Very entertaining. Not only did we see the actual sites where specific movie and TV scenes were shot, but our tour guide gave us some insights on how specific scenes were shot. I promised not tell... but we did find out the scoop on where several celebrities reside in Manhattan. This activity is definitely a MUST DO! |

My friend and I enjoyed this tour. What I found as a bonus was that it was a great way to see the different areas of NYC. I love movies and being able to put myself in the places was fun. Also, you have a chance to meet people from all over and I find that interesting as well. We are from California and sat next to a couple that live in London but are from Italy and Sweden. This made for interesting travel around town.
The black and white cookie was a nice bonus. |

We paid 17 bucks for a 5 year old, and (2) 10 year olds. All 3 slept through most of the tour. So in short, I paid 51 bucks for them to nap on a bus. That was very disappointing. They did not understand all the shows and what it meant to see the spots of movie and TV shows. I would have liked to stopped more and looked at these places. I did like the tour, I wish there was a map of the path we traveled though. That way I could walk back to some of the place I would have like to see again. Some place I could only see out of the bus window through other peoples' heads.
Thank you,
Troy |

The bus was clean and the air conditioning worked great on a hot day. The girl
who talked to us was very friendly and informative. She even took pictures of
everyone at different stops. The tour was a great deal because for three hours we
were told about different celebrity homes and factual information about New York.
We really enjoyed the tour. In fact, all six of my party mentioned how much they
enjoyed the tour. Thank you! |

This tour was really great. The tour guide(sorry i forgot his name) was enthusiatic and informative. I liked how he supplied movie clips to each place we went as it helped you to see how the place came across in the movies.
It was nice how the tour guide gave us a bickie and then had a quiz.
I have totally recommended it to my freind who is going to new york in a week.
Thanks for the tour it was money well spent... |

While it was fun to see where places were filmed, the tour was too long to just be sitting on a bus looking out a window. it was almost like watching a movie because we were looking through yet another screen - the window. after an hour and a half i was itching to get out and do my own thing.
i would have enjoyed it more if we were able to get off of the bust and get a closer look at the sites. my sister and i we tried to find these sites afterwards, but got completely lost in Greenwich village. out host, Jessica mentioned that on other tours there were more opportunities to get off the bus and see the sites, so why weren't they incorporated with this tour? there were only 3 stops in three hours.
our guide was helpful though. entertaining.
i think the tour would have been better if it were a smaller group. people wouldn't feel so shy, (which everyone was) if it was a smaller vehicle with about 10 people, there would have been space to stop the car/van and get out and see places. the tour might have to be cut down, but it would be a heck of a whole lot more fun. there were only about 10-15 of us on that huge bus anyway. and during stops, the bus stayed running. what about pollution? and with the price of gas, it seemed very wasteful.
