| Really liked Brian, but thought you could do more with the tour --
More particpation -show a clip -- ask what movie -- THEN go to the location or something --- maybe small small prizes for right answers -- have people pose in famous movie scenes on location --
there is a bit more you could do with it --

| The tour was O.K.. I would give it a 4 out of 10. Alot of the information We knew just by reading the newspaper or talk shows or even the tv or movies. We watched the monitors,mostly. I am from South Philly so I travel to N.Y. at least twice a year. Maybe that's why we were a little bored of it. We got out to see the "Cosby" house for a good 15 minutes and a lot of people didn't watch the show. I could tell they looked bored. I liked a lot of the shows he (the tour guide) was talking about, but he was telling us general things about the T.V. shows and Movies that were obvious to us. I felt bad for him, because he kept on saying he was an actor without a job!!!!! But, it was an O.K. tour maybe not for me and my family. I love New York and am coming back in December!!!!! It is a GREAT city!!!!!!!! |

| Our guide was great.
Tour itself was a little long, especially towards the end. Perhaps a little too much packed in.
A stop where something to drink or eat would be readily available would be helpful. The Rice to Riches stop was okay, but it was so incredibly rushed that there wasn't time to buy anything. |

| Emphasizes Ghostbusters, Hitch, Friends. You should be also be familiar with TV programs like Crosby Show, Seinfield, Sex in the City to get some value out of the tour. |

| Our family truly enjoyed taking the movie tour. We had an excellent tour guide who made the tour fun and exciting. We enjoyed the occasional stops and walking to various movie locations and having the tour guide take our pictures. Our favorite spot was the Friends Bldg. because we love watching that show. We liked the movie clips they gave on the bus as well. W especially liked getting the black and white cookie like they had in the Seinfeld show. We never had a black and white cookie before and it was great. We would definitely recommend this tour to our friends and family. |

| I really enjoyed the tour and it was a great way to see the city. I liked that we were able to watch the clips on the bus so remind us of the film locations. Tour guide Brian was fantastic. |

| My wife and I went on this tour for our one year anniversary. Even though we both live in New York, many of the areas and sites we saw were new to us. Highlights include seeing the exterior shots from Friends as well as stopping by Rice to Riches for rice pudding. My wife loved it so much, she's going to order from them all the time now. We will definitely be reccomending this tour to all our friends and family. Thanks for such an awsome time!

| I enjoyed this tour, however, I expected it to be a little different. The air-conditioned bus was nice on a hot day and I really enjoyed seeing the different parts of the city. However, our tour guide was fooling around with the VCR the whole time and just saying it was going crazy. I think she could have been more professional with it and just figured it out without a running commentary on what was happening. Some silence to take in everything is ok.
Our tour guide definitely knew the places, but I also saw a few things from brand new movies that were not pointed out (billboard for housing in Lakehouse). The black and white cookies were fun and a nice surprise. |
