| 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 was the best tour I have ever taken. Tony is so personable and he knows his Brooklyn, Saw things I would not have seen and learned a few things about Brooklyn I didnt know. Not to mention the pizza was great.. I felt like I was with a cousin getting the family tour of his hometown. We are sending our son and his wife to New York and are buying tickets to the tour for them also. Big recommendation . I would do it again. |

| 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 was the 2nd tour I've taken and it never disappoints. Each time I travel to NYC with friends I try to get them on this tour. Tony is a wonderful spokesperson for Brooklyn & pizza!! He truly loves what he does and loves his native Brooklyn and that's what makes this tour so much fun. Take the tour!!! It will be the best 4 hours of your stay in NYC! Enjoy! |

| Hi we booked this tour after reading reviews and recommendations online. We had the pleasure of a small group tour because we visited in February probably one of the less busy times in NY. However a big or small group this tour would be fun.Toni was a great host from start to finish, his knowledge of brooklyn and pizza was 10/10. His tour covered various brooklyn areas, famous movie spots and two of the best pizza joints that you will ever visit. This tour combines walking and using private bus. I have to say this tour is something different to the usual Manhattan sight seeing events and its all down to a genuinely nice guy. Thanks Toni. Make sure if you book this tour, go with an empty stomach, cuz the pizza is yum and plentiful.
(P.S Toni we got engaged next day on the brooklyn bridge) |

| Absolutely wonderful tour and tour guide. Tony was outstanding. We learned all about Brooklyn, tasted its wonderful Margarita pies, were wowed by views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Coney Island. Lots of movie trivia too. My teens enjoyed it very much also. Not to be missed. |

| My sister and I flew from San Antonio, Texas to NY for vacation and this tour was definitely the highlight of our trip. We heard about this tour on the Today show and we were so glad we made it a part of our trip. It was well organized, informative, entertaining and just fun. The food was great! I loved Grimaldi's and my sister loved L&B. We were able to get fabulous photo ops of the Brookly Bridge and Manhattan skyline. We also loved the movie clips on the dvd screens inside the bus. It literally is a slice of Brooklyn! Tony was funny and made you want to be a part of his family...he made you wish you grew up in Brooklyn! We look forward to a mobster tour if that ever becomes available. We are recommending this tour to everyone when they visit NY. Thanks for a wonderful tour! |
