| I went on the Soprano's tour in February and it was professional, fun and interesting.
This time I took a friend for her birthday and was very disappointed and do not feel it was worth the time or money. Although told that the guide was in a car accident, the replacements were totally unprofessional. The guide bad mouthed NJ again and again and claimed he had only seen one episode of the Sopranos.
If this was a one time occurance, they would have been better off cancelling the tour rather than taking people's money and embarrassing themselves with fill-ins who really knew very little about the tour itself. |

| This was a very enjoyable tour hosted by Marc Baron who has appeared as an extra in several episodes. His knowledge and insights to the cast and all of the series and his knowledge of the technical aspects of locations and filming wasexcellent.
Prior to the tour I wondered if visiting the locations would spoil watching future episodes but having seen some since it has actually had the opposite effect.
Running clips on the bus at the end of the tour of extracts filmed at the sites visited really brought it all together very well.
I will certainly recommend the tour to friends who visit New York. |

Soprano fans must see!

| This is a must see for Sopranos fans. The tour guide was authentic and very knowledgeable about the Sopranos. The bus was clean and comfortable. It can be difficult to take pictures but that is not the tour's fault as most of the sites are off busy highways. Enjoyed it very much. |

| Very good activity. Clips of Sopranos were unexpected but extremely helpful for setting the scenes. Information about New Jersey was also unexpected, but was helpful in a lot of ways--added to the "Tour" nature of the event. |

Amazing Good Fun!

| I am an avid Sopranos enthusiast-my domestic partner is new but hooked too. We both simply loved this tour. Despite the usual NY-NJ traffic, the tour guide was so interesting, engaging, and kept up just the right pace that we did not really notice the traffic factor. Seeing all the key filming spots, learning about 'establishing shots' and walking where 'they' walked was great fun. My fave was visiting the 'Bada Bing' at the tour end and experiencing the real atmosphere of this legendary series. We even went to the HBO Store in Manhattan the next day to do more things Soprano. Money and time well worth investing. Bone up on your Sopranos trivia so you can win the on-bus raffle. I did...smile.

| What a blast! Marc the tour guide was extremely knowledgable and very entertaining. The depth of his Sopranos, New Jersey and film industry trivia was amazing.
Any Sopranos fan will not be dissapointed by this experience.
Thanks to Marc.......great job!

| This was our second Zerve tour, we did the Sex and the City tour in January, and I can't wait to go back and take the next tour. I was very impressed with Mark (our tour guide). There were two people on our tour in wheelchairs, that he went above and beyond, to make sure they got to enjoy the experience and could see and hear everything. Kenny, our bus driver, also did an excellent job. He moves that bus better than most people drive a car. (He was also our driver on our last tour). |
