TV & Movie Locations Tour with Official NBC Studios Tour
Take a guided tour of some of the most famous set locations in NYC from both TV and film. New York City is packed with famous spots but it’s often hard to recognize them without someone in the know to show you. You’ll see Tiffany’s from ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’, the 21 club from ‘Wall Street’ and the Seinfeld Soup Nazi stand, among many others. Along the way you’ll pass showbiz landmarks like Radio City Music Hall, Carnegie Hall and Studio 54. The tour ends with a bite to eat at the bar used as the model for the one in How I Met Your Mother.
NBC studios has consistently produced some of the best television shows in America for more than 80 years. Now you can go behind the scenes at their headquarters in Rockefeller Center to get an unprecedented view of their production process. Then put your knowledge to work creating your own 5-minute talk show. Finally you’ll hit the streets for a tour of some of NYC’s most memorable TV and movie locations. After you see where they shot some of your favorite scenes you’ll never look at the city in the same way again.
Recently revised and re-launched, the NBC Studio Tour starts by visiting two of the official production studios, such as the ones where they shoot Saturday Night Live or the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Then it’s on to the nerve centers of NBC – the video & audio studios and the control center where satellite feeds are monitored 24 hours a day. You’ll get a 360-degree view of the production process and see just how many moving parts it takes to make a single television show.
Then comes the highlight of the tour: It’s all hands on deck as your group creates its own talk show segment. Everyone gets a job; be it cameraman, host or interviewee. After your tour, NBC will email you a copy of your segment - the perfect keepsake for a unique experience.
Tour Highlights:
See some of your favorite TV and movie locations, like the fountain from ‘Friends’ and Tiffany’s from ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s.’
Enjoy a small group of 12 people or fewer so you get plenty of personal attention from your guide.
Film your own DIY talk show in a real TV studio - everyone gets a job and the producers will email you a cut after the tour.
Visit the studios where some of NBC’s most iconic shows are made like SNL & the Tonight Show and learn what it takes to meet their strenuous shooting schedules every week.
Take home a copy of your talk show and use it to launch your career in show biz (or more likely just show your friends).
