| The tour was informative, fun, and a great deal. We saw parts of the city we never would have found ourselves. It kept a 10 year old entertained, as well as being "gentle enough" for a 70 year old with bad knees. I only wish the sun hadn't set so early. |

| My husband, children and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on this tour. It was interesting, educational, and our tour guide, Kimberly, was great!!!
We learned a lot about NYC.
It was great being on the warm bus because it was very cold and windy that day, but beautiful , sunny, blue skies!!! We got great pictures, and we enjoyed watching the replay of the fims as we passed the movie sites of the acutal movie, the trivia game, etc. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks again. |

| I enjoyed the education I received from my tour guide about how the tv industry does establishing shots and, in general, the magic of television. There were fun trivia questions as well as interesting information about where celebrities live and what folks pay to live in New York City. |

| After just a 1-day visit previously, it was pretty much our first time to NY, and we packed as much as we could into it. After a couple of days of intense walking and cold, the warm bus and cheerful guide (Kymberly) were very welcome. The visit to the Friends building was the highlight for my 13 year old daughter and we all appreciated visiting parts of the city that we had not been, or would have been, able to see on foot with our limited schedule. The clips shown are great to better appreciate the locations visited and are very well coordinated with the actual route, traffic permitting. The rice pudding place and cookie were fun, but we were not too crazy about them. Great job with the unexpected traffic detour. |

| Hi,
We came on the 17th November, it was a really cold day. But it was made up, by the excellent tour guide, who was friendly, funny, and was preety cute.
He knew lots of stuff, the tour was packed with exciting stuff to see, and fun stories.
It had more stops, then I expected.
The only thing I would reccomend is adding more thing and making it longer, maybe including stuff from central park!!
Have recommended to many people!!!
Keep the good work up!!! |

| The movie and TV sites tour was awesome! Brian was our tour guide, and he did a wonderful job! The information was very interesting, and having the chance to see so many cool famous places in the city was neat. He made it totally fun and the time went by very fast. We did a combination of riding the bus and getting off at several locations to get a closer look, which was very cool. My mom was with me, and she is in her 70's, it was great for her because it did not involve too much walking, and we got to see so much in the 3 1/2 hours of the tour. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is remotely a movie &/or TV buff! It was fun!! |

| I wanted to go on this tour to see locations from shows like Seinfeld, Friends etc. Instead I mostly got locations from movies I have never seen, and some I have never even heard of. 50% were from the movie Hitch, which I didn't see and didn't associate with New York. Some of the more interesting locations we zoomed by on the bus but not long enough to get a picture.
The few times we were off the bus, the tour guide would start walking and talking without waiting for the whole group. My husband and I were sitting near the back so we were always the last ones off. We would have to run to keep up with the group, sometimes being more than a block away from them if the lights turned red. We couldn't hear what our guide was saying half the time either.
A big disappointment and a waste of 2.5 hours. I would recommend doing a little research on your own about locations you want to see and just take the subway there. |

| This tour is not suitable for international visitors as it mostly referred to US TV. Also the bus was ancient with water leaking onto the seats, the monitors would not work and when they did the clips of tv/film were very poor. After the first half hour we were so bored we got off the tour at the first available opportunity. |
