| Loved the studio movie tour at NBC. The movie tour was great for sight seeing and the guide was excellent. Would definetely recommend this tour combo to anyone wanting to see the NYC area. |

| We are a couple from London with a passion for movies and some TV series and we found the Manhattan TV & Movie Tour to be fascinating and very good fun. It was well paced and we liked the quiz element of it especially as this was very lighthearted. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, the bus ultra-modern and air-conditioned and the subjects covered totally fascinating. We would recommend it to everyone interested in New York as a city as well as the way it has been portrayed on screen, small and silver.
The NBC tour was also first class. The tour guides were funny but professional and the whole tour was done in such a way as to gain knowledgeable but not be bored at any point.
I wish we had this in London - a business idea anyone? |

| I went on the tour with my mother and we had a fabulous time! We are from Sioux City, Iowa, and this was our first trip to New York. The tour allowed us to see many of the different NY neighborhoods - which was nice. Bryan was very enthusiastic and a very good tour guide (give him a raise), and it was nice to get information from a New Yorker to tell us "how it is". The sites we saw were fun to see, and I'm sure there are a ton more that were outside the scope of the tour, but it was nice to get information on what happens behind the scenes of our recognizable TV shows and movies. Thanks for a great time! |

| I enjoyed seeing all of the sites. The tour bus was 15 minutes late and I was a little worried it would not show up. I was there with a group of friends and we all thought is was great. The NBC tour is fun and informative. The interns are great. |

| We enjoyed the Tour but expected much more . It was only an hour long, and our page guide was very informative. She did not tell us how the NBC logo came about or changed over the years to it's present format. We were told not to take pictures,
although on the Conan O'Brien set there were people below our seats, on the set ,taking pictures (Probably knew a stage hand !!) that was a double standard.

| I have to say, it was a pretty good tour, overall. I saw a LOT of things and learned a lot of things about shows I like that I probably wouldn't know otherwise. The NBC part of the tour was the best part, though. The tour guides were HILARIOUS! I think their names were Jaclyn and Steph... they were really really great. And seeing the studios of Conan O'Brien and Saturday Night Live was awesome. The 3 hour bus tour was good too. The tour guide Gary was pretty amusing, he seemed to know tons about everything, and he was nice and accomodating to everybody on the tour, and there were a lot of us. But I think it was just a little long, especially for someone like me that wanted to see as much of NYC as possible in my 5 day stay...on the other hand I did see quite a bit of the city from the bus window. I know there was a lot to see but I think some of the stops could have been left out. Overall, like I said, I saw a lot and it was pretty good. If you've got a lot of time, it's worth going. |
