| We had a great time on the pizza tour. Grimaldis pizza is the best! The tour guide was very pleasant and informative. He seemed to be very knowledgeable about Brooklyn and the history of pizza in NYC.
We went in November when it was very cold so the bus was a great way to see the sights without freezing.
Didn't care for the Sicilian style pizza as much. Thought it was very salty but one member of our family loved it.
We had 2 teenagers on the tour and much to their surprise they had fun. |

2nd Time Just as Great!

| My son and I took this tour Sept 06 and loved it so much we did it again this November with my sister and his girlfriend. We all loved it. Tony is passionate and very knowledgeable about Brooklyn. He is the most gracious, accomodating host for a tour. Everything is as stated in the description and runs like clockwork. The pizza is delicous! Tony mentioned 2 upcoming tours; Christmas lights and a gangster tour. I will definately do both. There is something in this tour for everyone! |

| First, let me say something about the owner/founder, Tony Muia. This is a guy who was born to do this. His enthusiasm, knowledge, presentation, warmth was just overwhelming -- I felt I knew him my whole life. Being Italian from Little Italy, The Bronx, I was brought up on pizza and I will say, unequivically, the pizzas we had were the best I have ever tasted! The places we stopped, the history he gave about them, and the history of Brooklyn itself while the bus was going around, was outstanding. The slide show, the music, his funny personality -- I could go on and on -- but I think you get my drift: the tour was delicious -- both in food and knowledge. We are actually going again in April, 2008 and adding some friends. If you can ask Tony, I would love a few more brochures about the Pizza Tour to mail to my friends. Maybe someone can call me and I'll give my address.
Tony: I wish you the very best! Good luck to you. |

| This tour was absolutely fantastic. Tony was THE perfect tour guide, knowledgeable without being pushy. All the sites we visited were interesting and the Pizza was delicious. Coney Island boardwalk was my favourite place - shame it was raining! It was just long enough at 4.5 hours, although it took a while to get everyone out of the first Pizza restaurant! The size of the group was good, not too many. The whole thing exceeded our expectations and then some!
Tony was SUPERB, We will definitely be back for more in the future.

| Tony was extremely iformative, learned alot about broklyn that we would not have
known about if it wasnt for the tour. The pizza was out of this world. The pizza pie was
. the best pizza i have ever had. We highly recommend the SLICE OF BROKLYN
TOUR AND HOPE THAT YOU GET TONY AS YOUR TOUR GUIDE. ON A SCALE
OF 1 TO 10 IT GETS AN 11. DANIEL & KAREN FROM CALIFORNIA. |

| Seeing and hearing about Brooklyn was faaarrr better than the pizza itself. Would not go back for pizza, but would go back to see Tony. I was embarassed by the pizza maker when trying to take photo of oven. Maybe Tony should have warned us of the worker's sensitivity to photo shots. I talked to Tony about this. I'm OVER IT! Still would recommend tour but with the caveat - NO PHOTOS OF THE WORKERS & OVEN PLEASE. |
