Yes, it is up for grabs again: Carrie’s apartment a.k.a. the brownstone from the popular HBO series, Sex and the City. At only 9.65 million, this beauty is sure to make a quick sale. It has ten rooms, six fireplaces, and the front door was home to Carrie’s first smooches on the show. According to area news, this apartment has been a real nuisance in the past due to tour buses constantly stopping in front of the building. Therefore in 2008, area neighbors finally stopped this from happening (Dumas, 2012). This is where I come in. It just so happens I have been on this exact tour! Yep! Thanks to my hubby who took me to NYC for my birthday last year. He surprised me with a fabulous Sex and the City tour through On Location tours. I do remember passing Carrie’s apartment, but we were unable to stop for photos. However, we did have a fabulous time. Read below about my Sex and the City tour in NYC.
A glimpse into last year’s tour…
I had the pleasure of attending the Sex and the City screen tour through downtown New York City this past week and had so much fun that I had to share the idea on this blog. Our tour guide, Ms. Amy Albert was not only fun, but quite humorous as well. All company tour guides are active professional actresses and comedians who know the business, and Ms. Albert is no exception. Currently, she can be seen performing her own show, Delilah Dix and her Bag of Tricks. Her funky style and animated humor kept the entire tour laughing and in pure enjoyment the entire way. Even my husband enjoyed himself despite never having seen the show.
Which tour should you choose? This depends on the type of package and interests of your party. Since my husband knew I was addicted to the Sex and the City show when it used to air on HBO, he opted for the Sex and the City screen tour. The tour consisted of three to four stops throughout New York City at famous scenes featured on the show, show trivia with Ms. Albert’s spicy humor, and of course a free cupcake at the famed “Scout” bar featured on the show. Plus, we experienced a private tour through Manhattan in sections that are not typical of the usual New York City bus tours such as the beautiful West Village.
One particular girls night out package that sounds really fun is ‘The Samantha” private tour from the Sex and the City packages. According to the On Location Tours brochure, it includes a limousine tour of the Sex and the City hotspots, dinner at a famous location featured on the show, free admission into a famous lounge featured on the show with a free round of drinks, and gifts relevant to the show for the party. There are also other fun Sex and the City packages, which are customized according to the character of your choice from the show.
Now you may ask, what about my boyfriend or fiancé? No worries! The company features guys night out packages as well. One featured guys night out package includes a private limousine tour of the famous Sopranos hotspots. The tour also includes the ability to visit the Sopranos famed diners, gentleman’s clubs, and the Bada Bing club.
So next time you are wondering what to do on a Friday night or you are stuck planning your best friend’s bachelorette party, contact On Location Tours. Their tour guides will make sure you have a fabulous night filled with spectacular Hollywood fun. Your friends will thank you for it.
