| My husband and I are from Cincinnati and the other couple we were with are from the Chicago area; all four of us enjoyed ourselves tremendously. The pizza was great, the tour was excellent, and our tour guide Tony was awesome. It was a perfect mix of sightseeing, comfortable riding, comfortable walking, great food & drink (& gelato/spumoni !!), and a terrifically engaging and interesting presentation. We had music and film clips accenting the history, culture, current events and pop culture we were hearing about and seeing. Our attention never flagged, and we finished the tour upbeat and happy, not worn out and ready for the tour to end, which is usually the case with tours that involve a bus. Tony's whole presentation and energy level absolutely made the tour something we have already been recommending to all of our friends. |

| This tour is everything advertised and more. I was a little reluctant to go on a tour bus, as I usually like traveling independently. I made an exception as I really wanted to try the two pizza places and felt I didn't have time to do it on my own. This turned out to be a great decision because of our guide, Tony. He brings enthusiasm, humor and an extensive knowledge of Brooklyn to make this a wonderful day. He really enjoys what he does and it makes for a great tour. Don't hesitate to book this tour. As the word gets out you may have to wait for months to get to know Tony. |

| Just got back from this tour, and It was great ! not to take away from any of the other good tours i have taken while in NYC but The Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour has been the best ! Tony the guide, was very entertaining, quick witted, informative and kept the mood in the whole tour group on a real high the entire way through. His passion for the area and subject matter of the tour really showed the whole way and he covered everything from movie locations, local history, anecdotes and pizza history ! and of course we stopped at two truly amazing Brooklyn pizzerias.
Defintley one of the best and most original tours I have ever taken ! |

| Tony Muia’s “A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour” is entertaining, informative, and very cleverly organized. Scenes from famous movie locations are shown on screen at the exact moment one sees them live. What synchronization! Tony has boundless energy and continually talks throughout the tour about Brooklyn’s history. All his information is fascinating, never boring, and he gets the undivided attention of his tour group. He is full of warmth and personality -- a wonderful host and spokesperson for Brooklyn. Having been born and raised in one of the five NYC boroughs, I enjoyed seeing all those sections of Brooklyn that I had heard so much about but had never seen. In addition, one gets to eat at two famous pizzerias. What fun! On a scale of one to ten, I rate this tour a ten. I can’t wait for Tony’s next tour. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed this fun adventure through Brooklyn. Tony, Jimmy and our driver were excellent! The tour was very informative and fun, and the pizza at Grimaldi's and Spumoni Gardens was yummy! Service was also excellent. Very organized tour from beginning to end. Highly recommended! Thanks Tony for such a fun 4 hours!

| The whole day, from start to finish, was so great! The pizza was absolutely delicious!
Tony, our tour guide, really knew his stuff. We boarded the bus, which was very nice, and didn't have to worry about a thing. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. |
