The Ride NYC was a 10/10 experience! From the time we check in to pick up location, to departure, the experience was amazing! We were celebrating my daughter's sweet sixteen birthday, and they made her feel so special with their personal shout outs! Scott and Jackie were fun. The entertainment on the streets was awesome also. I would recommend this experience to all my friends and family! Will ride again in the future if I get the opportunity to come back to NYC!

A fun and entertains way to see Midtown NYC. The hosts were very good and had a lot of jokes. We did have to wait about 30 minutes because our bus was full, even though we purchased tickets in advance. It is a little pricey- I went as part of a university group so it was less, but I wouldn’t recommend just going independently, as there are better things to do and ways to see the city.

Two girls are the diamonds of this bus ride. They entertain you throughout with ease n laughter. Night tour with RIDE is cool. They have road performances like rapper n singer guitarist ballet etc. on the whole it’s cool. But not a must do like
Did this tour as apart of long 4-day weekend trip to NYC from Portland for our Daughter's 19th b-day.

Great fun, albeit a bit kitschy and lots of dad jokes, even my daughter laughed at them

- it's kinda of a comedy club on wheels with interactive street performers while informational tour of the city.
Do not open account with Barstool Sportsbook. I’ve been waiting for money from my winnings and it’s over two weeks now they don’t answer their phones and I cannot get my money. Beware.
What a great entertainment company! Cayla was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Our entertainer for party games was Cyan and she was full of energy. All the kids loved her! She really knew how to get a crowds attention. Our face painter Maggie was a true gem. She is so talented with all of her artistry skills with paint and I cannot rave about her enough. Thank you Bazinga for an excellent party!

We went on the 7.45 ride tonight with our teenagers. The bus was easy to find and punctual. All the staff/performers were brilliant and we’d recommend this attraction to anyone visiting the area. It’s engaging and even got our teenagers laughing, which is a challenge these days. 10/10. Well done guys.
We had Teo facilitate activities with our kiddos. She was engaging and attentive, sweet and joyful. Our adults enjoyed watching our kiddos have fun in friendly competition. Thank you for your kindness!

This was one of the best days my son has ever had because of the staff from THE RIDE. Make sure to mention your special requests or birthdays and such when booking. They incorporated that information into clever ways and made the whole experience very personalized. The tour is the best way to see the big apple time square area and surrounding burrows. 100% recommend this experience.
Natalie was fantastic! Easy booking with Bazinga Parties - they were very clear a week prior to the event with information and contact info 24 hours before. It went off so smoothly for my 3 year old daughter's birthday party -- all the kids were thrilled at their special balloon animals or whichever kind of shape. Natalie is very talented and a pleasure to work with! They also do face painting, magic shows etc.
Rate Zero. Kiss your money goodbye. I deposited $1200 for superbowl Feb/2023. Couldn’t gamble because I wasn’t in Louisiana. So I’ve been trying to get refund since. Put off with excuses weekly.. This is a SCAM!!!!

Hey Portnoy fans we need to get the prez ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Run it up boys!
The most professional casting agency in NYC. They have the best shows, productions to work for and give the best opportunity to succeed in the industry as a BG/Stand-in. I would recommend this professional business to anyone. If only all the casting agencies in NY ran this well.
Great service and entertainment. I had Emily doing face painting and slime for my 3 year old daughter birthday. She was great with all kids (which is a difficult age to maintain the engaged)- the face designs were gorgeous and the slime activity was very fun for both kids and parents (given the age parents had to help)- then she did some dance games that the kids loved. Everyone had an amazing time and lots of fun.
Thanks for the wonderful party! Sarah did an amazing job painting faces- all the kids were super happy! Cayla was also super flexible when I needed to make changes to our reservation. Thank you!

