| This tour was the most interesting and informative of any tour we have taken, and one of us was 15, so that is saying alot!
Uncle Louie and Tony were awesome! My girls loved the pizza, but even more liked the history that was not presented in a "school" manner.
We have already told friends about the tour and will definitely book another tour upon our return to the area. |

| the slice of pizza brooklyn tour was so easy and relaxed and fun and you got to eat pizza!!! Tony is a sweetheart and has everything so well organized-- with lots of information about Brooklyn, the neighborhoods and history and the people of Brooklyn interspersed with his personal stories. He is an inspiration to us all to follow your passion and do what you love for a living. the bus is very luxurious and extremely comfortable. The tour is a good way to relax after hectic touristy things and walking everywhere in the city. Tony takes care of everything. The pizza is incredible, and at spumoni gardens we had the opportunity to taste spumoni after our pizza. I would highly recommend the tour as a way to see more of the area and to kick back and spend a leisurely afternoon seeing the sights.......THANKS TONY and keep doing what you love. |

| Have gone to Brooklyn many times but never learned as much until Tony! He knows it all. So very many interesting sites. It brought back some fond memories and now I have new ones! We all had a great day and certainly would encourage others to include this activity in their future. |

| Tony is one of the best tour guides for any tour I've taken in NYC. You can tell he is crazy about his beloved Brooklyn. This tour gave a good sampling of Brooklyn and he spoke of his city enthusiastically. I would never have seen parts of Brooklyn that he took us in. The bus was new, super nice and air conditioned. All our group enjoyed the pizza at both stops. I also got to know some of my fellow tourist as we sat together at the pizza parlors. This tour is a MUST for any NYC tourist wanting to see what's outside Manhattan. |

| I went on this tour with my college age daughter, and we both had a super time! Tony was an excellent guide, being both personable and informed. He had many funny stories and showed scenes from movies when we were actually "on location" in the bus. It was great to see where John Travolta walked down the street strutting his stuff in Saturday Night Fever, and the pizza shop he stopped at, plus other areas where famous chase scenes were filmed in other movies! There were two pizza stops where we got to indulge in both Sicilian and Neopolitan styles, and topped it off with spumoni! We especially enjoyed another stop at Coney Island, where we got to walk on the boardwalk and see the Cyclone and Wonder Wheel, along with the other "endangered" amusements. We also got to see Nathan's and the beach, and to take photos of this historical area. There was a stop under the Brooklyn Bridge area, which gave us spectacular views of Manhattan, and an excursion around some of the more expensive homes in Brooklyn. All in all, we had a great day, and everyone on the trip seemed highly pleased with the tour. You can't help but love the sights, the food, and Tony! We'd love to go again. |

| This tour is everything it promises to be. The tour guide was funny, informative, friendly. He has it down to a science and everything ran smoothly and timely.. I think it's good value for the money and highly recommend this tour.
It is the second time I have taken the tour and each time was perfect. |
