Every year, On Location Tours has managed to serve approximately 100,000 people by providing them with a variety of different tours located throughout the East Coast of America. Each tour can either be experienced by vehicle (in person) or virtually (online), and more or less, they're informative and engaging because they're based on a specific topic or theme connected to the entertainment industry. For instance…
New York Classic Movie Tour

In fact, it's become so popular for filmmakers, that this tour can only show you some of the sights seen on the silver screen. This includes the Empire State Building, which was initially made famous when it appeared in the 1933 classic, 'King Kong', Grand Central Terminal, which was featured in the Alfred Hitchcock thriller, 'North by Northwest', as well as the place Marilyn Monroe's skirt flew up in the air during the Billy Wilder comedy, 'The Seven Year Itch'.

So come on, grab a costume and let's go to nearby Greenwich Village, where we can defend the locals from the mighty warlord, Thanos. Or if you prefer, we can swing by the Statue of Liberty and join forces with Spider-Man so we can fight one of his dastardly enemies. Either way, if you love adventure, then you should get a kick out of this tour because it takes us on a journey that highlights some of the most dramatic moments experienced by some of our favorite heroes (heroes like Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, the Avengers, and Jessica Jones).
