| This tour was amazing, if you are a S&C fan you will not be disappointed. You go all around NY in a very comfortable bus... Plus our tour guide Amy was just awesome. This is a great activity to discover how vibrant NY is. |

| I was fairly disappointed with this tour, as much pzazz that is offered on the Sex in the City sitcom - I was for sure this would be a blast off of tour but turned out to be a dud. Althought our tour guide was great she was the only fun thing about it. |

Fabulous day in the city...

| I have done this tour twice actually...I did it the first time about a year and a half ago for my bachelorette party and the second time with a girlfriend who was unable to go the first time around. It is a fantastic tour and managed to get the same tour guide twice (Stephanie) who was just as friendly, kind,(and very funny) the second time around. Their were some new hotspots and new locations which included the movie so even though I have already done the tour there were still new things to do and see. I have to say it never gets old for me I could do the tour every month and not get tired of it being an avid sex and the city fan! I plan on doing future tours ..such a great value for the price and it is a great afternoon to spend with friends. However, the only disappointment we had was not the actual tour...everything was great on the tour. My advice to future tour goers is be careful of the promotions that are offered. It I am sure has nothing to do with the tour but I was very disappointed none the less. There was a coupon for a free cosmo at Buddakahn which was a location from the movie..we went back after the tour and had every intention of having more than one drink and even took money out to show we were going to tip the bartenders generously. I only know what happened through my friend who told me what happened after I got back to the bar after using the rest room. I will NEVER go back there as long as I live!! It is beautiful but they are snotty, rude and were disgusted when we gave them the postcard for the drink promotion. I use to work in a restaurant..I know how it looks but when you take out a ten for two drinks (That were HORRIBLE by the way some sort of lemon pulpy drink they gave us...) and intend to have more than one drink..I don't want to be stared at, given dirty looks and have the regulars get up and say they are leaving because of US?? Really?? Two friends sit down at the end of the bar quietly talk and order a drink..apparently this is a reason to leave? It really still boggles my mind. My suggestion to on location tours is that although their company does a awesome job , that they be careful on who they assocaite with and have promotions with because it leaves a very bad taste in someones mouth especially after such a great afternoon, to have it end that way!

| The description that I read on the website was exactly how I thought it would turn out. Not only that, but since I was there I really didn't know where to go to sight see besides Times Square and what not, but with the bus tour it took us to places where'd I thought I'd never be able to see such as West Village which is such a cute place to take pictures. A very cute neighborhood. The tour was better than I thought. We went on such a beautiful day that every woman on the bus was in their girlie outfit so it was interesting to see everyone's cute outfits. |

| The tour is Ok, but the speaker talk too fast, and one recommendation i add to the tour is, that would be multi-language.
Best Regards.

| I am from South Africa. I saw the tour on the E true Hollywood story of the show about a year ago. Being the fan that I am of the show I knew when I got to NY that I had to do it. I landed up doing the tour on my own without any friends because none of them are as mad about the show as I am. I thought it would be lonely and awkward on my own but it turned out to be great. My tour guide was warm, welcoming and friendly. I quickly met other girls in my age group and made new friends on the bus. I was highly impressed with this tour. It was a fun and creative way to see the city for the first time as opposed to the same old boaring sightseeing bus. It was also a surreal experience to see and stand in the exact same spots where they filmed some of my favourite scenes. It helped me contexualise and bring the city, known as the 5th character, alive in my mind for me. The tour guide was highly knowledgeable about the the show and the city. She was genuine and I would never had known that she had been doing it for about four years if I hadnt aksed her. She was lively and enthusiastic which makes a difference. I highly recommend this tour which is very reasonably priced for any fan of the show or anyone who wants to see NY from a different angle. The combination of sightseeing from the bus, watching clips from the show itself and getting off the bus to walk aroud for a bit, eat cupcakes and drink cosmos was a brilliant way to experience the city. |
