| I really enjoyed this tour, Brian was very informative and knew alot of fun detailes about everywhere in NYC which made the tour very entertaining. The tour showed a wide variety of places where shows and movies have been filmed in the city that everyone could find something they would like on this tour. Very fun!

| Brian was fantastic. He was very entertaining, kept your attention despite the mess that was happening back at the office. He had to keep answering his phone because he was not told of a street fair happening and and anoth little hiccup. But, he was smooth and let us know what was going on :).........Brian pointed out things in the city that I could never enjoyed without his direction. Not only are the sites interesting to see, they also give a better geographic idea of the city. The rest of the day, after the tour, my BF and I spent more time between 9th and 14th and MacDougal Streets, how very charming..........I loved it, 5 stars................although the only thing that I personally did not enjoy, and this is a personal preference is the stop at the Bill Cosby brownstone.......What an old, old show. I think you can do better than that and find a more current stop. Other than that suggestion. FANTASTIC....I did the Sex in the City tour last year, and am already looking forward to taking another tour next year.....not sure which one though??? HHUUMM?? Any suggestions? Thanks for a great time. Please tell Brian he is doing a great job and we hope he lands a leading role in TV or film......LOL......Sincerely, Dana and Don |

| it was a very good tour, the tour guide was very well spoken, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It was very detailed, well worth the money. I liked how they had clips of all the movie and tv sites we visited. |

| Besides just the movie sites, we got to see a lot of New York just by driving around in the bus. A little bit to long at the Huckstable house but other than that, we would recommend this tour. |

| I was under the impression that we actually saw where shows were filmed not just the outside of buildings but, with Gary as our tour guide you couldn't help but enjoy yourself. I wil now know to make sure and read carefully or call and order tickets so you can ask questions. If all your guides make sure everyone is having a good time and to feel free to ask questions I would recommend it. Thanks Donna |

| The tour guide was terrific and knowledgable... and fun! I would have preferred to know more about movie sets that were Oscar winners rather than ones that included "where Adam Sandler urinated..." Too much emphasis on Spiderman and B-movies; not enough on the great movies of all time. Overall, however, it was entertaining and a good way to see some of the city. |

| Being a big Will & Grace fan, we asked specifically if this tour covered any of the 'Establishing' shots from the 8 years that this series ran for. We were told it would, so we booked.
In 3.5 hrs we were shown only 1 place that appeared in the series and the bus drove straight by, no slowing down even, which left us with no chance to take a photo. The bus does stop however for other TV series and films, which was interesting. We found this tour to be dominated by 'Seinfeld' which was spoke about throughout, despite it having its own tour!!
Will & Grace was a huge export for the USA so give it some credit and include it in your tour for when we come to NYC next.
Despite all this...we still enjoyed what we did see on this tour but it did leave us feeling a little cheated of our time in such a wonderful city with so much to see and do.

| I really enjoyed this tour, although I expected other recent movie sites to be visited. For me, the highlight of the tour was visiting the Friends building. A very pleasant surprise was visiting Rice to Riches, a place that was used in the movie Hitch, where they make delicious rice pudding. The tour guide really knew what he was talking about, and I liked to hear about filming techniques, bloopers, and other secrets that we usually are not aware when we watch movies and tv shows. |
