I was disappointed: Our guide was unwell and although we hopped off the coach to take pics 10 Mins St. Patrick's, Apollo etc I would not decribe the experience as a walking tour. Tour returned half hour earlier than expected. Service was good but it was a pity that another guide could not have been found.

Did this some time ago but still have great memories. A must to sample the real New York.

inoubliable tour avec guide française, fumeuse comme un pompier mais avec pleins d'anecdotes racontées. echanger le voucher avant la date du tour. point de rencontre, transport impeccables....surtout qu'il faisait -8...

Loved the church we went to and our guide was really nice and told us all kind of stuff about Harlem and New York. Loved the experience!

The tour was okay but I think I would not book it again. We only ride the bus to the Gospel Church with a really really short stop at the Apollo Theatre. There was NO walking tour of residential sections as told!_br/_ Also I expected a Gospel Choir but I think that was my fault. At the gospel church of course were gospel singers but the instruments have been so loud that the charme of the gospel singers got lost - but I think I had a wrong imagination

Excellent tour. The walking tour was interesting and the church service inspiring! Thoroughly recommend.

This was a fun Sunday morning. Our tour guide unfortunately I can't remember his name was terrific and even had the entire bus singing along with him to Frank Sinatra tunes. We enjoyed the tour of Harlem and the visit to the church gave us a good glimpse of gospel singing. The people at the church were most welcoming and friendly... I am not a church goer but this experience was very nice. I would recommend this tour.

The singing and the service was not very professional, but the sincerity of the people made up for it. Totally enjoyed the service and being with such beautiful people that were so sincere in their faith.

Good tour but a little disorganised at boarding
Review by: Carol P, October 2017
Great tour - I thought it was just a church service but was pleasantly surprised to get an informative funny quirky tour of New York and an incredible 1 hour spectacular- the pastor , the congregation and the choir was straight out of “COMING TO AMERICA “ - you have got to see it to believe it.

While it was good, I was expecting more. The Gospel music was more shouting than gospel for me._br/_ Yet the brunch at the Cotton Club was quite enjoyable.

The tour is ok. But the gospel music at the church was not good at all. Especially the acoustics were terrible, the music very very loud. Have seen much better in previous visits to Harlem.

Funny and entertaining. Nice to see how people of Harlem really live their religion with passion and devotion.

Great to see Harlem to tick it off the list. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and pointed out some great sites along the way. The time at Church was a good amount not too long.

I really enjoyed this morning tour. The guide was kind and knowledgeable. Harlem experience was very good as well as the gospel experience. I would have expected more stops in Harlem. We had only one stop!!!! The gospel/church experience was really good albeit short. The church managers requested that we leave the church at a certain point. Would be good if the tour organizers find well in advance what the church protocol is. Thanks very much.

This tour was so disapponting and a waste of money. The guide was very knowledgable and decent. However, the tour of Harlem included 2 stops and very little exploring. The church was cute and the congregation friendly. However, the choir consisted of 3 people and very average singing. Not at all the Gospel Choir we expected. I would certainly not reccommend this tour to anyone who is expecting a memoriable musical experience.

This tour Is a wonderful way to see Harlem and get the feel for the roots of Gospel Music. The only improvement would be brunch a better more known restaurant in Harlem. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Harlem and it's many changes thru the years.
