The tour guide was knowledgeable but, the tour was disappointing. There was a lot of downtime while the bus driver was stuck in traffic. About half way through they stopped at Bloomingdales to let us off for some window shopping; we had already done that on our own, so we didn’t get back on the bus.

Christmas lights and movies on a Saturday night during the first NYC snowfall of winter. The best way to see the most! The elevated view of the lights, storefronts, and thousands of people on 5th Avenue was spectacular. Gingerbread cookies and improv comedy from our guide made the evening. Couldn't fix the traffic jams, but a better check-in system could be! No fun standing in rain for 20min to a half hour. Need to scan physical tickets and allow on busses immediately. That said, exceptional circumstances were in play. Cheers!!

Three of us decided to take this tour together and we were a little disappointed. Our tour guide was also a stand-up comedian, so he was funny but he was also a little distracted with his phone at times. He apologized frequently for not giving us a heads up in time to see a spot where a particular Christmas movie scene happened at the right time when we passed it. The bus driver never slowed down for us to actually get pictures of much that we saw. We made 3 stops where we got off the bus for 10 minutes to look at window displays. Two of the three weren't that Christmas related--the one at Barney's was worthless in my opinion. We did get to watch movie clips before actually driving by the locations where the scenes were shot and that was cool. The bus was warm and comfortable. I'm just not sure it was something I would choose to do again if I had it to do all over again.
