| We are a couple from Australia and about two years ago really enjoyed the movie/tv tours in Boston and San Francisco, so we were really looking forward to the new york one. I understand there is more people in NY and more visitors but they use a smaller van in the other cities which gives passengers a much better view out the window. It also makes the tour more personal - it was a bit hard to ask questions as you only had a few minutes when getting on/off bus between stops to ask.
It also would have been good to have been given the hand out at the start so you could prepare for what you are going to see - somethings go past too quickly to realise what you have seen.
Our tour guide was great though - Brian. Very informative and funny adn a great crowd controller. A bit annoyed though that we had to sit and wait in the bus for a group that was late arriving - even though they were aussies! |

| Gary was a great tour guide and made the tour very enjoyable. Even my teenage son who "is above participating" ended up answering trivia questions. A lot of fun! I especially enjoyed seeing the different areas of Manhattan and being able to not just drive by, but get off of the bus, walk around for a few minutes and take pictures. And the pizza was great and a welcome repast. Highly recommend it! |

| Brian kept the group entertained throughout the tour. My wife and I enjoyed our time and believe the tour to be a good way to see the city. We would recomment the tour to tourists that want to see a glimpse of what the city has to offer. |

| I grew up in NY but have since moved away. I was visiting NY with my daughter and we were looking for something different to do since we've seen just about everything there is to see in NY so this was something very different and enjoyable. Also, really enjoyed our tour guide, Kimberly She was very enthusiastic and entertaining and she definitely helped make the tour a lot more fun. |

| My husband and I really enjoyed the tour - our guide was informative and entertaining. We were amazed at how much of what we see on TV and in the movies has been filmed in New York. |

| We don't normally go for bus tours but this one was great fun and perfect for my 13 year old who loves movies and TV. The movie clips and the tour guide's genuine enthusiasm for the subject made it all the more interesting. Highly recommended for a frigid day in the city. |

| My group had a great time on our tour. Our tour guide really knew a lot about the city itself and pointed out many cool things. She also rattled off many different movie and TV facts with great enthusiasm and ease. Only thing I'd change is the diversity in movies. Way too many Spiderman 3 references in the span of 3 hours - I don't know anyone that cares that much about that movie. Based on all the TV and movies that have been filmed in the city, I think we could have experienced some more variety in comments about movies and the movie clips themselves. I'd recommend this tour to a movie lover for sure and to anyone who wants a great tour of New York City itself. Added bonus: the buses are clean and comfy! |

| The tour was an interesting way to see the usual sights such as Central Park and other New York attractions. The tour guide was humorous and kept the time going quickly. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys the movies and wants a different tour than the usual. Plenty of time given at some sights for photos. |
