| The tour guide was enthusiastic & full of information.
It would be nice to be able to stop & see the inside of more places, but understand this is not always possible. |

Enjoyable and fun. Must do if TV and movies fan.

| We enjoyed the tour. Our guide Gary made it fun and interesting. We did learn some new things that we did not know about previously. The time frame is sufficient. More photo stop opportunities would have been great.
Constructive Feedback - please advise customers of destination stop of where tour ends.
Overall - good value and would recommend tour to others. |

| The tour guide made this tour enjoyable. I think that if you end up with a less than spetacular guide, it could be a waste of time. Good luck. |

Lots of laughs

| I found the tour enjoyable. I was with my girls ( 10, 14, 16) and they too had a good time.
I did find a lot of redundancy of the same few movies metioned...i.e. Ghostbusters.
I would have liked to see the DVD scene played right before or right after the spot....Not as clumps as we drove around as it would be immediately fresh.
I know of many other movies shot around town that could have been mentioned (especially, again not the same 4 or 5)....
Our tour guide was very sweet and knowledgeable and fun and I would reccomend him to someone else taking the tour (Gary) |

| Me and two more friends were visiting the city and wanted to have a peek of the exciting sites of NY since we are all fans of the American TV and movies, however this tour gave us nothing of that... Here are some reasons to support what I am saying.
-Most of the time we were on the bus the tour guide was talking about stuff didn't have nothing to do with the tour (where the passengers were from-for about the first hour, very poor information about filming facts, etc)
- You get to see too few memorable or interesting places.
- The tour guide was everything but friendly, kind of cocky and boring as hell!!!!
- We only made 3 stops, each of 5 to 7 min each and the tour lasted 3,5 hoursss!!!!
MOST IMPORTANT REASON WHY YOU SHOULDN'T TAKE THIS TOUR:
In one stop, one of our friends went to buy some coffee and she was late (in a 5 min stop) and they DID NOT WAIT AND WENT AWAY WITHOUT HER not even for 2 min, because she was going to delay the tour. She had to run after the bus to catch it. |

Excellent value for movie fans AND non movie fans

| This was an excellent tour. I booked easily over the phone.
The buses were new, clean and comfortable. The tour guide, Roseanne, was brilliant.
The tour is very comprehensive and covered a large part of Manhattan, so it's also a great way to see New York City, even if you're not a movie buff.
There were dozens of movie and TV locations covered and stops were made at The Cosby Show house, Ghostbusters firehouse and Ben's Pizza for a very quick lunch.
Roseanne cheerfully explained some of the history of the local film scene and also pointed out where to spot movie stars for those that may be interested. She was excellent and made it very enjoyable.
The tour was well organised and started and finished on time (near Times Square) and was easy to find the buses. After the tour, a comprehensive list of all the movie sites covered was provided as a souvenir.
Great job - a highlight of my visit. |

Next best thing to starring in a movie yourself!

| We enjoyed the tour and our guide was a very happy informative person. The only down side of the tour is that we get to find out that almost 90% of all our favorite shows that we think take place in NY are actually shot in L.A. This point our tour guide kept repeating it over and over. It would of been nice if she wouldn't of made such a big deal about this.
All in all I recommend it to al lthe T.V. & movie lovers. Our teenagers came with us and they also enjoyed the tour.
Thank you. |
