New York TV and Movie Sites

As a group of six girls on a girlie weekend, we were really looking forward to doing a sightseeing tour. Three in the group had visited NY before and for the other three it was their first time. So we wanted a tour that was fun and showed off the city. This was neither. Not only did we not cover that much ground (despite it being a 3 hr tour) but our guide 'Missy' was an 'aspiring' actress who never failed to link a story about her a) self b) apartment c) friends d) family e) job. I guess if you like Seinfeld (none of us watched it) or you liked the movie Spiderman you would have learned a few things...also if you were familiar with some older US sitcoms you might have enjoyed it better. The best thing about this tour is the pick up point - across the road from Stardust Diner - now that's definitely worth going to - the waiters and waitresses take it in turn to sing which is fun! So, not worth the $30 I'm afraid - although with that said with a different tour guide the information may have been better. They need to update their movie knowledge and trivia.

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.

It was a very nice tour. We saw many things of interest to the TV and Film fan as well as different celebrity apartments.

We were 3 generations - youngest 18 years and oldest 71 years. We all enjoyed this tour. Our guide was wonderful and lots of fun. We liked seeing the apartment building where the different stars lived. We enjoyed seeing where tv shots were filmed. The 3 hours went by very quickly for all of us.

Kim our guide was great, very knowledgeable, fun and funny. she knew a terrific amount of TV and movie trivia, a necessity on this tour. I thought it was fun and my daughter, the TV and movie junkie, loved it even more. Thanks!

My first reaction is that the bus was comfortable, clean, and the driver skilled in traffic. The tour was a good way to take a look at some out of the way places in Manhattan with the theme of locations from TV and movies. We had a cheerful guide who kept up her commentary with humor. The tour is good for sitting for three hours after traveling Manhattan on foot for a while. The sites the tour covered were a little out of date: Cosby show, Friends, Seinfeld. I would have liked some Law and Order or CSI sites included. That is my only complaint.

What a fantastic way to spend a morning! This tour takes you to favorite tv and movie sites, while showing footage from the films on the bus tv's. The guide is very knowledgeable and fun, making the tour a comfortable day that feels like a trip spent with friends. If it's raining, you will get wet getting off the bus to see certain sites, but for us it was definitely worth it! Definitely go on this tour...it's a great adventure!

I thought I knew a lot about movies and tv shows until I took part in this tour. Not only does it show the sets and locations used in a number of films/tv shows but it also gives an insight into how they are made and the 'tricks of the trade'. We took this tour on our last day in Manhatten and finished the trip on a high. Extremely recommended, especially for young couples and adults with children.

What a great way to tour the city. Very informative tour guide and driver. It was great for the kids to see video clips of a show or movie, then actually see where it was filmed.

I recently relocated from CA to NY to be with my fiancé, who was born and raised in NY, and given our different backgrounds, we both loved it. It wasn't your typical boring tourist tour of historical sites and monuments. The tour was 3 hrs long with four 10-15 minutes stops which gave you a great opportunity to stretch and take pictures. The host was enthusiastic and possessed great energy; you couldn't help but be enthralled by her up beat personality. My favorite part of the tour was the stop from the Ghostbusters movie; it is now an actual fire house and we got to take pictures with the firefighters from the station! I would recommend every TV / movie buff to take this tour!
