Our tour guide was great - gave us a lot of insider knowledge on the show. Our only complaint is that no one mentioned the Bada Bing is a working strip club (although this may be more of an incentive for some). Fortunately for us, it wasn't too sleazy since the girls had to keep their tops on. Great tour overall - recommend for any Sopranos fan. |

The tour was informative. It would be more informative if you had people who could explain more of the movie shoots of the different scenes. Also maybe an actor or two could show up to add some spice to the tour. Overall it was a good tour. |

Marc Beron was our guide and he made the trip well worth it. He was so knowledgeable of anything to do with the show, played trivia games and showed film clips throughout the tour. The entire trip was fun and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of the show. My only regret was that my husband and I had to come to New York only to go back to New Jersey (where we came from) to see the sites. I never realized so much of the show took place here in New Jersey.
question: MARC STOPPED AT A PASTRY SHOP AND BOUGHT GONOLES (NOT SURE OF SPELLING) FOR EVERYONE ON THE BUS - PLEASE TRY TO GET ME THE NAME OF THE PASTRY SHOP - THEY WERE THE BEST EVER!

If you are a fan of the Sopranos that the tour is an excellent idea. you not only get to see the sites but also get to hear inside info as to production and filiming. The only downfall was that the bus driver drove a little too fast by some of the sites and I wasnt able to get pictures, and if I did then they were blurry. |

Good but what a con Vito charging money to autogr. |

Great tour, but a little bit of a 'take' to meet Vito and then after paying to go on the tour, have Vito selling autographs out of the boot of his Mercedes! I know people have to make a $, but a little low class this and makes the tour feel like you are getting 'shaken down'
Maybe increase the price of the tour and not have Vito accepting $20 bills at the back of the bus. Is he declaring this? |

I thought the guide was very informative and knew subject matter well.
It was great to meet one of the actors (Vito).
Location stops were good.
Bus was comfortable.
New Jersey is not very pretty. |

The Bada Bing is ok but you cannot take photos. The tour takes you to lots of places but none significant, You dont see Tonys house, You cannot go in Satrialles. Its all a lot of stops to road sides or driving passed front doors. It needs to be more real. Taking you to the house, taking you inside Arties restaurant. Tour guide is full of information which was great but the actual visual side is a let down. |

This truely was the highlight of a 1 week holiday in NY. We were excited beforehand as myself and my wife are both big fans of The Sopranos and it really did not let either of us down. We got to meet Vito and have our picture with him at the start of the tour which was such a massive bonus.
It was great to see so many locations we remembered from the show. There was one or two I couldn't remember but that just gave me yet another reason to watch the whole series from the start again.
Another highlight was Bada Bing, once we were inside it was surreal as its so much like it is in the show even down to dancing girls although they were dressed (just!).
The guide who's appeared in the show several times was great. His knowledge of the show and characters is untouchable and he really made the whole experience brilliant.
On our next visit to NY is very likely we'll do the whole tour again it was that good.

The tour was everything we had expected, and more!! We were excited to visit sites from the show and were not disappointed. The tour guide gave insight into the inner workings of the show and details that we would not have even thought to ask about. We have all the shows on DVD and plan to watch them again from the start. The new knowledge about the show we gained from the tour will make the viewing experience more enjoyable. We recommend to all!! |
