New York TV and Movie Sites

We had a blast with this tour. Our guide Roseanne was over the top. Her enthusiasm was infectious. The tour was a combo of a detailed guided tour of New York City neighborhoods and landmarks plus the added fun of seeing locations from the movies and TV all accompanied by clips of scenes from the movies and TV highlighting what we just saw. I especially enjoyed the frequent walking tours of movie/TV locations interspersed with the comfortable bus ride. Without a doubt, one of the best tours I have ever taken in NYC. RM, Baltimore, MD

I have taken both the Sex and the City Tour and the Movie/TV Tour through this On Location. I very much enjoyed both tours. I would definetely recommend this tour -- it is a great price for a great tour!!!

I was born and live in Colombia, although I've been living in NJ for the last 5 months for a job assignment. During these 5 months I went to NYC every time I could but it wasn't until this saturday, my last weekend in the US before I come back to my country, that I had the opportunity to take this tour. I didn't want leave withouth taking my picture with the Friend's building, that was my motivation. I went by myself, the tour guide was very friendly and we started right on time. It was nice to see that other people in the bus were by themselves too, so I wasn't the only loner and I actually ended up making some friends. However, to be honest, I didn't enjoyed the tour that much. Don't take me wrong, I don't have any complaints regarding the tour as itself. In fact, I found it very informative and I liked that the story telling is accompanied with movie scenes projected on the screens of the bus. However, I think I would have enjoyed it much more if this had been my first time in the City. The thing is that I had seen most of the sights before during previous visits to NYC. Of course, the tour made me look at them with a different perspective after finding out the movies that were shot at each location. I just wish I had taken this tour earlier. It would have been a great way to see NYC for the first time. So, if this is not your first time in NYC, I don't think you should take this tour because you might have been before in most of the sites. However, if this is your first day here and you are a big fan of movies and TV series, go for it!! Actually, that's another thing: I am the ultimate TV viewer and I remember a lot of details from movies, so I knew what the tour guide was talking about. But if you are one of those that forget scenes and dialogues right after leaving the movie teather, you will probably be clueless during the 2-hours tour. You have to be a great fan and you have to have seen new shows such us Gossip Girl because this one is mentioned a little too much during the tour. Finally, I think the tour would be better if there were more hop offs. I don't know if the walking is more extensive in other seasons, but we only left the bus in 2 opportunities.

On a cold winter day this was a great way for me to tour around New York with my 17 year old daughter. She hates walking but loves tv shows and movies. I hate the cold so I enjoyed staying warm and cozy on the bus while Brian, our tour guide entertained us with views of places that had been used in some of our favorite tv shows and movies. The bus even had a DVD player where Brian was able to show us clips of the shots from shows and then he pointed out the actual building. My daughter being an avid "Friends" fan particularly liked seeing the building "Friends" seemingly takes place in as well as a glimpse of where David Schwimmer actually lives. Brian also enlightened us on how cameramen angle their camera's or use light in order to adjust an image. I found the tour to be relaxing, entertaining and informative.

I loved that the tour was led by a born and bred new yorker. She also was an actor who has worked with some of my fav actors! I am very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone! Our tour guide was amazing!

We visited Jan. 17-20. The temperature was quite frigid. We had taken the tour about 18 months ago. We had a group with us, who were first time visitors to NYC. This was a warm way for our friends to see the city in 10 degree weather.

Even though the tour didn't go to or mention some of the places in the older shows that I remember, it did cover a lot of territory. Additionally, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our 20 year old daughter was with my husband and I on the tour and she knew much more about the recent TV shows and movie scenes referenced by the guide. I would recommend this tour and also plan on taking the Greenwich Village tour next time I'm in NYC.

Mention Grace Adler Design (from Will & Grace) before you pass it. We wished we had sat on the right-hand side of the bus- the locations all seemed to be on that side- hard to see on the left (driver's) side. They said we wouldn't be eating, so we ate right before we went, and then we stopped for pizza- which was really good. Not as many tv show spottings- way too much of Gossip Girl. Would've been nice to hear more about how people go about filming on location- it just seems like it'd be so hard to do.

It was a fun way to learn about the many places in New York that were filmed.

This is the second time I have taken the movie tour and they have added some great new stops, including lunch! Our tour guide knew more than google! and she was pregnant too! This was the best tour my Mom and I could take. I recommend this tour to anyone who knows the city or is a new visitor to the best city in America!
