The tour was excellent, although a lot more in depth than I'd thought it would be - I suppose I should have guessed this given its 4 hours! It covered a lot of information about how the episodes are actually made, information about the actors, and some of the locations didn't feature often in the programme. However, it was fascinating. I particularly enjoyed the cannoli and visiting the Bada Bing (for those in doubt, its not even a topless place, so not as sleazy as you might think).
Shame that the house was too far away for the tour to visit comfortably from New York, though maybe people should have been told up front.
The quiz kept things going as the tour went along.
But, thoroughly recommended.

| It was great to see the actual locations where scenes were shot. In addition, the tour guide had numerous examples of inside information on the show that were very interesting and made the entire tour even more enjoyable. |

My husband and I watch the Sopranos and always wanted to take the tour.

| The tour was terrific. Mark, our guide, was outstanding. Not only did we see locations, but really got insight into the workings and makings of a television series. The cannolis were excellent as well and a nice surprise. The little "quizes" between going to locations was a lot of fun as well. I would recommend this tour to everyone who watches the Sopranos. |

| Very good over all. The guide's insite was excellent- as an infrequent cast member, his knowledge was great.
A few more locations would have been nice (but I appreciate that many are out of the area). A taste of 'La Pizza' would have capped it off!! |

| The tour guide was enthusiastic and informative throughout and cannot be faulted in any way. We found the visit to Satrials and Bada Bing slightly disappointing in so far as the buildings were not signed up as they appear in the show and really didn't quite make the grade as a photo opportunity.The meeting with a minor star of the show in a yoghurt bar was disappointing as he appeared a bit unapproachable unless you paid $20 for his grubby merchandise.
We would have liked the opportunity to purchase genuine HBO /Sporanos merchandise on the tour bus.
Hope our comments were of interest.

| I think unless you are a Sopranos fan or have watched a significant proportion of the series the tour will be of little value. |
