| My daughter & I decided to have a girls weekend in NY. She is 22 yrs old & we took this tour with Kimberly as our tour guide. Fun from beginning to end. I really don't know how they can improve. We really had a blast. We covered alot of ground & it was so exciting to see places in NY that we have seen on TV for years. Kimberly was always encouraging us to take pictures & actually took our cameras & took them for us so we could be in them. It was a great tour & I would highly recommend it to all age groups!! |

| The tour was really fun. We got to see so much of New York. If you are a big TV & Movie fan, this tour is for you! The stops at the Cosby steps, Will Smith's apartment from I am Legend, the delicious pizza from Ben's (Men & Black), and many other stops/sights are really worth it. The bus is great, and the clips really help you remember all the sights from the movies/shows as you go by them. Kimberly was a great tour guide! Thanks for the free Seinfeld cookies! |

| The tour guide (Brian Taylor) was great and he really made the tour enjoyable. We especially liked his enthusiasm and his willingness to go the extra mile to to accommodate the tour guests - for example, when he saw yellow tags posted for filming events, he stopped to find out what was filming so that we could come back to watch. That was very nice. He was also very knowledgeable about the industry and was a wealth of information.
The incorporation of DVD clips into the tour was very helpful in matching up the unreal with the real. We also enjoyed the ability to get off the bus to see some of the sights. |

| Our tour guide was fantastic, but I wish that we were able to get off the bus more. I would have also liked to have gone by some Project Runway spots (Atlas and Parson school for design) as well as seen some spots on foot. I know it's tough with a large group, but still. |

| We had a ball, we didn't know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised just how much information our host knew and she made it really interesting. I would recommend to anyone as it was a great way to see New York as well. |

| This tour had an excellent schedule planned and we were very excited about it. Having done a similar tour in San Fran recently we did have high expectations but unfortunately this was a little disappointing.
Couple of problems:
1. Too many things too see - the bus was so big and there were so many movie sites to see you barely could see them as you looked left and right as the bus drove past them.
2. Not one reference to Sex and the City (of course they want you to buy that tour too) which was odd.
I would recommend the company chooses about 50% of the items it wants to cover and spends a few minutes on each one rather than trying to cram in scores of movie/tv locations as you zoom past in your massive bus so you don't see them anyway. Even if they can't let you off the bus for all of them - they could go a little slower so you can at least see what they are pointing too.
I note that the building for Grace Adler designs (Will & Grace) was a key highlight and I barely had time to turn my camera on before it zoomed past! Surely this is one to stop at?!
Overall was OK but better organisation on the part of the tour company could make it really great. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable though which was a positive. |

| We had a great time on our tv and movie site tour. Everyone was very friendly, the bus was nice, and our tour guide Kimberly was awesome. We had a great time and learned a lot about New York as well as seeing some of our favorite tv and movie spots. Glad we did it! |

| We were blown away by the tour and our tour guide, she was awesome..she was so entertaining and knew just about everything about New York and the movies and tv shows from here..She was a real people person who just made the tour more fantastic that it already was.. I have already recommeded it to next years bus trip to the city! I was also very impressed with how nice and clean the bus was and the friendliness of the driver.. Stopping for a piece of pizza was a nice surprise. |
