| My husband and I are both from Brooklyn and we wanted to show our grandchildren where we were brought up. Tony has put together a great tour we had a lot of fun and our grandkids had fun and lots of pizza. We leared a lot but also was entertained. Tony was the best guide ever. We were the only locals the rest of the tour was made up of people from Austrlia, Germany, and Ireland and they loved it as well. We plan to do another tour in the spring. |

| After reading all these positive reviews all over the net i was expecting something more than that.
I think that the idea of such a tour is a good one and it gives a newbie a chance to see Brooklyn through the eyes of someone that knows the area. Our guide, Paula, did a good job to show us around Brooklyn and tried to entertain us but i think that at the end was obvious that 4,5 hrs are more than enough.
they could squeeze the schedule a little bit and still offer a decent tour. i like the first pizzeria, grimaldi's, but the other one wasn't sth special. the most important aspect was those little details of brooklyn's history that Paula shared with us rather than the pizza.
i think that it didn't worth the money and certainly the time could be less as the actual tour needed 2,5-3hrs max.
still, i'd recommend it as an experience but i'd ask for a better deal. times are difficult and those guys have huge margins. |

| This tour was truly one of the highlights of our trip, and we saw Broadway shows, plays and went to the Met, so that's really saying something. It was great to discover a side of NY we never had before and to go to places we never would have been, otherwise. The pizzas were EXCELLENT, specially L&B's and our fabulous tour guide *Paula* was very attentive, knowledgeable, witty and caring of all our needs. Thank you Slice of Brooklyn, we had a WONDERFUL time.
Much love from Puerto Rico...

| We did the Slice of Pizza Tour in November and absolutely loved it. Paula, our guide was absolutely fantastic! The bus was comfortable, the video footage was great and the local tales added colour.... and then there was the pizza.... We will be back! |

| The Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour was a lot of fun for my family, our friends, and me. We were so excited to be part of this experience since we tried to get into Grimaldi's on another NYC/Brooklyn trip in mid-September and were unable to make it in to try their famous pizza. Both pizza stops were amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 different types of pizzas and wish I had some with me right now to enjoy! The bus was very comfortable (and warm sicne it was freezing outside), the driver was great, and our tour guide, Paula, was FUNtastic! The tour was so well planned and thought out that the actual video was synchronized to go with the verbal details Paula shared as we were driving through various neighborhoods. We loved it so much that we may consider one of the other tours that are offered. We love Brooklyn! |

| Hi! Paula was our tour guide and we had an amazing time. We attended the 11 a.m. tour on Monday November 10th. Let me just say that was the most amazing tour we have ever been to. We have traveled from Daytona Beach, Florida three times now to visit New York City and by far this was the best trip we have taken thus far and it was completely due to the wonderful pizza tour we went on to Brooklyn.
The food was delicious, the bus was very comfortable with just the right amount of people and more importantly even my 13 and 15 year old boys had a blast and you know how hard it is to please teenage boys. Paula really made the tour, she was very knowledgable and so pleasant to talk to. She made it a point to walk around to each person and make sure they were having fun and we really did. Thank you for making this a "trip of a lifetime" which is exactly what it was. We would definetely recommend this to anyone at anytime, a true "must see"!!
With warm regards and much thanks for a tour well worth the money,

| The tour is an excellent introduction to Brooklyn. It was very well organized and informative. We traveled on a very comfortable bus. Our guide Paula was very friendly and knowledgeable. Just the right amount of interesting facts about Brooklyn. And pizza at both places was tasty and quite different. |
