Great introduction to the borough from attitude and history to local customs and a slice (many slices, actually) with a dynamic guide.

An interesting diversion

I read about the tour in Fromer's guide, but was categorised immediately as having heard about the tour on a travel show. Did not bode well. The tour was not about pizza but about Brooklyn. There were statements about the pizza being the best in the world. A quick trip to Italy will prove otherwise. The host was informative and there was a real push to show Brooklyn. Nice enough but this was a pizza tour and there were only two pizza places to experience the "pies". The tour was typical of the perception that America has the best - best food (see the rest of the world and reality will sink in), best bridge (again see the rest of world). So be weary of the tendency in a typical American way to assume that the pizza's in Brooklyn are the best and that Brooklyn is the best borough and have a laugh at the plastic palm tree sitting all alone on Coney Island beach.

This was a great tour. Lots of information was provided and we were driven around all the sights of Brooklyn. Tony was very funny and had a story to tell of everywhere we went. You get to see a lot of the brooklyn you have heard of over the years including Coney Island, Brooklyn suburbs, Brooklyn bridge and the EL. I would recommend it to people of any age.

WOW! What a great day out. This was a great insight into Brooklyn, Tony was a great source of information and the whole day was a lot of fun . The pizzas how good are they!. Sensational. The other tours in New York "Forget about it". We came all the way from Sydney Australia and enjoyed every minute. Regards Glen

See the real new york in Brooklyn

i highly recommend this tour to any one who wants to experience the heart of new york and it's rich and diverse cultures. Our tour guide was an adorable Brookllynite, as she referred herself to be, besides a "pizza/bagel" (jewish and italian). having grown up in the city, she was full of wonderful historical facts and personal stories of her experiences, which was quite charming. The Pizza, or Pie, as referred to by the locals, was sinfully delicious. we also had the opportunity to not only have a taste, but extra slices. both sites were very generous with the pizza. amazing! i can't ever eat pizza again other than in NY and Brooklyn. i highly recommend this tour, as i plan on returning to NY and would happily revisit the Brooklyn pizza tour, with Paola, of course, who has a spark and real love for her town.

As a New York I am reluctant to go on Tours. I must say not only was this great it was Paulaq who made it one of the most enjoyable Tours I have ever been on. I am now spoiled when it comes to Tours. Keep up the good work

We all fell in love with Tony!

I would absolutely recommend the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza tour. We loved every moment of it. We were very excited to have Tony himself as our guide, though Uncle Louie sounds quite a character! Tony was fantastic, he was easy to listen to with his wit and Brooklyn charm. He was full of interesting information and tales which really gave us a feel for what it would be like to grow up and live in Brooklyn. The most relaxed and friendly tour we had. Also loved the Pizza!

The Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour is a great way to see and taste Brooklyn. Our friendly, animated tour guide, Tony, set the tone for a very enjoyable day.
