One of the main things we wanted to try in NYC was the pizza, so we booked Scott's Sunday Pizza Bus as a way to see a new part of the city and to learn about pizza. We had a great time on the pizza tour and would highly recommend this tour for pizza lovers. Our tour took us to Brooklyn where we got to try some great pizza. Scott certainly has a love of pizza and his enthusiasm is infectious. I was impressed with how he can wrangle everyone and pick places seemingly on the fly. The goodies we got were a nice touch and we enjoyed our group. The tour was not rushed and I felt we got plenty of time at each place to enjoy the pizza. You will be full by the end! I would book this tour again if I was in the city, since no two Sunday tours are the same.

We set up a private tour for 4 and other couple couldn’t make it, so my wife and I had Scott to ourselves for the evening. Went to three places and learned a ton…Scott has deep knowledge at so many levels about ingredients, processes, history, relationships of who moved where back in the 20’s and how the best pizza I had in NJ was tied to another pizzeria in New York, etc. Scott improvised locations based on our feedback and was very thoughtful to get in orders in advance to make our experience seemless. My wife’s choice for Chicago deep dish with pepperoni and sausage at Emmitts on MacDougal was the winner. As a bonus, tour started just a block away from 177 Bleeker St so in addition to some great Neapolitan at Song E Napoli I was able to have a strange experience before the tour even started :). Lots of fun and a wonderful evening!

Can’t recommend this tour highly enough! It’s not just a pizza tasting. You get the history & science of pizza as well as an inside look at various methods of preparing and baking pizza. Loved that we got a personal tour with David who was excited to share his enthusiasm for and expert knowledge of pizza. He was great to spend time with and quick to offer other recommendations/NYC insights. We really appreciate that despite our slower-season/weekday group being small, the tour honored our reservation and didn’t cancel on us, as we have experienced on other trips/other guided groups. Thank you for a fun time!

Yes we learned a TREMENDOUS amount of knowledge about pizza in NYC from our very enthusiastic guide Scott. BUT.....at 90 bucks a head (for the "long" SUN tour (start about 11:30, end about 4)), it was not worth the money....we ate 4 slices of pizza total at 4 different pizzerias in financial district, East Harlem, Long Island City, and Sunnyside Queens. The pizza was quite good at every place.

What can be said that hasn't already been shared. This experience was brilliant. I was welcomed from the outset and engaged throughout. Scott combines passion, enthusiasm and an immense amount of knowledge about pizza to this wonderful tour. He provides insights not only about pizza but the history of NYC and the people behind each pizza. Each stop was more than a slice - was a lens into what makes pizza a prominent part of our global culture. And of course, each pizza was different and tasty.

Excellent tour guide (Dan), informative, fun, good sized group (16 max walking or ~30 max bus) with 3 very distinct locations for three pizza styles (NY, Neapolitan, and Sicilian). Big portions, you won't go hungry. Walking 5-10 minutes per stop and plenty of subways nearby to get to/from your tour. A wonderful experience for travels and locals! We were from Long Island, have always loved NY pizza and still recommend this fantastic tour group. 10/10 wish they had other locations/food options - I'm thinking Boston cannoli next. Leaves you craving more!

This was in the top 3 things we did in NYC! We all loved it! We did the Greenwich tour with Amy and she was fantastic! After our first stop, she took us to a place that served Sicilian and Grandma style pizza at the request of one of the members of our group and it was amazing! It was great that she could cater to our requests and still pull off a fantastic tour. All the pizza we had was amazing! I would highly recommend this tour! Our teens loved it, I loved it and the younger kids on the tour also loved it. There was something for everyone!

Scott is a self-made pizza maven. With no formal food training, he knows all about the process and excels at informing all of his guests on his tour about the making of pizza.

I am an admittedly pizza snob, coming from New Haven Ct. So, while the pizzas were good. I am still partial to New Haven Apizza like Sally's adn Roseland Apizza, and to a lessor degree Pepe's.

But, Scott's tour is worth it. He goes out of his way to understand your thoughts. We tried four places, and one was so special I would go back to that one. And, I did like a second one, but they don't offer anchovies as a topping, so hard to go back there.

Scott has a great personality. Take the Sunday 4 1/2 bus tour trip if considering.

Scott was friendly, enthusiastic and engaging as soon as we met him, we visited one restaurant in Manhattan, the rest in Brooklyn. All pizzas were amazing, all made and cooked in different ways. We found out about flours, tomatoes, it was fascinating, as was visiting different parts of Brooklyn which we would not done by ourselves. Lovely to share the experience with fellow travellers.m, a great day!

It was $60 per person including children and we only got one small slice at each of the 4 pizza places. We spent $240 for a family of 4. I was starving after each place and was expecting to eat more. Drinks were not covered in that price either. For $240 go to a fancy 5 star place. It was not worth the price.
