| The bus tour around NYC was very good. It was cloudy and rainy but we got around saw a bunch of locations and stopped for pizza. The guide was very good and very interactive. We are avid TV/Movie buffs and we learned a bunch from this tour. Plus we took a ton of pictures. Ran into some NY Yankees along the way and Scarlett Johannson 2 minutes after the tour!
However the NBC tour is not recommended. Some of the contact people were rude at NBC plus there were no breaks or pictures allowed plus you get searched. Let me save you some money. We only saw a short film clip of NBC history (which you could look up similiar clips on the internet), the MSNBC/NBC news sets (a desk, cameras and lights) and the SNL set (which is the size of my basement and was dark and full of junk). The guides were ok but rush you through and at the end you ask, "is that it"?
The same week we did this tour we went to the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Empire State Bldg, Yankee Game, China Town, Little Italy, Coney Island, Ripley's Museum, road in cabs, road the Subway and had a 4 hour lay over at Dulles Airport. The NBC tour was the least fun of all of those. |

Bus tour good, studio tour not worth going to.

| The TV/Movie tour in New York was very good. Our tour guide Gary was funny and
charming and informative. A nice combination of on and off stops. The pizza was
excellent. And the black and white cookies, a very nice treat. Enjoyed tour
very much.
The NBC studio tour, not worth it!! Very short, spent alot of time going thru security,
and on elevators. Although the pages were very pleasant. We did not
really see very much of a studio workings. Would not recommend the studio
tour. |

| Everyone in my family, 56, 49, 18, 18 years of age liked the group. Younger liked visiting the younger themed sites, older would have like some older movie sites included. Tour guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. |

| I thought the tour was amazing. Not only did we see tv/movie locations, but we got an awesome tour of NYC as well. Our tour guide as well prepared and really knew her information.
The only thing I would change on your site is the time.
We also did the NBC Studio Tour. On the ticket, the time said 3 1/2 hours. I assummed that was for both tours. That was for the bus tour only.
Anyway, I would definitely recommend this tour to others. GREAT JOB!!! |

| Even if you are not the biggest movie fan, it is a great way to get to all the interesting neighborhoods in New York. The info on the movies is an added extra. It is worth starting your trip in NY with this tour so you know which part you want to explore further later on. |

| Movie sites tour was excellent...full of fun sites. I would recommend taking pen and paper to help you remember sites, as some are passed very quickly and the guide is on to something new before you have a chance to take it all in. The movie clips were definitely a great help. |
