With things returning to life after 2020, it was difficult to find a guided food tour. Luckily, I found this one and they were happy to accommodate me. I knew going into this, that it's probably going to be a bit different with shops and restaurants opening back up, so I kept an open mind. Maurita was extremely helpful with planning since I really had no idea what was available. We went to 2 pizzerias and 2 breweries. Some people like to run through as many as possible, but since it was just the two of us and we were having a great time, I definitely didn't want to rush through anything. The two pizzerias included Vinnie's and Screamer's. The two breweries included Brooklyn Brewing and Keg And Lantern. All of which were unique and showcased two very different sides of their respective craft. Keep in mind, I was a solo traveller and your experience may vary. This is a walking beer and pizza tour, not a history of Brooklyn tour. You're sharing a food and drinking experience with a local resident. You will have a good time because beer and pizza make things better. I'm defiantly looking forward to another return to the area and I will defiantly take this tour again. I would highly recommend it.

This tour was such a treat. We did the four hour tour with Olga. It was worth every penny. Olga was a kind, intelligent person. She made sure we were engaged and having fun. I will certainly be booking another of her tours in the future. The best thing about this tour, outside of Olga, was how exclusive it felt. We passed dozens of group tours, and you could tell they were limited in what they could do because of the size of the groups. We were able to move in and out of smaller spaces to see some off the beaten path stuff. It felt like we had a “friend” in New York, showing us around.
