But don't expect any great insights, or AH-HA moments. It was pleasant, comfortable, enjoyable and fun. But there is nothing here to write home about, and you will forget much of what you saw within a few days. Many really exciting sites are not included because they are north of 60th St.
Tour focuses almost exclusively on Midtown, Grenwich and SoHo. |

I thought the tour was great, our tour guide was funny, engaging, and seemed very knowledgeable! We covered a lot of the Manhattan area, and it gave me a a good idea of what the different areas had to offer, for the rest of the time i had to spend in NY. |

This movie location tour was enjoyable. The guide was knowlegable and very happy to take pictures of you (and your partner) when we stopped at the various local locations. Be prepared for many of the spots to be older movie locals but it was interesting and worthwhile. Good value for money. Only problem is you don't get a list of locations visited so it can be hard to marry up all of your pictures with the movies once you get home. |

Great tour, full of sites and information. Our tour guide Gary (get this guy a raise :) ) was very knowledgeable and shared lots of cool information. The sites were located around Manhattan and tour was also great for get to know the city.
Totally recommend this tour to all TV and film friends, even if you don't know all the shows mentioned, it still great fun!
And there can be some singing and lollipops involved as well. |

We really enjoyed the three and a half hour ride. It was really cool to see the buildings and places of so many interesting movies and shows. Please note that the main focus has been set to "Friends", "Spiderman" and "Gossip Girls" - if you don't know these shows the tour could dissapoint you.
We also missed some hot spots of "King of Queens", it might be an idea to integrate those into the next tour planning. |

DOWNTOWN NEW YORK WITH A TOUCH OF TV

The tour is excellent for seeing areas of New York that you may not normally get to visit e.g. East Village, West Village, Tribeca & Meat Packing district. Although the tour is described as a TV & Movie sites tour, it does tend to focus more on the American TV shows such as Cosby, Friends, Seinfeld. The Movie sites visited are a little limited in the tour and thus the international tourist may not know some of the sites that were visited. Also the sites visited are very 'old' e.g. Cosby House, Friends apartment building, these shows are classics but are no longer in production, it would be great to also include sites for shows such as Mad Men, Law & Order, CSI New York, Black Donnellys, Sopranos which are more recent or even still in production. |

Guide was very informative and entertaining, but movie scene sites were mainly from about 5 recent movies. Some were not that popular. Would have enjoyed more movies mentioned instead of hearing about "Enchanted" and "Sex In The City" so much and nothing about "NYPD Blue or "Rescue Me" (If not filmed there, it would have been nice to know where they did film and why.). |

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the NYC movie & tv locations. Our tour guide, Brian, was extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. As for the tour...well, it's probably the best bang for your buck today. We highly recommend this for everyone...locals, out-of-staters and foreign visitors. A+++ |

Conoci el tour por medio de la TV española. Hicieron un reportaje en el que se veia el desarrollo del tour pero en español. Decidi contratar el tour un dia nates de volar a NY (11-4-09). creia que las explicacionesdel guía serain proporcionadas tambien en español. Aunque es cierto que en ningun lugar del formulario de contratación especifica un idioma diferente al ingles, creo que esto debería dejarse mas explicito en posteriores formularios para informar al consumidor claramente que el único idioma del tour es el ingles.
En mi caso y en el de mi esposa, no aprovechamos el tour porque ninguno de los dos hablamos ingles.De haber sabido que era en esa lengua en la que se iban a dar las explicaciones, no hubieramos contratado el tour.
gracias por darme la oportunidad de expresar mis opiniones.
