| This was a great, unique adventure, but it *is* a little bit pricey for a weekend afternoon activity. If you can part with the cash (or better yet, someone else is paying!), then it's fantastic. The actors were hilarious, and you're always wandering around wondering who's in on the game. BRING AN UMBRELLA -- there was no forecast for rain, but the continuous drizzle didn't stop the show. And we got wet (we still had fun, though). Also, a camera is very helpful and a great way to record the adventure. You MUST suspend disbelief and engage w/ the actors in order for this to work. NOT fun for cynics or too-cool-for-school types. |

| I brought my staff (we work in education) on the activity as a teambuilder during our annual fall training week. 3 of my staff were brand new to NYC and this was a great way for them to learn the West Village and to see lots of fun things and places. Lots of interaction so we all got to know each other. The actors were GREAT! |

| The Accomplice The Village was a great start to the day segueing into the night. But I wouldn't recommend going in 100 degree weather & 90% humidity since you're constantly on the move. It was engaging, funny & clever. The actors were great, some even hilarious. The plot although confusing at times (as to what we were supposed to do) all came together in the end with the big "A-HA!, lightbulb moment".
You have to be open to some parts being corny & hokey - but that's all part of the charm...we were all so into it that we approached a man in an orange shirt thinking he was part of the play. Needless to say we all had a good laugh and I think orange-shirt man was happy to be approached by a group of women. |

| A friend of mine had read about this somehow and suggested that I give it a try while I was visiting from CA. Just reading the reviews alone had me all excited to participate. You get to see the sites, as well as mingle with new people you're grouped with. I want to say more but I dont want to give too much away. Just think of it like a Game of Clue only its not the board game. You're actually interacting physically!! I totally think its a must do activity for tourists as well as locals! It was an AWESOME experience and definitely one of the highlights of my visit to NYC. |

| It was my friends and my first time in New York and we are fans of mystery and detective stories so we figured this would be a great activity. We got to see part of the city and be detectives at the same time!
The story line was great and well put together and the interaction was great also.
I recommend Accomplice: The Village one hundred percent.
One piece of advice is allow yourself to fully interact with the actors, doing this makes the activity more fun. It was also cool that we got to meet and talk to one of the creators of Accomplice: The Village.. |

| Ok...the idea is an interesting one...but just not worth over $50 a person. We had assumed that the tour would have provided a little more food and drink along the way, where all we had was a beer, a coffee, and some nacho chips. We had expected to experience the Village with its history and ambiance and were just too caught up in the plot and racing around so that we finished in time. We did think, however, that it was an interesting idea and had its merit. We even made some friends along the way. Perhaps $25 a person would have been more appropriate. For a couple that's looking to just walk around the village, popping in and out of bars and restaurants....perhaps even shopping along the way, this is not for you. |

| I decided that I wanted to do something different for my birthday so I came with some friends. We had a really nice time. We were paired up with another group of 3 who knew each other and we all really got along. I recommend this if you enjoy mystery and intrigue. The actors were great and their improv skills are top notch. |

| I went with a group of friends for a birthday celebration and we had a great time. We were joined by another group of people who knew each other and we quickly bonded. The actors involved were a lot of fun and, being in the Village, you never know who is actually part of the show and who is just spending the day in the park! |
