If she quotes lines from her favorite shows and can navigate Manhattan by episodes alone, this is the Christmas gift that actually lands: a New York City movie and TV show location tour paired with a romantic NYC hotel stay.
It’s personal, experiential, and ridiculously fun to share.
With Wonderbox, you can wrap the adventure now and plan the details later, so your “TV fan meets NYC” surprise is as effortless as it is memorable.
Why NYC location tours are a perfect Christmas gift for her
- It’s a story you live together. Not just watching a show but standing where it was filmed.
- Low-stress and high-flex. Tickets and hotel nights are booked online with a voucher when her schedule is clear.
- Totally customizable. Pick one tour or stack a few, then add a one-night New York stay to make a full weekend.
- Photo gold. Iconic stops mean instant “remember when…” moments.
Your curated tour lineup (with easy gifting)
Gossip Girl Sites Tour — $69.00 (for 1 person)
Explore filming spots from both the original and the reboot. Think elegant uptown façades and chic midtown landmarks associated with the Upper East Side universe. Perfect for fans who still say “meet me on the steps.”
Sex and the City Hotspots Tour — $69.00 (for 1 person)
Trace the glam trail of Carrie and the crew through stylish neighborhoods, boutiques, and famous scenes connected to the series and And Just Like That. Expect West Village charm, downtown nightlife vibes, and plenty of selfie stops.
Sopranos Sites Tour — $79.00 (for 1 person)
Cross the river to see New Jersey filming locations tied to the iconic series. A cult-classic gift for anyone who quotes the theme song or debates the finale. Great add-on for couples who want something beyond the usual Manhattan circuit.
Stackable idea: gift two tours for back-to-back fandom days, or do one tour and save the other for your next visit.
Iconic NYC filming areas to hit between tours
- Grand Central Terminal: an opening-episode legend and the backdrop to countless scenes.
- The Met Steps & Fifth Avenue: fashion-forward facades and classic Upper East Side energy.
- Central Park/Bethesda Terrace: bridges, arches, and skyline views used across rom-coms and series.
- The Plaza Hotel & Midtown landmarks: luxe exteriors you’ve seen on screen a hundred times.
- West Village & SoHo: tree-lined streets, brownstones, and cafés with unmistakeable TV nostalgia.
- Meatpacking District & Chelsea: night-out aesthetics, converted warehouses, and high-style vibes.
Tip: build your own “scene list” in Notes and check them off as you go.
