About this tour

New York City has played a starring role in hundreds of movies and TV shows. On this private New York City movie walking tour, trace the city’s cinematic past through the streets of Midtown Manhattan, where familiar landmarks become scenes from the screen.

Choose a 2-hour walk to visit filming locations around Rockefeller Center, the 21 Club, Grand Central Terminal, and the Empire State Building. For a longer outing, select the 4-hour option, which adds the Museum of the Moving Image and a one-way public transportation ticket. A licensed guide fluent in your chosen language leads a special itinerary focused on movies and television, sharing stories about the locations and the American film industry. The number of attractions depends on your selected option. Museum admission is timed; ticket validation and security checks may still involve a wait.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
