| Just arrived back in South Australia and have been talking to work collegues about our Sopranos Tour.
It was the highlight of our whole vacation. To meet Marc and Joseph (Vito) was excellent. We had a wonderful time checking out the sites and locations.
To participate in the quiz.......and to win a cigar was brilliant. Our visit to Satin Dolls (Bada Bing) and also Holstens was great.
Thank you for a wonderful time and hope to see you again one day.

| On Sat. 11/10/2007 @ 1:40pm We (3) arrived at the designated bus p/u in times square. Supposedly the big blue bus broke down! We waited till 2:45pm and still no bus! I have a prosthedic right leg and a 1/2 of foot on the left. Needless to say, I CANNOT STAND FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME! It also was very cold and windy with no where to hide. My 2 sons and I left after waitng for over an hour. I would like a return on my tickets ($120.00) but I'll bet we never see a dime!. |

| I would thoroughly recommend this trip not only to Sopranos officiandos, but also to any "rookies" who are relative strangers to the world of Tony and the gang. |

Thoroughly recommended for all Sopranos fans

| Having been a massive long term fan of The Sopranos, from afar in England, I just had to take this tour and thankfully it didn't disappoint.The tour was well structured with a very informative guide. It managed to cram in an awful lot of Sopranos scenery in the 4 hours and really managed to transpose the feeling of the areas that I've seen so many times on my tv set. The highlights had to be having a beer in The Bada Bang and sitting in the same booth as Tony and family do in Holstens diner where the final scene was shot. I already knew that Satriales had been knocked down, so wasn't too disappointed not to see it, also be aware that the Sopranos family home is too far away to visit. In between stops clips of the show are played on the coach's tv's with some trivia quizzes as well and it works very well. Overall this is a fantastic way to experience the sights of the show and I'll probably do it again when I go back to New York City. |

| I enjoyed it overall but the format could be better. you are taken to or past a series of locations and then eventually you are shown clips from the Sopranos which includes the location you have seen. It would be much better if this was reversed and you are shown the clips before driving past locations.
The best part was the stops at Satin Dolls and holstens.
The biggest disappointment was being shown an empty plot of land and being told "your 3 weeks too late, this is where satriales pork store was" |

| If you're lucky, you'll get guide Gary, who we also had on the OnLocation tour. He's great!
It's not everyday you get to have a drink in the Bada Bing (aka Satin Dolls), meet the owner and his adorable bling-bedecked teacup Yorkie, and get a free Bada Bing thong. Not to mention the visit to Holsten's!!
Between stops, you can watch clips from the show, and listen to the theme song (love it!). In any case, it's a cool way to visit New Jersey.
Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| The tour begins great with pictures with cast stars then is a big letdown. Too many insignificant sites on the tour. Unfortunately Satriales building has been bulldozed. Then the most important site Bada Bing doesn't have the sign that says BADA BING. And you can't even take pictures. People want to be able to take pictures and say "I was at the BADA BING." I could have just bought a bada bing t-shirt on the website and not go on a 5 hour tour. As a true Sopranos fan I was disappointed. |
