I found this place from a friend's post on Facebook and while I'm a pretty picky eater, the Pizza Bus sounded right up my alley. I was a little concerned about even my pickiness with pizza toppings but they were very accomodating to myself and another and it wasn't an issue at all. For our tour, there were 16 of us and we had leftovers you could take at almost every stop. We hit four places, each with a different version of pizza, including a very thin cracker crust, New York style and wood fired. All were good with some better than others depending on your tastes and preferences. The night finished with a stop for gelato, which for this first timer was delicious. Sandy was our tour guide and was very informative telling us about the pizzas we were eating along with some back story on the places. Throw in a little local history and I have to say I learned a few things. Sandy also shared some personal stories and made a point to talk to the individual groups on the tour as well
The tour itself is fast paced but not rushed. Your food is ready when you get there or shortly after and you spend about 20 minutes at each location. I consider myself a drinker and inquired about the $20 drink option and was glad I decided against it for a couple reasons. First, you don't really have time to have more than one drink at each stop and the prices charged when there were reasonable and I proably saved a few dollars just buying them as we went. Plus, you get plenty of food and I was glad I chose to fill up on pizza rather than beer.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour or their other ones for my more adventurous friends and family. I can almost guarentee someone on my Xmas list will be getting tickets for one of them. |

This was such a unique way to enjoy pizza in Milwaukee! Our tour guide, Sandy, was awesome, and even taught both of us local Milwaukeeans some facts about the city that we never knew before! We had a wonderful time, and definitely plan to try out their Bloody Mary tour next. ***TIP*** Do not stuff yourself with pizza at the first place you go to...no matter how good it is! You will be fed more pizza than you can possibly handle, so pace yourself!! |

My husband and I had a nice experience, and enjoyed all of the history about Milwaukee as well as the variety of pizza. We had plenty to eat, found some places that we'll definitely return to, and liked ending the night with some gelato. If you want something different to do, love pizza and talking to new people, give this tour a try. |

As first time visitors to Milwaukee, my husband and I decided to try something new for us. We booked the tour online and hoped that we would meet some interesting people, learn about the city and enjoy great food. We were not disappointed at all. The tour guide and driver of our little bus were friendly, knowledgeable and very accomodating (thanks Steve). The 4 pizza places were great. The food was ready when we arrived and there was plenty. Each type of pizza was a little different, and delicious. The tables were set and we felt very welcomed. As we were driven from one place to another, we heard details about the city, the people who settled there, and the changes taking place. Right from the start we chatted with the other guests and maintained a high level of conversation throughout the evening. It was a fun way to see a lot without having to drive ourselves around. |

I took my husband on the Pizza Tour for his birthday. He is a hardcore pizza lover and I thought this would be a great way for him to try some new pizza spots out. We made 4 stops, plus a gelato shop to end the evening. We were part of a very large tour, most of whom were all one group of friends. Although our tour guide Steve was awesome, we could barely hear him on the bus while only being 2 feet away because the majority of the group was so loud. He was starting to look a little exasperated (who could blame him) but was too nice to say anything so my husband got up and asked the group who didn't care to listen to the Milwaukee history potion of the tour to be respectful and keep it down. After that, it was much more enjoyable as those of us in the front could hear again. Steve was very knowledgeable and entertaining to listen to. All the stops we made had unique and delicious pizza and we didn't leave hungry whatsoever. In fact, i didn't even eat at the last place because I was so full and had eaten there before. I would recommend this tour to anybody who loves pizza and learning about Milwaukee! |

The tour was great, but it would have been much more enjoyable during the daylight hours. I would recommend taking this tour in the summer when it is light out later or during the afternoon.
It was the perfect amount of food! |

I just went on the pizza tour with a nephew 30 years younger than me. This was a great way to spend the evening and explore corners of Milwaukee. Our tour group included people of all age groups and everyone enjoyed it equally. We paced ourselves throughout the night and were satisfied and full at the end. It was fun to try 4 different styles of pizza and figure out what you like the most. Almost challenging as they all were great. And the gelato at the end was a true treat! It is so convenient- once you get there you are chauffeured around. Steve, our guide, amused us and taught us a lot about Milwaukee that we really didn't know. My 24 year old nephew really enjoyed it. This is a great family activity across any age group- who doesn't like pizza? Great way to spend a Saturday night. I highly recommend taking the tour. |
