| Great tour - nice to see the less touristy bits of New York. Also a really varied bunch of films and TV shows referenced. Tour guide (Brian) was great - really funny and engaging. |

Fun with friends

| My friends and I enjoyed this tour. It was fun and a nice rest for our aching feet. Our guide Kimberly was great and threw out TV/Movie trivia questions in between tour spots! The stop at "Rice to Riches" for rice pudding was fun and a nice snack. We can't wait for our next trip to NY so we can go on the "SATC tour" (as our tour guide called it to keep with the TV/Movie tour's PG rating). |

| this was an excellent way to get to see manhattan and all the surrounding areas that you would never go into if you just had a couple days there. also learned about many different places. the only thing i would like to h ave heard more of was more recent movies that had been filmed rather than old ones, since i am from the younger generation and have not heard or seen many of the movies talkd about. other than that the tour was great and the guide was very enthusiastic, entertaining, and informative! i would definitely reccomend anyone to take this tour! |

| This was a great tour and as well as being informative in the tv and movie area, it also showed a great deal of new york, particularly places you wouldn't normally see.
Jessica the tour guide was wonderful;
seeing it is such an ongoing part of the city , a little more on the law and order francise would be good |

| During my week-long vacation in New York, this was one of the very best times I had. The tour guide, Roseanne, is knowledgeable and passionate about her native city of New York and the subject of movie and TV production. She is a great speaker and knows how to engage an audience. Embodying all the qualities one would want in a tour guide--smart, funny, vivacious, articulate--she was a total delight. And the tour itself works on a couple of levels. For movie and TV buffs, it is a fascinating, behind-the-scenes look at how New York locales have been utilized in entertainment. But it also works as a great tour of the city itself. I have been to New York before, but I saw places on the tour that I had never visited before. It was a fun, relaxed way to see parts of the city I would never have ventured to on my own. I am so glad that I saw the brochure in my hotel and decided to take the tour. I cannot recomment it highly enough. And Roseanne should be commended for making this such a fun and memorable experience. |

| I took a school group of 31 teenagers from Scotland on this tour at the beginning of February 2007. It was a very cold morning so a good time to be on the bus. The tour guide was great, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The tour provided a good way to let students get a tour of neighbourhoods they might otherwise not see as well as feeding their enthusiasm for the movies. I suspect it could have been a little shorter as the students enthusiasm was beginning to wane in the last half hour, but other wise good. My only disappointment was that having arrived the required 15 mins early, the bus was then 20minutes late and we were frozen by the time got on board!
Sufficiently impressed to recommend it and I plan the take the Sex in the City Tour when I go back to the city with my husband in April. |

| We all loved the tour! It brought us to parts of Manhattan that we wouldn't of had time to see otherwise. We also loved having the movie/tv show clips played on the bus while we were travelling through the city. |
