The tour was really good and the guide was really knowledgable. Although there are a few times where you get off the bus to take photos, most sights are seen while driving past, so if your main goal was to take photos I wouldn't recommend it. That aside it is still a really good tour! |

My 17 year old daughter and I took this tour on a rainy New Year's Day in NYC. The rain meant it was difficult to snap pictures from the bus as it was dark and there were raindrops on the windows. We were able to get out of the bus on a number of occasions and take pictures at those points. The benefit of the holiday meant that traffic was light and we could get around the City without traffic delays.
The tour was a great way of seeing parts of the City as well as spots featured in various movies/TV shows. Although I enjoyed it, I think my daughter probably appreciated it more than I did as she is more up to date with current movies/TV programs. A number of fllm clips are shown, usually when the bus is caught in traffic, so you get to see the location just visited in the various movies in which it has been used. I think this is a nice touch, but found the clips to be very brief. I would have preferred slightly more of the scene in each instance.
Well worth it especially if you are interested in movies/TV shows. |

thoroughly enjoyed this tour - an excellent tour-guide, thank you Rosanne, who was very informative on all things movie related, and her continual commentary of the surrounding locations was top-notch!!
the video-clips used during traffic were a great way of highlighting the locations as they were used in the movie or TV programme!!
the walk-abouts off the bus were great; standing across the street from the Friends' building was quite surreal!! and a definite must-do is the opportunity to try the rice pudding from Rice to Riches!!
we had such a good time on this tour that we plan to do another next time we come to New York, thank you!!! |

This tour was a highlight of my time in New York. We saw so much of the city and got to know lots of different districts. Roxanne ( I hope that is her name!) was fantastic. She knew the city inside out, kept everyone happy and organised and told us great information. Locations were well researched and appropriate, loved the DVD as well. I would recommend this to anyone. It was particularly great to do at the start of time in New York so you can go back to locations you enjoyed and brag to others about how much you have leant on the tour. I would have loved to see Carrie's apartment form Sex and the City but I realise that this is a seperate tour!
Thanks for a great experience |

Roseanne was a very informative and enthusuatic tour guide. Had a great trip around the city. Off the bus walks were nice for the reprieve from driving but most could have been seen from the bus. Favorite part of the trip. . the rice pudding shop. Should have stopped at the cupcake shop too! Thanks! |

the tour is good, but I would love to see more from recent movies. Some movies are really old and I don't know at all. Our tour guide Rosanne (hopefully I spell her name right...) is excellent and enthusiastic about movies. She knows a lot and takes care of everyone's need. |
