It will better to have the little book before the trip because it will be easier to see the location. Kimberley was great! |

Some of New York's greatest TV and movie spots are highlighted on this tour. There were lots of Friends, Seinfeld, Cosby, and Will & Grace spots (although not the Seinfeld Diner). Lots of movies, both old and new, were showcased, too, along with a video clip to show the actual city spot on film. The guide even had a list of current filmings in the city in case any movie shooting was spotted along the way. New York has obviously been used so much as a setting for entertainment, that no tour could ever be comprehensive, but this one certainly gives it a good effort. And, the guide was knowledgeable about reasons for director choices of settings as well as some elements of movie-making that would impact set choice. In addition to seeing some great familiar spots, it is also a nice way to get oriented to Manhattan in general. I would definitely recommend this trip for a first time visitor. |

Some of this was not your fault |

To much construction and buses got in the way of seeing things. Not sure you could have done much about it other than change the time, maybe should be earlier in the morning or late afternoon.
Would have liked to see location shots of more recent and more popular movies. |

Rosanna, the Guide for my tour was brilliant. She was enthusiastic and informative and kept people's interest up even when there were no specific sights to see. The same applies to our driver (whose name I'm afraid I forget) who was amazingly funny and joined in to the extent of doing a Jeffersons impression. As Brits we had never heard of the Jeffersons but amusement was still shared!
The tour was fantastic value for money, and the sights covered an enormous range of tv shows and movies. It was also a great way to see parts of the city that would have been otherwise undiscovered by my friends and I.
I have and will continue that all friends that visit the city take one of the tours offered. |

We enjoyed the tour. Different people had seen different movies and TV shows so it was hard to please everyone. The leader should have showed some of the clips closer to the sites. She was warm and friendly. We recommend this. |

...you could do far far worse than taking this one. The guides knowledge is astounding and her openess to comments, questions etc was second to none. She constantly kept us entertained and made it a wise decision to drag ourselves out of the movie theatres and onto the streets of the worlds best city.

Our entire group of 6 absolutely loved this bus tour. We were able to relax on the bus while being fed entertainment and historical facts about certain sites and then we were able to get off the bus to see other sites up close and personal. We had plenty of photo opportunities. Our guide really knew her stuff which made the tour so very interesting and entertaining. The time flew by! I would definitely recommend this tour and give it an A+++! |
