| A well put together and incredibly detailed tour of familiar sights from The Sopranos
We had a great tour guide who knew so many facts and figures about the show it was amazing
A bonus of the tour is that it takes you to areas of everday parts of New Jersey so you are able to compare them with the glitz and glamour of Manhatten
Thoroughly recommended!! |

| Thought the entire program as a birthday present for my significant other exceeded all expecations - from begining to end. Marc Baron, our tour guide, was outstanding. His descriptions of locations combined with the re-enactment videos went way beyond what could normally be expected. I loved the trivia questions, prizes, and inside details of the stars. It was well worth the price of the tickets, |

| I liked the tour and the guide certainly knew what he was talking about. However, I couldn't help but compare it to the Sex and the City tour, which showed clips of the locations in the episode as we passed each location. On the Sopranos tour, it was hard to picture the locations of the scenes as they were in the episodes b/c we saw very few clips. When we did see the clips, it was not at the time or close to the time of when we passed the sight.
Stopping at the restaurant was awesome. I wish we had a few more minutes to spend there. It was interesting to go to the Bada Bing, but 30 minutes was wayyy too much time to spend there, especially with your parents, brother and sister-in-law.
Seeing the character who plays Vito before the bus left Manhattan was pretty cool. Only he was completely unfriendly and was clearly hitting people up for money. |

| As a huge Sopranos fan, I previously went on the tour by myself back in June. However, my older brother, who is also a big fan, wanted to go on the tour on our latest trip to NYC this past weekend so I didn't hesitate to go again! Mark, the tour guide, was great as always and it was nice meeting Joe Gannascoli again as well as going back to Holstens. This tour is highly recommended! |

| This was a very well organised tour and the guide being a cast member made all the difference with the insights and background to the show. Great to see the clips on the bus before and after the sites, and plenty of opportunities for photos. Probably better photos from the right hand side of the bus though. Bring cash, as some of the locations don't take cards, and you may need to buy some "promotional material" before you can have a photo with one of the cast. |

| The guide was a great guy who knew lots of trivia about the show. The bus was comfortable. We met the character 'Vito' from the show, who selled some Soprano items and autographed our pictures. The tour itself showed us lots of Soprano's sites. Inside the Badabing (Satin Dolls) was great! It's a shame Satriales is broke down. Too bad we didn't stop at Pizzaland (from the intro). But luckily we could sit in the booth of the diner from the last scene of season 6.
Overall, me and my friend had a great time on the tour, you won't regret it! |

| The guides comments were very informative and really enjoyable, however the sites visited were a little bit "light". Ie the spot where Meadow parked her car in the last episode. It seemed to be padded out a little.
Maybe our expectations were too high and it is probably difficult after the show has ended. More clips on the bus in between sights might have helped lift it. The guide was very good. |
