thoroughly enjoyed this tour - an excellent tour-guide, thank you Rosanne, who was very informative on all things movie related, and her continual commentary of the surrounding locations was top-notch!!
the video-clips used during traffic were a great way of highlighting the locations as they were used in the movie or TV programme!!
the walk-abouts off the bus were great; standing across the street from the Friends' building was quite surreal!! and a definite must-do is the opportunity to try the rice pudding from Rice to Riches!!
we had such a good time on this tour that we plan to do another next time we come to New York, thank you!!! |

This tour was a highlight of my time in New York. We saw so much of the city and got to know lots of different districts. Roxanne ( I hope that is her name!) was fantastic. She knew the city inside out, kept everyone happy and organised and told us great information. Locations were well researched and appropriate, loved the DVD as well. I would recommend this to anyone. It was particularly great to do at the start of time in New York so you can go back to locations you enjoyed and brag to others about how much you have leant on the tour. I would have loved to see Carrie's apartment form Sex and the City but I realise that this is a seperate tour!
Thanks for a great experience |

Roseanne was a very informative and enthusuatic tour guide. Had a great trip around the city. Off the bus walks were nice for the reprieve from driving but most could have been seen from the bus. Favorite part of the trip. . the rice pudding shop. Should have stopped at the cupcake shop too! Thanks! |

the tour is good, but I would love to see more from recent movies. Some movies are really old and I don't know at all. Our tour guide Rosanne (hopefully I spell her name right...) is excellent and enthusiastic about movies. She knows a lot and takes care of everyone's need. |

Quite Good |

The tour was excellent but perhaps there was a bit too little emphasis on the older film sites and stars of the Golden Era such as where Bogie played Chess etc |
|
Great morning activity! |

We really enjoyed the TV/movie tour! It was a wonderful way to see the sites in NYC, and we were a mix of people, some who had been to NYC many times, and some that were there for their first time, so it was SO nice to spend a few hours sightseeing the best of New York without taking all day to do it! We saw so many of the areas that we had never been to before, the Village, SoHo, Tribeca, it was great!! Really enjoyed our tour guide, Jessica, she was SO knowledgeable and full of fun info, the 3 hours went so fast! LOVED that she had movie clips that coinsided with the places we saw- that really made the sights recognizeable! One of the best aspects of our trip! |

If you like TV and movies you'll love this tour! With the extremely knowledgeable Roseanne as our tour leader, everything movie and tv in New York, we saw it. Loved the black and white cookie and the Rice to Riches stop. Would have liked to see the Seinfeld restaurant but we were able to see it after our tour finished. The traffic in New York ensured that we got a good look at everything and didn't have to race through the tour. Loved it and would give it a 'two thumbs up' rating. |

Would be better with a group |

The tour was interesting and everything I had hoped for. However, the guide's humor was lost on most people making it difficult to not get bored at certain points, especially since the tour is lengthy. My husband and I agreed that it would have been more fun if we went with a group of our friends so that we could all joke together and entertain eachother as we looked at the various sites.
I dont know if it was just the group on this particular tour but it wasnt very interactive, no one laughed, no one talked, no one joked. So again, although the tour itself was fun, it was hard to not get bored as you ride with 50 silent stiff necks. |
