| I thought the guide was very good as she was informative, fun and professional. The tour was good to do not just as a movie and tv tour but also as a look around manhattan generally as the tour went from upper west side down to greenwich village. It was great that the movie in mention was shown on the monitors on the bus, however some of the movies seemed outdated and left me wondering if there could have been more recent examples. Places where stars lived was well covered. I would recommend the tour as it was an enjoyable part of our visit to New York. |

| We really enjoyed the tour. We never would have seen all of Manhattan without taking the tour.
Our tourguide was excellent! |

| This was the first tour we took on our trip. The bus was very comfortable and the tour guide was funny, informative, and very friendly. It was a great way to see the City and learn about TV/Movie Land. We decided from the trip where we definitely wanted to spend more time exploring. The only negative thing I would even mention was that the directions to the bus stated that someone would be holding a blue flag and in front of Ellen's Stardust Diner. This was not exactly true and we walked past the bus four times before we realized it was our tour bus. However, we made it on time and ended up taking a tour I would highly recommend!! |

| I felt that the tour was average, our tour guide was good. I was disappointed that it was impossible to take any pictures from the bus as the windows had decals/stickers on them that blocked the view. It would have been better if the bus was a double decker, so people could ride with a view of the buildings other than view of just the first 2 floors. Also thought that the tour focused a bit too much on "Friends" but I guess that was the tour guides' favorite show. |

| Tour guide was excellent & very knowledgeable. Excellent way to see New York, although not as many photos opportunities as I thought there would be.
Also many of the sights seemed to be on one side of the coach - we were sat in the wrong side. |

| The Manhattan TV and Movie Tour was an enjoyable experience. I appreciated having the opportunity to visit some famous spots I would never have found on my own, and learning about establishment shots was quite fascinating. The tour was three hours and the time flew by. Our tour guide kept us entertained with quiz games and prizes, and we viewed segments of TV shows and movies on in-coach monitors as we arrived at the sites. I marvel at the magic of the filming crews who can make the buildings appear larger than they truly are. A must-see for movie lovers and a good introduction to Manhattan as lots of areas are covered. |

| It was very fun ,however I think our tour guide was a trainee, as a second guide was "tagging" along. We heard her remind our guide to turn on the video, tell our group who lived in a particular building, etc. The places we saw were fun and exciting, but the presentation was a bit choppy. However, our guide had a great singing voice, and had us do a sing along, so I'm sure she'll be excellent once she gets some experience.
We saw lots more than we ever expected, and I liked the video clips we did see, as they should the exact location in the show. |

| We really enjoyed the tour. Erica, the guide, was terrific, and she had a lot of knowledge about everything.
The only thing is that we thought there will be more stops, so we can take pictures of more sites (or else I would expect to recieve a list of those sites next to which we passed, so that we could visit them once again, on our own). |
