Rating: 4 Great tour for TV and movie buffs
  Tue, Jan 22  11:00 AM jmlacy Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
  I enjoyed the tour because of the tour leader's knowledge of movies and his first-hand knowledge of New York City. Combined with his personal stories of life in NYC, his TV and movie knowledge made this a great tour.

  We all really enjoyed the tour. Our group ranged in age from 13 to 65 and each of us enjoyed the tour and locations. The cookies were an extra special touch as well as the comedy by our guide. The "insider" information Gary (guide) provided made us feel special. THANKS
Rating: 4 Really good a must see

  We had Gary as our guide and he was informative and entertaining, he really made the tour worthwhile. I found it really interesting to see all the different places where different movies etc where made and would definitely recommend this tour (especially towards the end of the holiday as it was nice to finally sit down.) Went on other tours of New York and would say I got more out of this tour than any other.

  We went on the Movie Tour around NYC. Its was a highly enjoyable tour and the tour guide (Gavin) was very knowledgable and entertaining.

  Wir haben die Tour über das Internet gebucht. Alles hat Prima geklappt. Unsere Tourführerin hat sehr viele Informationen für uns bereit gehalten. Dabei war sie extrem witzig und es hat Spaß gemacht ihr zu lauschen. Kleinere Fahrzeiten ohne (TV relevante) Sehenswürdigkeiten, hat sie mit kleinen TV Quizen gestaltet. Natürlich gab es auch Preise für richtige Antworten. Die angefahrenen Sehenswürdigkeiten waren gut gewählt und behandelten fast ausschließlich Filme und Serien, die auch bei uns in Deutschland liefen bzw. laufen. Obwohl wir keine deutschsprachige Tour gebucht hatten, konnte man mit soliden Englischkenntnissen der Tour gut folgen. Mein Fazit: IMMER WIEDER GERNE! DIE TOUR WAR JEDEN DOLLAR WERT! Bernd Liebscher

  The tour was very fun and informative. I would have liked to have gotten out of the bus a couple more times than we did, but other than that, it was great and I would definitely recommend it. I would, however, note that the tour has partnered with NBC Studios to give you both for $40. Unfortunately, we weren't told in advance and ended up paying the $38 for the TV/Movie Tour PLUS $18.50 for the NBC Studio Tour. Also, the NBC Studio Tour is a bit of a rip-off unless you're getting it practically for free through this combo offer.
Rating: 5 Great Tour, very interesting

  Liked the fact that we saw many different neighborhoods around Manhattan. Also, liked seeing the clips as we drove by the location. Host was very knowledgeable, frendly and enthusiastic.
Rating: 5 This tour has great family appeal & is well-paced!

  I was pleasantly surprised to see how this tour can appeal do different ages and different ideas on what makes a city tour cool and interesting. You can see where I am heading with this....what 3+ hour activity can appeal to... a. a parent with her 9 year old son, who, yes, likes Spiderman but hates to walk in NYC (even though he resides in NYC), and ... b. his sixteen year old cousin from Australia who had ONLY 4 days in NYC and has arrived with great expectation to "do up the town". c. it's wintertime (around Jan. 19th) and the beach is not an option, nor is 3 hours in a museum an option (remember, little legs tire easily). What did I know? I've only lived in NYC for 22 years and have NEVER taken a movie site location tour in my life! There was alot of "a little somethings" for everyone. Our tour guide was really terrific - very upbeat and friendly. She had a great sense of humor and she had an amazing grasp for information and details. She shared many interesting details not only about NYC film scenes and movie stars, but also about the history of NYC locations and behind-scenes movie shoot details. I love NYC architecture and simply enjoyed looking out and up, at it all! - the tour is a wonderful way to see the city, and save your energy. It would have taken several days to make it to all the locations via subway and on foot...so the tour, is also a real time saver if you're short on time as a visiting tourist. As for my 9 year old: Naturally, any site having to do with "Spiderman" films, grabbed his attention. The presentation was kid friendly, and quite respectful of omitting certain references to adult words (acceptable to adults, but not for children), yet she was able to deliver the jist of things.. Little legs were not exhausted by 4 short excursions to on-site walking tours, just enough for a nine year old who resorted to his PSP in moments of rest from the presentation. The tour guide's riddles and rewards were also a great way to span the generations....as everyone hoped to win a lollipop or black and white cookie! Very smart move! As for my 16 year old neice, visiting NYC (for the first time) from Sidney, Australia: This was, in large part, the BIG BONANZA! Not only coming to see NYC for the first time ever, but to also see (and relate to) movie scene locations and an abundance of interesting movie trivia. Her camera was clicking and you should have seen the look of jaw-dropping awe and wonder! Priceless! I was happy, she was happy (that was my main goal) and my son...you could say, he throughly enjoyed trading a school day time with his cousin and a tour. He would highly reccomend it! Thanks again to the tour guide. I forget her name, but she was fabulous and carried the day. Please tell her that! Thanks!

  Lovely Tour, also a great opportunity to see a lot of New York. Recommended for first time visitors. The only downside to the tour is that mostly old films and tv series are used in the tours.
Rating: 3 Interesting but not amazing

  The tour has been very funny, in part because the guide was very very pleasant and tried to do her best for us. About the tour, I can say that we saw a lot of locations that were part of a film, but many of them were not very known by us nor very interesting. But in general, the tour has been ok, because has allowed us to see the city through another point of view.
