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.” 10 minutes

My tour was absolutely horrid. Worst experience of my life. This was not a Sex and the City tour. Tour guide and only referenced the show a little bit and kept talking about Trump. This was not a Trump tour. You should not over charge people for matching the person with a tour guide that know absolute zero about the tour. We ended up cutting the tour short and the guide had the audacity to ask for a tip.

My best friend and I have been looking forward to this trip to the city and the tour for some time. Our guide Monia Bonaldo was absolutely perfecto! She kept in contact letting us know exactly what to expect and where to meet. She informed us of things the actual Viator site DID NOT eg. Walking tour. Also you do have to pay a minimal fee for subway to certain area. Monia made our tour amazing. Her knowledge of the city and all the extras made for a wonderful day. She is someone I would like to be friends with in my every day life. I wish her the best and would request her for another tour....
