Itinerary
The gang plans to celebrate Monica and Chandler's engagement with a champagne toast at the Plaza Hotel, one of New York City's most iconic landmarks. However, as with many of their plans, unexpected twists get in the way, and they never actually make it there.
Changler's office where he spends most of the show in a mysterious statistical analysis job that even his friends don't understand
Rachel Green lands a position at Ralph Lauren, marking another major leap in her fashion career. This role places her at one of the most prestigious names in American fashion, where she takes on greater responsibility and grows into a merchandising manager. For Rachel, Ralph Lauren represents the moment her talent and ambition are truly recognized, solidifying her transformation from Central Perk waitress into a confident fashion professional.
The Cherry Hill Fountain in Central Park is often considered an inspiration for the iconic Friends opening credits fountain. While the actual filming took place on a Warner Bros. lot in Los Angeles, the resemblance between the two fountains has led many fans to associate Cherry Hill Fountain with the beloved show. Located in the heart of Central Park, this picturesque spot has become a must-visit for Friends enthusiasts looking to experience a piece of what may have influenced the show's unforgettable intro.
American Museum Of Natural History
Ross works at the museum as a paleontologist. The museum is also the setting for several key moments in the series, most notably the first night that Ross and Rachel spend together. Their romantic evening unfolds in the museum’s planetarium, making it one of the most memorable scenes in their love story.
Central Park
Rachel joins Phoebe for a morning jog in Central Park, only to discover that Phoebe runs like no one else on earth:)

Great tour around Central Park and all things Friends!
Had a great tour with our own Ukrainian Joey Tribiani! He was very friendly, bubbly and knowledgeable about so things Friends. He also showed us plenty of things unrelated to Friends. John Lennons apartment, Only murder in the building apartment etc. Highly recommended.

Friends locations tour and more!!!
“Joey” our guide, not one single word describes how amazing he is or the tour, very friendly and approachable. Not only was it a friends locations tour but turned into a tour around New York and as an added bonus we went to Carrie Bradshaw’s stoop which I’m a huge fan of. I would not think of going with any other tour, we were unsure whether to do the friends experience tour, really glad we didn’t.

“Joey” on the Friends Tour A++
If we could give more than 5 stars we would!! “Joey” was excellent! He was friendly, knowledgeable, had photos and music from the show. He was flexible- told us about other things around - Gossip Girl, OMBT, etc. he took fabulous photos of our family too! Highly recommend!

If you're a Friends fan, this tour is a dream come true!
We saw all the key filming locations, took fun photos in front of the iconic apartment building, and even sang "Smelly Cat" while riding through Central Park on a pedicab! The guide was super friendly and knew tons of behind-the-scenes facts. It was the perfect mix of nostalgia, laughs, and sightseeing. Highly recommend for any fan visiting NYC!
