Hi - our guide and driver were excellent and the tour was lots of fun even though I was up on all of the TV and movies. One downside was that the DVD didn't work so we didn't get to see the video clips that I had seen mentioned. I really enjoyed getting to walk around parts of NYC that I had never seen before. |

Solid, but could be tweaked |

Got to see many of the places I wanted to see with the bus tour, but would have loved to have been able to stop and get out of the bus at a few more sites (like the Ghostbusters firehouse). Did not have much desire for flavored rice pudding, so would have preferred that time was spent doing something else. Kymberly did a more than solid job for us, keeping her cool when many things went wrong during the day (bad traffic, DVD problems). An open air bus would be better during warm days.
As for the NBC studio tour, it felt like a ripoff (saw only one studio, wasted time looking at photos in hallways). A bundled package with some other tour might be more appropriate for you. |

Bus tour great!! Studio tour underwhelming. |

We absolutely loved the bus tour. Gary was awesome!!!! The time flew by quickly and we were sorry when it was finished. Gary was very knowledgeable about everything we were seeing. We would highly recommend this portion of this activity.
As far as the studio tour, it was disappointing. We saw nothing but an empty SNL set. We thought we would be seeing more studios and interworkings of NBC. We would not recommend this portion of this activity.

We had a wonderful time on this tour! Our guide, Roseanne, was a blast and very informative. We saw all of the top sights as well as the tv and movie sights. I will highly recommend it to my clients when they visit NYC. |

Our guide Gary was very entertaining and knowledgeable in the areas we visited. Together with the movie clips, it helps you see where you are. My wife and I enjoyed it very much. |

Good but missed a few places |

I thought our tour guide was fabulous. I was pleased with a lot of places we saw - but thought we would see a lot more - such as the diner from seinfeld and places from When Harry Met Sally (since those were a couple of the places advertised). I was disappointed we didn't see them.
I loved seeing the Cosby sites and the apartment from Friends. |

I thought the movie tour was awesome, but the NBC tour was a dissapointment because the details on the web page said we would see more than 1 set, and we only saw 1. |
|
Good way to see NY |

This is a very fun tour to see while in New York. Our tour guide was great and knew a lot about the city. You get to see a lot of really cool sites and learn some interesting tidbits about the city. |

On location - great, NBC Studios, just OK |

We really enjoyed our On Location TV/movie sites tour. It was a great way to see several different areas of Manhattan. The movie clips shown on the bus were unexpected, and a nice touch. NBC Studios just wasn't very exciting. I knew it wasn't guaranteed, but I was really hoping to see the set of SNL and we didn't. I would not recommend the NBC Studios tour. |

The combo package was worth the money |

The movie/tv location tour was very enjoyable and informative. Watching the clips after gives you an idea of how great movies are made. Our guide was pleasant and knowledgable.. We did the studio tour the next day. The guides were pleasant and informative also. It was interesting to see the insides of a studio. We were in a small group which was nice. I was hoping to see a star or two, but the sets were shut down for production. still, all in all, I woud highly recommend this tour. |
