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.

To do absolutely - Great time. Dwayne is on top!! The Harlem tour was punctuated by anecdotes and we learned a lot about NYC and the mores of this city. As for the Gospel, wow, what a magical moment. Great organization, we highly recommend

Holy Harlem! - Tour guide - Peggy, was wonderfully informative and interesting. The tour of Harlem was terrific and gave a real understanding of the area and the changes it has gone through over the years. The church service was amazing!!!! Uplifting and joyful - such a great way to spend the morning!

Gospel Singers Tour of Harlem - The tour guide was exceptional. She told us so much about the area in general and looked after us well. I would have liked to see more gospel singers. We only had three. I had thought we would see a lot more.

Good tour, but expectations need to be calibrated vs how it is promoted - Good tour with an excellent guide who explains the history of Harlem well after the church visit, but two things to note: 1) the service takes place in functional church premises inside a modern office/housing building and not in a traditional beautiful church 2) you get seated so far back that you only partly see the people live and therefore need to watch them on screen

Gospel in the middle class - The guide was fantastic, but the gospel experience itself was somewhat thin. Have tried a similar tour in another church 10 years ago, which was more engaging

Bus tour through Harlem... - Bus tour through Harlem was below expectation as the area is being regenerated, the gospel tour element became very uncomfortable for many of the people on tour when the money collection started in the chapel. Would not recommend.
