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. |

This was a first class tour from start to finish.
The reservation procedure was very easy.
They did a great job keeping us up to date with reminders and detailed instructions.
The bus and tour guide were waiting at the meeting point when we arrrived, and we received a friendly greeting.
The bus was clean and modern, the driver professional. The sound and video systems were first class.
The tour was very interesting, keeping our attention from start to finish. The tour guide was very informative, having grown up in the area.
We really enjoyed the Hollywood film clips that featured the locations we were travelling through.
We had only expected great food, but instead we got great food AND wonderful vistas, sights, sounds as well as smells.
Paula, our guide, was a great hostess. She was cute, funny and smart! Tony...give her a raise!
Best tour we have ever taken! (and we travel a lot) |

I have taken part in a number of tours. By far, A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour is one of my favorites. I went for my husband's birthday with friends and we couldn't have asked for a better time. Our tour guide, Tony, combined Brooklyn street smarts with historical facts and movie clips to deliver a tour that is both funny and informative. The tour really inspires you to want to learn all there is to know about Brooklyn. Too boot, L&B Spumoni Gardens serves the best Sicilian slice of pizza I've ever eaten! Thanks for a great time! |

I am not one to go on tours nor do I normally like them. However, this is great. I have been to NYC several times with family and have done the usual tourist stuff. My 15 year old son and I went on the tour and both of us thought it was the best thing we did in Nyc this time. highly reccomended |

We had a great time on this tour. It was a beautiful day and Tony was a great host, very funny and lively, and he loves Brooklyn and showing it to guests. He was very genuine about wanting everyone to have a good time. Views of Manhattan from photo stops were incredible and Tony took individual pictures for everyone who wanted one. Oh, and the pizza--very different styles and both very, very good (Jon's Pizzaria was still our favorite though). We loved seeing all the movie clips and the actual film locations, especially for Saturday Night Fever, a favorite.
We felt the tour was worth every penny and we probably would not have visited Brooklyn otherwise. Loved the tour, loved the pizza, loved Tony's enthusiasm. Tony really made the day; great time and lots of fun! |

My wife and I cannot recommend this tour too strongly. We had a wonderful time!
Our tour guide, Paula, is a Brooklyn resident and her deep knowledge, as well as her pride in the area, really made the tour both informative and a lot of fun.
Seeing clips from popular movies we all know, while looking at the actual locations where the filming took place, was a unique experience. Eating pizza at the top locations around Brooklyn simply speaks for itself.
We recommend this tour to anyone who wants a fun, New York experience. If any of our friends want to go on the tour, we would gladly do it again.
On a scale of 1 to 10, A Slice of Brooklyn is an 11!
You should do this!

We loved this tour. Initially, we thought 4 and 1/2 hours would be a little on the long side for something like this, but the time flew by. We loved learning about Brooklyn from an insiders point of view. The tour had a real "family owned" feel, which was great. All the people associated with the tour were nice to a fault and very welcoming. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!! |

We were recently in New York with my parents who were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. My Dad loves pizza, so we thought we would try the Slice of Brooklyn tour...it was great!!! The food was fabulous and our guide, Paula, was very fun and informative. The tour not only satisfied our appetite, but also our curiousity about Brooklyn (my husband and I might consider staying in Brooklyn instead of Mannhattan next time:) |
