| It was alright. Thought we would be seeing more bigger, more well known sites rather than just smaller scenes and what not. |

| My family enjoyed this tour. At times we hadn't seen some of the movies/tv shows that were being referenced, but we were seeing some of the most famous sites in New York. I recommend the combo tour which combines this tour with the NBC Studio Tours. |

Great Fun!!

| What a high energy, memorable, interesting, and informative way to spend a few hours in New York! We loved the tour. Comfortable new bus; lots of stops and photo ops. Our teenage daughter especially enjoyed the Gossip Girls locations. When combined with the NBC Studio Tour, this is a great bargain. We're very satisfied customers!!! |

| The NBC Studio and Bus Tour was a fun experience, but make sure you're prepared to sit for a very long time.
Also, we had a great guide- which could have completely made or broken the experience. |

| We loved the movie and tv tour as a group but nbc tour was a little weak. I was expecting to see more studios and at least a studio where the broadcast is going on but we couldn't get to see any. Thanks! |

| My students enjoyed visiting the sites as much as the chaperones did. Brian was extremely affable. His knowledge was obvious, and his enthusiasm was contagious. I would not hesitate to bring another class here next year. |

| We went on the combo tour first the bus tour, govisitod clean coach, toilet on board. Tour guide very knowledgeable and trying to involve the passangers. However even as a big film watcher, many of the clips shown and sights were from films i hadn't seen, some not even heard of. Thought would be more emphasis on famous blockbusters. We were sat near the front and the driver was on his cell phone most of the trip (not making me feel safe!)
We made our own way to the NBC studios, and waited and waited (we were told we had to arrive 45 mins early, however no other guests did, and we didn't congregate till 5 mins before. I found this tour very interesting and enjoyable.
I would recommend the NBC tour to any future visitors, however the main 'famous film' sights of NYC are seen on any other tour bus. |

| Our tourguide Kimberly was entertaining and shared some great tidbits throughout the tour. It was a wonderful way to see some nifty movie locations as well as the city itself. Combo with the NBC tour was an excellent value. |

| I did this tour as a package with the NBC Studio Tour.
After I booked the package, I had to call NBC Studios Tour to reserve a time. The girl said I needed to bring a printed confirmation. I said I didn't have it cause I didn't have access to a printer in NYC. She said I NEEDED it. So I had to go to a store to use the internet and print it out. So I had to spend extra money.
When I checked in, the girl didn't even see it!! I was upset. It seemed like the people working at the tour department don't know what's going on. The girl on the phone wasn't all that friendly either.
I had been on the tour a couple times before. I just booked this package cause my girlfriend had never been on it. I've always enjoyed the tour but I didn't like it this time. The two tour guides (pages) just seemed bored. Also we only saw one studio, the SNL studio. Before I had just walked into and back out but we sat down and the pages talked more about it. But other than that, the tour wasn't all that interesting.
So if you book only one tour, just do the movie tour, unless you've never been on the NBC tour.
The movie tour was great. Brian, our guide was very friendly. Helped us take pictures at different locations. He knew a lot about movies. On the bus we saw clips of movies of places we would be seeing. We got off a few times to see the locations up front. Front of the Cosby house. Washington Square Park. The Friends building. We stopped by an excellent pizza place for lunch. Had to get it togo which was fun.
Overall, it was a fun time. Would recommend it if you have time. Wouldn't say it's a must do but if you are looking to do something different, you should do thi. |
