Sex and the City Tour Locations

The Sex and the City Tour takes a total of 3.5 hours and stops at different locations with over 40 points of interest along the route. Knowing a little bit about the scenes and the plotline can come in quite handy, so good if you have watched it. If you have never seen the show, this tour is still fun to do!

The Plaza Hotel and Fifth Avenue

The Sex and the City Tour starts in front of Bergdorf Goodman on Fifth Avenue and 58th Street near the Pulitzer Fountain and the famous Plaza Hotel (yes, where Carrie’s true love Big celebrated his engagement to Natasha). Make sure you arrive at least 10 minutes early for a good spot on the bus. Show your tickets to the guide and find a seat on the bus.

After the guide has introduced herself (mostly young women who are in the film or theatre industry), you will drive down the splendour of Fifth Avenue towards the first stop. The guide will tell you all about the film locations, some fun behind-the-scenes facts and set the scenes along the way.

Carrie Bradshaw’s house

Indulge yourself in the lives of the four women as you walk by Carrie Bradshaw’s apartment, the famous brownstone house in West Village. You’ll get time to shop on the cute Bleecker Street, where you can get a cupcake at the famous Magnolia Bakery.

Cosmos at Scout

The last stop of the tour will take you to “Scout”, which Steve and Aidan opened together. The bar is actually called Onieal’s. The inside of the bar looks exactly like you’d remember from Sex and the City. And, of course, the cosmopolitans are ready and waiting at the bar. The cocktails are unfortunately not free, but for $19 you can enjoy a cosmopolitan just like Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte did.

Eric’s Tip: “The tour usually lasts from 15:00 until 18:30, but due to traffic, the tour can end a bit later. Unless you’d like to buy a cupcake at Magnolia Bakery, I suggest you bring water and a snack for yourself.”
