I took the Central Park Movie Sites walking tour a few weeks ago, and cannot recommend it enough. Our guide, Katy, had an incredible amount of information on the park, the filming sites, and industry knowledge from being a working actor. The pace was perfect and was overall it was such a relaxing and enjoyable stroll. Definitely would take again!

We booked a private Sex and the City tour for ourselves and our teenage niece. The tour was conducted by Lou, a very knowledgeable and professional guide. She was so nice. Lou took us through the Village, pointing out sites where filming was done, and giving us exact references to scenes amd episodes. We even stopped at a bakery and a bar featured in certain episodes. We were thrilled. We had a comfortable ride in a tour van, and walked through an enclosed market place featured in the series. It was a great experience. I highly recommend this tour to any and every Sex and the City devotee.

Was looking for things to do with the city pass and found the NYC TV & Movie Tour with them. The tour guide Lou had very good knowledge and a great attitude. We saw popular spots in NY like the Friends Apartment, Washington State park, Ghostbusters Headquarters and many others. You will enjoy this if you are a huge fan of movies, especially American.

Ok, I'm fashionably late in writing this review for the Sex and the City tour I took with my BFF on April 25, 2025, but better late than never! Hannah was our tour guide, and she was fabulous! Apologies, but I forgot the name of the driver, he was amazing as well- navigating traffic, fixing the microphone, and making sure the AC was pumping. Hannah was professional, entertaining, and had all kinds of tidbits. She even took pictures of us at some of the locations we hopped off at. The mini-cupcake from Magnolia Bakery was delicious, and the Cosmopolitan was fabulous! The three-hour tour flew by! I highly recommend this tour and Hannah! Now if the tour company can just update their marketing and media to include Hannah (she wasn't on the brochure or emails we received about the company guides:(
