| We don't know how you could improve this tour as it was conducted with great humour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions asked, usually giving more additional information, the only thing that would have made it better for us personally, would have been a slice of pizza from Pizzaland! |

| As a german fan of this series, I didn`t see all episodes, so am not with the best knowledge.
But because I once lived in Northern New Jersey, where the stories take place, I became a fan of the series and later on I liked the plot and the characters.
Therefore I was interested in this tour.
Before the tour there was photo and signature meeting with one of the actors.
The guide an actor himself, played several short mostly non-speaking parts during the series.
So he was with some inside knowledge and shared those with the tour-guests.
The tour was interesting, showed a lot of the areas and certain places, where the stories were shot.
Included were several stops and visits to important locations.
During the tour the guide told a lot of background info, about the series, the actors, the area and the technics of tv-shooting.
He mixed this with some quiz and prizes for our knowledge about the Sopranos.
Altogether I enjoyed the tour and if you are / were interested in this show, do the tour. |

| We enjoyed the tour. Saw some key locals. What was kind of irritating was occasionally when the guide would point out a location we'd be going by at a good rate of speed. Wouldn't have taken much to have the bus slow down for a few of the "drive by" locals.
Tour guide was great. John I believe his name was. Had knowledge that wasn't obviously scripted and had a great sense of humor. Would have liked to see more sites........ downtown Newark was closed for bridge work, but I know that would extend the length of the tour.
Reccomendations:
The only local we wern't going to see that was mentioned was Tony's house. Some of the fill time riding between sites would be to mention other locals that aren't on the tour and tell where they were realative to the current location.
Piers, graveyard, Livia's house, ect..... I could go on but you get the point. As you know people travel from all over the world to see this. (we came from San Francisco) and we're all Soprano's fans or we wouldn't be on the tour.
Thanks

| This was a birthday gift for my husband. He is a Sopranos fanatic and enjoyed his gift thoroughly!!! We got to see all of the secret spots where they film the show and got some really interesting inside/ behind the scenes info from our guide who has actually been in many episodes himself. We were able to take pictures everywhere, except inside the BING, of course (A note to all the ladies: the ladies' room at the BING is also the dancers' dressing room! What a surprise that was!! Consider yourselves WARNED!). My husband made a collage with all of the pictures, including the one of him and VITO and the autograph he received from VITO when we met him just as the tour was starting. I think if we had left right after that, my husband would have been satisfied with his present! :-) I am not a die hard Sopranos fan, so as we reached the 2 1/2 hour mark, I had had my fill of Sopranos trivia. My husband, on the other hand, was sucking in all of the facts and loving every minute of it! All and all we had a blast! I would definately recommend this tour to anyone who loves the Sopranos and enjoys a trip to the city. |

| The tour guide was funny, witty and fulkl of knowledge. The tour was great but a little too long. It went for 4.5 hours (due to traffic) and did not have enough Sites for that length of time. Still would reccomend this tour. Especially for big fans of the show. |

The organisers should be whacked...........

| .............only joking. The tour was well worth it and the tour guide kept us informed and entertained for the whole 4 hours of the tour. This is a must for Sopranos fans and anyone else who wants to see the underbelly of New Jersey (and anyone considering writing a history on the American diner).
