| Very informative. Guide knew his stuff. 4 hours was a bit too long. final stop at Badda Bing should have been proceeded with more warning as to what to expect. Assumption is that all knows what goes on at the Bing. Little trivia quizzes and prizes were nice. Just seeing that part of Joisey was interesting. The cannnolis were a nice touch. too bad we were not allowed to buy some. Told to wait on bus while guide fetched. find time to go in Badda Bing and spend a buck or 2. Not everyone has chance to go into a real Italian bakery. Of course consider size of tour. Maybe works with smaller groups. Did like itour and would recommend it. Bus picked us up on time at "Button." |

| The tour was 'good,' I am not a huge Soprano's fan. We originally wanted to take the 'Sex and the City' tour but it was sold out. The tour needs to visit more show site from later seasons. The majority of the stuff we saw was from season one. |

| We thought 4 hours may be a bit long, but it turned out to fly by. Very informative; continuous discussion, whether it was with trivia questions or interesting bios on each cast member. All in all a great time! |

| The tour was good...I wish that we could have gone to the house. Other than that I enjoyed the different places that we went to. I would only recommend this tour to die hard soprano fans because the trivia is kind of tough. Thanks |

| My Husband & I (60's) took AZ Couple (30's) on tour because they don't miss a show. We thought it was just for them but we enjoyed it too. Our tour guide made the tour what it was. Very enjoyable !!!! Would even do it again. |

| The Sopranos Tour is a must for any fan of the show. Mark, our wonderful guide, had appeared in several episodes of the show himself and kept both the info (show history, cast biographies and behind the scenes information) and jokes coming throughout the tour. We weren’t just sitting on a bus for 4 hours either – we got out and walked to several of the locations and I tasted my first Cannoli! Just remember to take plenty of film for the camera and some cash for souvenirs at Bada Bing! |

| We were thrilled to be able to relive first hand some of the memorable moments of our favorite TV series, the Sopranos. Our guide, Mark, had been in several episodes and was able to provide much humorous and knowledgeable insight to the show, its themes, actors' personalities and trivia related to it.
Our tour began in the Garment District of Manhattan, crossed the Lincoln Tunnel with A-3's show theme playing, and made a second pickup in beautiful North Joisy. We then saw many of the sites that make a visit to the Oil and Petrochemical State a memorable experience. We saw the prison where Tony B was recently released from, the diner where Christopher was shot in the 4th season, the site of several of Big Pussy's conversations with the FBI when he'd turned an informant, and of course, Kearney, home of Satriale's, the coffee shop where Tony and friends have many an espresso, and the Italian, er Irish-American club. The trip ended at one of the show's landmark sites, the Bada Bing, aka, Satin Dolls.
We strongly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys the Sopranos. We haven't enjoyed an afternoon as much as this in a long, long time. Our guide, Mark, was tremendous, and our driver negotiated the wonderful North Joisy road system with the deftness of a Paris taxi driver. Next time we're in NY, we'll do this again, with our Joisy friends, who weren't aware of the tour. In short, this is an experience not to be missed. |

| I would recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the show. I would have liked to have pictures to see of the characters as our guide spoke about them. |
