Highly recommended! - A very enthusiastic guide who lives in Harlem could give a lot of daily life info. Well organized with stops by bus and a nice reception in the church for a gospel service. Definitely recommended if you are in New York.

Great Experience of Gospel - We started our tour in the heart of NYC where we hopped on the bus and from the first moment we arrived our tour guide Peggy was amazing, full of joy and very knowledgeable to the areas of NYC. Our tour continued exploring the area of Harlem where we attended a Gospel service in which was just epic. Would highly recommend this tour

Harlem and Gospel on top - We learned a lot about Harlem from our guide, in French. The Gospel Mass was typical. Welcoming pastor. Recommended.

This was a great tour -... - This was a great tour - the tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting! We could have skipped the walk (in pouring rain) to see George Washington's house - but the gospel service was fantastic. The music was so uplifting, and we felt totally welcome by everyone int he church...

this was an excellent... - this was an excellent tour with the first part describing the history of Harlem - explained very clearly and at a great pace by Alvin (our tour guide). The second part of the tour was the service which was fun, engaging at times quite moving.

Gospel in May - Very nice tour , the guide very well read and much more information about Harlem than expected, nice spots and info about famous people living / living in Harlem. A little time in the church and not the hallelujah moment that I wanted but still very nice. Sat in the gallery in the church. Very good luck, the bus picked up and left in time square. Overall great (some gospel music though)

Pretty good Harlem Tour - Good tour, welcoming church. No photos allowed naturally during the service. Very knowledgeable tour guide, however on the listing it mentions to pay extra to join for lunch, this didn’t happen? Overall a good way to spend 3hrs out of the city & rest your tired feet.
