| My friend and I undertook this tour as part of a five day stay in New York. From beginning to end the whole tour was great. Our female tour guide was friendly, comical and made the whole tour fun.
The tour covered so much that tourists would possibly not see, or recognise, if making their own way around New York.
The tour was well worth the cost, as I said before, the amount of information we were given was just wonderful - mind boggling in fact. We got some great 'photo's and would certainly recommend the tour to friends, or anyone viewing it on the website - it was a highlight of our trip to New York, and the memory will stay with us for a long time!
Thank you OnLocation Tours! |

| Although some of the movie references were a bit obscure, it was a fun tour with the added benefit of seeing Tribecca and Soho, places we would never have gone to but for the tour. Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that the late morning tour included a pizza stop and a clean, luxury bus equipped with a restroom. Unless they are really plugged into current movies and TV shows, this is not a tour for the elderly. Plenty of opportunities for photos - we went with a group of out of town college kids and they loved it. |

| We really enjoyed our tour. Our guide was very enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. It was a good way for us and our children (even though they had not heard of some of the films) to see some of new york in a fun, enjoyable way. |

| This is a great way of seeing New York as you could never do on foot. We did this on our first full day so it was a good overview of Manhattan and the coach was very comfortable.
Our guide, Kim, was brilliant. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and did a mean rendition of Smelly Cat! Law and Order is my favorite program and now I've seen the famous steps.
It was also nice to be directed to a food stop on a tour which wasn't a rip off - it was perfectly good pizza and a drink for only $4 and they were filming there too..
We would definitely recommend to other visitors. |

| Tour guide was funny, enthuastic and well known. Showed places of Spiderman, Crocodile Dundee, 13 to 30 overnight, etc. Walked around and there was a lunch break at "Men in Black" pizza place. Also a movie shot was going on where we see the trucks + equipment.
They showed later places of Enchanted and Friends, but those shows are not very common in Germany, so we didn't recognize that.
Nice was that the movie scenes were showed onboard.
Sad was that they didn't show any "Sex and the city" hot spot -> they want that you book "Sex and the city" tour to earn more money.
Though, in summary, it was a great value and fun for the money and we recommend it to everyone.... |

| Kimberly was our guide and she was enthusiastic as well as paying good attention to each person on the tour. She pointed out hundreds of spots that involved celebrites. We had not seen a lot of the movies mentioned but many had.
We are from Winnipeg, Manitoba and noticed that the bus we were on was built here. The driver said it was new and he liked it a lot. |

| Brian was a fantastic tour guide, funny and knowlegable. It was great to see more of the city while travelling to the TV/Movie destinations. Bus driver was not great, made a turn to "avoid traffic", making us miss a photo op of Grace's studio from Will and Grace. Was dissapointed that one of the stops was not Carrie's appartment from Sex and the City. I understand this company runs both tours and wants to sell the SATC tour, but I'd still go on that one even after seeing just the appartment this time around! Overall the tour was a great experience, worth every pennny and would highly reccommend to anyone that's a TV/Movie buff or just wanting to see the city. |

| We got to see parts of the City that we would otherwise not get to. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and fun and flexible enough to adapt to circumstances beyond her control (no bus with video) and specific customer requests. Everyone enjoyed it, and I do plan to go back and try out other tours. |

Good sites, tough due to city traffic

| Our guide, Brian, tried to work around all of the parade routes, but this caused a delay in the trip. We did enjoy his commentary though. |
