| We took this tour in July '06. We really enjoyed it, and it seemed to take less time than the over three hours that we were actually on the tour. Overall, the tour was entertaining and informative. My wife and I had walked most of the city in the previous days, but the tour pointed out locatons we had missed, including the "Friends" building which we had walked by but not recognized, because we weren't looking for it. The one drawback is that many of the locations were from random (sometimes independent) movies which no one on the bus had ever seen, or from very old, lesser known movies. There have been so many movies and TV shows filmed in Manhattan that I would have expected many more recent and/or better known films. However, taken as a whole I would recommend the tour simply because you can't see everything walking that you can on the tour. And the tour guide is quite entertaining. |

| Jennifer was our guide and she was enthusiastic and very informative. We covered many locations and heard both older and up to date movies and TV shows. I was surprised that we did not go anywhere in Central Park as a stop. But other than that we were very entertained. The cookie giveaway is a plus. Jennifer did a very good job of descriptions and answering questions. I have recommended this tour to others and would take some of the other tours you have when I return to the city.
My niece and nephew who are teenagers were extremely impressed with the tour. This was what they expressed they enjoyed the most that we did during our trip. |

| Loved it - and am recommending it to everyone I know!
I'm a tour junkie, so I know from crappy tours. The TV and Movie tour was TOTALLY worthwhile and worth the money. It hit most of the highlights - and catered to every age group.
The tour guide, Kymberly, was one of the best guides I've ever had - she's knowledgeable, friendly and completely engaging. After the first few blocks, I was worried that I'd be bored, having lived in NYC almost 12 years and having seen the majority of the movies covered. Happily, I worried for nothing - and, there were a few movies and locations that she got me on.
The only true complaint were the non-tracked video clips...they were a great touch, though!
It was great to wander around the city in an air conditioned bus, and I loved every single one of the stops we got out at - the Huxtable house, the Friends' apartment, Minetta Lane, and Empire Diner were all great choices. They fed us a snack, but the highlight for me was the unexpected trip to Rice to Riches (YAY!).
Thanks for a great time! |
