We came from Italy and one of friends recommended the tour. It was great, Tony is great. We loved the pizza from Spumoni Garden, different than home.
We also went on the Christmas Lights tour which despite the rain was a beautiful evening. We do not get to experience such things in Italy. Molto Grazie Tony, Molto Grazie Brooklyn!!!! |

Fantastic ! Myself and my wife were in NYC for a long weekend celebrating my wife's 50th birthday and this was a highlight of the weekend. We saw an article many months ago in the London Times and decided to 'go for it'. We were very glad we did. The 4.5 hours seemed to fly with never one moment of 'what am I doing here ?'. Toni is 'da man'; informative, humerous and very entertaining...is there anything he doesn't know about Brooklyn. Sitting in Grimaldis, eating pizza, drinking Brooklyn Lager and listening to Frank Sinatra ? As Toni would say 'you couldn't write this stuff' ! We feel as though we have seen things many folk only see in films or on telly e.g. Coney Island boardwalk, the road in the car chase in The French Connection and many, many more. And the Pizza is fantastic ! If you are going to NYC you MUST do this ! You will not be dissapointed. |

This really was a good time and I would highly recommend.
Tony our guide was VERY knowledable and kept things interesting. Trust me though- go hungry. Even though we only stopped at two pizza places it was plenty of food. Especially when you get to the Sicilian deep dish style. Which was crazy good by the way! |

Tony is so personable, you cannot walk away and say you did not enjoy this activity. He is so knowledgeable about Brooklyn, and has great stories. The pizza was good from both establishments, the only thing a little off was the small amount of time you had in each restaurant and they were so crowded. |

There were 3 in our group. We all thought it was the best tour we have taken. Tony the tour guide was friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable and fun to be with. We would never have been able to see as much of Brooklyn on our own. All 3 of us would highly recommend the tour and will probably take it again. The pizza restaurants were great. Grimaldi's was the best thin slice pizza we have ever had. |

As a non-tour person, this was an excellent use of 4 hours, and very non-tour'ish. Tony made the day - warm, generous, respectful, smart, funny, funny, funny and a ton of great energy that never stops. There's excellent information at every turn, good mix of sitting and moving around, the bus was not plastered with "Pizza Tour" signs and a smaller size than the gigantic buses, which made for a nice sized group - easy to move around, hear, and connect with the people around you. It was so good that the pizza actually took a a distant second seat to the Tony show. I kept thinking - how would I ever have figured out all this great information, and gotten to these great spots, on my own. We highly recommend hanging out with Tony for a few hours and seeing Brooklyn through his eyes. Just great. |

We loved this tour - Tony was incredible!!! We went with our son (who is 30) and his girlfried - he lives in Brooklyn and was amazed at how much he didn't know about it.
The pizza was delicious - the best we've ever had. We will recommend this tour to everyone we know who's coming to NYC and look forward to more tours in the future.
THANKS TONY !!!! and happy holidays! |

We liked the great pizza and the tour guide was extremely interesting.
Movie clips tied in perfectly with the tour and added a great flavor to the tour. |

A great change of pace from the activities in Manhattan! Tony is a true professional, lots of fun, and we could tell he loves what he does. Seriously never had a better tour guide. Enjoyed the many places in Brooklyn we saw and the wonderful history we learned on the way. The pizza was the best, and Brooklyn is now on my list for the next time we visit! A gem of a tour. |

We had a great time on the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour. My husband and I went not realizing how much of Brooklyn we were actually going to see. Tony (the tour organizer) was not only a wealth of information about Brooklyn and its history, but fun movie facts about Brooklyn. And he conducted the tour with such ease and personality, it made it very fun. I would definately recommend this tour and will probably go on some of his other tours in the future!!! Best of luck Tony - I hope some day you are in one of those houses you showed us!! |
