his was a great tour and I learned a lot. I would highly recommend it . I really wish that I could have taken the Niagara falls NY and Canada sections of this railroad, but they are requiring that you sign up for two people when you register.

Very comprehensive tour. The guide was well informed and enlightening. I will surely recommend this tour to friends and family living outside of New York City as well as NYC residents. Wonderful!

There was quite a big group of use. I don't know the tour guide's name. I am not sure he told us. He certainly knew his stuff. And it was moving and humbling to here how badly people were treated. However, he walked fast and had no flag or anything for us to follow. So I nearly lost the group at one time. That slightly spoiled it for me.

I am not sure of the tour guide's name. He may have told us but it didn't sink in. He knew his stuff and told us some moving stories and the history was fascinating. _br/_ It was very busy walking around, he walked fast and it was difficult to follow him, and I was on my own and didn't know anyone in the group. At one stage I nearly lost the group.

I had no idea that New York offered so much to learn about Slavery and the Underground Railway. This was fantastic!! My guide Ludi was sensational!! Her knowledge was endless and her passion for the subject and it's importance was beyond measure!!!!! I am so glad I participated in this!! And I'm not posting any pictures because as I explained to family and friends - I only took a couple of pics as I was too busy listening and learning.

Amazing tour. Our tour guide, Lolita, was full of knowledge and shared it with our group. Be aware that there is a lot of walkingon this tour. Fascinating and sad part of our history that we don't learn in school.opens the door to more exploring of the area.

Very informational, about the NY history and how it played a part in that era of history.

The guide was great! Very knowledgeable, answered all the questions thoroughly. No complaints there. I found the tour to be slightly overpriced. It is easily a tour that can be done by one doing his or her own research about the area and making the stops on his or her own time. I did enjoy the African Burial Ground at the end.

This tour provided such an interesting way to view NYC's history. The guide had his master's degree in the field, so he was very knowledgable. He was able to field all questions posed with ease. Despite the blistering heat, this tour was phenomenal!

Our tour guide Ludi was amazing. Her energy and passion for the information was phenomenal! We all learned so much more than we thought possible. We especially liked the Underground Railroad oyster bar location. I've known about slaves,,my whole life, but hearing how they were treated in a more detailed way, helps ,me appreciate my life all the more._br/_
Thank you for having this tour available. Everyone should take this tour, regardless of race.

This was a very interesting tour. The tour guide Sean made it very interesting especially as it was a difficult subject.

This tour was most informative. The guide had a voice that everyone could clearly hear above the traffic. He did not walk too quickly. I would recommend this tour to Antonella interested in slavery.
