| I would recommend this tour to everyone who is a fan of the show. The guide was extremely knowledgable and was actually on the show a couple of times! It was a blast and I would actually like to go again the next time that I'm in the BIg Apple. |

| Our experience with the Sopranos Tour was overall a great experience. We enjoyed learning the many in-depth details that our tour guide provided us, and appreciated that the bus stopped or even let us out for photo opportunities. A great way to improve the tour would be to add additional food related stops - the cannoli's were great, but stops at Vesuvio's and Pizzaland would have been outstanding too. The only downfall we found was that the conclusion of the tour was a 20-minute stop inside the Bada Bing. I'm not sure if we really needed 20-minutes there, especially on Christmas Eve! |

| This tour includes almost all the sites in the opening credits, plus Satriale's, Bada Bing, and many more. The general insight provided by the tour group leader was good. Many of the guests were "super" fans and knew all the trivia questions, even those that are really tough. All this being said, I suspect the tour would be fairly boring to a non-fan. If you love the show, you'll enjoy the tour. |

| The trip was well organised from beginning to end and we found the guide to be enthusiastic and full of information related to the Sopranos tour. He even did little quizzes and competitions on the bus as we were travelling from location to location.
Unfortunately we went on Easter Sunday which meant that some venues on the tour were not open, which was disappointing. I would rather have known this and been required by the website to book on a different day, nevertheless it was worth the money I paid.
We were able to see areas outside NYC which made our trip even more interesting and the bus service was clean and comfortable. I think the tour would be especially suited to 'die hard' fans because the level of knowledge that the tour guide had was extremely detailed - not just about the cast and storylines but also the technicalities with filming. |

| The tour guide I had (Steve(?) Mammoud I think...) was quite good at keeping the tour interesting, he has a lot of information on each of the stops and runs through an informative and at times humorous routine of trivia about the show and New Jersey while in between locations.
Too bad most of the locations were from small unmemorable scenes of the show. At least they remind you of those short scenes by playing it on the bus.
The big stops were ok though. I was expecting the management at the Satin Dolls to pressure us to spend some money, but that didn't happen, which was a nice surprise. The girls were nice too. Satriales was torn down so it was a big disappointment.
So to sum it up, good tour guide, poor locations. Go if you have the time, but don't make special arrangements. |

| To have Marc Baron as a Guide was awesome. He knows so much about the Sopranos that he could provide us with so much Information.
Thank u so much |
