| As a huge Sopranos fan, I was so excited to finally take this tour! I live in DC and have been planning on making a quick trip to NY to take the tour for a while and am glad I finally got the chance to! Not only was the tour exciting for true Sopranos fans because a lot of key locales were visited (Bada Bing, the diner where the last scene was shot, the lot where Satriales used to be, etc.) but it was also awesome to see North Jersey cities like Jersey City, Hoboken, Newark, and Harrison.
The trivia games were fun (I won a CD!) and our tour guide, Marc Baron, was excellent! Very friendly and full of fun facts. I would say the highlights were definitely the diner and Bada Bing. Everything looks exactly as you would picture it which is awesome because usually when you visit TV/movie locations, they look nothing like you would picture.
Oh yeah, an added bonus was meeting Joe Gannascoli (the actor who played Vito Spatafore)! Hopefully next time I can meet James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano) or Tony Sirico (Paulie Walnuts). I would definitely take the tour again. My brother was envious that I went without him so I most likely will be taking the tour again soon! |

| I flew all the way across the country for this tour, and am so glad I made the trip. The tour guide, Marc Baron is truly outstanding and made the experience top notch. I'm a die hard Sopranos fan, and I feel like now I can watch all the episodes again and again with a new experience after having seen and heard so much about the Sopranos that I never knew. The tour guide is very open about answering questions anyone had, keeping the full four hours interesting with trivia and his personal insight from the show, and has a great set of clips to complement each stop/landmark that you get to see on the tour. I would love to go back and do it again some day. You won't be disappointed. |

| I'd like to start by saying that you don't need to be a huge Sopranos enthusiast in order to enjoy yourself! I have only made it through the first three seasons, and I was able to enjoy all that this tour has to offer (though I suggest watching the last episode so that you're up on some of the locations). The locations are very well thought out, and presented in a way that allows you to see the location before going to it. Our tour guide was very knowlegable (perhaps because he was part of the show?!) and he kept the group entertained with interesting facts about the show that you wouldn't know unless you took the tour. La piece de reistance was going to the restaurant where the last episode is flimed, and sitting in Tony's booth. I also enjoyed the visit to the Bada Bing (known to the locals at Satin Dolls!) where we were able to enjoy a drink where Tony spends all his time.
I would recommend this tour to anyone that wants to see New Jersey, has an interest in the Sopranos, and wants to learn a little (or a lot) more about the show! My boyfriend and I had a great time, and had some great experiences as well. |

| I think that the overall experience was good, but the tour could have been 3 hours or less instead of 4. I was bummed that we didn't know ahead of time that the Pork Store is gone, that's a main attraction for the tour. It was really neat to go into Holstens and sit down and hang out in there for a minute.
A lot of places on the tour are not recognizable...they are from one clip or one scene where someone gets dug up, or shot, or beat to death...so its kind of neat, but in reality I wouldn't even know or remember if that was true or not.
The tour guide is funny and entertaining, he makes the tour interesting and tells a lot of great facts about the show and their characters! |
