| This onlocation tour was really fun, with loads of interesting information on tv and movies in New York. There could have been more sites to stop at and get pictures, but appreciate that you wouldn't want the tour to be too long. It allows you see to so much of New York city and familiar sights from the tv and movies. Highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys the big screen! |

Too much focus on "Friends"

| Not exactly as expected. Tour focused too much on shows like "Friends," not enough on movies, and friends isn't even shot in NYC. Could have done without the stop for rice pudding!

| My friend and I went on the TV & Film tour during our 1st visit to New York. It was one of the best parts of our trip. I would definitely recommend it and would love to do the central park walking tour on my next visit.
Thank you. |

| I have been living in Manhattan for 3 years. We had family in from out of town and they were very interested in seeing the sites where some of their favorite movies and shows had been filmed. Well I had just as much fun as my brother and niece did!
The tour guide was very good and knowlegable. And also gave us some "inside" information but have been sworn to secrecy :)
I would recommend this tour!

| We very much enjoyed it. Time passed very quickly and the guide was excellent. The choice of locations was varied and interesting and nothing was boring. Personally, I am not enough of a movie buff to have appreciated quite a lot of the locations but I still enjoyed seeing them. Getting off the coach at intervals was sensible and the cookie was an inspired gift as we went through lunch time! Would definitely do it again and many thanks to Kimberley Toddle.
P.S. I think some of the locations were of considerable architectual interest - it would have been great to be given a date of building or the name of the architect.

| We enjoyed the TV and movie site tour. I was with my 11 year old daughter and both of us enjoyed it. Kimberly did an excellent job keeping the tour moving along and adding fun facts about the TV and movie industry. The stop at Rice to Riches for rice pudding was awesome. |

| My niece and I had a great time on our NY Movie and TV tour! Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable, and knew how to keep us interested in what we were seeing. Showing the film clips that correspond to the site was a nice touch.
Thanks for the black and white cookie! |

| We both had fun seeing the television establishing shots and some of the movies. Why on Earth were there so many plugs for the movie Hitch? That movie was god awful! I don't know why we had to stop at that rice pudding store that was in the movie. It was pretty pointless and why were so many locations pointed out for that movie, surely there were more things to see... I would have liked to have seen some other will and grace and seinfeld locations. Going to other neighbourhoods was neat too. I really liked seeing the friends building and cosby. It is a really awesome way to see the city other than a generic city bus tour, that is if you like tv. So all in all worth the trip, you get a free cookie, see some good stuff, nice tour of city, if you don't mind the confusing and constant "Hitch" references peppering the tour. |

| My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We saw sights from Friends, Sex and the City, Will and Grace, Seinfeld, he Cosby show, Hitch, Superman, Men in Black, Ghostbusters, the Godfather, Regarding Henry, Two Weeks Notice, Harry Met Sally, One Fine Day and more. We loved that they show you video clips on the bus as you are seeing the real site out the window. There are a few stops, too, where you can get out for pictures. Out tour guide was an expert on every movie and show and truly enjoyed her role as guide. She even pointed out celebrity homes along the way. The only two drawbacks we encountered were the tour guide showing up late, making the tour leave a little late and the fact that the tour only goes from Midtown to Downtown. There was plenty to see in that area, but we had hoped it would go to the Upper West Side to show sites from You've Got Mail and Seinfeld. Other than that, we were very pleased. |
