It was the most perfect way to spend Christmas Eve with their holiday lights tour and reminiscing as movie clips were shown with NYC holiday scenes. It was great to be allowed to get off the bus at various locations to take pictures and enjoy the decorated windows as well as walk around Bryant Park holiday market. Didn't even mind being stuck in traffic as it gave me more time to view the holiday decorations and Rockefeller Christmas tree from inside the warm, cozy minibus with festive holiday lights. The tour guide, Hila was very dynamic and engaging as she shared fun facts and gave us treats whenever we answered questions correctly. It was also so nice to meet friendly tourists from all over the world. This particular tour was fun for adults and children as I went with my son and another girlfriend and we all had a blast! I'm looking forward to doing other On Location tours.

The Night tour was very informative and provided information about New York City and Christmas movie trivia. We purchased premium seating in which I feel is not necessary. The city was very crowded and it took longer to get to each location, Macy was closed upon arrival. We had a good time and would have never been able to see it all so the price was right. I have booked with on location before and if I had to choose the “Sex in the City” tour is the best!!!!

Highly recommend the tv and film locations tour. It was really easy to get my pass, the meet up location was easy to find and the bus was comfy. Chris - our guide - was so much fun and driver was great too!I had done several walking days prior to this tour and seen most of the sites already but had no idea just how many films and shows they’d been in, and how many I’d seen but not known about at all.I liked being able to get out at a few stops as well. I paid for the premium adult seat as I was traveling alone, and it was worth the extra few dollars to be at the front of the bus. Definitely recommend, and will do another tour when I get to visit the city again.
