The Office Fan Tours, Scranton

UPDATE: I was forwarded this letter from fan tour organizers in August:

Dear Tim,

I just wanted to drop a note and let you know that Tricia and I had a terrific time during the tour. It was exactly what we expected, and we couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide. Please pass our regards on to the group (Andrea especially) — you all made it a terrific experience for us.

As a side note — I proposed to Tricia at a gas station just outside of Scranton on Sunday morning (ala Jim and Pam). She had no idea it was coming, and I think we might make an annual trek back to Scranton to celebrate. Feel free to pass this on to whomever and thanks again.

Regards,
Troy and Tricia

Awwwww. Thanks for sharing your story, Troy and Tricia! Perhaps you’ll consider a Lake Scranton venue or maybe an Office-themed wedding? :)

   Congrats on such an original and unique business model that allows fans to express their love of the office as well as make a pilgrimage to Scranton.
   Been all over the world, but am seriously considering a vacation to scranton, pa to see the office tour.

   The tour was closed when we went, but luckily I planned ahead. Good that we did because we hit a whole bunch of Office places that aren’t on the tour. Ie, Lackawanna Hotel, Glider Diner, and a bunch of cool coffee shops that are sporting Office art. Poor Richards at night was creepy and the bartender was rude. So go in the day if you can. Coopers was cool but make sure you can get a room in the main dining hall and not in the back room because it’s just a normal room. I recommend mapping out the Office spots before going.

   It’s an amazingly fun time! I probably won’t make it up there at all this summer due to increased tour and gas prices. Although, if anyone important (or cast wise) is planning to go, I’ll consider it.

   I can’t wait to go to one of the tours! Does anybody know the dates any of the cast members may be joining the tour?

   I flew in from the UK to attend the december office tour (a nice couple from Australia also were on this tour)so i was hoping that i would not be disappointed after all that travelling and i have to say i wasn’t , Tim, amanda and graham were excellent hosts, and with the food and drinks included it was great value. So any fans should get theirselves over to Scranton- don’t forget your camera as a bonus i found the people of the town really nice and polite.

    Wow, they’re upping the price again! It’s becoming costly but it’s so worth it for as much fun as it is. I see it’s now once a month too. I’m sure I’ll still find myself up there at least once next year.

    If my boyfriend and I were the winners of “The Office Fan Tour Giveaway” the landmark that we would most enjoy seeing would be Lake Scranton as shown in the “Beach Games” episode. This is one of our favorites as it is where Pam was finally able to prove something to herself and stand up to the others.

    If I was the winner of the “The Office Fan Tour Giveaway”, I would be most excited to visit Lake Wallenpaupack because Booze Cruise is one of my all time favorite episodes!!

    If I am the winner of the Office Fan Tour Giveaway, I would be the most excited to visit Poor Richard’s pub because that is a place that the office workers in the show like to hang out at a lot after work and I think it would be interesting to see the place that inspired that.

    If I win “The Office Fan Tour Giveaway”, I would be most excited about seeing Lake Scranton because I love mother nature and its now a tourist location made possible by…my favorite actor B.J. Novak!

    If my fiance and I were to win “The Office Fan Tour Giveaway” it would be a great early honeymoon for us (we get married in July). The sight we’re most excited to see is COOPERS Restaurant which is ironic because my fiance is allergic to shellfish. Please pick us, we’re the LATINO version of Jim & Pam :)

    For The Office Fan Tour Giveaway, I’d want to visit Lake Scranton to see if I could find Andy floating in it.

    If I won The Office Fan Tour Giveaway, I would find the Chili’s restaurant closest to Scranton, then proceed to ask them all about the Dundie awards ceremonies, including a certain crazy receptionist. I would also bring my Dundie with me so my sister and I could act out part of the awards episode – and sing the baby back ribs song. (Is it bad that it would be a dream come true if we were banned for life?) And for those wondering about more “official” Scranton landmarks, I’d make my own drive-by opening credit video sequence for good measure.

    If I won The Office Fan Tour Giveaway I would like to see Lake Wallenpaupack because my favorite episode was the Booze Cruise!
