Stop at Zabar's was interesting, but too short.

We arrived by subway. Parking in NYC is always a problem.

Secret Romances
Disclaimer: We went to the first ever tour of this kind the company offered, so of course perfection was not to be expected.Written on Mar 11 2010
Too many movies have been made in NY to include them all on this tour. I feel that a lot of movies were crammed into the tour though. And trust me, the movies are classics as in, nothing is talked about after 1980s or 90s.
We stopped at Zabar's food market on the Upper West Side -- I don't know what for. I'm not sure it had anything to do with movies at all. The nicest part was getting to see the 59th St bridge and taking pictures. We took pics on the subway grate Marilyn Monroe stood on.
As mid-twenty somethings, we didn't know very many of the movies talked about, but we figured we could have a fun time anyway.
Unless you're a die hard classic movie fan, this tour wasn't worth it, even at the Goldstar price.

Maybe the tour is good for out-of-towners, but for New Yorkers stops at sidewalk gratings, apartment buildings, and hotels just aren't exciting.Written on Mar 08 2010
