| The bus was far too big for the saturday traffic. Driver was pregnant and overworked not having time for lunch all day.
We couldn't get around corners because cars were parked on them inspite of the driver being amazing at her job. Tour guide good but nobody was impressed when she said tips would be appreciated at the end. Content of the tour was good though and in the end interesting -would have been so much better in a minibus! |

| I really like the tour since it provided the opportunity to visit places where the series takes place. Tour-guide provided a lot of funny details about the series, the cast and Manhattan. I recommend the tour to my friends.
The only thing that I would change is to stop at more locations. |

| I enjoyed the information. However the tour guid pointed out the sites after we had past them, which annoyed other travellers i spoke to on the tour. The stop overs were fantastic. |

| We all felt that the time of day was not smart to have a tour. We went on a Friday at 3:00. We spent at least an hour in traffic. We were unable to see everything because of traffic. Also our tour guide wasn't paying attention and we would pass for example the Jimmy Choo store and she would say "Oh, we just passed it, but there was the Jimmy Choo store". She also played the video clips and didn't explain them or tell us when we would see the spots. Also, I think the tour would be better if it was in a smaller group. I'm not sure how many people were in our group, but I would say over 50 people. We recommend the tour to go on in the morning or during lunch so that you don't have to waste your time in Friday night traffic. We were dissappointed and would not recommend this tour. |

| I have been on bus tours, and enjoyed them very much, but this was not the best tour. Friday afternoon, Halloween night, and heading downtown do not make for a good combination. Traffic was unbelievable. It was so bad that they cut out a few stops because we ran out of time. While perhaps outside of the control of the tour operators, they should know the traffic patterns of NYC and would know to avoid certain streets to avoid such problems. Another side effect of the traffic was that our tour guide ran out of things to say. It seemed like she was new, and didn't really know how to keep the tour lively. She was nice enough, but a more outgoing personality would have helped the tour immensely. She also missed some spots and would say "Oh back there was Jimmy Choo's." Granted it is a tiny store, but if it's on the tour... Overall, if you are a fan of the show, it has the potential to be a fun tour, but we definitely didn't go on a good day - both in terms of traffic and tour guide. |

| We liked everything, but we'd probably take the tour earlier in the day. |

| I thought the SATC tour was excellent - apart from the bad weather!! I really enjoyed it as I am a huge fan of the series!! Now I know all the hip bars and restaurants where Carrie and the gang hang out!! The guide was really good and had a great sense of humour!! I will definately do the tour again on my next visit to New York - Thanks!! |

| I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who has ever seen the show and enjoyed it. The tour guide was excellent. While been driven from place to place you get to watch the show. There are lots of stops to places featured in the programme. Great value for money. The only negative thing I could say was that it rained really bad that day so getting out of the coach wasn't so much fun. |

| It was quite good fun, a pity it was pouring rain on the day, it kinda ruined it. Maybe an actual on-set (i.e. where they are filming) visit might be a good idea for future tours? |
