Scott's Pizza Tours

So fun and educational and of course tasty!!

We were in NYC for a long weekend and took the Pizza Bus Tour on Sunday. We have been to NYC several times and were looking for insider information. Scott is the absolute authority on all things pizza. His knowledge and enthusiasm on the subject is unmatched....maybe a little obsessed, but that's a good thing. We visited two pizza joints in Manhattan and another two in Brooklyn all while traveling on a big yellow school bus. We visited kitchens, saw ovens, talked with owners and servers, saw ingredients. This is not a tour of the 'best' pizzas in NYC, but rather a contrast and compare tour. Coal ovens, wood ovens, natural gas, fresh mozzarella, aged mozzarella, bufala mozzarella, tomatoes, cooked sauce...The 'best' pizza is personal preference, but Scott is able to tell you why you like one and why you don't care for another. Personally, I liked them all. Boring, I know, but I'm OK with that. Scott's enthusiasm is infectious and he had could recall visiting pizza places in just about every city represented on our tour. He also gave us a spot on recommendation for great Chinese dumplings! I would do this tour again in a minute on our next trip to NYC.

I did the tour a few days into my trip and it was the best tour I had gone on. Scott is funny and knows everything there is about pizza. He made us laugh for 3 hours and I would recommend this tour to any of my friends and family.

We planned a last minute (about two week's lead time) to NYC. I wanted to show my son something other than the typical tourist stops in an interesting and fun way.... and we got to do it via a yellow school bus while eating our fave food! PIZZA! My son's a well-traveled kiddo, but typcially falls asleep on any type of tour. NOT on the Pizza Bus! A soundtrack of cool music, surrounded by cool people (it seemed like many were locals... NY/NJ, with a couple of tourists like us!) made the bus-ride really fun. And Scott! He's a funny guy who found the perfect ratio of talking to music-playing while on the bus. Scott clearly loves pizza, knows all about, and is respected by the owners/servers at the establishments we visited. I learned so much about pizza and my son had a blast! Next time we're in NYC, we're bringing Dad on the Pizza Bus!

Who would think there's so much to a really good pizza! Scott you opened my eyes! I'm a very big skeptic when we started off. And as the tour came to the end I was transformed into a believer, that a small disk with cheese and sauce on it can bring people from all over the world together for 4 1/2 hours and have a really goood time. The tour was fantastic, your knowledge and humor was the mozzarella on the pizza. I will do this tour again with visting family and friends.

Scott is great and his enthusiasm for pizza is contagious! My boyfriend and I took his parents for their Christmas present - everyone had a great time!!

Scott's Pizza Tours deserves every accolade it has (and will) receive. Scott's passion for pizza, entertaining manner, and incredibly in-depth knowledge ("from tip to lip")make the tour great fun. I will never eat pizza the same way again! The bus was fun, but my group can't wait for warmer weather so we can try one of the walking tours, as well. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting NYC or anyone living there who thinks they know pizza...!

thoroughly enjoyed the pizza experience with a knowledgable, enthusiastic guide in Scott.

Scott's Pizza Tour is some of the best 3 hours you can spend in NY. Scott is knowledgeable, funny and the Pizza is the best. I don't think I will ever be able to eat Pizza hut or Domino's again. I highly recommend this tour...even on a snowy day the pizza kept us warm.

We were in New York City for a holiday during the week between Christmas and New Year's and, while it is certainly a beautiful time of year to be in the city, it was incredibly crowded everywhere we went! We soon found out that indoor activities (like museums and attractions - even stores and many restaurants) involved lineups outside in the cold ... not a great option anytime, but certainly not with two kids (aged 12 and 8). I'm soooooo glad that I had booked Scott's Pizza Tour ahead of time. It was the highlight of our trip! Scott is the complete enthusiast about pizza; we learned more about pizza in those 3 hours than I had thought possible. It was the perfect family outing - a walking tour and lunch (3 slices of pizza from 3 different restaurants) all rolled into one. I have come back to Toronto telling everyone I know that if they are going to New York, and especially if they are a family with kids, to book a spot on Scott's Pizza Tour. Next time, we'll plan to be there on a weekend, so we can go on the bus tour to the boroughs! We had a fabulous time and would recommend this tour in a heartbeat.

After reading ALL the positive reviews of Scott's Pizza Tour, we decided to go for it and glad we did. It did not disappoint. It was great to see NY and it's great pizza through Scott's eyes. He is very enthusiastic about his pizza! He was a great tour guide and just plain fun to hang out with for three hours. Would recommend this for anyone.....we had a blast!

Scott is absolutely fantastic. Truly knowledgable about pizza, ovens, and New York in general. Ate lots of different pizza styles and went all over NY- Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Harlem. Our family had a great time, definitely a highlight of our vacation! Thanks Scott!

Excellent informative and witty tour.gave us a taste of other areas of New York we would probably not seen ourselves.Not to mention great pizza such that we are forever spoilt.

Everytime I eat pizza now, I want to know more about it! How and where it was cooked.. where the tomatoes came from -- aged or fresh mozzarella??? This is Scott's fault. Scott offers a great tour of New York City and provides delicious examples of great pizza. I will definitely give the Pizza Bus a ride next time!!

Scott was great fun and had loads of information about the fabulously tasty pizza's, their history and the history of the ingredients. Fun test at the end for a chance to win some goodies. Great fun travelling on the school bus. Would be even better if you could purchase the hoody Scott wears whilst on the tour.
