| We liked that it was interactive. The actors were very good at improv. The ending was a good surprise. I can't think of a better way to see New York. |

| My husband and I participated in this activity for "something different to do" in celebration of my birthday and a friends birthday. The four of us were joined by a mix of six strangers who were also looking for fun. It is a great deal of walking so take that into consideration when making plans. IT was also hot as blazes so we were actually thankful for some afternoon showers. The actors were great, the different bars and restaraunts accomodating. I would highly reccomend this activity, especially if you are able to go with friends as it makes it even more hilarious! |

| This was great! Its better if you can have all 10 of the party of your own friends. We went with just four..... and someone in the other group was very annoying. But the show itself and the actors were awesome. |

| Be prepared to walk, but what a great tour. All the actors are great, though we did approach one thinking he was part of the experience; he was just a run of the mill New Yorker acting very strange.
Really engaging, and the more you put your heart into it the better - let yourself go; pretend like a child and play. (I am 39, but my inner child came out).
Bit of a lottery on the group though, the others on ours were a mixed bag with some really not that interested which really took the edge off - hence four, not five stars.
This would be a perfect - and cheap - work get to know each other thing; two groups of eight an hour apart competing for bragging rights of working things out would be a super team builder.
You can tell the cast love it - they laugh and engage with you. They were superb with their wit and preparedness and improv skills were excellent.
It was hot, and I was genuinely concerned about one of the actors. He was a hero, even though much of the group was disinterested in his prop, he soldiered on and got the message to the people in the group who were interested. Just get the gut some sunscreen and a knackered hat.
Great stuff and I thoroughly recommend it to New Yorkers as much as foreigers like me (from Australia). |

| This was a fabulous experience and lots of fun! My sister and I took our Mom on this tour as a gift and weren't really sure what we were in for, even after reading reviews. But our experience had us laughing, searching, exploring and having the time of our lives through the tour. The characters we encountered did a wonderful job and we found ourselves really getting into playing our parts also. The tour took us through areas of New York that we wouldn't have ventured into ourselves, but now that we have been there, I know we will seek out these new areas when we visit. The tour takes groups of up to 10 people, so experiencing this and working along with other parties whom we just met enhanced the fun for us. We were happy to see that the children in the same group as us aged 8 thru 14 were able to participate and have just as much fun as the adults. Now we know we can bring our own children! I have been spreading the good word around to my friends and family and e-mailing the website to them so they can experience the fun, too! Thanks for a memorable time! |

| I used the show as a means to propose to my girlfriend. The staff was extremely accommodating and helped me plan everything in advance. My girlfriend was taken completely by surprise and the proposal went off without a hitch. I want to thank everyone associated with Accomplice for helping create a day that we will never forget.
I strongly, strongly recommend Accomplice: New York for anybody looking to try something different and have a little fun. |

| It was a great way to see different parts of the city - which some may not have seen previously. However, I think this was so great for us cause we all were excited to participate. It didn't blow my socks off but was definately a great way to spend the day with good friends. |

| Really more of a walking tour than a 'murder mystery' type of thing, but thoroughly enjoyed by all. Some very good performances as well! |

| Loved, loved, loved this show! It was a blast -- New York walking tour, mystery theatre, stand-up comedy all rolled into one! We liked it so much, my husband and I are going back with other friends to see the Greenwich Village one! Two suggestions for anyone participating: wear really comfortable shoes, and eat before you go. My breakfast wore off as we were walking through the open-air fish markets in China Town -- blech! Should've had lunch before embarking! |

| I was a bit apprehensive when we purchased these tickets before we departed for NYC.. I was wondering how such a reasonably priced ticket could be for real in NYC..I think not knowing the starting point, etc. ahead of time made me nervous..afterall it is nyc! This was very,very entertaining...we had alot of laughs and certainly went to places we wouldn't have found on our own. The people we met were terrific...what a great part each one had in this..and they were all way too "perfect"...hilarious would be a better description! If you are looking for alot of laughs and a bit of walking/sightseeing, you have to do this.. I hope they do different "versions" because I want to go again. |
