| This tour was the icing on the cannoli of our total New York experience! We were lucky to meet with Joe Gannascoli who was a charming man and this just added further excitement to our Sopranos tour.
The guide was informative and enthusiastic and taking part in the Sopranos quiz was a great addition to the tour.
Our only disappointment was that we were unable to visit the coffee shop where the last scene of the final series was filmed ( I think this was because it was Easter Sunday and it was closed). However, the compensation was that we were able to take photographs in the Satin Dolls club because they were closed too.
Great experience and I'd do it all again on my next visit to new york city. |

| I thoroughly enjoyed the tour as did my 16 year old son (and he has only watched the Sopranos a handful of times). I especially enjoyed meeting "Vito"! That really made the tour more "personal" and impressive. My son and I both enjoyed the trivia and the silly prizes. We also enjoyed seeing all the sights I see all the time on the show. The only two downsides to the tour were the traffic jam we got in and the RAIN!! Arghhhh!!!! Of course you had no control over that! :-) I'd really like to come back and do it again in better weather. Some other things I'd love to see: Tony's house! :-) I especially enjoyed my drink in the "Bing"! Every time I see the Bing on the show now, I scream, "I WAS IN THERE SITTING AT THE BAR!!!" haha
Thanks very much!!! I hope you continue to offer the tour.
Sincerely,
Sue Walker-Thornton

| I really enjoyed this tour. It was fun, informative and definatly essential if you are a Sopranos fan. You will not regret taking this tour. The tour guide was fun and very knowledgable about the program, its stars and the locations.
Not only is a great way to see the locations used in Sopranos (the Bada Bing is awesome), but it is a great way to see the sights and sounds of NJ, which for me being an international tourist was amazing.
Again - highly recommended and something that everyone should do, you will remember this trip for a long while. Just check out other peoples comments if you do not believe me. |

| Shorter than expected. Great locations. Knowledgable guide. Advice: split up the clips and show them as the tour visits the actual sites. Thanks for the surprise Canoli! |

| We found the tour to be extremely informative tour, with a nice balance of fact and humour. The tour guide was fantastic, the whole tour was run very well. We would definately recommend OnLocation Tours. When I next visit New York I will be doing another one of their tours. |

| Easy departure and arrival location - left on time and a little late on the return due to traffic.
Commentator was terrific and made the whole experience very enjoyable. He knew his stuff and his "insider" acting experience helped immensely. He made the 4 hour journey go by very quickly - he was informative - entertaining - and was well balanced between talking and being quiet.
My only negative comment is that the transportation left a lot to be desired - the A/C was useless and the general repair was sub-standard.
Two words of advice for those on the tour:
(a) Bring refreshments/water since there is no stop until almost hour three where you can get anything.
(b) Ba-da-Bing is a "Gentlemen's Club" so you will see some activities that make some feel uncomfortable. In particular, if you are having a drink at the bar - be prepared for the girls to tell you they are still working and be prepared to give them a "tip" for them to move on.
Overall though - a great day out and well presented by the commentator.
Thanks
