Fun and different to do

The tour was great! Did not realize how many movies were filmed in NY over the years. Having the film clips along the tour was nice so you can say, " Oh yea...I remember that scene". I would recommend it for all movie and TV fans.

Rice to Riches and More

We truly enjoyed our tour with Brian who was a highlight himself. We were a group including a family of 4 originally from NY which transplanted to Florida 10 years ago and one of my daughter's teenage friends. Learned a lot despite being knowledgeable about NY. Very interesting to see how different many of the exterior shots look in person compared to on film (makes the buildings look at least 10 pounds fatter). Highly recommend the tour for any TV/Movie fans including native NYers. Especially enjoyed the delicious stop at Rice to Riches (Hitch) where sampled (and bought) multiple flavored rice puddings.

Can't remember the name of our guide, he is an actor and really had so many tidbits to add when he was showing us around. Would recommend to Jaded New Yorkers like myself. I learned alot about my own city.

We all really enjoyed the tour very much. Got to see specific places of interests e.g. the Ghostbusters Fire Station, the Friends building etc and learn lots of new trivia along the way. Also got to see parts of the city we hadn't visited before, so was much more than just a movie/tv tour - a sightseeing tour also! Really good value for money and our tour guide was great too.

Excellent, Informative and Interesting for All

We visited New York the weekend of the heavy snow in February. We booked the tour a couple of days later and although the roads were still a bit snow covered, the driver managed expertly. We absolutely loved this tour. Our guide was funny, informative and very interesting. My 15 year old son ( who normally dreads tours!) really enjoyed it. It was full of information of movies and TV from old and new. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone.

Great tour, great guide, great fun!

As big movie fans, my boyfriend and I recently went on the Manhattan TV and Movie tour on our first visit to New York. We took the tour on our first day in NYC and found it to be a great way to orient ourselves and see parts of the city that we might not have otherwise visited, as well as being interesting from a 'film fan' point of view. Our tour guide was Brian Taylor and his enthusiasm and approachability made the tour all the more enjoyable. Not once did we feel that Brian was just reciting a memorised script or that he'd 'done it all before' and he also gave us general information on life in New York from a local's point of view, which we found particularly interesting. Also, as my boyfriend suffers from travel sickness, Brian was more than happy to reserve the front seat of the bus for us. We travel a lot and have had other guides tell us their tours are strictly 'first come, first seated' which of course has made the tour very unpleasant for my boyfriend! The movie and TV locations were extremely varied and, for anyone who didn't know (or couldn't remember) a particular film, program or character, the short clips shown on the screens on the bus were extremely helpful. Overall, we would both thoroughly recommend this tour and would like to thank Brian for helping to make it one of the most enjoyable things we did in New York.

Brilliant 3 Hours

This trip is definitely one my husband and I would recommend. We went to New York just as the Snow came pouring down and were worried that our tour would not take place on the Monday. But the Bus driver and tour guide were brilliant and negotiated the bus through the snowy streets. This is a great tour if you want to see a lot of New York without sitting on the top deck of a freezing tour bus. We were picked up by coach and taken to all the famous movie and TV spots; we got off the bus 5 times for pictures and short walks. Our tour guide was brilliant and was a native New Yorker, so she was also really helpful on general advice on how to get around New York. I would recommend this tour at the beginning of your holiday as it shows you some parts of NYC you may wish to re-visit later on. Definitely well worth the money and better value than the grayline coaches where you just jump on and off. You can do that on the metro!! Thanks for a great start to our holiday.

Not to be missed
Mon, Feb 13, 06   11:00 AM AliBurke Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
Would recommend this trip especially if you have a short stay in New York, as you get to see areas such as Tribecca, Greenwich, Soho, Meat packing district and Nolita. Interesting locations you would otherwise pass and not know that you'd missed a movie site. Our teenagers loved seeing the " Friends" apartment!
