Ludie was an excellent storyteller talking about the history of Harlem and early New York history. We really enjoyed her approach of singing and her explanation of gospel music. I would recommend this tour to anyone who would like to learn more about the history of Harlem and gospel singing. It was a very informative tour.

Our Quide was totally great but the experience in church was so short that we did not feel Harlem soul so much. But actually I generally recommend this tour.

The actual church part was great. The bus tour with limited views was boring and went way too long. Better to spend more time at the church than pay a fortune for the padding either side of the church visit. When we did stop to look at a site it was drop dead boring.

Very good organised small group with great guide. Highlight of the tour was the Gospel Choir as well as the short stop at the legendary Apollo Theatre.

Very interesting tour of a part of the City that's off beat, but well worth visiting. Harlem has a lot of history and the Gospel part is a unique flavor of the area.
