| This tour is a blast for any Sex and the City fan. Make sure to go with a friend who loves the show as much as you do! The tour guide made the three hour trip around NYC very entertaining and delightful! |

| It was not only exciting because one gets to see the original locations. It was also moving to watch the respective scenes on a small sceen right after or before passing the site.Lots of the emotional highlights could thus be recalled .
Key scenes could be re-enjoyed, and as an extra gift for me as a German viewer, they were in the Original version, and commented by a real SATC lover and connaisseur, Guide Lisa, who made us all feel like at a class reunion, browsing with us through a tree-dimensional photoalbum, laughing, crying, and also noticing, oh, I must have missed this episode, how could that happen. Wonderful child stuff to sit on Carrie's stoop where she had and had not all her goodnight kisses and have Liza make a photo so that we can take this home, what a delight to me and most of the other females who took this chance.
A Lot of interesting background information about the shooting and all the main actors were given in between and added to this wonderful three and a half hours.Except from climbing up Empire State Building and walking over Brooklyn Bridge , this was my personal highlight of my NY visit, a wonderful way to be introduced to Manhattan. |

| The tour was exactly what I expected. The tour guide was very enthusiastic and full of information about the show and about New York city. A couple of recommendations: Have the tour meet where the bus was. We had to walk from the meeting point to the bus and it would of just as been easy to meet at the bus stop. The whole sneeking up to "Carrie's" front porch seemed a little too weird along with eating a cup cake from not the exact bakery in a park in the freezing cold. The strong recommendation for tips from ONeils and from the host seemed a little over the top. I would recommend this tour to most people but not to everyone |

| enjoyed everything about tour, right down to the cupcake. It was everything i hoped it would be. The price of tour was reasonable. The tour guide was great, Lisa. I would have like to get off the bus at more of the sites, like the chruch, etc.. I would recommend it to people . |

| Overall this tour was a nice way to see the city without climbing on a tacky double-decker bus, although it truly is for die-hard SATC fans - Which I am! However, there's nothing tackier than being greeted at 11 a.m. on 5th Avenue by some woman (not our tour guide, but rather a coordinator of some sort) screaming "Are you ready to get f**king drunk? I need a fu**ing drink!" It was so not SATC!
The stop at the porn shop was ridiculous -- a sliver of a building where you stand in line to get a peek at lame garbage you could buy at any Spencer gifts in any suburban mall.
Nonetheless, the rest of the tour was very informative and the stops for a cupcake and cosmo are nice - although they lie about where the cupcakes were purchased - it's not where the bus stops as you are led to believe. By the third hour we were ready to get off the bus. |

| I was so pleased with how this tour was that I wish it had been longer. Our tour guide was awesome (you ROCK Lisa!!). She was the perfect fit for our tour. The places we went and saw were very interesting. I saw more of the city in that 3 hours than I was able to the whole week I was in New York. I loved the tour! It was so much fun! I highly recommend it to any and every Sex and the City fan. |

| I went with my mum who is an avid fan of this programme and watched it religiously, i myself saw 1 episode and didnt really get hooked.
As we went round the guide was very knowledgable of the City as well as the show, She really did her job well and kept us all entertained with her juicy bits of gossip. I wasnt too interested in watching the clips and preferred to admire the views but with this tour you get to see a lot more of the city than you would do by foot, we got to see the neighbourhood sjp lives in and even sit on the steps used in the show as her apartment. I found out where all the best shops are which i wouldnt of done otherwise and since i came back ive actualy borrowed a few of the dvd's so i can spot where ive visited! My mum absoloutely loved the fact that she wasnt alone in her addiction to the show! I dont think she blinked once in case she missed anything.
I would say though its at the side of the hotel not the back as the directions stated, we nearly missed the bus as we had trouble finding it, and also get there early so you get good seats, as we were lost we ended up sitting apart for the first half of the trip.
Well worth the money though, you get a tour of the city, a cosmo, a free cup cake and a guide who knows everything there is too know about the city and the sex in it! |

| As a faithful Carrie and Company watcher, this was a fabulous way to spend the afternoon. I loved watching the film clips on the bus and then seeing the actual locations. There was lots of "insider info" such as the episode when Sarah had just found she was pregnant and why Charlotte really quit the art gallery scene after the first couple of years. My only suggestion is that the film clips be shown immediately before the actual location. Sometimes we didn't see the clip until 15 minutes after we passed a location. |

| My husband and I had just finished watching the entire DVD set of the series when we visited NYC and took the tour so everything was very fresh in our minds. Stacey, our guide, was very knowledgeable about NYC, the locations, and of course, the show. We had a lot of fun and it was a great way to see a lot of the city for first time visitors. We highly recommend it, especially if you do it as a couple and are big fans of the show! Keep up the good work. |
