20 and 23 year old girls from Australia looking for a different tour of NYC

The idea behind the tour was a good one and the stop off points throughout were chosen carefully. However unfortunately it was not as good as what we had hoped (and expected after being very satisfied with the Manhattan TV and Movie Tour, conducted by the same company). The guide was quite disorganised and initially left the video, showing different scenes from the show that were relevant to particular places we would pass, running so we weren't sure whether to listen to her and look out the window or to watch the screen in front of us. Eventually she realised it was still playing and stopped it but there were then problems with getting it going at all again. Finally the bus driver managed to resurrect the problem and the tape was started at the very beginning again. This was irritating as in addition to watching the same footage again. when we finally saw the scenes for places we were passing, we had already passed them over half an hour ago so they were no longer relevant. We also felt that the guide spoke a little too much about herself rather than using the time more wisely to catch up on the clips we had missed. This led to us not seeing all of the clips for the places we passed before we finished the tour. I realise that this would be a somewhat challenging thing to do but given that our guide on the Manhattan Tv and Movie Tour had managed, we thought the same would have happened on this tour. Overall, I think the idea of the tour with the clips and the stop off points is a good one but the guides should perhaps become more experienced with the equipment they are using and time management for the tour in order for people to get the most out of it.

Overall I enjoyed the tour, it would have been a bit better to extend the time allowed at certain venues, but the guide was informative & fun.

An extremely knowledgable and enjoyable guide to Manhattan according to the Sex and the City girls. Gives you an insight into neighbourhoods that other tours miss. Highly recommended for fans of the show.

mix of city dwellers and international tourists

The tour guide was dressed in an extremely non-professional way and conducted herself non-professionally. She did not know to refer to the left/right of the people on the tour and rather saw things only from her view. I thought I would learn about city sites from the show but rather the guide tried to quiz us on unknown details of the show and talk gossip rather than facts- no one was interested in this "game," yet she continued as if oblivious to the passengers. She made comments that were not funny and were simply distasteful comments, and she spoke in a completely unecessarily rude way about some of the city businesses. This was dissapointing, esepcially because many people on the tour were from other countries and this tour would only reinforce negative stereotypes about this city based on how unprofessionally the guide presented herself and based on how disrespectfully she spoke of city businesses. This was all a real turn off and surprisingly dissapointing. I have traveled within the U.S and internationally and I have taken many fine tours around the world- I am sad to say this was not one of them. I do not reccommend this tour or any with this company as it does a dissevice to our fine city of New York.

We considered ourselves Sex and the City experts before the tour but we still learned so much!! We could easily relate to everything our wonderful tour guide was telling us. She was very friendly and helpful. We really liked that we could get off at certain spots especially Carrie's stoop. We also really enjoyed the cup cakes! One of the best activities we did in New York

Out of town couple, weekend getaway, something different w/ a theme.
Mon, Feb 16, 04   3:00 PM Anonymous Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
The concept is great (theme based, popular show, etc.). However, the tour needs better time management. We spent too much time trying to coordinate picture taking at Carrie's apt., which skewed things and allowed only 10 minutes at subsequent stops (notably ~7 minutes at the bar to drink a Cosmopolitan). Maybe organizing picture taking teams before disembarking would help. We still enjoyed the tour. But, there is a lot of room for improvement.

Having never seen an episode from the Sopranos I still enjoyed the tour very much. My two friends from England loved it (die hard Sopranos fans). I am now visiting Blockbuster to catch up, I'm half way through the first season! John Marsden NJ.

I was unable to make the tour as I had to fly back to Australia and the staff were very unhelpful in trying to organise a private tour. Consequently, I lost my money for the tour. Thus I would not recommend your company to anyone.

I thought it was very informative and interesting to see and hear some of the behind scenes. I f you are a Sopranos fan how could you not want to participate in this experience! The bus was extremly comfortable-and we can not say enough great things about our tour guide he was fantastic! Of course the trip to Satin Dolls/Bada Bada Bing club was a highlight for me as I thought it was a staged thing-not a real place-all of it was great!

It was lots of fun and we're still spouting trivia that we picked up from our tour guide. The bus was clean and comfortable and the driver was excellent. The tour guide was personable and engaging. The sights were lots of fun. Our favorite was the Friends apartment building, but there was lots to see.

We had alot of fun on the tour. Not only did we get to see all of the Sex and the City locations, but we were able to get a nice bus tour of New York City! My wife was very happy with this Valentine's Day present.

the tour itself covered good spots but the video clips were shown well after driving past the location. i feel video clips should be showen before arriving at the location and just after tour guide has given her speech.