Going to give them five stars. Wi-Fi Stars well because so far they seem to be a fun place to work for in Paladino casting has done some of the best commercials so far in the city and around the world I take it. But until I get some work for them and I actually get to meet and greet folks I cannot really say so at this point five stars if it went in the future I don't get work or if I get work and it doesn't work out well then we'll go from there but at this point. I have nothing but love for them have a great day continue to hit that subscribe button and like like thank you and have a great day bye.
I started my p/t background acting career with Central Casting back in late 2012 and I’m happy to be back on the roster in 2023. If you’re looking to start out in the industry, book your appointment.
Wonderful service! From start to finish! Cayla was great, setting everything up before my 5 year old's bday party. Emelia is truly an artist with the face painting and Natalie made the most amazing balloon designs ever! They were wonderful with the children, so friendly and animated! The kids had so much fun!
I cannot recommend Bazinga Parties enough! Five stars for sure!!!
The agency is on the second floor and you will need to sign in to visit. As a fan it was cool to be in the lobby, however, you won't be able to roam around nor do they have a shop. The ladies at the desk were nice and we sat and chatted for about 10-15 minutes. They mentioned that I was normal compared to the other people that visit, so they must get a lot of fans that can't tell reality from entertainment and just act weird.
Maggie was amazing!!! She’s a lovely person and did impressive designs on the kids. The balloons were incredible too. Overall a great job, we totally recommend.
We have loved our experience with Bazinga, two years in a row! We had Natalie this year and she was AMAZING with the kids. Recommend 100%! Thank you for making my 6 year old happy on her special day.

Always honest and helpful. Never a bad experience. Professional and easy to work with. Great gigs!
I am a fan of Central Casting and feel very thankful for the opportunities they provide. I cannot say enough good things about their company, the employees, and the productions they represent. It’s a very exciting industry, a lot of hard work, and opportunities for everyone if you love it and stay devoted. I am grateful for their professionalism and the amazing productions they represent.
This place is a dump.big cat has puke on his pants. Frankie's recording everybody. Portnoy swearing like a sailor. Birches running around top less. Smells like teen spirit and apizza and cigars. Betting even little leauge cu there's no fix there yet. Alright bet I'm in heaven!!!
Don’t waste your time. You are treated horribly on set most of the time. You might not eat lunch till 4PM after being there since 7AM. Call times can be at 5AM then staying till past 10PM having to be there at 5AM again. The PAs are not nice most of the time. Very unorganized direction. They basically pay you below minimum wage at $165 for 10 hours of work. RUN away you will not be famous. You can get experience using another agency. They are rude and get in trouble by the union all the time on sets they send you to. They don’t care how you’re treated on set. They have you being outside in freezing temperatures and hot temps not caring. Even the Union people complain about this agency.
Central casting is very professional and a pleasure to work on television and film projects.
I would highly recommend registering with Central Casting. I was upgraded to a principal role after working on a television show that Central casting originally booked me for in 2022 It was a great experience. Thank you Central Casting! 😘💕Best, Scottie DiGiacomo
The HQ is pretty lit but not sure why their employees kick out a black man while spewing racial slurs so I'm taking off a few points.
Registering here was very easy. They tell you to expect to be there for 2hrs, but I was out in 45 minutes. Come prepared to fill out standard employment paperwork and take a basic photo (full body or headshot).
Thanks for that SAG-AFTRA zoom session, Rachel Reiss!
Such friendly employees, from the lobby to the HR were exceptionally professional. The process took about an hour. First, you will show your Vaccination card if you have one. Second you’ll present all the required documents. Third, fill out the form. And lastly, they’ll take your profile photo. That’s it)
Ordered a sweatshirt from this company online. So cheap it ran small, but my son still wanted it in a larger size. They would not exchange it. Not a reason in the world not to exchange it. Will never buy from them again. Would not recommend them to anyone.

Discusses diversity and being inclusive to POC but is notably white-washed and ignorant. Biased in a lot of their castings making preference over light skin POC or those of Asian descent having wider eyes and no monolids. Incredibly distasteful.

Discriminates by asking for an Asian role to have "Skin tone: Clean, white and pinky. No dots or circles. Eyes: Although almond-shape, not too down turned eyes. No monolid."
Although I love their work, I was not welcomed warmly to their establishment and we were (rudely) told to leave. The merchandise is on display, but not eligible for purchase. After leaving, I get that it's not meant to be a store, but with the merch they advertise and how big Barstool has gotten, it would be worth their while open a small shop for tourists like myself. After that experience, I don't know if supporting this company is worthwhile after being such a loyal listener.
