The air conditioning in the bus was broken. It was terribly hot and I was getting sick. Need I say more? |
 |
Great fun and an excellent tour guide! |

One complaint however - no air conditioning on the bus. It was a hot day and almost unbearably airless. This did spoil our enjoyment of what was otherwise a fab tour. |

Great for awhile |

We have never been to the Big Apple and we are devout fans of the "Soprano's" and were looking forward to the tour with great anticipation. It started off well despite of the very inclimate weather. We were absolutely thrilled to meet and get an autographed picture and take a picture of Vito before we started off on the tour. The tour director(I'm sorry, I forgot his name) was fabulous and his knowledge of all the Soprano facts was simply amazing. He was a human computer! BUT, very unfortunately, due to the rain and flooding the trip was cut short. I was very disappointed that I didn't get to see Bada Bing's or Satriale's or any of the other sites. The tour company offered to reschedule my tour later but unfortunately we would not be in the area in the immediate future. I was then given a refund but will DEFINITELY take this tour the next time I'm in the Big Apple. You should take this tour if you are a true Soprano fan! |

We had tickets to go on the Sopranos tour on sunday 15th April 2007. The weather was horrendous with huge rainfall and flooding on the streets of Manhattan. The tour started and the coach was leaking water onto some of the guests on the tour. There were no spare seats for them to move to so that had to sit there getting wet. We went ahead with the touor even though the windows were steamed up on the coach, which combined with the torrential rain outside meant that we could hardly see anything. I was quite disappointed. Finally after seeing the flooding in New Jersey which meant many roads were closed and the police and fire brigade were out in force they decided to cancel the tour and tried to rearrange the tour for another day. Eventually it was decided that it could not be rescheduled due to uncertainty about the weather and we were all given a full refund. It was very disappointing as it had been our main reason for visiting New York from England. I think that they did the right thing by cancelling the tour.....my only criticism is that I think it should have been cancelled before it started due to the weather. |

The trip was fantastic!!!! We love The Soprano's in England and as soon as we decided that we were coming to New York, The Soprano's tour was one of the first things we thought about, other than shopping!
The sites along the tour were great to see and the host was brilliant, we particularly enjoyed the tour quiz too! Marc was very informative, we didn't know half as much about The Soprano's as we thought we did!
It was great to see Satriales - The Pork Store and the diner where Chris was shot and Bada Bing!!! That was brilliant.
We had heard that Vito was occasionally about when the tours took place, however were really pleased to have our photograph taken with him to show everyone back home.
Finally were back in the UK and are excited about the second part to series 6!
Thanks once again for a fantastic tour! We have told everyone about it!!! |

Yes, I was just like you sitting at my computer reading all the reviews from other people who were considering the tour and thought they were probably a little embellished but I have to say they were right on. My 'goomah' and I took the tour on April 8th and we both really enjoyed the afternoon. Tour guide Marc was great, maybe even too knowledgeable . Some of the trivia he was asking was very 'trivial' and was often responded with the sound of crickets from everyone on the bus. Really he was very good and was enjoyable to listen to. I would recommend the tour to anyone who is interested or has just seen a few episodes. Hurry, Satriales won't be around much longer. They plan on leveling the building soon to make way for something new. Don't be a 'jamook' get some 'stugots' and take the tour already. 'Fuhgetaboutit' |
