| Definetly the best trip for a true soprano fan..tour guide (phil leotardo's extra) was fantastic filling in everything you really need to know about the show , meeting joe gannascoli (vito) topped it off . so if your a soprano fan or not you will be watching episode after episode after this trip, it was just flat out GREAT |

Great Tour!

| Although some of the locations were a bit insignificant in the grand scheme of things, overall the tour was great. Saw a ton of locations used in the Sopranos. Marc Baron was so knowledgeable about the show and the cast, and really kept the tour fun with trivia, games, etc. Seeing the video footage of the places we visited was great, but it would have been better to see it immediately after visiting the locations instead of waiting til the end of the tour. We were lucky enough to have Joe Gannascoli ("Vito") presenthat to sign autographs, etc. However it was a bit shady that he was basically charging $20 to sign a photocopied color photograph sold from the back of his Mercedes. Holstens and the Bada Bing were great!! A fun tour for real Sopranos enthusiasts. Warning - it will make you want to watch the whole series again! |

| My boyfriend is in love with the soprano's so i suprised him with the soprano's tour for his birthday. He absolutely loved it, thought it was great, my self on the other hand never seen an episode before didn't really care for it. But if you are a soprano's fan i would recomend this tour. |

| More than average familiar with the Sopranos - join the tour! I didn't remeber all the sites from the series, but can't wait to get back and start to watch it again from the beginning. Eating onion rings in the booth where it all ended - priceless. And I have probably visited a strip club for the first and last time in my life. But as long as it is the Bada Bing, and looks like the Bada Bing, I don't care! I will also point out that visiting New Jersey is an adventure in it self. |

| This tour brought us mostly to primarily minor and seedy North New Jersey places in "The Sopranos", so would likely only have value for the hardcore, rather than modest, Soprano's fan. That being said, I would not recommend the tour to those who only have a minor interest in "The Sopranos". Most of the tour sites could very well seem mundane and unexciting to the non-Sopranos enthusiast.
A major disappointment of the tour was that Satriale's, the building, was gone from the lot that is was supposed to be in, which was, on the tour, completely empty. Satriale's, however, was advertised by the tour as something that would be seen on it. Nonetheless, I appreciated visiting important Sopranos tour spots, namely Holsten's (site of the final Sopranos scene), the diner outside of which Chris was shot, and Bada Bing. I also enjoyed the surprise opportunity to meet Vito and found the guide himself to be knowledgeable, though did not like at all an inappropriate remark he made about Meadow being a "slut". |

| I thought it was quite a good tour. The guide was excellent and really knew his stuff, I was very impressed by his manner, enthusiasm and overall presentation. I would recommend it for sure, although I would tell anyone I was recommending that it really was detailed on the Sopranos. I did think the idea of meeting Vito was a waste of time. He appeared a long way from enthusiastic and his attire made him look like he had just gotten out of bed. I went to the car but didn't bother meeting him as it was apparent that he was only there to sell merchandise so I would have felt awkward in meeting him without buying anything. If there is going to be a star from the show I feel that is done properly, i.e. not at the back of a car with the person presented as above. However, I would like to point out that it was thoroughly enjoyable overall and I have no issues apart from the one outlined. |
