| 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.

| 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!! |

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. |

| 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. |

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.

| The tour was excellent. We enjoyed it very much. The tour guide was also quite good. The only problem we saw with the entire tour, however, was that the tour guide brought up the concept of us tipping him too many times and in ways we found inappropriate. (It is commonly known that tour guides should be tipped.) Otherwise, fantastic day well worth the money we spent. |

| I love the Sopranos and this was the icing on the cake!! The tour guide fella was excellent, the tour itself was superb as was the value for money. The content of the tour was very good, particularly the Bada Bing!!. Overall, every Sopranos fan should take this tour. I loved every bit of it and learnt a lot about the cast, sets etc and will definitly do it again when I next come to NY. Thanks!! |

| I thought it was fantastic for fans of the show- even for non-fans (like my sister)as it was a good chance to see New Jersey. I would recommend it to anyone who loves the Sopranos. The Bada Bing was great! |
