Myself, a Sopranos fan from Sweden

I'd really like to recommend this tour and you don't have to be a huge Sopranos fan to enjoy it. The tour guide was alot of fun listening to and the whole tour felt very authentic (as authentic as the tv-series). It's not a tourist trap and it didn't exploit "Sopranos" which I really thought was nice. Visiting the areas surrounding Newark was very interesting as well since it wouldn't be the no 1 place to visit if your a tourist. It was worth every penny. /Simon from Sweden

Getaway weekend for my wife and myself

Our guide, Mark, was a lot of fun. I got the impression he truly enjoyed giving the tour. We met and left on time and exactly as planned. It was a real surprise to us when Mark informed us that we were stopping to have a meet and greet with Joe (Vito), please buy something from him so he cheers up a bit (just kidding, Joe). Lastly, the stop at "the Bing" was a blast and I didn't really expect that we would actually get to go in. The sight of my wife in a strip club was worth the price of the tickets alone. Nice job guys. Let me tell you, it took some stugots to convince my wife it was all just "part of the local scenery".

The tour director, Mark was really good. His inside knowledge of how the Sopranos was filmed made the tour very interesting. The information booklet was also good. When you were done with the tour you had a better appreciation of the difficulties encountered in shooting on location, and how that affected what you actually see on TV. I would highly recommend it to any fan of the Sopranos and to anyone who wants to get an appreciation for "on location" filiming.

THE TOUR GUIDE WAS VERY GOOD. ACTIVITIES ON THE BUS WERE GOOD. WEATHER WAS NOT VERY ACCOMODATING. LEFT THE TOUR WITH A GOOD FEELING AND TOUR GUIDE WAS VERY INFORMATIVE ABOUT THE SOPRANO'S CAST AND LOCATION SITES. WOULD HAVE LIKED TO TOUR THE SOPRANO'S HOUSE BUT THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. ALL IN ALL - GOOD TOUR!

The guide was very knowledgable about the characters in the show, how they were cast to play the roles and other information that we found interesting. He was entertaining and engaged us in trivia games while traveling. We enjoyed the tour and recommend it to other Soprano enthusiasts.

It was facinating seeing how they filmed the show and all the locations. I also had my first cannoli on the tour. Our guide was very entertaining.

8/14 Tour The bus was very nice and clean. Smooth ride. Very punctual. The sites were cool. We were given a good amount of time to walk around during the stops. I thought the tour guide could have been a little better though. I didn't get many of the jokes he told. He did know his stuff, though.

Tour was way too long, many uninteresting, trite stops...boring. If I were you, I'd cut this in half, play some episodes on the bus, cut some of the chatter from the tour guide--who was good--pick up the pace. Also, actor who signed autographs, which was nice, was not friendly at all.

we were very disappointed with the tour. $40 is outrageous for the empty store front that is satriales (the crew takes down the set and signs for the store when they're not filming) and having to spend time on the side of the highway or in a seedy low class strip joint that moonlights as the bada bing occasionally. the tour guide did his best though with what he had to work with. no complaints with him. there is a tv on the bus and it would help the tour incredibly is you could put a tape together and while we're killing time driving to the next place show the scenes that we're about to see the spots where they were filmed. i just think it would help because 50% of the tour is just driving with nothing to see, so that would be a welcome addition since i know you can't do anything about finding cooler places associated with the show to go to.

We had a great time on this tour - it was well worth the money!Our tour guide John was very entertaining. We got to meet Joe Gannascoli and have our pictures taken. I think the best part for my husband was ending at the Satin Dolls!! There was even a black Escalade parked behind the building!! And, of course, the cannoli was the best we've ever had!! My only suggestion would be to have the Soprano's tapes playing on the bus - it would have been great to see how each of the stops were filmed for the show!!
