take it. Great idea of having the film clips...and the music |

| Great way to learn about and experience Brooklyn. The pizza was excellent and plentiful in both places. However, it was a bit pricey and we were disappointed with our tour guide. Tony, the owner who came highly recommended was MIA that day. |

| My husband and I took this tour. We live in CT and have spent a lot of time in Manhattan, but never ventured into Brooklyn before. (JFK doesn't count!) The meeting stop was easy to reach by subway. The bus was comfortable with enough leg room for my husband's long legs. It was a lovely sunny day, so the views were spectacular. Brooklyn is a fabulous vantage point from which to see lower Manhattan. Our tour guide, Paula was fun and informative. She was obviously very proud of "her" borough and was right when she said we will come back again. This tour was a good introduction to Brooklyn with some delicious pizza along the way. My husband liked the thin-crust at Grimaldi's while I preferred the thick-crust at L & B. We took this tour on a whim, but will definitely be back for another round when we have visitors in town. In the meantime, we will be exploring Brooklyn on our own now that we have a good starting point. Thank you to Paula and Kevin, the driver, for a fun and delicious tour! |

| As a New York I am reluctant to go on Tours. I must say not only was this great it was Paulaq who made it one of the most enjoyable Tours I have ever been on. I am now spoiled when it comes to Tours.
Keep up the good work |

| It was an outstanding tour. Tony our guide was informed, enthusiastic, full of energy, an allover fantastic guide. A Brooklynite to the core, he exuded love of the borough. Coming originally from The Bronx, I saw Brooklyn in an entirely diferent light at the end of the tour. I definitely will recommend it to others. it was a perfect day, foodwise, guidewise and weatherwise. |
