And just like that… the Sex and the City bus tour is back

Anonim

If you are up to date with the chapters of the Serie And Just Like That , you already know –and, if not, stop reading because here is a spoiler– that Carrie Bradshow (Sarah Jessica Parker) has returned to her old apartment, the one that in fiction is on the Upper East Side, but whose real location is located in Greenwich Village. But she has not done it alone, since the Sex and the City bus tour she returns to make a forced stop in front of the red brick house that she visits every day the protagonist returned full of emotions that she would later share in the form of opinion columns.

Of those stories that addressed different social problems, only the memory remains. Samantha Jones's (Kim Cattrall) shadow is elongated. Patricia Field (and her outfits) is still with Emily in Paris. Y a character that we said goodbye with sorrow in the first chapter he has just been erased from the season finale for various accusations of sexual abuse.

So better focus on the positive: the most popular bus route of the SATC era walks the streets of New York City again, and he does so by adding nods to the sequel.

AND SO, WITHOUT MORE, THESE ARE SOME PLACES

The daily tour, which starts near Fifth Avenue and 58th Street, lasts three and a half hours, includes over 40 locations from the series and movies Sex and the City and is enlivened by a local actress who is in charge of asking questions and telling curiosities about the scenes shot in each of the locations her (she is $66 and, if private, $135 per person).

In the center of Manhattan you will pass by the New York Public Library – not an altar – where Carrie, dressed as a bride, stamps the bouquet of flowers in the face of her future husband; by the exact spot where Mr. Big (Chris Noth) and Natasha (Bridget Moynahan) got engaged –The Plaza Hotel– and in front of the 'little church around the corner', the house of God and of the friar that Samantha wanted to conquer in the chapter The Agony and the Ex'tacy.

You will also visit places and restaurants whose fame has gone beyond the screen, such as the modern Buddhakan, in chelsea, where Carrie and Mr. Big's engagement party was held; Los Dados, the (now closed) Mexican in the Meatpacking District where a blind date stood up columnist o the famous Magnolia Bakery, the west village bakery whose sweets served as colorful props for the confessions between Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Carrie for a few minutes and who, since then, have been dyeing the walls of Instagram in pastel color of the most fanatic.

And will there be cosmos? of course at the bar Scout , by Steve (David Eigenberg) and Aidan (John Corbett), a pub in Little Italy that is actually called Oneal's and that, to this day, he still continues to evoke this feeling with his aesthetic: “There were no signs of him, but he was everywhere. At the mahogany bar, the wooden floor, the carved ceiling. The whole place looked and felt like Aidan.".

On the question of whether the bus will now take you to downtown to dazzle you with its views (and its relentless light), we recommend that you book a place and discover it in person.
