Entire tour was great. It was exactly the right length and the places we visited and stopped to see were timely and interesting. Our tour guide was outstanding, extemely knowledgeable and informative and kept things moving all the time...she is the primary reason for the five star rating. Church service was really great and congregation was welcoming in every way. Would do it again.

This was a great trip and I would definitely recommend it and if you do make sure you do the brunch at the Cotton Club too, the food was the best we had in NY. Along with the usual touristy things that you would do in NY this, along with Amateur Night at the Apollo were the highlights of the holiday. Robert the tour guide was very informative and very funny too.

this tour was amazing , we were so welcomed by the church we visited and the worship was fabulous. Get booked onto this trip, only negative - would have liked a little longer than an hour at the church to have time to talk / meet the congregation.

Absolutely unbelievable and amazing. This was one of the highlights of our holiday. The bus driver was informative and on our way to Harlem gave us an insight into life in the Bronx and Harlem through the century. The actual church service was uplifting. The "makeshift" choir sang and danced and just inspired everyone. It was a feel good time. Well worth the money and we have recommended it to many friends

The guide makes the tour. Our guide was extremely good. Very knowledgable and entertaining. The tour was a success before we even arrived at the church. The Gospel experience was a bonus.

We went on the Harlem morning gospel tour. it was such an interesting tour. We were taken around Harlem looking at different places like the local muiseum and the Apollo theatre. We then went to the church where the choir sang there were a school group that had come from another part of the state and they also joined in. We were then taken to Sylvias resturant where we all enjoyed a meal of soul food. This tour was very interesting and well worth the money.

Oh my not sure what I expected, but it wasn't what we got, an excellent tour and a chance to share in peoples lives through prayer. The church service was very moving and the Cotton Club where we enjoyed a buffet lunch after was awesome. A great tour which we would do again in a moment. Thank You to all concerned, almost forgot to mention our guide, he was fantastic and very knowledgeable

The Gospel tour was a bit left of field for us but we enjoyed seeing something different. The congregation was lovely and welcoming and the experience of attending a gospel service was something we won't forget. The tour through Harlem was really enjoyable and our guide was hilarious which helped add to a good morning out.

As a believer I felt we were 'the show'. Should have went to the original Harlem Gospel Choir playing in the city and went private to church. Having said that, our guide was informative and fun. There were other sights to see along the way.

Good but we didn't do all that the guide promised, as seing a garden and it felt like the guide only showed us "the good" areas of Harlem, not the different areas.
