| It was a good tour especially meeting Vito . The cannoli was great and was given about the time we were getting hungry.
What would be nice is to have a cooler under the bus with soft drinks and water so when we get down off of the bus we have something cold to drink while we are visiting the locations.
Also, it would have been nice to see the set in Queens. |

| It was very enjoyable. Busses were on time. The only problem we found is that we put on the second of two busses with a tour guide who did not know many true facts about the area or the Sopranos. He was wrong several times and his personality did not repesent one of friendliness. We took the other bus back to the city (bus #1) and had a great time with the tour guide on that ride. |

| The tour gave a fascinating insight into the making and production of the Sopranos television series. It also gave a background on each of the main actors which I found very interesting. It was also a very interactive tour which made it quite unique. |

| For genuine Sopranos fans this was a great trip. It is good to go to the sites and, as part of the coach journey, trivia and quizzes fill the time between sites. For UK visitors tell the guide not to give away anything about series 5. The inside information was very interesting although too much on bloopers - we don't care about geographical irregularities - don't spoil the image. Big bonus was going to a recommended cast member's Italian restaurant that evening in Little Italy - excellent quality. Only disappointment was that the Bada Bing was closed on our day and we had taken a big merchandise order to bring back to friends in Scotland. I believe this was unusual and it is normally open. All in all this is a must do for true fans and is really good value for money.

| Entertaining and amusing - a fun way to spend the afternoon, especially if you are a Soprano's fan - loved the Soprano trivia and the cannoli was superb! |

| I booked this Tour mainly for my sons aged 18 and 14 as they are both big Soprano fans. However, they were very disappointed that they were not allowed in to see the Bada Bing Club for the 15 minutes we were there and this was not stated on any documentation we had read before booking. Having said that they still enjoyed the tour and found it very interesting. |

| I would readily recommend the Sopranos tour for hard-core fans as well as those individuals who are just casual viewers. The tour guide (on his second day of giving the tour without assistance) was extremely cordial and knew his material well. The number of sites viewed during the tour is significant, and the historical information (both real and "show based") provided for each site is fantastic.
I would have rated the tour excellent, had it not been for a number of logistical snafus that got our tour started late. In the future, please be sure that the bus driver knows exactly where s/he is going, since the tour is long enough without the unecessary detours.

| Everything was great, except the guy from the Sopranos - who is not a big star in the show - would not let you take pictures of him unless you bought a picture from him for like $20! What an insult! He made a huge deal of it and would not let anyone stand next to him if they did not give him money. If we pay for the tour, pictures must be included. I know he just pockets the money himself anyway. Next time, leave the fat guy off of the tour - he ruined it for everyone. Otherwise everything else was great. I highly recommend the tour - just stay away from the guy whose name I don't even remember. |
