We had a great time. The tour was a little long though. I wish we could have met more stars and watched more clips from the Show. However, I was very excited to meet Vito and take photos.
Stopping by the Bing was fun, but I didn't want to touch anything. Also, I wish we could have taken a photo or 2 from the inside just to show that I was there.
Great job! |

Wow, what a great afternoon in the Meadowlands! |

I loved this tour. Everything was well-organized and smooth. It included lots of actual locations, gave us plenty of time to walk around key spots (such as the parking lot where Christopher was shot), and made good use of video clips from the show so we could see on the screen what we were seeing in person. The highlight for me was our stop at the Bada Bing, where we had about 20 minutes to have a drink (if we wanted, which I did) and to see the sights. Even though he must do this tour all the time, the guide was consistently natural, never stale or canned. He peppered us with "Sopranos" trivia questions, pointed out geographical impossibilities and continuity errors in the show, and told stories about his own work for the series as a double and occasional small-role player. The tour I was on got bogged down in traffic and so ran about 90 minutes long. The guide managed somehow to fill the time and never seemed to lose his naturalness or enthusiasm for the show. I accidentally left my souvenir t-shirt from the Bada Bing on the bus, and so had to call them (frantic!) later when I discovered my error. The office people and the guide could not have been any nicer about the situation and arranged for me to pick it up from them the next day. I will definitely be on another of their tours the next time I'm in New York! |

As a tourist from Holland the best time to take this trip is when you have a
jetlag. You can relax, let things happen and take photo's from the bus.
The jokes are very 'americain', you don't always know what is so funny, but.....
you have a jetlag and it doesn't matter.
Coming through the tunnel from Manhattan to Jersey, you enter the 'real America',
the ugly buildings, dirty industries, diners under bridges, junk everywhere.
You must review all the Soprano tv series to be able to know the answers to the
quiz-questions, but you can also enjoy listening to those people on the bus who know a lot, or just not enough. Americans are very happy when they win a price, even if it is
'a piece of cake'.
And the Bada Bing club, saved for last, is the ulimate jetlag experience.
Go go go
( the t-shirtts can be found for half the price on the streets of Manhattan) |

The guide and tour were great, but it easily could have been an hour shorter. It was a little too detailed. |

Very good tour |

I have nothing but great things to say about this tour! The guide was great! I told someone after the tour that he made the characters seem like real people. Not just fictitious characters on a TV show. I don’t think you can say much more about a tour of this kind than that.
Also, the bus was very nice. Made all of the driving very comfortable. Great driver as well.
Over all I would honestly give this tour 10 out of 10!!!!
Keep it up!!
