| THE TOUR GUIDE FOR THE TRIP DID THE BEST SHE COULD DO CONSIDERING THE BUS DRIVER WASN'T WORKING WITH HER TO FOR THE TOUR. WHEN WE GOT OFF THE BUS TO TOUR THE COSBY STEP WE HAD TO WALK FOR ABOUT 5 BLOCKS BECAUSE THE DRIVER WOULDN'T TURN DOWN THE ROAD SHE NEEDED FOR THE TOUR. THE WEB SITE THAT I WENT FOR THE TOUR SAID VISIT THE APARTMENT BUILDING WHERE MONICA CHANDLER AND OTHER FRIENDS LIVE (WALKED BY). SIT ON THE STEPS OF THE COSBY TOWNHOUSE (DID). GO ON LOCATION TO THE BUILDING WHERE GRACE ON WILL & GRACE HAS HER DESIGN STUDIO (DIDN'T DO). WITNESS WHERE THE ARRESTS HAPPEN ON NYPD (DIDN'T HAPPEN). ORDER SOUP FROM THE SEINFELD "SOUP NAZI" ( DIDN'T HAPPEN ONLY OPEN FROM NOV TO FEB). LISTEN TO TV THEME SONGS AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES INFO ON THE SHOWS (HAPPEN). MORE THAN 15 TV SHOWS INCLUDED IN THE TOUR ( NOT TRUE WE ONLY DID WHAT I WROTE HAPPEN OR WALKED BY. I WANT EVERY ONE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE TOUR GUIDE REALLY DID HER BEST. |

| It was interesting to see sites that have been used in tv shows and movies that you might otherwise pass by and not have any knowledge of it. I wish more sites had been included in the tour, and in fact, on our visit the bus driver and tour guide had an agrument as to whether he could go down a certain street. This discussion went on for about 10 minutes and at one point we were asked to exit the bus and walk to the street a block over. The driver then decided he would go to it, but it was a disruptive part of the tour. |

| I thought the tour was good, the tour guide was excellent (she never gave her name).
But I felt it wasn't comprehensive enough. I know its a separate tour but defintely more locales should be included, like more Sex & the City stuff.
I felt like alot of the places mentioned we would know just from seeing the movie. (eg:the arch at Washington Square, most pple know that was from When harry met sally)
the tour guide made it fun & informative though, a petite blonde woman. |

| The tour was very nice. It was nice being in an air conditioned bus and having the opportunity to get out at different locations to take pictures.
I not only enjoyed seeing the famous spots where TV shows are filmed but having the opportunity to view the city and other highlights and/or hot spots.
It gave me a better sense of the city and other places to visit (i.e., Central Park, Greenwich Village, etc.).
I would recommend this to any tourist. Thank you. |

| It was a nice tour. A little too long and pricey. 15 dollars would be more reasonable considering most of the tour is spent sitting in traffic waiting to get to the next destination. Also would have liked to see a little bit of all four tours. We wanted to see where the celebrities lived (in one tour). We wanted to see some of sex in the city(in one tour) etc. But, I guess that's how they make their money. The bus was comfortable and air conditioned (make sure you bring your own toilet paper though if you have to go to the bathroom) |

| It's unfortunate that so many locations are really in Hollywood. Perhaps it could have included more actual locations which requires a lot more homework and studying of TV and film to fill in the quiet gap as we drove uptown on the East Side (where there was hardly any information).
There was a problem with the bus (a very loud buzzing noise) which the driver and guide could not fix.
Our Guide was sweet and the girls enjoyed the trip, but were disappointed at the lack of true locations. |

| The bus was 15 mintues late and when it arrived and we boarded it we heard an awful buzzing sound.
It was exremly load and the bus driver was unable to get it to stop, so we heard it for the enite 2 1/2 hour tour.
Our tour guide was great and she rally knew alot about the sites. I would recommend the tour, chances are the
bus is fixed by now. |

| Tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide was so entertaining, and we really enjoyed seeing the TV sites - especially the FRIENDS apartment building. We are back home now and every time we turn on the TV we find ourselves saying, "We were there!" Would recommend this tour to all. |

| Highly recommend! The tour guide was well informed, and made the 2 1/2 hours well worth it. She gave us more info than I thought we would receive. The bus was air conditioned and comfortable. Location to meet bus was great. Definitely not one to miss!
