| I would recommend this tour for those who love TV and Movies and want to see more of the city.
I had been to New York a couple times before to see different shows on broadway but never stayed overnight. When my boyfriend and I decided to go for the weekend I wanted tour more of the city(other than just Time Square) but also wanted to do a tour that we both would like (plus I really wanted to see the "Friends" apt building). Our tour guide Brian was amazing. He was comical, heplful, informative, and kept us entertained. I liked the idea that when we would visit a landmark from a certain movie or TV show, they would play the scene from TVs on the bus. That way we were able see what the landmark looked liked in that movie or TV scene. Brian was helpful with providing information not only about the different landmarks but also about the city itself and what the different areas in the city are like. I thought this tour was fun because you you able to see all the different tv and movie sites but you were also able to see and learn able the different areas in the city.
The NBC tour was just as much fun and the tour guides were as equally entertaining. I would recommend calling NBC and making the reservations in advance in order to guarantee a spot on their tour. We made ours for 4pm and had to be their by 3:30pm to pick up our tickets. We got there around 3pm and figured we could pick up our tickets and hang around for a little bit, but we were able to see to go on the tour earlier since we already had reservations. I am not saying that will happen for everyone but it is important to be prepared if you want to get a spot on the tour. |

| My family and I enjoyed the tour. It gave us insight into places we were going past but had no idea of their significance. It was really interesting to know where shows were filmed and which ones. If you are a movie or tv watcher, this is a tour you will enjoy. Being able to actually get off the bus and take photos was nice also. Our guide was especially nice and would take photos of our entire family so no one was left out. |

| I enjoyed the NBC Tour, but thought I was going to see more. When I did the tour 15 years ago it was better. I guess because the Today is now across the street and I saw that then. Also, I thought I was going to see the museum again with the old radios, etc. and I didn't see that either. I think the tour can be improved.
The On Location Tour was great. I really enjoyed the day and Jessica was the tour guide and she did a great job. It was very informative and fun. The pizza lunch stop was unexpected and it was delicious. I would recommend this tour to anyone, especially if you are in to movies and tv. |

| I had been in NY for a week before I took the tour and I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be, but the movie locations tour made me look at NY with a different set of eyes: it made me see that it's an exciting and wonderful city, where so many things have happened and with a rich movie history. |

| My friend wanted to go on his visit to NYC. I thought that most of it was interesting. I enjoyed the bus tour more than the studio tour. I would have thought that there would be more to see in the city. The moderator was friendly. Th AC, food stop, and bathroom were nice to have. |

| I took this tour with my wife and 12 year old daughter and 14 year old son. Our guide Gary was enthusiastic and very knowledgable about the tour topic. The pace was very detailed enough but not hurried. It was nice to get off the bus a few times and see things up close (and eat some really good NYC pizza). Gary was very entertaining and the movie clips were very helpful to relate the sites we saw with the movie locations shown in the clips. Similar clips with the TV shows might also be helpful. Gary was also very willing to answer questions and encourage audience participation. Don't forget to mention the Led Zep Physical Graffiti album cover photo taken at 96/98 St. Mark's Place in future tours. |
