Tony was the best guide. He MADE the tour. His love and passion for Brooklyn radiated. I've taken similar tours in other cities (Chicago and Boston) and this one beats all of them. Hands down, this tour was one of my favorite activities while in NYC. I can't stop telling everyone about it.

What a marvelous way to see the sights of Brooklyn, New York and areas we never would have visited. Tony gave us a side of the New York area we never would have thought to see. It was one of the most enjoyable days touring this marvelous city. We had history, adventure and great pizza! We are delighted to have met Tony and want friends going to visit the area to have the same experience. Enjoyed his presentation, stories and love of the city!! Thank you Tony , you are a great host!!!

Fantastic unique tour
Sat, Apr 19, 08   11:00 AM jppatrick Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Other
I'm a big fan of pizza in the first place, which means that I suspected I'd enjoy the tour. Funnily enough, that's not what makes it so special. For sure, the pizza at Grimaldi's (walking past the queues outside) is fantastic, probably the best you'll ever have. The tour is made, though, by the enthusiasm of Tony, a Brooklynite through and through, who takes you to places famous from the movies and from mob killings. In case you don't remember the movies - don't worry, Tony plays clips in the very comfortable bus as you're going past the locations. Especially memorable are the Saturday Night Fever and French Connection clips - you're really there! This is probably the best tour I've ever done - my only criticism would be that it ended too soon! Well done Tony, I'm sure you'll enjoy much success!

Da Bomb!
Sat, Apr 19, 08   11:00 AM firecaptain1 Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
Having a real Brooklynite share the deep tradition of not only the place in history of pizza and its migration into NYC, but to hear the history of the neighborhoods was "Da Bomb." The sell point to this was the real life experience and pride the host had in his city, his bororugh , and more importantly his pizza selections. We aprpeciated the interacted not only during the tour but more impressive was his ability to sit with us while we ate and shared his views and inquired about ours. Class act!!!!!! This ranked right up their with our visit to the bronx to watch the Yankees beat Boston. I will definately repeat my afternoon spent with Tony, for both the food and his passion for his borough.

Absolutely amazing...makes me want to go back!

WOW. From the time of booking (I had questions) to pick up in the lovely modern van, was absolute perfection. Lucked into the best day weather wise in NY that weekend. Tony was amazing. Loved that you got to get out and explore. PIZZA stops amazing. I have walked Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan but did not know about area Tony took us to. This tour wants me to go and explore brooklyn more. Loved the MOVIE clips shown when you were in the area. Never felt rushed and Tony always had time for questions. Great humour too. MY only critique and it is a small one........I would have loved to had time to explore CONEY on boardwalk more, only about 5 min more to take some pics as we were walking with Tony and had to keep up to hear his history. LOVED IT! Cant wait to take friends next time in New York or other tours Tony does.

BY FAR THE BEST TOUR WE HAVE TAKEN
Fri, Feb 29, 08   11:00 AM bijoux Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
This was the best tour I have ever taken. Tony is so personable and he knows his Brooklyn, Saw things I would not have seen and learned a few things about Brooklyn I didnt know. Not to mention the pizza was great.. I felt like I was with a cousin getting the family tour of his hometown. We are sending our son and his wife to New York and are buying tickets to the tour for them also. Big recommendation . I would do it again.

Don't "fuhgettaboud" this tour
Fri, Feb 15, 08   11:00 AM DianaBoston Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
This is a FABULOUS tour that nobody should miss. It was extra special to me since my parents were born and bred in Brooklyn and seeing where they grew up, dated, and the streets where they walked had a very special meaning to me. Tony was a gracious, warm, witty, and wonderful guide. If there is something about the borough that he doesn't know, I don't know what it could be. The pizza was divine (the best I've ever had), the sights were awesome (Brooklyn Bridge, DUMBO park, streets were many a movie was filmed, Coney Island boardwalk), etc. etc. I could go on and on, but the bottom line is don't miss this tour when in NYC. It's very, very special.

Brought back memories.Went to Brighton beach & Coney Island as a child.Very thorough tour & the pizza was great.One problem the guy behind me was on the phone constantly.I turned a few times & told him how rude he was,as I couldn't hear what Tony was saying.Phones should be shut off during tour.Certainly have enough stops to use the phone then.

We loved this tour - Tony was incredible!!! We went with our son (who is 30) and his girlfried - he lives in Brooklyn and was amazed at how much he didn't know about it. The pizza was delicious - the best we've ever had. We will recommend this tour to everyone we know who's coming to NYC and look forward to more tours in the future. THANKS TONY !!!! and happy holidays!

interesting and different
Fri, Nov 30, 07   11:00 AM WEBCAN Female 60-69 International Tourist(s) Other
My husband and I highly recommend this tour as it is different, interesting and so well done. Tony is passionate about his "Brooklyn" and it shows. He loves what he does!! It's a great way to see a borough you probably wouldn't make an effort to see on your own. The history, movie scenes, and celebrety list add colour, while the Pizza adds the flavour!! Toronto, Canada

2nd Time Just as Great!
Fri, Nov 23, 07   11:00 AM cathywingo Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
My son and I took this tour Sept 06 and loved it so much we did it again this November with my sister and his girlfriend. We all loved it. Tony is passionate and very knowledgeable about Brooklyn. He is the most gracious, accomodating host for a tour. Everything is as stated in the description and runs like clockwork. The pizza is delicous! Tony mentioned 2 upcoming tours; Christmas lights and a gangster tour. I will definately do both. There is something in this tour for everyone!

I loved it so much, that I'm going back in April!
Fri, Nov 23, 07   11:00 AM donnademarta Female 60-69 Local Other
First, let me say something about the owner/founder, Tony Muia. This is a guy who was born to do this. His enthusiasm, knowledge, presentation, warmth was just overwhelming -- I felt I knew him my whole life. Being Italian from Little Italy, The Bronx, I was brought up on pizza and I will say, unequivically, the pizzas we had were the best I have ever tasted! The places we stopped, the history he gave about them, and the history of Brooklyn itself while the bus was going around, was outstanding. The slide show, the music, his funny personality -- I could go on and on -- but I think you get my drift: the tour was delicious -- both in food and knowledge. We are actually going again in April, 2008 and adding some friends. If you can ask Tony, I would love a few more brochures about the Pizza Tour to mail to my friends. Maybe someone can call me and I'll give my address. Tony: I wish you the very best! Good luck to you.

Excellent way to see Brooklyn
Mon, Nov 12, 07   11:00 AM JMillhollin Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
This was a once in a life time trip for my Mother and myself. We wanted to see as much of New York as possible. So difficult if you don't know someone. Tony was our tour guide and he was excellent. We saw more of Brooklyn then we ever thought we would. The movie clips throughout the tour were a lot of fun, made things so much more real. The pizza was AWESOME, we had spumoni at L & B that, according to my Mom was GREAT!!!!. This is a must for pizza lovers and anyone who wants to see the real Brooklyn. Thanks Zerve and thanks Tony for an excellent time.
