| she was very funny and made everyone feel extremely comfortable on the tour, like she was hanging with the girls type of thing....
On another note, your tour said that we would stop at Tao and we didnt, I was expecting to stop there to buy their CD... I think you should have more stops on this tour at least a couple more.

| Well I would like to comment on something...
on the tour, we are told that we are all going to get a cupcake from the famous Magnolia Bakery, you know the bakery the ladies ate a cupcake outside of...well it seems that we weren't allowed to go to the bakery bc it is "too small and crowded" hmmmm
Interestingly the cupcakes that we are given are from a complety different bakery..a bakery called the Buttercup Bake Shop
We happened to be there later that evening and I recognized the logo on the bags that the tour guide was carrying... |

| Our tour guide Lisa was like Carrie....pretty, funny and full of enthusiasm. The bus took us all over Manhattan to many of the shows "haunts". We would stop in front of the place where a scene was filmed and Lisa would play snippets from the show, so it felt like you were there during the filming. In between stops she would joke about various episodes while giving us all the show's gossip, and tell us all about the characters. We ate cupcakes in a park in the West Village where Miranda met Steve's hot girfriend, and we had Cosmos in Steve & Aidan's bar. Lisa even took us shopping at the "Pleasure Chest" to buy the "Rabbit"!
For "Sex" fans, this tour is simply a must! |

| If you're not into the show, this probably isn't the tour for you. Especially if you're a dude. But it's a pretty good date activity and you'll score big points if the girl is way into the show, which most girls appear to be. All in all, a pretty good experience and something fun to do on a weekend afternoon. Just make sure your bus' air conditioning works. :) |

| My friends and I had been looking forward to the tour for a long time. The bus we were on did not have a working dvd player so we did not see ant of the video. Although i am a huge SATC fan and was well aware of which scenes out tour guide talked about while we passed them it would have been significantly better to see the scenes. We were told someone was going to repair/or switch the bus at first but nothing was fixed and we spent the tour with out video. I will be contacting someone further as I believe all who were on that bus should get at least a half-refund. We discussed these plans with each other for months so I was very disappointed that it was not what it should have been. |

| I am a native New Yorker and decided to take the tour with nine of my girlfriends for my birthday celebration. WE HAD A GREAT TIME! Our tour guide, Amy, was Very funny and we loved learning all the "behind the scenes" facts. She was interactive with our bus and was delightfully enthusiastic at 10 a.m. Saturday morning, as were my friends and I! As a New Yorker, I was given a quick recap of certain hot spots that my friends and I will return for another fun outing, such as the west village. The cupcakes were delicious and I got an extra one for my Birthday! Overall, it was a great day spent with friends and everything Sex and the City! |

| The tour is a must for any huge fan of the show, such as myself. The very comfortable (and air conditioned, very welcome in the unbearable late August humidity in New York) bus took us all over Manhattan and the very informative, fun and friendly tour guide pointed out dozens of locations where various scenes from the show are filmed, and showed us clips on the bus's TV screen to remind us. Our first stop was a sex shop that was used to film the scenes of the characters buying the infamous Rampant Rabbit, and were given an opportunity to do the same (which our tour guide strongly recommended). Next stop was the Magnolia bakery for some incredibly delicious (and complimentary!) cupcakes, followed by a short walk to the street that was used as Carrie's street in the series. By far the highlight of the tour for me was our tour guide photographing us individually sitting on Carrie's stoop - very, very cool. After this our last stop was at the bar that was used as Steve & Aidan's bar that they open together during the series. We all were served Cosmopolitans for a mere $7 each - again, delicious! I highly recommend this tour for any fan of the show and would definitely go again, it's a lot of fun and very interesting to find out little-known facts about the behind-the-scenes happenings. |

| We had an amazing time on the Sex and the City tour. Our group of 13 girls, including my sister, the bachelorette, enjoyed a fun and relaxing tour of many locations where the episodes took place. If you are a fan of the show, I definitely recommend this. My favorite stop was going into Steve's bar for a Cosmo.
Our tour guide, Amy, was absolutely hysterical and very friendly. The bus was very clean and comfortable.
The only negative comment is that I wish they would show the entire clip of a scene instead of chopping it up. Although, I understand they have time constraints.
Overall, great tour and a great experience. Even if you are not a fan, it is a nice tour of the city!
Thank you!! |
