| 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). |

| We took the April 28 tour with Marc Baron.
Firstly, coming from UK, although we really love watching The Sopranos, never having missed an episode right from the pilot, did we really want to spend four hours of our valuable time in NYC on a tour bus looking around industrial New Jersey ?
We knew this would take up our whole Saturday afternoon, and the evening was booked up to see The Killers at Madison Square Garden. Whilst waiting to be picked up I wondered if my wife would want to shoot me afterwards !
The tour began with Marc filling in some background of the show, and checking in other folks as they arrived, immediately he had us hooked.
For the whole duration of the tour which really flew through the four hours, Marc was really a superb host, being amusing, witty, AND above all - interesting.
Whilst travelling around couldn't help noticing some of the locals were somewhat entertained by a coach full of tourists disembarking to flash their cameras at Satriales Pork and other stuff. One of whom shouted at me through his car window - "Yo! So yous a Sopranos fan right ? " I replied in the affirmative. " Welcome to Jersey ! " he shouted as the traffic lights changed to green.
The sortie into Bada Bing was very professionally executed ( no pun ), and was a great way to finish the locations. The whole thing was very well put together, with the snack stop, video blooper analysis, quizzes and of course, the canoli.
By the way, either they fixed the air-con or it was a different bus, but no complaints anyway.
Thanks very much to Marc, he was really, really, a goodfella.
Taking The Sopranos tour was the highlight of our trip to New York ! |

Great Tour!

| I never watched the Soprano's but my boyfriend was a fan of the show that is why we got tickets for the tour while in NY. It was a really good trip and the tour guide was very entertaining. My boyfriend took tons of pictures during the trip. I recommend this trip for anyone who is a fan of the show and even someone who hasn't seen much of the show. |

A very enjoyable afternoon.

| If you enjoy the Sop's you MUST go on this tour!!
The tour guide was very knowledgable about Sop's trivia which gave the trip an extra edge. He stated more than once, that he has had various extra parts in past episodes.
Great to see the sights, especially Satriales and The Bing.

| My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the Soprano's Tour. We are both fans of the show and it was great seeing all the locations where the show was shot. My wife and I were particularly impressed by our tour guide who was not only wery knowledgable, he was also a member of the show. I would highly recomend this tour to newcomers and fans alike. |
