| 5 of us took the tour. 1 local & the others came from Ireland and London. All loved the tour. It went 30mins over due to traffic so that was the only bad thing as we had less time to do things after the tour. Good to go and see places like Minnetta St & Meat packing district as they may not have seen these places. Guide was good and gave lots of information about various locations.

| It was great, but a majority of the movies referenced were from long ago. I had no clue what we were looking at. But for the price, you get to see alot of the city. |

| Found the tour to be both interesting and informative. A good way to see Manhattan for the first time visiting areas you wouldn't normally go to. Photo opportunities were plenty and we weren't disapointed with anything. Managed to see filming of a Law and Order episode which was a bonus. We will consider doing it again when we return next year. |

| Overall, the tour was great. Our tour guide was wonderful -- very enthusastic and knowledgeable about movies. The bus tour and video clips were great. My only complaint is that I wasn't familiar with most of the movies. Understandable, there are so many movies filmed in New York so it is hard to get a good mix of ones that everybody knows (the clips help), and it was a good mix of old and new -- but it would be better if some more well known movies were done with clips where you could see the actual place you were visiting (not movie sets or nonrecognizable clips). |

Highly recommended, informative and very funny

| Kimberly, our tour guide, was extraordinary. She was vibrant, informed, funny and knows that city like the back of her hand. I would do this tour again when I return to the city. |

| I loved the Movie and Television trip, but just expect that there are only 5 places where you phisically get off the bus and look around. Yes, the friends building, and the cosby house are two of those stops. Everything else like The Soup Natzi, and other scenes from Friends, Spiderman, and other movies are "If you look out the window to your left, there is the building Chandler works in". You go by the majority of the stops very quickly, you might luck out if you are stuck in a traffic light, but ask the tour guide which side of the bus you should sit in for certain sites. I was on the wrong side of the bus for the "Coyote Ugly" bar, and that movie means so much to me, and I didn't get a picture of it. The only thing I got was the woman's face across from me. But if you go in with the mindset that you will zoom by most sites, and only stop for a few, you'll love to tour. The tour is worth it alone for the Friends building and the Cosby House. |
