Our tour guide, Paula, did an awesome job, complete with Brooklyn accent. She was upbeat, informative, and quick on her feet. She made sure we were well taken care of. The tour was punctual, on time from start to finish. The bus was awesome with those leather seats! |

We really enjoyed the Tour. We were two couples in NYC for a couple of days and this was a highlight. It was so fun to see the houses and the guide had some really interesting information related not only to the lights, but also the history of the area. We'd highly recommend! |

Everything about this tour was perfect. I knew about the neighborhood from an HGTV special a few years back and always wanted to go see the homes in person. When I found out about this tour I could not wait and it was absolutely better than I expected. The tour guide was great and everything from the music on the bus to the cappuccino at Mona Lisa was awesome! I would go again in a heartbeat. |

This tour was referred to me by a friend who had taken it while on vacation in NYC. I was apprehensive to the cost of $75/person but she told me it was worth it. It totally was worth it. My girlfriend loved it, I loved it, and it seemed that the entire bus loved it too! I would do this tour again next time I come to NYC it was that good and Paula our tour guide was amazing and gave us a lot of information on the area and city that I wouldn't have learned had I not gone on this tour.

We were fortunate enough to take this tour during the recent NYC snowstorm and everyone in our group had a great time. Tony was a wonderful guide and the bus driver did an outstanding job of guiding that bus through the snow-covered streets on Brooklyn. We were able to see a variety of houses, some very classy and others over-the-top in the amount of decorations they manage to cram into their yard. There was really someting for every taste!
This tour is so different than what most tourists do when they visit and I'd highly recommend it because you see a real residential area instead of just all the stores and office buildings and skyscrapers. We plan to visit again next summer and take Tony's pizza tour. |

This tour was wonderful! My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Tony. His Brooklyn accent and demeanor made the tour not only humorous but totally enjoyable. The pizza and history behind each restaurant is wonderful. The tour bus is first class, large windows for viewing, comfy seats, restroom on board, etc. This tour was such a great change of pace from the hassle of trying to catch a cab, change trains, subways, etc. Everything is taken care of for you as far as getting the pizza. We loved every minute of the tour from the time we stepped on to the bus through all of the commentary, history, film clip viewings, pizza eating and the walk on the boardwalk at Coney Island. You can tell a lot of time and thought was put in to planning this tour - IT'S WONDERFUL - do it! |

We had a blast. Tony and Jimmy grew up in Brooklyn and seem to love their hometown. The tour was everything that was promised and more. The day after our tour, the cover story in USA Today was about the Melting-pot of Brooklyn. We read the article with interest, and realized that Tony had told us everything the article discussed. The pizzas were great and the tour was very comfortable. Tony stressed out when we got stuck in some traffic, but we didn't mind because he kept us entertained. Our 18 year old son and 20 year old daughter really enjoyed the tour. The cyclone at Coney Island was a hit, and we'll never forget 'fugetaboutit'
The tour was a highlight of our New York vacation. It certainly exceeded our expectations! |

Loved everything about it from the enthusiastic guide Paula and the driver, to the punctuality, diversity, well researched background including film clips and audio, and of course the pizza. One of the best organized tours I've even taken. Well worth every penny! |

As a New Jersey native all I ever hear is "Everything is better in Brooklyn".from Brooklyn transplants. After the tour I do agree that "Almost everything is better in Brooklyn" My 2 teenagers and husband loved the tour. Paula was energetic and funny but most of all real. |

We were handed a candy cane as we boarded the bus [nice touch] and the tour began promptly. Not only did we get to see some over-the-top fun Christmas decorations, we were able to see some beautiful neighborhoods in Brooklyn. I was expecting some "cheesy" decor but in the end, they were totally fun with a lot of imagination. The tour guide was animated and provided the group with background information. Her assistant was helpful and friendly. The holiday video snipets added to the enjoyment. Our bus driver navigated the streets with ease. And the cannoli was yummy...the hot chocolate, not so much! Highly recommend this tour to get into the holiday spirit. |

This was a fabulous, delicious, and fun tour. Tony was our guide--Tony is from Brooklyn and Tony loves Brooklyn. I think that made such a noticable difference in the way the area was presented and the tour was given. It was informative but fun....and I learned so much. Both pizzas were phenomenal and is no neat to have experienced the history of the differing pizza styles. Including the stop at Coney Island just added to the diversity of areas that he covers. The tour is concise, organized, and is the perfect length to plan an activity for the evening. I would love to have been in New York longer so as to have taken other tours that Tony offers. The Slice of Brooklyn Tour is wonderful. |

The tour was full and Bruce was very welcoming and accommodating. The tour started in manhattan and did not tour any of manhattans Xmas lites. We went straight to Brooklyn but Bruce was full of interesting stories of the area on the way. We got to drive past some beautiful houses and then stopped at Dyker Heights to walk around. This was wonderful and we seemed to have lots of time to take photos. Ronnie joined the tour here and made sure we did not get too lost. She also took many photos for us and suggested good spots. My kids 10 & 12 loved the tour. The finale of a hot choc & cannoli was yummy too. A great way to start Christmas. |

Our tour guide, Paula, was very informative and fun. The pizza at both stops was fantastic, and there were plenty of great photo ops during the tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone, and I would do it again myself!
Bravo! |
