| I'll begin by saying that the tour was very enjoyable. The tour guide, Gary, was wonderful. He really made the tour!!!! I suppose I thought the stops on the tour would be a little more up to date. It seems to me that sitting on the Cosby steps and posing in front of the ghostbuster fire house could have been done for 15 or more years. There needs to be a little change. I will recommend this tour but not as heartily as I have the Greenwich Village Cultural and Food Tour. I have singlehandedly sent 15 people on that tour.
My only complaint is that the tour seemed dated. The leader, the interaction of the guests and the driver were all topnotch. |

| Enjoyable day even for locals. Our guide seemed to know everything about NYC movie and TV locations. She had our attention right from the beginning and she kept the information coming with enthusiasm for 3.5 hrs. The pizza was great. |

| I found the tour guide very informative and the trip was interesting. I plan to go on the Sex and the City and Gossip Girl tours in the future. |

Good, but outdated..

| The tour was good, but focused on a few select shows (Ghost-busters, Gossip Girl, and 30 Rock) but misses the charm of the Sex and the City tour where key relational moments can be attached to locations. For the older shows an intro description of what is going to be covered would be nice. Also with Wall Street and Wall Street II on the horizons, the tour should definitely drive down Wall and give some information about the firms some of the current M&A drama etc.
The Host was good, but not as passionate as the S&TC tour guide. And the Concierge from FAO Schwartz never came over.
On some good notes, the Black and White cookies are really good, and the Friends/Cosby Show pieces were really well recieved by the whole group. Maybe a coffee below the Friends apartment would be more relevant than Pizza at the Men In Black cafe.
Also the MIB cafe has a $10 VISA minimum (which is actually illegal) and caused one of the passengers sitting next to me to have an awkward "... but I don't have cash." moment, which needless to say isn't the best way to see NYC. |

| Our tour guide [Brian] was just the best. He had us laughing from the moment we checked in. By the end of the tour we were in tears laughing. His knowledge of films and locations and his way of presenting the information to us was the perfect blend. I learned a lot about the city I never knew, nor did I expect to learn on this tour. He kept it exciting and entertaining. Never boring! Well worth the money. When we go back we will be doing some of the other tours offered. Hope the other tour guides are as good as Brian was. He definitely gave us some memories we can laugh about for years to come. |
