First off I would like to commend our Guide (Roseanne) and Driver (Mike) on a job well done...There were may interesting locations, though limited "Hop-0n / Hop-Off" experience. Roseanne is very knowledeable and quite friendly, and Mike drove extremely well, inspite of all the traffic. The Movie Clippings that were shown, prior to the up-coming locations, were quite helpful. In the future I would recommend more Hop-On / Hop-Off Locations, more Up-to-Date Sitcoms/Scenes, an additional hour would be great and a memorabilia for keep sake. The following are just a few locations for future reference:
1. King of Queen's (Up-to-Date Sitcom)
2. Serendipity 3 / Bloomingdale's (Serendipity)
3. The Waldorf Astoria (Coming To America)
4. Hotel used in Maid In Manhattan (Jennifer Lopez)
I recommend this tour to all who are TV "Junkies" and to everyone from Hawai'i who plan to visit the Big Apple.
Mahalo (Thank You) for the memorable tour... |

| I really enjoyed my tour. The guide, Jessica (I believe) was fantastic! Very knowledgable, energetic and personable. The only problem that I had with the tour was the start/end time. I would have preferred an earlier start time of 9:30 or 10:00 so that I would have been able to do another tour later in the day (trying to fit as much in as possible in a short 4 day visit). Otherwise I would definitely recommend this tour. I'm hoping to come back soon to do the Sex and the City tour! I thought the black and white cookie we got was an added bonus and I liked getting the pamphlet outlining what we saw and also the sheet telling us which movies were being filmed in NYC at the time. Thanks!! |

| The tour guide could have been a little less talkative about her own personal experiences. I felt like I was getting an autobiography of her life story than information on different sites; however, she was very knowledgeable. Also there were some technical difficulties on the bus. Even still, it was definitely a highlight of my trip. |

| Our tour guide , Kymberley was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable on our tour. She kept the energy up in our group which was composed of many international tourists. It was a bit of a challenge I'm sure, but she did a wonderful job. It was very interesting seeing so many movie locations. I did not realize that so many movies had been made in NYC. I liked seeing the location, hearing a description of it, and then seeing the clip in the monitor. It made everything come together. It was also nice to be able to get off the bus at times(even though it was raining) to see the locations in person. My only criticism would be that the tour was a little long and singing the theme songs from the tv sitcoms was a bit lame. Other than that, it was great! Loved Kymberley! |

| I don't usually like tours and wasn't sure I would like sitting on a bus for 3 1/2 hours, but this tour was worth every minute. Kimberly Tuttle was our tour guide, and she was fantastic. The bus is air conditioned with huge windows, so you don't miss a thing. There were so many interesting sights from popular tv shows and movies, some old and some new, which provided something interesting for everyone. On several locations, the bus stopped and let us get out to experience the location close and personal. An added bonus of this tour, not only do you get to experience tv and movie sights, it's a great way to see Manhattan, Soho, and Greenwich Village. If you are able to find an Entertainment Book coupon, you get two for the price of one. I highly recommend this tour. |

| This tour was filled with excitement! The tour guide was extremely informative and added a little entertainment as well. It was great to actually see the sites in person. This tour made me want to scan previously viewed movies and t.v. shows just to compare or simply get another glimpse. |

A great time spent!

| I recently took the Manhattan TV and Movie Tour on a Friday morning. I was able to easily book the tickets on-line for myself, my husband and my daughter (a college student now living in NYC). It was a really fun time! We spent 3 hours riding around the city viewing TV/Movie locations such as exterior shots of the Huxtable house on The Cosby Show, scenes from Spiderman, Friends, Soup Nazi from Seinfeld and many more. The trip was highlighted with clips on the bus TV from these shows and movies. We even got to sample some delectable treats along the way! Three stops were provided on the tour for us to get off the bus, explore and have a photo op. Our tour guide was loaded with personality and knowledge about current gossip, which made the adventure even more fun. Toward the end of the tour, she engaged her passengers in a friendly game of trivia; correct answers were rewarded with a piece of candy. At the conclusion of the tour, all of us agreed that we had had a great time and even saw some new sites of the city that we had never seen. It's a great way to spend 3 hours, to see NYC and to see where your favorite TV shows and movies were shot. I highly recommend it! |
