| It was my hubands birthday and he wanted to take the tour. We both just loved the pizza and the tour. I liked the way Toni would show us on the bus a short clipping of a movie and then he would pull up to the spot where it was filmed. It made it interesting to see the scene on screen and in person. I highly recomend this brooklyn pizza tour. You won't be disappointed. I am telling everyone about it! |

| First of all, Tony is great! A real Brooklyn pisan (sp?) He is very knowledgeable, the 12 seat bus was perfect for the group (10) and Tony knows Brooklyn....wow!!, does Tony know Brooklyn!
Grimaldi's is a treasure, having the best pizza that I've ever tasted and the spumoni at the second stop -- yum!
Checking out the Brooklyn Bridge from the park is a way to see the awesome skyline of Manhattan and learn about the construction of an American masterpiece.... and, Tony knows all about it.! Ask him a question and he'll give you the answer or he'll find the answer asap.
I loved going to Coney Island.....what a gorgeous view and Tony knows all about the history of the amusement rides and the snack stands that line the boardwalk.....what a great experience! You learn about all of the "secrets" associated with the place....and, then some!
We left and arrived back at precisely the time advertised and had a super time on tour.
I highly recommend this adventure. |

| One of the best tours I've ever taken! Tony is an amazing guide--his passion for Brooklyn and for pizza make this a memorable trip. We enjoyed seeing the different neighbourhoods and sites in Brooklyn, and hearing the stories associated with them. And eating the best pizza we've ever had! We are recommending this tour to all our friends -- and we are hoping that Tony's new tour is ready soon! |

| This exceeded all my expectations. In addition to two great pizza experiences, I learned a lot about Brooklyn (more than I ever could have done on my own). The movie clips gave a "relatablility" to many of the locations. Tony is very knowledgable, personable, and professional. If you have any interest in NYC beyond Manhattan, don't miss this. |

| This tour was such great fun and informative. Although we have visited New York several times, we never had the chance to learn about Brooklyn. This tour gave that information, plus the pizza. Our group preferred the Sicilian pizza.
We would recommend this tour for young and old. |

| I have travelled all over the world and been on more tours than I can count. This was one of the best. It is professional, informative and entertaining. Tony is fantastic and it was just a great way to spend a day in New York City. |

| Well constructed tour with loads of detailed information -presented by a tour guide
obviously proud of his native Brooklyn. Was charmed and would do it again.
Only thing less not scoring 5-star was the vehicle. The small bus - I believe based
on a Ford F series truck - loud and bumpy ; but this was easy to overlook given the
overall tour excellence. |

| My friends and I enjoyed learning all of the interesting information that Tony shared about Brooklyn. All the details of Tony's tour are exceptionally well-planned, and he is a gracious and accommodating host. It's clear that he enjoys his work and takes great pride in sharing all kinds of interesting facts about his hometown of Brooklyn. The pizza samplings were terrific, and it was quite a treat to enjoy two basic versions of pizza that were made from the freshest of ingredients - - in other words, the real thing! |

| My husband is a pizzaholic. When the Today Show ran a segment about Tony and his Brooklyn Pizza tour I decided that would be a great Christmas present for my husband. He was a little skeptical about going on the tour but was very happy he went. Not only was the pizza great, the tour was great also. Tony includes a little bit of everything on this Brooklyn tour: humor, history, trivia, film strips, neighborhoods, parks as well as pizza. We had a wonderful day and highly recommend this tour and not just for pizza lovers. We can't wait until he puts together another tour of Brooklyn so we can see more of the NY Borough. |
