The Cherry Hill Fountain in Central Park is often considered an inspiration for the iconic Friends opening credits fountain. While the actual filming took place on a Warner Bros. lot in Los Angeles, the resemblance between the two fountains has led many fans to associate Cherry Hill Fountain with the beloved show. Located in the heart of Central Park, this picturesque spot has become a must-visit for Friends enthusiasts looking to experience a piece of what may have influenced the show's unforgettable intro.

It was so much more than we paid for, our tour guide included info about tons of movies and shows, not just Friends! We were impressed!

Great tour around Central Park and all things Friends!
Had a great tour with our own Ukrainian Joey Tribiani! He was very friendly, bubbly and knowledgeable about so things Friends. He also showed us plenty of things unrelated to Friends. John Lennons apartment, Only murder in the building apartment etc. Highly recommended.

Friends locations tour and more!!!
“Joey” our guide, not one single word describes how amazing he is or the tour, very friendly and approachable. Not only was it a friends locations tour but turned into a tour around New York and as an added bonus we went to Carrie Bradshaw’s stoop which I’m a huge fan of. I would not think of going with any other tour, we were unsure whether to do the friends experience tour, really glad we didn’t.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Friends Locations Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does Friends Locations Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New York usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Friends Locations Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New York is not rushed.
Is Friends Locations Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Friends Locations Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Friends Locations Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Friends Locations Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New York can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New York and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Friends Locations Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New York within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New York?
+
New York has more bookable experiences than any other city on Outty, and the quality spread is brutal. Observation decks are commoditised, so we score them on timed-entry reliability and sunset slots. Food tours and borough walks are where the ranking really separates operators, and the top scores in the city all come from small-group guides. On Outty we rank every New York experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Grand Canyon VIP Helicopter Tour, Half-Day Bus Tour of NYC Top Highlights, NYC Bus Tour of Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens: Art, Food & Sports. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New York?
+
September to early November, and late April through June. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New York?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
