Brooklyn, NY (PRWEB) November 1, 2007 -- Manhattan? Fuhgettaboudit! Brooklyn’s own A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour was recently featured on NBC’s Today Show in a segment entitled " Brooklyn’s Best Pizza Joints (http://video.msn.com/video.aspx/?mkt=en-US&brand=msnbc&vid=00c4110e-3c5a-4374-9871-fc996c7355ec&wa=wsignin1.0) ".

According to NBC’s Today Show correspondent Jenna Wolfe, “Some cities boast that they’ve got the best pizza….cities like Phoenix, Chicago and Manhattan. Well we met a guy named Tony from here in Brooklyn who’s on a mission to spread the word about what really is the best pizza.”

Owner and operator Tony Muia, dubbed “Mister Brooklyn himself” during the segment, couldn’t be happier. “There’s no other tour that covers Brooklyn, and its native food, as comprehensively as my tour and I think the Today Show segment really showed that.”

For two years in a row, A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour (http://www.bknypizza.com/) continues to be the ONLY guided bus tour that allows tourists to hop aboard a bus in Manhattan and be transported to one of the most famous...and infamous...places in the world while stopping at two of its award-winning pizzerias: Grimaldi's in the DUMBO section of Brooklyn for their thin crust, Neapolitan style pizza and L&B Spumoni Gardens in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn for their thicker, Sicilian style pizza.

The 4 ½ hour tour also includes an audio-visual historical tour of many of Brooklyn's diverse neighborhoods, landmarks, points of interest and famous movie locations that have made Brooklyn legendary and inspired Lonely Planet, the world's largest independent travel publisher, to name it as one of the top 10 hottest travel destinations for 2007.

Since it started in August of 2005, A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour has received local, national and international press from such outlets as CNN, the New York Times, the London Times, the Lonely Planet guide, USA Today, SAVEUR, Food Arts and the Associated Press as well as an appearance on the YES Network's "Ultimate Road Trip" show.

A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour has received a consistent 5 star rating (http://www.zerve.com/BKNYpizza/BKNYtour/rating?page=1) from the countless number of people from the United States and around the world who have taken the tour.
