| The Pizza tour turned out to be so much better than I had anticipated.Myself and my three sons, all over 21 ,had a fantastic day (despite of the miserable weather).
Paula was a great tour guide extremely welcoming and had a great love for Brooklyn.
The restaurants we visited were suberb,perfect locations for such a themed tour.My 'children' really enjoyed all the movie references within Brooklyn.
All in all it was a great way to spend 4and a half hours.
I would highly reccomend it to friends and family. |

| Great guide for our slice of Brooklyn tour. Many fun facts and even though we had horrible weather ( rain all day ) we had a great time. Paula did not mind answering any questions and was very thorough. The Pizza was the best we have ever had anywhere!! We will take another tour by this company! |

Good times

| Paula, our guide, was energetic and definitely knows her stuff about Brooklyn. She made the best out of the bad weather. The first pizza place was my favorite! You get 4 total slices of pizza between two locations and free soda. I think that the price is a bit much than it should be however it was a fun time. |

Don't miss a chance to do this tour!

| We live on the west coast, we were joined by a relative from Delaware, and good friends from Staten Island, who even though they live close had never taken the opportunity to do this tour. We ALL had a fantastic time, the tour was informative, our tour guide knew her stuff and was so enjoyable, our tour bus was comfortable, the driver was great, and the pizza FANTASTIC. Every aspect of this tour was terrific, would highly recommend it before you choose to do another tour. We are already talking about "next time". Thanks again to Paula and Tony, we will see you again in the future! Keep up the great work. |

| Although I have been to Brooklyn before, this is first time I have done a tour. I loved seeing places where movies were filmed! The pizza was an added bonus! |

| As someone that has grown up in Brooklyn and has been gone for 30+ years it was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with my roots and to share the experience with my young daughters, one of which is named "Brooke Lynn". My daughters enjoyed the pizza, the history and Paula our tour guide who is an absolute doll. |

| I attended the tour in April 2009 and couldn't have been more pleased!!! It was a rainy and dreary Spring day but the tour made it wonderful regardless of the weather. Also, I was with my 2 sisters (ages 35 and 21) and my mother (nearly 60) -- and we all came back with the comments that it was great and we would recommend to anyone! However, I do recommend skipping breakfast because you will be stuffed after all of the great pizza you get to experience :o) |

| MY HUSBAND & i AND OUR TWO FRIENDS FROM CALIFORNIA HAD A GREAT TIME.
THE PIZZA WAS REALLY GOOD. WE ALSO ENJOYED THE TOUR OF THE VARIOUS SPOTS IN BROOKLYN, HIGHLIGHTED BY THE FILM CLIPS FROM THE MOVIES MADE IN BROOKLYN. OUR GUIDE, PAULA, WAS FUNNY, INFORMATIVE, WARM, FRIENDLY AND JUST PLAIN NICE. SHE WAS ACCOMODATING TO US BY LETTING US OFF NEAR CANAL STREET. WE REALLY APRECIATED THAT.
WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS EXPERIENCE TO ALL OUR FRIENDS. AND WE HOPE THAT THEY ALSO WOULD GET PAULA AS THEIR GUIDE. WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO TRYING SOME OF THE OTHER TOURS SOON. |

Paula was fantastic!

| Before the tour I was a little disappointed that we were only going to go to two pizzerias, but after we hit the second one I was so STUFFED I understood why we don't go to more.
It was a fun way to see Brooklyn, and our tour guide Paula was great and made the tour really enjoyable. She knows a lot of interesting trivia, and was like a proud parent showing off her borough.
Going to Grimaldi's without waiting in line is worth the price of the ticket. Grimaldi's is good, but honestly not the best pizza in the world, but you still have to experience it. L&B's was outstanding.
We got lucky with wonderful weather, but I can imagine it might not be as fun in the cold or rain, but still worth the trip. |
