Looking for a great time spent with other Soprano fans from around the world, listening to behind-the-scenes stories of your favorite show while eating cannoli and enjoying the comforts of an air-conditioned motor coach? THen look no further, you must take this tour!! My boyfriend and I couldn't wait to take it and we were NOT disappointed. The tour guide was great, the bus was uber-comfortable, and we got to see a plethora of shooting locations. We enjoyed the trivia, the insider's behind-the-scene stories, and, of course, the cannoli. Working for a newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland, I come in contact with dozens of people a day and I can't tell you the number of people I have recommended the tour to in just the week since we experienced it. Thank you, Zerve, for giving us an awesome experience.

My husband and I are avid Soprano's fans from Boston and enjoyed the tour. The guide, also an actor, was especially enjoyable with his trivia, knowledge and personality. The only thing I would of changed on the tour was the mixing of the locations with the video tape that was shown on the ride back. I think that would of made a difference at seeing, say, the diner and parking lot where Christopher was shot and seeing the video after and trying to remember the location. Mixing them together would of brought it together a little bit more. We both thought ending at the Bada Bing - Satin Dolls was the way to go!! |

The trivia and insider tips were very entertaining and informative. My family and I enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to other "Sopranos" fans. |

Really good time even if you aren't a big fan! |

I love New York City and my husband had previously refused to ever visit until I put together a plan for a quick visit that would include this tour and told him if he hated the city, he'd never have to come back. This tour was the selling point, AND he loved NYC and will be back! Anyway, the tour was a blast! My husband loves the show, but I don't watch it (a little too violent for me), but there was so many details and interesting things in the tour that I was able to have a lot of fun without even being a fan! Mark was our guide and he was great and I liked how he was able to relate personal experiences and things about the industry. I've worked at Disney for 15 years in entertainment, and the "show" on this tour is really good!
Thanks! |

As fans of the Sopranos for over 5 years we had a great time on the tour, thaugh not such inthusiastic fans might find it a slightly too commercial. You might wanna add inside tour in some of the places except the "Bada Bing" and not just seeing them from the outside. The explenetion about the openning theme song was very interresting.

The gentlemen who gave the tour was very much a pro when it comes to Sopranos. After I watched a couple of episodes after the tour, I picked up on more inside stuff and enjoyed seeing the places that we saw on the tour, in the episodes. My father was more than likely the only person on the bus who had not seen the Sopranos before(He does not have HBO). After the tour, he knew about as much knowledge, about the Sopranos, as any long time viewer. This showed me that the tour and the guide did a great job, and that the tour is very entertaining.
thanks. |

Overall, I enjoyed the Sopranos tour quite a bit. We happened to take the tour on a day in which one of the company's buses had an accident and we left over a half an hour later than expected, but our tour guide was able to salvage the waiting period by keeping us informed about the show and entertained. Because a new bus was provided at the last minute, our tour missed out on some of the audio-visual components of the tour, but, again, our tour guide made all the difference and kept things rolling. Seeing the different sites around New Jersey was thoroughly enjoyable; though we have lived in New Jersey for about a year, the wealth of information offered about the state and area in general was a plus. The inside information about the show and about the innerworkings of the NY/NJ acting community was also a fascinating element of the presentation. In the end, because of the unforseen difficulties, the tour company made things right by providing a complimentary tour for each customer, so I felt as though the company addressed the situation well. All in all, this was a good experience. |

I took my boyfriend on this tour for his 50th birthday because he likes the Sopranos. We enjoyed the trip and everything went smoothly after a second bus was sent to replace the first which was in an accident. Noone was hurt. Our guide was very well informed and has actually been in a few of the episodes. This is a fun and interesting tour especially if you're a fan. |

I was undr the impression that we would meet with an actor from the show. We did not, but the tour was still fun and informative. I recommend going while the show is being filmed, you can see the signs and some of the props used. |
