This is the best activity I could have chosen for my teenage daughter. It was a surprise for her, and she was so incredibly happy.
The guide tour, Vitali, was extraordinary, extremely kind and very funny. He knew all the details about Gossip Girl, and at every stop, my daughter was recognizing the scenes and was amazed by his explanations.
The weather was very cold, but he brought some blankets to make it warmer. If you go in high winter I highly recommend to bring 2 pairs of everything socks, pants, tshirt, sweater on top of the coat, gloves, etc.
I would certainly recommend it to anyone who has a teenage daughter or sun who loves Gossip Girl.
This tour was the absolute highlight for the teenage girls. My daughter pretty much complained about everything else we did. But she LOVED this. I thought the tour was oerf Carly in every way. The guide sent us txt messages ahead of time about the weather and what to wear. Then the morning of the tour I sent him a message that we were a block Shawn at Starbucks. He said just stay there in ththe warm and he would come get us. Which he did in a very cute elf outfit. Perfect for the holidays. Then he had a seat warmer it was 20 degrees out and a giant blanket. He clearly knew his gossip girl stuff and he had a book of pictures from the show of each place we visit d. He let us out at many of the stops to take pictu and the girls to specially like the macaroons at Blairs favorite macaroons shop. He even had music that match d the trip. He also knew enough history about the city to keep mom entertained. This trip was well worth the time and money. It has my highest recommendation!
