I've been on 2 tours now with your company and both times I had a very nice time. Each guide was knowledgeable and fun (theatrical)! Enjoyed the places we were shown and liked getting to stop some to take pics and try the foods. Saw a movie beeing shot while we were on tour and that was fun! Would recommend it to others freely!

I really enjoyed this tour as our guide, Brian, was very informative & funny. We seen ALOT including Uma Thurman on a live movie set which was pretty cool. The tour had a great variety of spots to see and walk to that I really liked. I would definitely recommend the TV Movie tour to everyone I know. I love movies so this was perfect for me. The bus was very comfortable and we had a great driver to navigate the N.Y. streets. Thank you.

The tour was excellent, we stopped at the Cosby house, the Friends building, and we were able to eat at Rice to Riches which was on the movie Hitch. We saw the fire station used in Ghostbusters. We walked the streets where Bid Daddy was filmed. We even sang on the bus to the Friends theme song. My wife and I had the best time on the tour. The tour gives you a good idea of what happens in New York without having to walk everywhere. Highly recommend this tour, it was on a charter bus which was nice and cool. Our tour guide played tv and movie clips of what we were actually seeing and how the places were used on films.

This tour showed you quite a bit of the city and the many places where shows and movies have been filmed. It was interesting to see many familiar sights that I have seen in shows over the years. You will do a little bit of walking at a couple of stops, so wear comfortable walking shoes.

Very disappointed in sites

Tour was alright, seemed a little long and boring at times. Would have liked to seen more current sites. The Cosby Show, Ghost Busters and Friends have been off the air for some time. Should have done the Greenwich Food one instead. Overall the driver and guide were satisfactory

Well worth it

I really enjoyed our tour and tour guide Roseanne. It is always wonderful to have a guide who is from the area and really knows her stuff. We enjoyed the signing, the cookies and most of all the sights. Thank you for a great afternoon. Cathy, Geoff Rankin Sherry, Laura and Geoff Weston from New Brunswick Canada

Brian is a great guide and has a lot of "geeky" information on movies and TV shows - hilarious! the bus was really clean and comfortable and the AC felt great (it was an extremely hot day). there aren't many stops but they're well placed. i can only recommend this tour.

Fun way to see Manhattan

My adult children and I took the tour. My son and daughter-in-law live in New York. For my daughter, it was the first trip to New York, and a sixth visit for me. Each of us learned a lot about the city by taking the tour. The guide was entertaining and very knowledgeable about the whole process of making movies in the city. The bus was very comfortable, especially on a really hot day in New York. If you love movies and television shows, this is a great tour, and if you're real lucky, you might even get to see one being filmed.

For out of towners, it was decent and people seemed to take a lot of pictures. For people that live in NYC, not so great. A lot of the movies referenced on the tour were old movies. The guide called the Meat Packing District "MEPA" which NO ONE that lives in NYC calls it (I've asked around since the tour). I know the tour IS more geared toward out of towners, so I understand. A bit too long, not enough stops. I did like having the movie/tv clips. We were a group of 6. We arrived 15 minutes early as indicated and we weren't able to sit together and there was no attempt to help that. I had to sit in the front by myself, one other person sat by herself and the other 4 were scattered in 2s. I would think that when a group larger than 2 books a tour, perhaps seats are saved for them rather than just a fend for yourself type of thing. For groups of 2-3, I can understand, but for larger groups, it should be part of the booking process. I don't think I would recommend it, even to out of towners.
