For example, the owners of the residence have moved the number from 64 to 66, and they also encountered some long disturbances and property invasions from the Sex and the City fans. However, Carrie Bradshaw's address in the show is 245 east 73rd Street with the glamorous gigantic closet, indeed this rent-stabilized apartment was in the West Village. Nonetheless, the 66 Perry street has become on the main hotspots of the show and the owners even had to ask tour buses not to stop in front of the residence as well as blurring out the image of the house from the Google Maps.

(Optional, if time allows) Oniel's has become known for being a part of the HBO Sex and the City TV Series. The bar stood in for SCOUT and owned by Carrie and Miranda’s ex-boyfriends, Aidan and Steeve. The bar proudly claims that it is famous for being the replacement for that “casually hip” bar. The main feature of the Grand Street Bar for any Sex and the City watcher is the interior and furniture design that Carrie made for her first boyfriend Aidan. The interior mostly consists of dark, shiny and hand-carved wood, but most importantly it feels like the bar was specifically built for the show and Aidan. The fans of the series would confirm this claim if recall Carrie’s quote upon her first time looks at the SCOUT: “There was no sign for him, but he was everywhere. In the mahogany bar, wood floors, carved ceiling. The whole place looked and felt just like Aidan.”

Tour Guide let it down.
Unfortunately the experience was not as good as we expected. The itinerary was fine and what we saw was fine. But the tour guide was not so great. He was not really so knowledgeable about SATC, only about the locations visited; he was however incredibly knowledgeable about other aspects of the city and other movie locations. He kept referring to the itinerary to see what was next. We took two buses and the subway during the tour, and had to pay even though the description infers its included. He wasn’t enthusiastic in his delivery, he just wasn’t at all what we expected from a guide on this specific tour. His Official Tour Guise badge also expired in 2024?! Using the itinerary we could have done this tour ourselves and not had the expense of a private tour. Gutted as it was a treat for my friends birthday. If there’s a refund, I’ll take it. If you can choose another tour or tour guide, take it!!
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations, especially as it was booked as a birthday treat for your friend. We are pleased that you enjoyed the itinerary and the locations visited. We also appreciate your kind comments about the guide's extensive knowledge of New York City and its many film and television locations. We are sorry, however, that his style and level of focus on Sex and the City did not match what you were hoping for. We will certainly share your comments with him as constructive feedback. Regarding transportation, this tour includes walking and the use of public transportation, as stated in the tour description. Any applicable subway or bus fares are the responsibility of the participants. We also appreciate you bringing the guide's badge to our attention. We will look into this to ensure all credentials are current and displayed correctly. Thank you again for your feedback. We value every review as an opportunity to improve and hope we will have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future. Kind regards,

Give it a miss
Wasn’t value for money at all. Visited some sites from the show, including Carrie’s brownstone but most of the time the guide talked about unrelated sites. Give it a miss. Could have done it ourselves with a little bit of research.
Response from the operator: Dear Karina, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. Our tour is carefully designed to include key filming locations alongside broader New York context, which many guests find adds depth and perspective to the experience. That said, we understand that you were hoping for a more exclusively show-focused tour, and we regret that this did not fully align with your expectations. We would also like to note that the overall experience on a private tour can be influenced by the level of engagement and interaction during the walk, as guides aim to adapt dynamically to the flow of the group. We appreciate your comments and will continue refining the experience to ensure it delivers both strong thematic focus and a well-balanced narrative. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts. Should you travel with us again, we would be happy to tailor a tour more closely to your specific interests and preferences. Warm regards,

Adam is very enthusiastic NYC tour guide
Adam my tour guide was very enthusiastic about touring the city & giving addtl nuggets of information about other movie landmarks as well as Sex in the City. It definitely was a lot of walking. I just wish there was more opportunity to see more sites of interest. But seeing Carrie Bradshaw's brownstone iconic stoop was worth it!!

Not a knowledgeable guide for this sex in the city tour
Very nice man who gave us the tour. HOWEVER, his knowledge (or memory) of the sex and City show was shaky at best. Mixing up characters, mixing up the show with the movie. On the positive, He supplemented with a lot of NYC history and other show/movie locations. We were a little frustrated and cut the tour short by an hour. In sum, not the experience we were expecting for a private intimate tour. I don't he should be assigned to this tour.

Just finished the WWII and Communism with Kamil from 100 Spires City Tours. Kamil is, without doubt, one of the best guides I've had during the many walking tours experienced throughout Europe. He was able to explain clearly and concisely the last hundred years of the complicated history of the Czech Republic keeping us interested , entertained and oftentimes moved by his narrative filled with anecdotes and stories. Perhaps, more importantly, he was able to give us a glimpse of the Czech psyche today, a result of all that the people have experienced in the past 100 years. Yesterday we did the Castle Tour with James which was also excellent. I cannot recommend 100 Spires City Tours enough !

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show cost?
+
Prices start at $87 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 Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 25 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 Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show?
+
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 Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show?
+
Around 9 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Sex and The City Tour in New York with Movie Scenes from famous TV show 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.
