    Fabulous ding ding ding...

    This was the highlight of our trip to New York. We met our fantastic guide, Amanda, in front of the plaza and she pointed out 6 places in that locality and told us what scenes had been filmed in each. We then met our lovely driver, John, and took off on a complete fandom tour. Amanda had loads of inside info on the girls, filming and locations & it was very interactive with Amanda asking questions and inviting us to chat about our thoughts on the show & the characters. We ate cupcakes, drank cosmopolitans, had our photo taken at Carrie's stoop and so much more. I would highly recommend this tour for fans, it brings Sex and the City to life.

    Response from the operator: The highlight of your NYC trip?!?! We are honored! Thank you for sharing the details of your fabulous tour with Amanda and John.

    Tour from Hell

    Our tour guide, Amanda, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun. But, I think she should have used better judgment about the conditions we had to endure during the tour, We had a miserable time because it was over 90 degrees, the A/C on the bus wasn’t working, the windows didn’t open and we were drenched in sweat. No water was offered nor any partial refund for this 3-hour dehydrating & uncomfortable experience. Another bus should have been acquired or the tour cancelled/refunded rather than “cooking” all of us in a confined space for that long.

    Lou was the best storyteller and guide! We loved the van, the driver was wonderful. So easy to navigate all the sites!

    We saw it all! Lou was a wonderful guide and told us all kinds of interesting facts about filming SATC. Highly recommend this tour for fans.

    SATC tour review

    Hannah was great. My wife had a blast. I knew absolutely nothing but had fun. Fee was fine. The tour didn't seem long or short, seemed just right. The bus fit about a dozen or so people. Driving was safe. Good atmosphere. Best for people who watched the show for sure.

    Sex in the City tour

    We did the Sex in the City bus tour. The was a great tour. Our guide Ryahn, (I think that’s how she spelled it), was amazing. We got to see and experience many of the hot spots from the show. It’s a great way to see the iconic locations. Also a great way to spend the afternoon.

    New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.

    How much does New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $213 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 New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours 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 New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 57 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable nightlife in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided Tour?

    +

    Around 20 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 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does New York City: Sex and the City Hotspots Private Guided 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.
