Here's their hype:
"THE RIDE takes everything that makes New York, New York and kicks it into overdrive.
Riders will board THE RIDE, a super-sized, technologically amped up vehicle that travels the streets of New York. With stadium-style, sideways seating and massive windows, Riders have front row seats to the big city.
You never know what you’ll see or who you’ll meet along the 4.2-mile route. No matter how many times you take THE RIDE, it’s never the same show twice.
From Grand Central to Central Park, THE RIDE provides a look at New York and its people in a way that you’ve never seen before. You’ll laugh, you’ll be wowed, you might even learn something."

"Taking this bus was like throwing money out the window. This isn't an experience. Here's a better idea, get a walking guide and walk the city. You'll see many more sites and many more interactive characters than on this bus ride. The few facts about NYC I learned were not anything special. You're better off taking a real walking tour of NYC with someone who knows the history of the city and isn't an actor pretending to be a Columbia Graduate. Thumbs down."

"I had a fantastic time on "The Ride" The tour guide actors were fantastic as well as the star of the show "The Ride" Thats what he likes to be called. I dont want to spoil all the fun but it is highly interactive. I am a native New Yorker and have taken tours here in there. I expected to have a well informed tour of the but I never expected all the fun. You don't know me bt please treus me with this recommendation, if your going to take a bus tour or want a fun evening definately or want both ask "The Ride" if you can come aboard. PS - I think Scott and Jackie like each other. Take the tour you'll understand."
