| We arrived in NYC on the red eye on a hot, muggy Sunday and met the bus in Times Square (a little grouchy and tired). The minute we got on the bus our moods lightened - it was clean, cool and comfortable. The guide was fun but not annoying, the driver was efficient and safe. We never expected to see so much of the city, and it was a great way to orient ourselves, as well as enjoy all the TV and Movie sites. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. |

| We found the tour to be most interesting - Brian was an excellent and entertaining tour guide.
The only part of the tour I was not crazy about was the area around Minetta St.
I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone visiting NY - it is also a great way to see the city |

| We thoroughly enjoyed the tour ... so much, in fact, I would say this was one of the top highlights of our trip. Brian was awesome, incorporating humor with explanations of the various stops on the tour. The bus driver drove with care and is a heck of a parrallel parker! I have already recommended the tour to several friends and coworkers. |

| This tour is well thought out and goes to places you won't see on any other tour (how many tours go to the meat packing district?)
The concept of pairing the movie clips with the view outside is a joy to behold. I even learned about how different US shows play in other countries.
The guide we had obviously knew her stuff.
My only complaint is not enough. The guide kept saying "We can't show you everything". I think there should be a sequel tour. For those of us who have seen the first, it would be more :) and it could stand alone as a tour. |

| This was a very informative tour, not only from a TV/movie standpoint. It's a great way to see parts of Manhattan during the day. Our tour guide, Roseanne, was very knowledgeable and had a quick answer to any questions the passengers had about specific shows, locations, etc. |

| It was an entertaining ride. The lenght was good. Maybe it was possible to make more stops, because somethings were only to watch from one side of the bus. |

| The tour was a good way to see New York. It was interesting and informational. My kids were a little bored because they did not recognize most of the sights but it is fun for adults. |

| I travel alot and have taken tours in many major citites throughout the US and abroad. Brian is the best tour guide ever. He is a great example of New York at its best. He was friendly, full of information, fun and funny. He went out of his way to make sure he was answering everyone's questions. He has a great personality.
There was a mother and daughter from Ireland on our tour. They were constantly complaining. Brain was very courteous and patient with them. Truth be told, I would not have been as nice as he was with them. They were just rude. Brian was a true professional.
I would highly recommend this tour and would tell others to ask for Brian. They will have a great time and learn so much. |
