I had a great time! Our tour guide seemed to enjoy every facette of pizza! Not only were we treated to eating @ some of the best pizzeria's. We are treated their histories and able to sample some fresh 28 min old Mozzarella cheeze! Along the tour our guide was very informative and had a great sense of humor! Would definitely recommend this foot tour to anyone interested in great NY Pizza!

Scott was great - not much eating

The tour was fun and Scott was a really good guide who is extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable about Pizza:-) His enthusiasm was infectious and really made the trip fun. One thing to note - on this tour you only visit 3 pizzeria's and you have one slice of thin pizza at each so don't plan on getting "filled" up with Pizza. One from our tour had been on the bus tour and stated they visited many more pizzeria's and had a lot more to eat - so if you are going hungry thinking you will get filled up, you may be disappointed. All in all my daughter and I enjoyed the tour.

A must do on your next trip to NY. What a great way to see the streets of NY-eating Pizza and getting some great history of some of the NY storefronts that started the NY PIzza tradition. Scott is full of energy and info- he is a people's pizza person. He literally sleeps, eats and eats some more -PIZZA! You wont be disappointed - it is not a "Cheesy" tour- it is the real deal! Kudos to Scott!

Scott's enthusiasm for pizza is infectious. His knowledge of the history and stories behind the facade are incredibly impressive. The whole group had such a great time that we didn't even realize the tour went over the alotted time - we were in no rush to get out of there. I highly recommend the walking tour and am going to sign up for the Pizza Bus as well. Long Live Scott's Pizza Tours!

Scott's enthusiasm and knowledge made for a brilliant tour. He's a massive unashamed pizza 'geek' and was friendly and accomodating to everyone on the tour. The pizza places he took us to were great - in particular, Lombardi's... yum. That place is awesome. Would recommend this to anyone visiting New York for something different.

Fun, informative, better than you'd ever expect

Learn about the history of pizza, see where mozzarella is made, see the oldest pizza places in New York, listen to hilarious stories about pizza, and see where pizza making machines are made. Scott treats pizza like wine - knows how it's made, knows everything there is to know - about ovens, the way it's cooked, the families that make it, everything. Scott's knows everything about pizza, is always researching, always listening. take this tour. it's better than any new york city tour i've been on, maybe better than any tour i've been on. Scott has tried literally thousands of slices around the world. When an Israeli tourist walked by and asked for a brochure, he knew all about how Israeli pizza is delivered and how it tastes. After eating some of the best pizza in NY, we asked him what is his favorite of all time. Even though Scott has had some of the best and highest quality pizza, and pals around with the oldest pizza families in NY he's far from a snob or strict person about pizza. He always says if you like it, then it's good. His favorite pizza is from his hometown pizzeria in New Jersey, the slice he had when he was 8 years old.

I thought I loved pizza, but Scott takes the cake!

Scott's Pizza Tour was my favorite activity in NYC. He is so enthusiastic about pizza and pizza history that it was making me excited too. It was great to see all the sights and hear all his stories about the origins of pizza in America. And the slices along the way were great!

The History of Pizza in 3 Hours
Wed, Sep 30, 09   11:00 AM jdmckenzie Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Scott provides not only the history of pizza as we now know it but adds to the science of pizza-making, including the different gluten properties of summer and winter wheat, water pH in the New York water basin, etc. And he does this with incredible humor, personality, and FUN! The unique walk through Little Italy and Greenwich Village makes you feel like a part of the New York culture. Scott's devotion to you on this tour and his passion for pizza is unsurmountable.
