| we had a great trip on the sopranos tour and would recommend it to anyone thinking of taking this trip.
very good value for money, took us outside of manhattan which was also very interesting to see somewhere more residential, so it was actually a twofold tour.
would definately recommend our trip and the guide. good fun was had by all. |

| My husband and I took this tour after watching the entire series this winter. We are both huge fans! The tour guide was really knowledgable and actually acted in a few episodes. You get to go to a lot of the sites used during taping, and you'll recognize the locations. The Jersey towns are really charming too. We would recommend this to any Sopranos fan, but leave the kids at home. This is not the A&E version. |

Excellent Tour with a great person leading it !

| The tour is a great thing to do whilst visiting New York. Myself and my partner are big fans of the Sopranos and to actually see the sights in the programme in real life is fantastic ! I would suggest this tour to anyone who is a fan ! The tour guide was brilliant and was full of knowledge, and a nice person. The information given about the sights and the programme was so interesting.... Well worth the money !! |

| My older son is a huge Sopranos fan and so this tour was primarily for him. He enjoyed it very much and would recommend it to other fans. |

| We had such an awesome experience on this tour. Our tour guide was awesome and very knowledgeable about the Sopranos. Why wouldn't he be? He has been in several of the Sopranos episodes. We got to meet Vito which was very cool. I highly recommend this tour and someday I plan on going on it again. |

In a word - Awesome!

| Very professionally run, slick, educational, fascinating and spine-tingling at times. It literally brought the show to life especially in meeting some of the cast |

Awesome!

| The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about all the locations and scenes they came out of. Great guy, very funny too. The tour is four hours (kind of long), but they pack in tons of locations from the show. Study up for the trivia game you play on the bus, some swearing (since many of the quotes on the show had swearing) and you go into the Bada Bing, so not really appropriate for kids. Had a great time, very happy we did it. Vito showed up and took pictures with us as well; great guy. :) |

Not as good as the web site promised

| Too much on the web site is not available on the tour, e.g.
The pork shop - no mention it has been pulled down
Bus did not stop at some of the sites pictured on the web
Photos on the web show Satin Dolls marked as Bada Bing - not anymore! |

a must for all Soprano fans

| Never having done this type of tour before, I joined without any knowledge of what to expect. Our guide, Gary, was friendly and welcoming. Vito turned up at the beginning and posed for photos and sold merchandise from his car. Before long we were on the coach heading towards that famous N.J. Turnpike sign we all know and love. Each site was special in itself and no doubt all held a secret interest to everybody individually. The sites both surprised and disappointed me as they were not as I had imagined, as is often the case. In the show everything seems to look much bigger. However, it was great to see them.
The finale was the best...........the Bada Bing........... and we were lucky enough to get inside, sit on T's chair, and take photos.
Throughout the tour Gary was most entertaining with his en route quiz - complete with appropriate prizes for first correct answers. This was both amusing and passed some time. We had an expert on our tour. I am sure this guy had seen the show at least 10 times judging by his knowledge. It all added to the enjoyment of the day.
Any self-respecting Sopranos fan must do this tour if possible.
It would have been better if we could have spent a bit more time with the cast member to ask a few questions and break the ice. This was not to be as he did not join the tour again. ............just when we thought we were in................
All in all I would thoroughly recommend this afternoon out to anyone who was hooked on this great show. |
