Felt like an insider and great way to see other areas of the city! Great stories from the guide, Scott Bolohan!

This tour is well worth the time and money. The tour guide we had was fun and really enjoyed his work. Our driver was personable and professional. It was 16 degrees out that day and our driver kept the bus nice and warm for us. Taking this tour is a great way to see A LOT of New York in 3 hours.

We went on the TV and Movie Tour on the 14th January. Our guide Gary was great, very knowledgeable and entertaining. We stopped off at the fire station from ghostbusters, slightly disappointed with the scaffolding around it so unable to take clear pictures. The friends building and washington square park. We was shown lots of clips and pictures from various locations. Overall experience was really enjoyable. The only thing i would say negatively is we drove past the hotel from home alone on two occasions. Would of been nice to stop off there and take some pictures rather than take them from the bus. We was also informed that Carries apartment from Sex and the City was just around the corner from were we was but didn’t stop there or drive past. It again would of been nice to actually of seen that too. I do understand that there is separate trips specifically for cerain things but i did expect those two stops to be included. Would still definitely recommend this tour.
