| The tour was 3 1/2 hr....we sang , watched clips from the locations we were seeing & we had 5 stops....Paris Hilton was filming for her latest release & we saw that ....
Rice to Riches Restuarant was very different & we saw the Sex & the City episode from it.....I'll never watch a movie or commercial the same again.....Highly recommend......Our tour guide was a hoot.......an rising actress herself......I'd like to see the other tours also sometime.....We saw house fronts from NY that were filmed in stages in Ca & the background didn't match what you would see or hear in NY....But if you aren't from NY or hadn't taken a tour , how would you know? Movie Magic........Incredible.... |

| I fund the tour to be both informative and good fun. Our guide Roseanne was extremely knowledgable and entusiastice about the film industry and her great personality and made the whole trip both interesting and fun. The cookie was an unexpected bonus! |

| Unfortunately for us the weather was shocking, pouring nearly all day. The air conditioning in the bus was not working properly fogging up the windows making if vitually impossible to see. Eventually the airconditioning kicked in, but then one of the monitors for the film clips wasn't working properly either making it very dificult to watch. Because of the weather we didn't make as many stops as usually and I also felt that if they had been able to supply $1 ponchos it may have made the tour more pleasant. The tour guide did a very good job against all odds. |

| The TV and Movie location tour was a realhighlight of our holiday in New York. The guide - Brian - was superb with a wonderful sense of humour. He needed all his sense of humour on theday as the weather was awful and there were major problems with the coach - air conditioning and video monitors not working. He rose above all adversities with aplomb. A wonderful time was had by all. |

| The tour was very good but we couldn't see out of the bus for the first ten minutes of the tour as the bus was so steamed up. Then the middle tv screen kept not working. few bus technical faults but our guide was very good and tried his best. i think it would have been an excellent tour without the technical faults. |

Total waste of time!!

| With the exception of a few things (Friends house, Cosby house, Empire Diner) I found this tour to be a total waste of three of my precious hours in the city. DO NOT do this tour!! |

| We had a wonderful time on the tour. Our group consisted of 6 people from 19 to 75 years of age and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it - even the ones who aren't into TV and movies. The tour guide, Jessica, was great - very knowledgeable and accommodating and organized! The tour gave us an overview of some areas in NYC that we wouldn't have probably seen otherwise. The clips of the shows helped to connect the sites and there were a variety of activities. Time went quickly - great idea to have us get out and walk around. Ellen's Stardust Diner where we met is a fun place to get a bite to eat! |

| We enjoyed the NY TV and Movie tour. We hadn't been to NYC before and it was a good overall tour of the city. We would have enjoyed the tour more if it had been 2 hours long instead of 3 hours long. |

| The tour was really informative and intersting. It's great for tourists who are into movies because you get the best of both worlds. |
