| To begin with, Kimberly, our tour guide was great. She was enthusiastic, well-informed and kept the group moving along. Before you go, it is essential that you have seen the following movies: Spiderman, I am Legend, and Enchanted. Many of the spots of interest were tied to these films. Having seen none of them, the tour was not as good as it could have been. Overall, it's a great way to spend an afternoon. Our tour was at 11:00 and we did stop at a pizzeria along the way to eat on the run. |

| When I booked the tour I was informed that we would see certain sites, however, we only saw one of the sites that was mentioned. I did not pay the amount of money to listen to the tour guide's career in acting and the stars that she meet and how she felt about them. Nor did I want to hear her opinion about residents in certain areas she took us too. To me that is very unprofessional. I would never recommend her as a tour guide but would give your company another chance. |

| 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. |

It was one of the best experiences in the city!

| We absolutely loved this tour and every other tourist that we ran into we recommended it to them. The tour guide was funny and upbeat; we loved him. In addition to the sites the tour took you through Tribeca, China Town, Soho as well as others parts so you get a feel for different areas of the City. Since the City is so big I probably wouldn't have found all of that on my own. They stop the bus at some stops and allow for pictures. During the ride they had the movie clips that incorporated each sites passed as well as theme songs playing. The atmosphere was really exciting. Overall I would describe the experience being was awesome. I came out with some great pictures and learned some interesting facts. All my friends are jealous of my picture of the "Friends" apartment building. |

| One of the highlights of our trip. Our guide Gary was wonderful, full of personality and information. The tour is great as it goes all over the city and you get to see parts you may not see on your own. We would definitely recommend this to anyone! |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| Our tour guide Gary Mahmoud was terrific: he knows an amazing amount of interesting trivia, and he spewed it all out rapid fire with perfect timing and a sense of humor. It would be terrible with a bad tour guide, so I can only reccommend the tour if Gary is your guide.
Bring your lunch if you need to eat during the tour. Cookies were distributed, but there is no lunch stop and there really isnt time to pick anything up en route. |
