Mémorable tour of Harlem!

Published on Dec, 2024

Tour guide, pickup, sites of interest, value, transportation, etc, all aspects of the tour were beyond expectations! But of course the Gospel show was the ultimate goal and that was a success that we will long remember. We would not hesitate to recommand this tour. The lady who commented the tour did an excellent job switching from French to Italian, and providing insights to Harlem City and its history.

Must DO in New York!

Duane is a superb guide, he really brought the group together, he is widely travelled and so knowledgeable. The bus tour of Harlem followed by a visit to the church to hear the choir was probably the highlight of the holiday.

Excellent

The heart of Harlem

Published on Sep, 2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our informative tour of Harlem and most especially, the moving and inspiring performance of the Harlem Gospel Choir. Led by their pastor, they are an extremely talented group, and we take this opportunity to wish them well. Special thanks to our wonderful guide for a fantastic and insightful tour.
