| Tony is wonderful on this tour, his knowledge on Brooklyn is outstanding.
He makes it a lot of fun for everybody. It's probably one of the BEST things we did in New York, I highly recommed this to anyone.
It's the best 41/2 hours I have spent. |

| I have taken many guided tours in the USA and Europe and can attest without hesitation that Tony Muia is the best tour guide I have experienced. He is knowledgeable and passionate about Brooklyn. Tony made everyone on the tour feel welcome and readily answered questions. The tour includes stops at two pizzerias and the food is plentiful and delicious. We even had time to explore the boardwalk at Cony Island and ride the Cyclone. I highly recommend this tour. Thanks, Tony! |

| As a single traveler, I appreciated the chance to sample the coal oven pizzas, which are usually not sold by the slice. But the tour is so much more than that. A fantastic and unique overview of a place many tourists make the mistake of skipping over.
Tony is a fabulous guide, very personable and clearly a fan of his home borough. I loved how he tied in many of the locations visited with movies clips.
I would recommend this tour to anyone--go, stuff yourself, have fun and maybe take a spin on the Cyclone! |

| It was a plus that the tour was limited to a small group. Tony was excellent, and his enthusiasm and love for Brooklyn made the tour very enjoyable.There were no lapses in his presentation. We enjoyed the 2 pizza stops and the Coney Island visit. We joined him in riding the Cyclone. We have and will continue to recommend this tour to others. This was one tour that we enjoyed from start to finish. |

| Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Tony knows and loves Brooklyn, and is really good at creating a friendly and fun time. The small group--20 seems to be the maximum--format is nice, with time to socialize over the two pizza stops and in the bus as well. This tour is a nice relief from the high-pressure Manhattan sights, well worth the cost. I almost never take tours, but if they were all like this, that would change. Highly recommended! |

| Words cannot express how much I enjoyed this tour. If you are thinking of visting NYC and staying in Manhattan then think again. I can honestly say I enjoyed 4.5 hrs in Brooklyn better than 1 week in Manhattan. The pizza is to die for, dont pig out at Grimaldis because there is Sicilian coming up! There was a sense about Brooklyn that really got me, I cant say just what but a vibe.
If you are a mafia buff you will love Bensonhurst. Coney Island is great and even the projects are interesting. Above all, the guide Tony is just wonderful. He had a great knowledge without being pushy and he seems like he truly cares about Brooklyn but more importantly the tour itself and the customers. Will do the tour again when next in NYC for sure! |

| Tony's tour was absolutely terrific!! His knowledge of the borough he grew up in and lives flows as he takes you on a wonderful journey that includes details not found in other Brooklyn tours. The pizza stops alone are worth the price, but having Tony with his interesting and fun perspectives on this world renowned borough of New York City is an eye-opening experience not to be missed! TAKE THIS TOUR - maybe TWICE --- you won't be disappointed!!! |
