| Our guide, Roseanne, was extremely helpful, organized and energetic. Her obvious love of the subject and the city really made the tour. It's a fun way to spend 3 1/2 hours. |

| I took the tour with a NYC local and we both loved it. There's something to see and learn even if you're from the city. We had a really knowledgeable and funny tour guide (Roseanne) who was willing to take pictures and answer questions the whole time. It was just a really nice afternoon and a very pleasant tour experience. |

| The tour guide really knew her stuff, and she made the trip fun at the same time.
When you go to new york there is lots and lots of walking involved so it was nice being driven around in a nice bus for a change.
you cover a lot of areas on the trip so you get a real feel for the city.
well recomended

| I enjoy TV and Movies. So I enjoy seeing where they are made. Even though I was not a big fan of some of the shows I still enjoyed this tour. Plus it got me off my feet for a few hours to which were sore! The tour guide was nice as well. |

| We really enjoyed the tour. It was a lot of fun...just towards the end I started to wish it would end so we decided to break off from the tour 30 mins early. The time of day the tour was held (11am-2:30pm) made it difficult to coordinate lunch so we were starving but full of sugar from cookies given on the tour...bad combo. One additional suggestion would be to coordinate the clips shown on the bus more with the time of seeing the sights. We ended up doing lots of catching up on the clips after we had long past the sights they were coordinated with. I went on the Sex and the City tour a while back and it was a lot more coordinated/organized when they showed the clips which made it really cool and made it flow more. Also, I would find a better substitute for the rice pudding place the tour visits. It was too crowded for everyone to get pudding and not a very interesting spot anyways...plus related to a C grade "renter" movie. But I don't want to sound like I didn't enjoy it...our tour guide was awesome and funny.... we had a lot of fun. Thanks so much!! Plus we saw Ethan Hawke walking on the street..cool! |

| I am from New Zealand but am a citizen of the USA and have been to New York a few times. I have promised myself a tour of the TV and Film locations for a while and finally did it. I was not disappointed and Brian our guide was very upbeat and made you love his New York.
I would love to do a couple more and my friend who was with me is a Travel Agent and sometimes hard to please, and was very impressed also.
Thanks, keep up the good work.

| This was a great tour. We throughly enjoyed seeing all of the locations for the shows we enjoy watching and learning the inside tips of the filming.The black and white cookie was a great treat and the "icing" on the total tour was seeing Ethan Hawk.The Rice to Riches stop was delicious. Brian was an amazing tour guide whose information made thetour interesting, fun and exciting. |

| In general the tour was interesting to me and I really like it when we actually had the oppurtunity to get off the bus and see the locations. It is a lot more personal and a lot clearer than when you pass by something that is being pointed out while truck or other obstacle gets in the way.
The best part of the trip was finding out about the rice pudding location that I would have never knew about otherwise.
I work not far from the Cosby house and It was nice to see the famous areas in our neighborhood. I was suprised that they stop in front of the little park that Stuart little 2 was filmed in and didn't mention it. I had my nieces with me who are both teenagers they were okay doing the tour but couldn't relate to the things that flew buy as they passed them and then saw some scene at a later point. I think they also were hoping to see more things they could relate to.
I am glad I did the tour but I am not sure if i would recommend it to my friends.
The tour guide and bus driver where great i just think I was expecting a little more hands on pieces. |
