Tour guide was funny and had been an extra on the Sopranos so could give insight to how the show was filmed and what the cast and crew were like. Great value for money as well. |

This is well worth doing if you have watched every episode. I am a hardcore fan and knew all the loactions etc..The day happened to be very hot so be prepared if you go on a warm day. The air con on the bus was substandard but you get that. The guide Marc was very informative and entertaining. You do get the feeling that they are struggling to come up with things to justify the tour though. All things considered, if you are a die hard fan-you must go. Just to stand in the Badda Bing if for nuttin' else.

For a "Sopranos" fan, this is the dream ticket. The commentary was amusing and informative, the trip was conducted with maximum efficiency and the choice of sites visited was excellent-particularly the "Bada Bing".! I have just got back to London and have already recommended the tour to a taxi driver. |

Well, that was really great ! From France, and on vacation in New York, i couldn't miss this opportunity to visit Sopranos locations.
Well, i'm not disappointed. 4 hours are not too long, not too short, that's really interesting, i've learnt many things from the tour guide, who was really excellent. I also enjoyed the questions for a prize, the cannoli (which was delicious), and of course : the Bada Bing !
Well, if you live in NYC, or if you're an international tourist like me, and that you love The Sopranos, don't hesitate ! That's the tour to be done ! |

Extremely well organised tour. Very informative with an awesome guide (Marc Baron). Four hours of bliss. I bet that even non-Sopranos fans would even get hooked. The cannolis at the end were a classy touch to an already unique experience. Please continue with all the outstanding work.

Good but some disappointments

The tour is good and the tour guide very informative with fun quizzes on the way. The free canoli is lovely - best we have tasted.
The disappointments are that Satriales and Bada Bing club are not signed as such - the pork store is just like a derelict shop - no distinguishing marks and the Bada Bing club (although brilliant inside - but no photos allowed annoyingly) is called Satin Dolls and so the two main photo opportunities you go for (as pictorially advertised on the side of the tour bus and other literature) are not actually there. This may be different during filming season I guess - maybe check before booking.
We got to meet Vito off the show which was good - he will let you take a picture but you do feel obliged to buy a photo from him for $20 so take extra cash. Also merchandise available from a surly guy in the Satin Dolls club which is overpriced but ok quality.

overpricing of tshirts and caps at bada bing when

Hi
The trip to New Jersey was very comfortable until the bus was shut off while we sat waiting and the interior heated up.the driver needs to remember we are cramped into a bus with forty or so heated bodies.
I find John Gains the tour guide was the tops and very informative.I think that is what his name was not sure.
I wasn't happy that we were overcharged for hat.s and tshirts at the clubs.We are not the only ones complaining about the overcharge.
Thank you

Tour lacks the sophisticated touch, that characterizes the show. Also tour should lose some of the not so often-used locations, so that one could spend more time at the Bing, or maybe visit the Sack-residence, if it's not too far away. Also it would make more sense to let customers see satriales from the inside, or at least make sure the windows are clean, so you can get a glimpse of the interior.
It is not ok to let your customers sit in a bus, that reeks of feces for four hours. Ticket prices indicate, that you could find the space in your budget for a decent ride. |
