Brooklyn is a sprawling borough rich with culture, culinary legends, and iconic waterfronts, and A Slice of Brooklyn Bus Tours offers a unique way to taste its diverse character. Their award-winning Pizza Tour runs about 4.5 hours, letting you sample two of the borough’s most celebrated pizza styles—Neapolitan at Grimaldi’s in DUMBO and Sicilian at L&B Spumoni Gardens in Bensonhurst—without the notorious long waits.

From the breathtaking vantage points at the Brooklyn waterfront, guests get unrivaled views of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan skyline — perfect for photography enthusiasts.
