| I would recommend this to serious fans of the show only, if you are only a casual fan, you may not have a good time on this. |

| I can not believe we just passed by Pizza land without even trying it. Thats like dangling candy in front of a kid. What a let down. It just didnt capture my imagination enough. Ok, so thats the bldg where they shot this scene, yaaawn. Def. needs more work. Try to hire an actor that we recognize from the show or a real wise guy with personal stories. Anything, something!! |

Excellent

| As a huge sopranos fan I enjoyed this tour very much, it is a must for any fan visiting NYC, from standing outside the porkstore to sitting having a drink in the Bada Bing (I could not actually believe I was there). The guide Marc Baron was fantastic throughout and new everything about the show and all also a lot about what went on on behind the scenes during the filming of sopranos. An apsalute must. |

| I would recommend this tour to everyone who is a fan of the show. The guide was extremely knowledgable and was actually on the show a couple of times! It was a blast and I would actually like to go again the next time that I'm in the BIg Apple. |

| My husband and I had alot of fun! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone that is a Sopranos fan. In addition to going to many of the locations where the show filmed, our tour guide was very informational in hidden secrets about the show, history, biographical knowledge, etc that also made the tour enjoyable. Hats off to Mark our guide for also making the trip fun. Thanks again! |

So much information and amazing sights! Perfect!

| Spoilers ahead, please be advised!
From the time I got there and found out that Joe Gannascoli (played Vito) would be there taking pictures and autographs, I was thrilled. Got myself some memorabilia signed and all. Truly priceless!
The host was an actor on the show who was truly an expert on the show, he was telling us all about the backstory for how the opening sequence was filmed out of order and where they were shot (which you actually get to visit!).
You see the locations from key scenes in the series i.e. where Christopher gets shot, prisons, bridges where Tony and A.J. stopped one time, the "pizzaland" parlor shown in the opening sequence of the show....tons more stuff. It brings quite a fresh light and even authenticity to when watching the show.
Last but not least, you see the Bada Bing! The same back alley where Tracee (the dancer with a heart of gold who made some bad choices) gets killed by Ralphie. - Rough stuff.
But amazing nonetheless. Excellent tour, I am glad I went!
Do not speak of the final episode until it has been established on the bus (tour) that everyone has in fact seen it!
Enjoy the Sopranos tour, I did! |

| I loved the tour it was amazing from start to finish, the perfect amount of Sopranoness for beginners to expert show watchers. The tour guide was awesome and really knew his stuff. The sites were terrific and I just loved it! |

| the tour was highly informative,with excellant location visits,enhanced by the tour guide marc baron.we found him highly informed,funny,and with the knack of making
everyone of us comfortable and valued.for us as a couple the highlight probably
occurred before the tour started when we met the actor who played vito,whose name escapes me at the moment.another good point we felt was the lack of hard sell with
regards to merchandising sales.we were slightly apprehensive about what extras
we would be expected to pay,but at the end of the tour we felt compelled to tip the guide and driver for making the tour a day we will never forget.i cannot wait to watch
every episode again armed as we are with all this extra knowledge.thanks once
again. |
