| First of all, Lisa, the tour guide, was great! She is lively, friendly, instantly likable and provided me with a lot of extra fun besides seeing the SATC sites.
The sites were great to see although the glimpse was sometimes too short. But I got the accompanying booklet with lots of addresses and used my map during the bus ride to keep important sites in mind as I went back later to examine the area by myself. So the tour gives you a great (head) start to get back yourself!
Thanks for the cupcake from Magnolia bakery!
I ran recommend the tour without a doubt! I hope you can put in more from the movie later on and I will sure get back on the tour next time I am visiting! |

| very well set-up, running smoothly, joined by many people , the downside of that is that you feel like you are in mass tourism, also because there were two buses full, following the same route, therefore you meet the other group at every stop. but the enthusiasm of the guide who truly loved Sex and the City was great and really made it a great afternoon, relaxed and informative. furthermore i liked the fragments of the show that were played in the bus. it was like watching a documentary about Sex and the City, meanwhile being illustrated with New York itself, as New York is the fifth main charachter of the show - in my opinion. |

| While I tried to get some friends to do this tour with me, I ended up doing it by myself. I will definitely recommend this tour and other tours by this company to anyone who asks me about visiting NYC. Unfortunately I only had one day in the city so your tour was fantastic as it showed me much more than I was able to see by myself and on-foot. My one suggestion is, other than the brochure, to give some sort of script with the exact names and addresses of places pointed out on the tour. I kept a notebook but I know I missed some details.
Thanks it was fantastic!!! |

| The day I went it was extremely hot and there was a parade that shut down half the city, yet the tour was still amazing. Despite the heat and the chaos, the tour was a success. My favorite part were the cosmos at the bar. Great afternoon with girlfriends! |

Would do it again and again!

| Most of the locations that were pointed out were on the left side of the bus and I was sitting on the right side, so I missed some sites. I wish we could have had more time at each location, I felt a little rushed when we got off the bus. Other than that, the tour was great- well worth the $40. |

| We all had a pretty good time. The tour guide was great, but not as accomodating as she could have been. Two members of my group could not sit with us on the bus and the tour guide suggested that we all move to another bus in order to sit all together instead of politely asking two individuals to please switch seats. We weren't able to switch seats after the first location stop, either, because she said it helps with the head count if everyone kept the same seats. I'm sure she would've been notified if someone was missing from the bus. I think that she should've told the people that when they enter the bus to file in all the way to the back first or start from the front of the bus and move back so that there would be no gaps in the seating and everyone could sit with their group.
The tv show clips were a great addition to the tour so that we could see the live locations in each scene, but the clips should've been shown before the real life location. Most of them were shown after and it was hard to remember them when we saw the location 5 to 10 minutes prior.
The bar that we visited had a terrible bathroom. They charged us $9 each for a Cosmopolitan and one of the toilets couldn't even flush and there was water all over the floor. We all wanted to look nice, since it was a Sex and the City Tour, and we had to worry if our clothes were going to get dirty from the bathroom floor.
The tour guide passed out to everyone a Sex and the City Tour book, but there wasn't enough. A couple of members in my group did not receive one.
The tour guide had some great jokes and a lot of information. She was friendly and well organized. Overall, not that bad of a tour. |

| For $40 I was very satsified with my Sex and the Ctiy tour. You are on a coach bus for most of the time but there are some spots where you get out of the bus to shop, eat, and take pictures. On the bus you basically see restaurants and other hotspots where the show was filmed. The tour guide provides you with a lot of known and unknown information about the show and the actors. You get to shop for 15 mins at the sex shop where the girls buy the rabbit vibrator. You get to walk by Carrie's stoop and around the surrounding area. You have around 25 minutes to shop in the nearby stores. Then everyone gets a free cupcake to eat. You also stop at a bar where they filmed Steve's bar "Scout". You get to relax and get discounted cosmopolitans. If you are a big Sex and the City fan you will really enjoy this, espically if you live in or near Manhattan. Now you can go and eat at the restaurants featured on the show. |
