| Tour was excellent, all sites visited were well shown and detailed. Our guide was excellent, knowledgeable and provided the group with humour throughout the trip! One on the highlights of the tour was visiting the Bada Bing! All in all a great day out with a fantastic tour guide. Would throughly recommend. |

| Definitely enjoyed my afternoon reliving scenes from the Sopranos show and exploring parts of Jersey I wouldn't have otherwise seen. Tour guide was great at giving inside information about the cast members and scene bloopers which I found the most interesting. As a cast member himself (albeit one of the lesser known ones), he provided great anecdotes that gave the tour a nice behind the scenes feel. He also kept the tour fun and interactive by throwing out trivia questions and prizes throughout the day. If you're not a big Sopranos fan it can still be a great experience as long as you've seen a few episodes of the show. If you haven't seen any episodes, don't go. Might get boring after a few hours. Highlights of the tour included stopping for some authentic Italian cannolis (mmm) and of course ended by going into the original Bada Bing dance bar (with live girls included). Overall, a fun afternoon. Some suggestions would be to be sure you eat beforehand (4 hour tour becomes hard to manage on an empty stomach) and bring a jacket (A.C. on the bus is freezing). |

| I am an avid Sopranos enthusiast-my domestic partner is new but hooked too. We both simply loved this tour. Despite the usual NY-NJ traffic, the tour guide was so interesting, engaging, and kept up just the right pace that we did not really notice the traffic factor. Seeing all the key filming spots, learning about 'establishing shots' and walking where 'they' walked was great fun. My fave was visiting the 'Bada Bing' at the tour end and experiencing the real atmosphere of this legendary series. We even went to the HBO Store in Manhattan the next day to do more things Soprano. Money and time well worth investing. Bone up on your Sopranos trivia so you can win the on-bus raffle. I did...smile.

| If anyone out there is a SOPRANO fan like me, you will love this tour. The tour guide was knowledgeable and made it exciting and fun and especially seeing and being at some of the hot spots in the show was amazing. I would definately recommend this tour. Had an awsome time. |

| This is the second time I have been on the Sopranos Tour so that in itself should tell you it is worth going on. This time I took my wife (also a Sopranos fan) on the tour.
The tour was slightly different this time round in that we visited additional sites from the final series of The Sopranos, including Holstens Diner where the final scene was shot (the onion rings were lovely)! Starting in Midtown Manhattan, the tour visited all of the main locations from the show you would expect, including the Bada Bing. The tour guide was informative, knowledgable about the show (and TV / film in general), and made the tour good fun.
It's well worth going on if you're a fan of The Sopranos. Highly recommended, and added bonus - meeting Vito Spatafore before the tour started. |

| It was great the group leader was great and very very informative - the only thing that was disappointing was visiting a site that had been pulled down. Apart from that a great tour. |

| It was truley great visiting all the various locations on the tour and then viewing them after from clips in the show... Mark the Tour guide was very informatiive and entertaining.
Vito (Joe) was there at the beginning of our tour too and was super great to meet him! He seems like a really cool guy and took the time to take pictures and chat with everyone.
I learned so much more than I thought I knew already about the show and in a fun way couldn't have asked for a better experience. A must for any Soprano's fan even though the show is over. |
