| as a christmas present for my movie-loving boyfriend, we decided to take this tour. we are from long island and felt that the commute was simple, and very convenient for those traveling into the city. we were the only new yorkers on the tour that day, and were very excited about discovering great television and movie locations right in our own backyard! |

| The tour was awesome! Our favorite part was seeing the house used for the "Cosby Show". Loved the tour, although some parts weren't as interesting as we've never seen "You've Got Mail" or "Sex in the City". We'd definitely recommend the tour ! |

| Overall it was very good and the young lady that led the group was excellent and very informative and helpful.
There was no provision made however, for any non-native speakers, which while not a problem for us could be an obvious lack nevertheless for people from abroad.
The tour packed a lot in but perhaps (especially for non-Americans) some props such as pictures from the series/films being mentioned may help to set the scene better and give the tour guide an easier time?
Although the time constraints are obvious a few more "Get off the bus and be there" stops would have been welcome as well. Finally, on a personal note, we were slightly disappointed NOT to get to see the diner from Seinfeld or anything from either the "King of Queens" or "The Nanny" as obvious New York based sitcoms?
Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed the tour which was definitely a highlight of the trip and we would recommend it strongly to any friends or acquaintances visiting the city....
Also, we felt it was very fairly priced!
Thank you very much for a nice time! |

| Really enjoyed the entire experience. Saw so many sites that I have seen on my favorite TV & Movies. The only drawback was length of tour. I think the tour was about 45 minutes too long. Our tour guide was perfect. |

| Our tour was very exciting and interesting. Our tour guide showed us everything, from the Friends building to the local hangout of the stars in New York. It was worth it! |

| We booked the tour from the UK and were really looking forward to it unfortunately we were very dissappointed. The tour guide was a very obvious Friends and Seinfeld fan and most of the commentary was on these 2 programmes, in the UK Friends is on the way out and Seinfeld just isn't that popular, none of us had seen it.She knew there was amixture of American and International people on the coach but seemed to assume we were only there to see things connected to Friends or Seinfeld.We were very dissapointed that the tour guides information was quite out of date, she seemed to mainly quote When Harry Met Sally and You've Got Mail. There have been lots of more recent films that have been shot in New York but these were either not mentioned at all or dismissed with one line. If you are a real film fan then we do not believe this tour is for you. If you want to kill 3 hours then at least the coach was comfy. Would rather have spent the time doing something else. |

| Pick up point well described and coach was on time. Kimberley the Tour Guide was an excellent hostess and organiser with a vast knowledge of both movies and movie locations. With her movie quiz questions at various points on the tour, she kindled an ongoing interest within her guests. The tour systematically passed thru these locations with an opportunity to alight to both stretch the legs and get close-up. We were fortunate to have four or five inches of snow over the tour period and this was just the icing on the cake. We would not hesitate to recommend this tour to TV and Movie buffs alike and people like us who are just addicted to Friends as well as movies set in New York. An excellent value for money tour! |

| This tour was great! The guide was full of energy and full of great trivia about tv, movies, and celebrities. We went all over the city, moving through loads of traffic with ease. We were able to get off the bus at different places and actually go inside or stand on the steps of places you see on tv shows or movies. It was so nice to take a a break from the freezing cold and wind in our nice warm bus. We watched in horror at the poor people freezing in those double decker open air tour buses!!
We would highly recommend this tour to anyone! |

| This was a great tour! We saw many sites we would never know about if we hadn't taken this tour. Others that were traveling with us but didn't take this tour were very sorry they didn't when we told them all we had seen.
The guide was very knowledgable and full of great trivia facts about movies, tv, stars, etc. She was full of energy and had a great personality.
Its a great way to see New York in the winter, i.e, warm, not much walking and safe!
Thanks again for the great tour and bargain! |
