| Tour provided many facts and examples with video clips. It would have been helpful to have a brouchure or handout to retain all the locations we visited. Was very hard to remember them all.
Enjoyed the visit to "Men in Black" Pizza shop....very good lunch and entertaining. |

| The tour was incredible, very well organized and gave us the opportunity to discover the New York as its shown on TV and cinema. The tour guide was excellent, friendly and helpful. All in all, it was one of the best things in our trip to NYC and I strongly recommend this tour to anyone! |

| The tour is a lot of fun and you get to see a lot of locations that you would never find otherwise. Our tour guide was Gary and he was really funny and made it a great trip. I am from NY and my girlfriend was on her first trip there and both of us found it to be a lot of fun so it is great for locals and tourists alike! |

| We enjoyed our guide, Gary, very much. He made the 3.5 hours fly by! With his humor, trivia and pleasant personality he helped to make this an enjoyable activity for myself, my 2 sisters, daughters and nieces. It was a great way to see all different sections of the city and find out locations of movie and t.v shots. We all enjoyed ourselves! |

| For my teen, it was an interesting way to see some of New York.
BUT
We didn't go north of Central Park.
Several sites were no more than estab. shots. Little / none of the show was filmed there.
Lots of chatter about what's filming maybe somewhere.
No history of the city.
I enjoyed the east village -- hadn't seen that before.
Over all it was okay. |

For Die Hard TV and Movie Fans

| There were advantages and disadvantages to the tour. I do watch a lot of tv and movies so I was interested in seeing where some of them took place. However, I wasn't familiar with the more recent tv and movies so I couldn't appreciate all of the locations. I think you would have to be a die hard fan of tv and movies, old and new to completely appreciate the tour. My husband and I did appreciate being able to sit on the bus and be off of our feet for a couple of hours because we'd been walking most of the time throughout our week long stay in New York. So it is a nice opportunity to relax for awhile and still see New York. We were able to get a quick tour of spots in New York we may not get to during our stay. However, if you do have time and the energy, it is probably better to get out and walk the streets. The view is much better. We only hopped off the bus a couple of times during the tour so that was a drawback. Our tour guide was Kimberly and she is energetic and enthusiastic and a die hard tv and movie fan herself. Our group wasn't into the sing along as much as Kimberly tried to get us to sing.
I would recommend the tour for die hard fans who have a short amount of vacation time that want a preview of favorite tv and movie spots.Otherwise, get out and hoof it or find where your favorite spots are and just get to that location on your own. |

| I have had the pleasure of doing the TV & Movie Tour twice before, once with my mother and once with my best friend. When my sister came up to the city to visit, I thought she would really enjoy the TV & Movie Tour- and since I really enjoyed the past two times, I wouldn't mind going again. However, the tour was very different than the last time. One of the most memorable parts (and what I was looking forward to the most) of the 3 hour tour was going up Central Park West and looking at celebrity homes. This time we never went above Columbus Circle.
Normally I wouldn't mind being dropped off on Madison Ave. once the tour ends; however, since I took the tour on St. Patrick's Day, we were dropped off right in the middle of the parade. I live on 45th St., but since 5th Ave. was blocked off, I was required to walk far out of my way just to turn around and go back downtown.
Overall, the experience was semi-enjoyable for me, but my sister seemed to enjoy her first time around. |
