| Our experience on the Sopranos tour was fantastic. We learned so many new things about the show and cast. Fav part was sitting in the booth and eating some onion rings, as in the last scene ever. Too cool.
Will definitely be recommending this tour to anyone who is an avid fan of the show.
Tour guide was amazing. |

| The tour guide knows everything about the Sopranos. It's a long 4-hour tour, all in NJ, but if you know the Sopranos, you might win one of the many trivia prize contests. Lots of information about how the show is produced, some bloopers, the Soprano Family tree, etc. A must for Soprano fans. |

a bit disappointing

| Our guide on this tour Marc was to much into details and into himselve, this was not by far as entertaining as the Sex and the City tour with Tracey, which we did the day before. Real compliments for Tracey , she gave good and funny information. Just as you would expect on a tour like this. |

| The tour guide was awsome, acted and stood in alot of the sopranos episodes and had tons of inside info, and was really great at getting us in and out, of each location. he even through in a few bonus locations, like the home of rthe karate kid ect..lots of fun. I do wish we could have stopped pizza land, for pics and maybe so we could buy some ny pizza, but hey fogettabout it |

| First of all: You couldn't take a picture of Joe "Vito Spatafore" Gannascoli if you didn't buy anything of him. Has it become that much of a nuisance that the only way to scare people off is you charge 'em for it?
Next: If you really want to get something out of the bus ride, sit on the right front side of the bus. I didn't count, but I do believe the left/right ration was 1:8 (for every one sight on the left, there were 8 on the right side).
Third: I know the tour lasted about four and a half hour, but there was too little time at the 'bing. You'd want to sit down and enjoy a couple of beers, while enjoying the dancers and the place itself.
Last: No aircondition on the bus; although the weather wasn't as hot as it could've been, it was still too hot inside the bus. I felt like a boiled potato when we got out. |

| Really enjoyed the tour and it was great to see the sites as advertised.
But I must say the bus was hot and cramped! And this really reduced my enjoyment of the tour overall, as alot of time of time is spent on the bus. |

Second time round - just as good!

| 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. |

| The tour guide was a lot of fun and my friend and I had a wonderful time. The only thing that would have made it more enjoyable would have been a more enthusiastic group, but neither of us have any complaints and would definitely go again! |

| Evaluating the whole tour I must say it was quite interesting and much info was provided in order to satisfy everybody's curiosity, and Marc Baron was an outstanding tour guide.
The onion rings provided at Holstens were a very nice surprise, however the stop should had been longer.
The worst thing was the appearance of "Vito" before catching the bus, although no word was said, you couldn't take a picture with him unless you bought some of his stuff, completely unofficial (no HBO mechandising at all) and honestly I think 20 bucks for a signed picture is abusive, I can't figure out how much he charged for the fake Bada bing plates or his t-shirts, he seemed very greedy and not very nice, he didn't look at you until you were giving him the money. |
