| I have done this tour before - back in 2006. The original tour was excellent, and I highly recommended it to friends and family. This time, the tour was just as good, however there were FAR too many people (approx 25) booked on it. Can I suggest that if there are over 12-14 people booked on one trip, two guides are used. |

| I liked the tour a lot. As a new New Yorker, my boyfriend and I wanted to take a tour to learn more about Central Park, with the perk of learning about the movies filmed there as well. The tour was great although it could have included a little more information about the park. I think our guide did a great job and was very enthusiastic. I would recommend it.
I am planning on taking your Sex and the City tour next. |

Wonderful way to get to know Central Park!

| We are from the West Coast and were visiting New York City. We always find that using a tour company is the best way to get to know any city that we are visiting. This was one of our best tours in New York. Our group was a managable size (about 20 individuals) and our tour guide (Jessica) was delightfully engaging and informative. The walking tour was beautiful. The length of time, distance, rest stops AND the weather were PERFECT! What a wonderful way to get to know the Big Apple!
Thank you |

Nice!

| The Central Park Movie Sites tour is definitely a tour that I would recommend to anyone that would like to indulge themselves in the beauty of New York City and Central Park. As shown by its constant use as a location for motion pictures and television shows, Central Park has so much to offer and it really is an attribute to New York City. Jessica, the tour guide was so knowledgeable and she made the tour really interesting. I forgot how much walking we actually did! I would definitely go on this tour again with more of my friends! |

| Our guide was really enthusiastic, she really knew her stuff and was very friendly (not over the top as some were on other tours we took). Ideal for any film fans! |

Great Experience

| This was a great tour that really let you explore Central Park and respect its beauty.
I would like to add a suggestion, and that is the tour guides need microphones. We had a group tour adding up to about 30 people and if you were in the back and not right up on the tour guide youcould barley hear her. So please consider giving microphones to the tour guides.
Other than that it was an amazing tour. |

Excellent local activity

| The clear advantage of this type of tour is having a local NY Person who is also involved with or has had experience in the industry ,and is thus very aware of the nuances and style required, and the type of person attending this tour and their interests in the world of film and TV. |
|
A little slower, please!

| This was a good tour, even though it was a rainy day. Our guide was pleasant and very knowledgeable and we learned not only about movie sites but interesting facts about Central Park itself.
The pacing of the tour could have been a bit slower to accomodate all group members. I was with friends in their 60's, very active hikers, but our tour guide was moving faster than was comfortable for us. There was also very little time to take pictures and keep up. She was about 15 minutes ahead of schedule on a two hour tour. She also said that two breaks were planned, but when we got there asked the group whether or not they wanted to stop. Some did, some didn't and it was a bit awkward for the group. She should have simply made the decision.
We took three tours this trip (all through Zerve) and while I would recommend it, I would do so with some hesitation. I had no such hesitation about the other two. |
