| Our tour guide, Paula, was wonderful. She is very knowledgable about Brooklyn and answered all of our questions while telling great stories and providing local color. We stopped at two pizza places - both were tasty and we had plenty to eat. |

| My granddaughter and I were visiting NYC as her graduation gift. This was no doubt one of the highlights of the trip. This tour takes you away from the hustle and bustle of NYC and transports you into a beautiful NY neighborhood. Paula, our guide and Tony's cousin, was absolutely wonderful. Being from Brooklyn, she was full of stories and memories to share. Her narration and delivery style were full of fun, grit, and lots of "insider" info. This tour is worth every penny - fabulous pizza and spumoni, just enough walking, lots of laughs. Delores was our driver. What a jewel and BOY, did she do a great job getting us around town and out of tight spots. Don't miss this tour opportunity. It's a jewel and Brooklyn is beautiful. |

| I make it a habit to take a neighborhood based tour every time I visit NYC or Chicago.
The Brooklyn tour was fun, informative AND the tour guide...company owner...made the day really special with his knowledge of his home town. I flet I was in another part of the country far far away from NYC when we walked along the Coney Island boardwalk. This tour is a real winner for visitors with the better part of a day to spare. |

This tour is really worth your time! :0)

| I loved this tour and highly recommend that you take it if you find yourself in New York. Our tour guide, Paula, was so sweet, informative and fun. Deborah our bus driver made it look easy to namuver through that traffic. We were throughly entertained by all the history and movie clips. The trip to Coney Island was unexpected and very interesting. Even as full as I was after all the pizza, I wish we could have included a stop at the Nathan Hot dog stand for a sample. I obviously didn't remember what the exact sites other then "PIZZA" we were going to. LOVED the pizza and made me realize how bad our local pizza really is! :0) I hope that Tony adds other tours that we can take on later trips to New York.
Thanks for a Great Time!! :0) |

| My sister and I have been planning this trip to NYC for a year, and although it was my first time, my sister had been to NYC many times. A friend of her's live in NY and recommended that we go on your tour. And we are really Glad we did. Paula was amazing. She had a whole lot of Brooklyn info for us and had a great time telling us all about her home town. She really made the trip memmorable, that is besides the Pizza. Which was fantastic. Both places were so good and also so different. We will always think of the Pizza Tour as one of the high lights of our trip.
Thanks Paula and the driver (can't remember her name) she was alot of fun also.

| If you want to see something other than the norm...A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour should be your number 1 choice. Not only do you get GREAT PIZZA but a tour of Brooklyn. Our tour guide "Paula" was SUPER FUN and made the trip exciting. We are Californians and first timers to NYC. When people ask what was my favorite about NY, I say the "PIZZA TOUR" and they think I'm crazy but its the truth. You wont be disappointed!!! GREAT READY FOR AWESOME PIZZA.
Tony (If you are reading) - PAULA was great (probably cause she was a Californian for a bit) maybe you should give her something a little extra for making our tour so amazing and memorable!! :) |

| We travel to Manhatten at least once a year but have never made it to Brooklyn. We saw Tony on the Today Show over a year ago and made a note to give this a try on our next trip. Highly recommend it to anyone interested in fabulous views, interesting neighborhoods and of course great pizza. Our guide, Peggy, was informative, fun and entertaining. We will recommend to all of our California friends when they head back East. |

Great fun for married Brooklynites!

| My wife and I decided to do something different for Valentine's Day so we signed up for the Pizza Tour. Our guide(s) Paula and Tony were excellent hosts and taught us so much we did not know about our beloved Brooklyn. The pizza was delish & the knowledge was even tastier.
Recommended for anyone & everyone who has a keen desire to eat pie and learn a little about new york's favorite borough. |

| The bus tour was a great way to see as much as possible of Brooklyn. Paula was very informative and personable. The pizza at both locations was excellent. We don't see how anyone would be disappointed by this tour. |

| My wife and I had the pleasure of going on this tour on 23rd January 2009 and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to see something different when visiting New York - and who want to be fed as part of it!
Our guide Paula was superb, her enthusiasm and knowledge was excellent and coupled with the numerous stops where she provided more info and and the clips of famous movie scenes filmed in Brooklyn made it a very well rounded tour packed full of information. As a big Saturday Night Fever fan it was fab to see the actual street from the first scene in the movie.
Oh yeah, the pizza was great to! The first stop was for thin crust pizza with a bottle of brooklyn soda - go for the black cherry flavour. Delicious! The second pizza stop was my personal favourite as it was unlike any slice of pizza I have ever had - lovely fluffy dough base and a delicious tomato sauce.
All in all I have to say we were both extremely pleased with the tour, we've been lucky enough to visit the city a few times but never ventured to Brooklyn, I'm glad i saw it with the Slice of Brooklyn tour. Even if you don't like pizza, the tour is worth it just for the views looking back over the Manhattan skyline.
Add it to your itinerary when on a visit - you wont be disappointed. |
