| You must take this tour. You will not be disappointed. The 4 1/2 hours just flew by.
Tony and Danny were great. My grandchildren and I are still talking about it. It was the highlight of our mini-vacation to NY.
Their PopPop wants to experience the "A slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour". I'm certain we'll return! |

| I thought Brooklyn was people saying dis and dat and something about the Underworld. I was in for a pleasant surprise on Tony's tour. We covered great areas, diversified and famous, and Tony was the best commentator and leader! I'd recommend this tour to my friends and neighbors. |

| After seeing A Slice of Brooklyn Piazza Tour on the Today Show I immediately knew I wanted to do it. . My family was wary but I persisted and happily recieved it as a birthday gift. . It was all I expected it to be and more. Tony was the star of the tour for without his bountiful knowledge and warm personality the tour wouldn't have been so special. The pizzas were amazing especially Grimaldi's but don't count out L&B Spumoni Gardens. The sauce was to die for and try the spumoni for it is nothing like the packaged kind you get in the supermarket.Oh and how could I forget the sites of Brooklyn. Who gets to go under the Brooklyn Bridge, walk the historic Coney Island Boardwalk, and get the local gossip and lore. Tony does Brooklyn with humor and class and shows his love of his bourrough. Thank you Tony for making this tour one of the highlights of my vacation in NYC. Go Brooklyn! |

| I had a blast getting to know Brooklyn-a borough literally in my own backyard. The pizzas were the best! I would definitely go there again and I HIGHLY recommend the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour. This tour will change your impression of Brooklyn!!! |

| Tony did a wonderful job to keep us entertained and informed throughout the afternoon. He obviously enjoys what he was doing and was enthusiastic every moment of the day. At each turn of the bus and every stop, Tony had plenty of things to say. It was great to be passing through a portion of Brooklyn and seeing the surroundings today and then look at the screen in the bus and see the same scenery in the movies. A wonderful way to spend the afternoon. I would highly recommend this to everyone! The pizza was good at the first place and great at the second. We definitely like the sicilian style better. There were great views for picture taking. Tony and Danny (the driver) worked well together and every transition was smooth as silk. Thank you for a great way to get a taste of Brooklyn! |

| Having never been to New York City I knew that I wanted to see a little more of the Real New York during my stay. I had heard good things about the "Slice Of Brooklyn Tour". I decided to take a chance and I could not have had a better tour. We took several tours around Manhattan but this Brooklyn Tour was by far the best! I recommend this tour to anyone who wants the best pizza on the planet and a great tour guide! We love ya Tony!! |

| Tony is great. The tour is a very good mix of sights, history, and food! We really enjoyed the movie clips of places we were visiting. The pizza was great. We lived in Italy just outside of Naples for three years so we were wondering if the pizza could live up to the hype and it did. The pizza from Grimaldi's was as close to true Neapolitan pizza as I think you get can get in the US given the difference in ingredients. Normally we dislike Sicilian thick crust pizza, but the pizza from L&B's was very good. My husband bought chocolate spumoni and loved it. I got lemon ice which was terrific because unlike a lot of lemon ices it was not overly sweet and/or syrupy. |

| Tony gives you the insider's goods on a borough so infamous on the outside. It's one day in your life where you'll feel like you've lived Brooklyn-style. Looking forward to the upcoming mob-tour. |

| Thanks Tony,
My wife and I really enjoyed the tour, not just the pizza but all the history and places we saw. I have been coming to NY for 30 years and felt I really got to see something new and different that I wouldn't get to see without taking the tour. Don't even get me started on how good the pizza was.

| 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! |
