Family seeing the spots - Chris was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and personable. Being able to see locations around upper and lower Manhattan was great!! Our favorite part ended up being Washington Sq. Park. The guide let us hang out there for about 10 minutes, and it was a pleasant surprise. A great place to people watch as well as get great shots from the location of When Harry Met Sally, Big Daddy, and others. Oh, and we drove by the Louis Vuitton building!! I booked through GoCity App, and it was super easy.

Great tour guide - Parker was great and I was so relieved when he talked about Elf and Miracle in 34th Street that he didn’t ruin Santa for my two little ones on the tour with us!

This was a great way to spend a rainy afternoon and get some more history and sites in - We had an afternoon and had this on our list. It hit a few spots we did not see and our guide was very knowledgeable. It was raining so an excellent way to spend the afternoon.

Worth the hype - Such a fun way to see things in NY that we would have never found on our own. So much history and such an amazing guide. Chris was our guide and he was funny and very knowledgable. Definitely time/money well spent. Would do it again. Thanks Chris

Great morning film spotting! - We had Chris as our guide for the Movies & TV Bus Tour. I don't think it was 3 hours, I think it was more like 2 hours, however it was very good. Chris was very informative and it was great to see locations that you may not know from films and tv that you watch time and time again! We had 3 stops where we got off the bus, Friends Apartment, Ghostbuster Firehouse and near Columbus Park where we watched an episode of FBI being filmed. That was really cool to see. If you love films and tv this is the tour for you.

Definitely worth it! - Our tour guide Chris was outstanding! He had a lot of great information, took pictures for us, and made us laugh! The length of the tour was perfect and everyone had a great time. I liked how they played video clips of movies and shows that were shot at locations we were at. The bus was a smaller one and very comfortable. Highly recommend!

NYC TV and Movie whirlwind tour - Our family took this tour on Boxing Day which was a lovely sunny day but was extremely cold. Our tour guide Chris welcomed us and everyone onto the bus and was very engaging. Once the tour started he was very informative and enthusiastic. He gave everyone plenty of time on the location stop offs before moving. Highly recommend this tour if visiting NYC.

Despite stagnation (1. Month before) Amount unauthorised debited!!!! - We wanted to go to New York in October, had to cancel the trip already in September We booked this tour for free via the GoCity Pass. Cancelled the GoCity pass and tour in September (confirmation of cancellation of tour received in writing!). The amount of 102 dollars was still debited from my credit card!!!! After querying “On Location Tours” it was said that the cancellation was never received, although I sent the confirmation email from “On Location Tours” again. As a result, there was no more feedback. I hope I can get that back through my credit card provider. Absolutely unprofessional. The topic is not forgotten yet and will continue to fight for my right!!!!

Waste of time and money!! - Arrived at meeting place (Ellen’s diner) at 10.30 ready for the 11.00 am tour. No sign of anyone, We spoke to other tour vendors across the road who said they were notorious for not turning up!!!! Great!!! Other people were also waiting with us. The bus turned up at 11.15 We went across the woman guide told us, it was the end of the previous tour and we should wait across the road and she would come to us…….. she had no intention of doing that and she didn’t!! I went back to speak to the driver John. John was very helpful and rang the office. They apparently emailed everyone to rearrange time to 12.00 . This was another lie, we all checked our emails and no email was sent. Lots of back and forth, everyone getting annoyed and some cancelling altogether as they had other booked tours/commitments. This totally messed our day up also. So we waited until 12.00 when the tour guide (the same woman) turned up. Said again we should have had an email!! We eventually set off. The tour itself was pretty boring (we’ve done two before which were brilliant) The tour states it lasts 3 hours and it lasted 2!! It was a waste of money. So I therefore do not recommend this tour or company
