| We are a family of five (3 teens) from the UK and cannot praise this tour enough - we learnt so much and all in an informal way with great company. Suited us hugely and the Pizza, what can we say, bypassing the line at Grimaldis was a pure pleasure. How Sweet it is! This tour has been very professionally put together and includes a great running commentary together with vid clips of the Brooklyn movie scenes that are 'in time' with the drive - superb! I never knew that Brooklyn was home to so much Hollywood.
And such contrast, from Dumbo (Down under the Manhatten Bridge Overpass) very trendy, to Brooklyn Bridge Park, to Grimaldis to L&B's and then to Bay Ridge and finally to Coney Board Walk.
Wow and Golly sums this up in UK speak and I advise, if you are reading my review to book it - you will not be disappointed.

| My son and I heard about your tour on the Australian T.V. Show "Getaway". We enjoyed time touring Brooklyn and the pizzas. We couldn't get over how picturesque the borough is and we were amaised at Coney Island. It was particularly interresting to hear all the intrigue surrounding the place. I couldn't imagine anyone else running the tour than Tony. I intend to contact Chanel 9 here in Australia to thank them for publisising your tour. Contrary to Tony's quote, "Ah! Forget aboud it!" We wont. |

| We went on this tour as a bunch of girls from Connecticut. Not only was it enjoyable but very informative. Things i never new about Brooklyn before! The pizza was great ! We also enjoyed the sightseeing. Tony was an AWESOME tour guide. He is very passionate about his home and made us passionate as well.
We will go on another of his tours in a heartbeat! Thanks Tony!!!! |

Don't let the seemingly high price of the tour put

| Tony's passion for his city is very evident in the tour and by the end of it you will become an honourly Brooklynite.
The tour covers film locations and other general pieces of info you won't find on any other tour.
The pizza was pretty good too.
Ciao |

| Tony is a wonderful tour guide. The tour was much better than I anticipated. It is very well organized and Tony makes you feel very comfortable. Tony's presentation was informative as well as fun. I would highly recommend the tour. My friends and I can't wait to do the Christmas light tour!!!
Thanks Tony

| The title of the tour "A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour" was intriquing, so we signed up for it. We were not disappointed. The tour provided a tour of Brooklyn, Coney Island, famous movie locations, tasty pizza, and an excellent tour guide. What more could you ask for? Tony did an outstanding job of showing off his home town. |

| This was a great tour! Paula (our tour guide) was fantastic! She gaves us a really good taste of Brooklyn.
The places we visted were great (especially the pizza!)
My favourite location was Coney Island - it would have been nice to have a little more time there but it was great to see. Also time for an ice cream stop under the Brookyn bridge would be a bonus! The video clips were a nice touch, it was good to see the places on the screen and then look out the window and see the same thing.
Highly recommend this tour to anyone visting New York - Brooklyn is a must see! |

| We had Paula as our guide and she was very knowledgeable as well as entusiastic. The other people on the tour were also very friendly, which helped make the day more enjoyable. The stops along the way were interesting and the pizza was terrific and offered in great abundance. The historic tidbits and local background were an added bonus. The 4 1/2 hours went by very quickly - actually more quickly than I originally envisioned. My only suggestion would be to have a very basic, simple to read, map available so people could have a better understanding of where they were (and where they had been) relative to the other locations. |
