| Despite the limited tour at NBC, the On Location tour was great. Jessie, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and energetic about the tour. |

Great tour for movie/TV enthusiasts

| Great way to see all of the hot-spots for any fans of TV/movies... Even if you're not a big fan of TV, its a good way to see the city - but much more enjoyable if you're a tv/movie fan. Tour guide and bus driver were great. |

loads of fun

| Great coverage of Manhattan, in the time alotted.
Enjoyed the video footage, of the area toured, as well. The tour guide was knowledgeable & enthusiastic! She offered a great deal of tid bits about each area - lots of behind the scenes info... She was also very gracious about taking pictures of us & offering to re-take them, if need be, at the various site stops. She had an upbeat & encouraging tone, when taking the pictures, for so many tour members.
A little dififcult to hear the tour guide, over the A/C (One person mentioned this & we he decided not to return to the tou bus, after a stop off, because he was having so much difficulty hearing, over the A/C.)
Loved the pizza stop & cookies along the way.
Also, great combo with the NBC tour - - - everyone should book them together. it was so affordable & convenient, in terms of meeting/pick up times.
Would def. book again, if traveling with someone who has not done the tour. |

Film portion was great.

| Greg, our guide, was lovely. Enthusiastic, nice etc.
NBC portion was very bad. Disappointing. girls spoke too fast, as if they wanted to rush us out.
I am giving five stars just for the bus tour |

Great way to see N.YC.!

| We enjoyed both tours very much. The Movie and TV sites tour took us all over the metropolitan NY area, with several stops along the way to get out of the bus and view some of the sites more closely. The NBC Studio Tour would have been more interesting if some shows weren't on summer hiatis. Several of the NBC anchors and reporters were covering the Olympics in Beijing, China. The tour was somewhat of a disappointment because the NBC tour guide didn't seem particularly enthusiastic in her descriptions of the various points of interest. |

awesome!

| We had a great experience. Our tour guide was wonderul and the bus was comfortable. We have taken bus tours in the past and were unable to hear the information or see all the sites. This was not the case with this tour. We did not miss a word and saw every site. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Big Apple. |

Must do while in NYC

| My mother, sister and I went for a girls weekend to NYC and while we were there we did the tour of NYC movies and NBC studio tour. We had a great time! Very interesting and saw lots of cool hot spots where classic movies were filmed. New York is such a beautiful city it was a great way to see the city and get some interesting information from as well. The NBC studio tour was fun! Would have loved to have seen some of the cast members from SNL but I guess they are off during the summer months. Regardless it was an awesome tour and highly recommend it (great for kids too). |
