as someone who avoids tours like the plague i cannot reccommend A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour highly enough.Tony our guide was extremely informative and enthusiastic about the area he comes from.his enthusiasm only helped us to enjoy the day more.We learnt so much about Brooklyn,and visited areas we would never have been to.As someone who has only spent time in Manhattan it was enlightening to see what one of the other boroughs has to offer.And as for the pizza,two completely contrasting types but both outstanding.Without doubt the highlight of our recent trip to NYC.

This has to be a one of a kind tour! Tony is very accommodating and eager to please. The pizza is great and if you are a movie buff, that is a plus. Tony has also put together a terrific presentation of combining movies and actual real locations together, along with a great history lesson of Brooklyn. An enjoyable day !

One of the highlights of our trip

This was a fantatic trip which we would recommend to anyone visiting the city - Tony is funny, charming and full of information about his area and pizza of course! The bus was really comfortable, the other passengers friendly and all in all it was a really fun way to spend an afternoon. It was definately one of the highlights of our one week trip from Ireland. Next time we come back to New York we will 'fugedabout' Manhattan and be heading straight for Brooklyn!

Very informative and fun

Four of us, ages 59-66, had a wonderful time on this tour. We saw a lot of Brooklyn and very much enjoyed the commentary provided by Tony. We particualrly enjoyed going to areas where famous movies were filmed. The pizza itself was good though we all thought we've had better NY pizza in the past. We highly recommend the tour to anyone who wants to know the history of the city.

Great way to spend half a day

We enjoyed the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour immensely. It was interesting and informative. The pizza was exceptionally good, too. Slip away from Manhattan for part of a day to see and taste some of Brooklyn's best. Tony's the perfect guide for your journey.

A fascinating tour!
Fri, Mar 14, 08   11:00 AM humbletiller Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Individual
This tour had two aims, eating great pizza and Brooklyn sightseeing. I am pleased to say that it met both objectives with flying colours. Tony is a most engaging tour guide. If you left him to it, he could talk about the geography, demographics, history and culture of Brooklyn for hours, and what's more it would all be compelling listening. Tony clearly loves Brooklyn, and that is obvious to anyone that takes the tour. The pizza at both Grimaldi's and Spumoni Gardens was delicious, and unlike any pizza I have had anywhere else. As for the sightseeing, Brooklyn Bridge was a predictable, albeit essential place to visit. We also visited the Manhattan Bridge down the river. However, it is when we left the shore of the East River and headed into unknown territory in deepest Brooklyn that the already high interest level rose still further. I loved Bay Ridge (yes, Brooklyn does have middle class areas!). Also fascinating were the areas of Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights and Bath Beach and their Italian-American influences. We saw the pizzeria where John Travolta purchased a pizza in 'Saturday Night Fever', and a few other locations from that film. We drove down the road featured in the car chase in 'The French Connection'. We visited the Coney Island Boardwalk and on the way back to Manhattan passed from various intriguing Ethnic neighbourhoods. One possible suggestion for future improvement. Make the tour 2-3 hours longer, so that we can discover even more areas of Brooklyn and we can make more stops at points of interest. And eat more pizza of course! Overall, an excellent tour. My perception of Brooklyn has changed forever. The next day I was on the D train back to Coney Island. I now find myself saying 'Forget About It' at random times! As the trailer says, you can take the tourist out of Brooklyn, but you can't take Brooklyn out of the tourist...

Great tour. Great Pizza. We've been telling all our friends to put the Slice of Brooklyn tour on their "A" list of things to do when in NYC. Entertaining, Informative, and Filling.

Fun and informative

Our daughter and friends from North Carolina made the plans for the Brooklyn Pizza tour and we were lucky enough to be included. Although we are New Yorkers from upstate, we had never had the chance to travel into Brooklyn. It was a great time! Tony was a terrific tour guide, who made sure the tour ran smoothly, never rushing us but making sure that we had plenty of time to enjoy our meals, and still see all the sights promised. His talk on the bus was very informative yet entertaining and we would definitely recommend it to all our friends and family. What a great way to spend the day and a great value for the money. We're looking forward to the Christmas Lights tour!

excellent tour/activity

Although the pizza is delicious, what makes the tour so special is the guide, Tony. His enthusiasm for Brooklyn is genuine and he shares this with the tour group. I would highly recommend this tour.

Brooklyn from every angle
Fri, Mar 7, 08   11:00 AM DDomogauer Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Tony, with an obvious passion for his home-town, covers Brooklyn from every imaginable angle: culinary, historical, political, cultural. His presentation is humorous, fact-filled, fast-paced, well organized--in short entertaining and informative--oh and quite delicious. He introduces tour-goers to the world of NYC pizza, describing the history of the early families who began it all and offers up samples of two of Brooklyn's most popular pizza styles. Along the route, which covers miles and miles of Brooklyn, from the "edgier" neighborhoods to the million dollar homes overlooking the river, Tony offers well-timed clips from films depicting Brooklyn scenes. So, we watch John Travolta (Saturday Night Fever) talking about the Brooklyn Bridge from a bench along the river--as we ourselves look out at the bench from the windows of the van. Highly recommended for locals and tourists alike!

BEST TOUR OF BROOKLYN YOU CAN DO AND EAT GREAT
Mon, Mar 3, 08   11:00 AM DRJSMCC Male 50-59 Local Individual
I saw this tour featured on CBS Sunday morning and immediately went to my computer and made a reservation. This is great, fun, and delicious. This is the tour guide's baby and he treats it right. The bus is very nice, the guide is exhuberant and knows his stuff. Anyone should love it, and you see sooooo much of Brooklyn, including Coney Island. He also has videos and music that are both enjoyable and informative. And you also get to eat at two excellent pizza places. I loved it. Enjoy!
