The tour provides one with the opportunity to learn and eat pizza. The walk is not hectic and Scot has the ability to be heard over the din of what qualifies ass a noisy experience.
I think the pizza we tried was mostly generic; however, Lombardi's at the corner of Mott and Spring Streets in lower Manhattan wins hands down.
There should be an included soft drink with the pizza. Water does not do much for pizza and to pay $6 for a bottle of beer is just too much.
The quality of the pizza was not altogether great but Lombardi's is a pizza I would like to see other NYC restaurants. |

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! |

We loved Scott's Pizza tour. Scott was both passionate and knowledgeable. We loved learning all about the history of Pizza, how it is made, the ingredients used and a tour of little Italy and beyond. And the Pizza was delicious. We would recommend it to anyone and will. |

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. |

Myself and my sister went on the tour. We enjoyed it alot more than we thought we would. Scott is very enthuastic about pizza and the tour itself was very interesting. we walked all through little italy and the village so it was a nice way to see this part of new york and scott gave us a brief history about the areas, of course pizza related! I intend on taking this tour again the next time i return to new york for deffo!! |

Informative, enjoyable and tasty. Scott is a fountain of information about pizza in general and the history and present of pizza in New York in particular. More importantly, he is passionate about pizza and makes the tour enjoyable for even the most wary. We even went back to one of the pizzaria's we visited with Scott because we enjoyed it so much. Definitely recommended. |

This was a great tour, very fun and educational. The pizza was very good and Scott was really fun. We saw more than the pizza places. I would recommend this tour for anyone who likes pizza and wants to do something a little different in New York. |
