Very informative and fun tour! - My son is a huge Spider-Man fan and we found this tour on the GoCity app. Percy did a great job telling us about all the different areas in the city that were used in movies and comics. So much information about the history of comics and characters! We had a great time at all the different spots and learned a lot!

Great for the whole family - A great tour for my superhero loving family. John our guide was great, very knowledgable and informative. My husband and teens loved it. I enjoyed the historical aspects of it. It was an early evening tour so temp was in the 30s F. Made it a bit difficult for us southern californians. Luckily my husband made a quick hot choc grab n go along the way.

Superhero walk - Went on this tour as my son is a major superhero fan. Can’t believe how much I enjoyed this tour as well! Our tour guide, Cameron, was excellent company. Really informative and engaging. He took us to several sights based on Marvel and DC films and comics, and passed on great stories and anecdotes. I can highly recommend this tour, it’s not walking for miles and none up hill. If you even have a passing interest in the superhero genre then you will get a lot out of this. Loved it.

A Must for a comic lover - If you are a real fan of comic books with some films on the side, this is your thing! Percy was the most enthusiastic guide and very knowledgeable about everything in the DC and Marvel universe. We had a very pleasant time and 2 hours were over in no time
