3 hours packed with fun and jokes by a great onboard host. Highly recommended for fans of the show. See NewYork in a different way, the Sexy way :-) Freebies and discounts thrown in too. Great stuff.

Good but slightly disappointing

The tour itself wasn't entirely as expected as you don't go to anywhere of real significance to the TV series. You do drive past alot of places however you don't actually get off the coach, coupled with the fact that you no longer go to Carrie's apartment. Another point is that, particularly in November the 3pm tour may be a little late as it was dark when visiting some of the places. I also felt that visits to the bar, Magnolia Bakery and the Pleasure Chest were just a way of shepharding customers in to spend more money, we should have been spending more time at key places. On a positive note, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and video clips appeared on screen so we could recall the part of the film/tv series that the place on the tour related to. I did enjoy the tour but do not think I would wholeheartedly recommend it to die hard Sex and the City fans Thanks

I really liked the tour! Like the brochure said though, I wish we could have taken pictures on the stoop of Carrie's building and that the drink would have come with the tour. In Boston I went on a Pub Crawl and all their drinks were included with the tour so it must be a state law or something? But it was really neat to see a lot of the sites from the movie and series!

Not only a trip for SATC fans!

This was my second time on this tour (first time about 18 months ago), although my mum and sister were on it for their first time. The tour has changed a lot since the movie has come out, with more references to the movie than the series, however it was still a great trip for SATC fans. It is also a greally good way to see different areas around NY, so I would recommend doing the tour early on in your visit to NY, as we spent some time going back to some of the areas we noticed on the trip ( particularly Bleeker in West Village for Magnolia Bakery and fantastic shops!). My only negative comment was that, on the previous tour i was on, we visited Carrie's apartment and you could have your picture taken on her steps, which was just a great experience, but this wasn't one of the locations pointed out or visited on this tour and I did miss it. Otherwise a great trip and very NY experience.

Entertaining if your a Sex and the City fan

So, I will say that the tour was "enjoyable" and I'm glad my friend and I went. Was it the best tour I've ever taken? No. Was it fun and worth the money, considering it was over 3 hours? Yes. Our tour guide, Emily, was funny and full of enthusiasm, which was terrific. Our group of folks on the bus... well, not so full of enthusiasm. I'm not sure if there was a language barrier with some folks or whether this was just kind of a dull crowd. I can imagine that with a bus full of enthusiatic Sex and the City fans, I would have "enthusiastically recommended" it, rather than just "recommended" it. Overall, good time and now is a great time to go because it certainly gets you in the mood for the Sex and the City 2 movie coming out next year!!

It was à great day. The tour guide was very funny. We got à good overview of NYC. The selection of the Hot Spots was okay.

More stops would make this great!

Overall the tour is good and great for any fan... with clips from the show on the bus to remind you exactly what you are looking at there's also a bit of context for the less obsessed. However, most of the sites are whizzed by on the bus and only outside views (i.e. see the fourth window up, third along... in there is Big's apartment). Also, I think that hitting the Pleasure Chest first up at 10am is not the best - maybe if it was at the end when everyone had chatted a bit and relaxed it might work better.
