Very entertaining

Brilliant format and a very entertaining 3-4 hours. Plus you get to see bits of New York you probably wouldn't go to on your own. Patsy's pizza was the best.

A tasty slice of New York!

We loved the pizza tour. Scott is great - really enthusiastic and friendly and he makes the tour both fun & relaxed. The format of the tour is informal and you are free to ask whatever questions occur to you and to discuss a wide variety of topics so long as there is a link to pizza! It was a privilege to taste the different kinds of pizza and to visit out of the way authentic pizzerias which we would never have visited on our own. One thing though, don't go expecting to eat loads of pizza as you get a slice in each place so less than a full pizza per person. It was plenty for me but I think my husband could have eaten more!

Heard about the tour on Tripadvisor and gave it a shot. I am so happy i took the gamble as it was also a great way for me to see the city for the first time! Scot knows his stuff and is so friendly, i loved every part of the trip. Also the people i met on the tour were top notch as well! Don't hesitate, you will have a fantastic time and the pizza is delicious! -MD

We loved this tour. We had been to New York several times, but this was our first time on Scotts Pizza Tour and we loved it. Scott is very enthusiastic and knowledgable about Pizzas and anything related to Pizzas. We went on a bus tour around Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens and tasted some wonderful Pizzas. Highly recommended for anyone, especially if you enjoy your Pizza.

A Fun Tour With a Difference

A must-do while you are in New York. Scott is so enthusiastic about the pizza and you actually learn a lot of interesting facts and tips. He introduced us to Pizzerias we would never have found whilst being there as tourists. Also got to travel around NYC in a bright yellow school bus. Highly recommend it.

Complete satisfaction

The beauty of this tour is that it's a complete change of atmosphere from the more conventional tourism you find on a city break. Instead of a) planning your own itinerary and b) hauling yourself about, you get the lovely Scott and his patient driver Ronnie looking after you, and all you have to do is follow them around from bus to pizzeria to bus to pizzeria (to bakery, even if the last thing you need is more food). As a result, you can relax, chat, listen and eat. The pizza is good pizza. Not necessarily great pizza - perhaps NY style isn't entirely my thing - but authentic and made with love by family firms, all established NY characters. But what makes the tour is Scott - friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable (although he doesn't bore you with facts and history, you feel he could probably spend hours and hours pontificating on every nuance of pizza) and relaxed. You come away wishing he was your best friend. This vibe also translates to the other tourgoers, and it's all very friendly and informal. Four and a half hours may seem a long time to eat four slices of pizza, but it's just right. It's also a great way to get out of Manhattan, if only for a couple of hours, and the school bus is a brilliant and characterful idea. The tour was definitely a highlight of the trip, and left me feeling warm - and full - all over.

I have been living in NY for about 4 years, and always look for fun things to do when relatives come to town. It's a wonderful 4.5 hr experience, that is filled with Scott's pizza wisdom and eating delicious slices. I would recommend this tour to anyone! It's GREAT!

We GREATLY recommend this tour to ANYONE that loves NYC. The pizzas are excellent. The restaurants are worth the trip. Scott makes the tour, without Scott we would not recommend as highly ! Do it while Scott still gives the tours himself ! There should be a 6 star category !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband and I recently went on Scott's Pizza Tour while we were visiting NYC from Australia. We had such a great time and really enjoyed Scott's enthusiasm for pizza. Fornino's in Williamsburg, Brooklyn definitely had the best pizza of the whole tour. I would seriously recommend this tour to anyone!

An entertaining and most informative tour. Scott's encyclopedic knowledge of pizza gave us a new appreciation of this culinary art-form, and his enthusiasm, together with the warm welcome in every venue, made this a most enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.
