Really interesting experience, especially when I thought of my first visit to New York as a student in the '70s and was told categorically not to venture near Harlem! Stunning architecture and a great guide. Singing was amazing.

The Sunday Gospel Tour was just great. Our guide explained a lot of history and showed us a part of Harlem. The church was very impressive, nice people and beautiful music! And don't miss the Cotton Club afterwards -- a tasty meal buffet and great musicians.

The church service was amazing. So glad we booked it. However, we also loved the tour around Harlem. Well worth seeing.

All the churchgoers were excellent. They were friendly and welcoming. We were sad to leave. Too bad the church had so few attending, but the Minister and choir really belted out the songs.

Experience this culture even if you are not religious. Very uplifting.

A great experience that I would definitely do again and again. The tour guide was great. Just one thing: make sure to ask at the voucher desk about the correct coach for those adding the brunch. The Cotton Club was well worth visiting for the food and entertainment. Could have spent longer there than the one hour.

We made a Harlem Gospel Brunch Tour, which was worth every cent and more all the way. We had the most wonderful guide, who actually lives in Harlem and knew a lot about it, and was very much interested in its history. The Gospel service was quite an experience, albeit rather a noisy one. The Gospel Brunch with live music at the Cotton Club was a perfect way of wrapping up the afternoon. Definitely recommendable! Next time we come over, we're definitely going to take one or more of the great variety of tours you offer! Thank you so much!

What a revelation. Our host was superb. She had great stories about the past and plenty of information on all the locations we visited. The visit to the church was sensational and you certainly get caught up in the enthusiasm of the occasion. The tour gives you the opportunity to see Harlem in a different light and was well worth the time.

This was our second trip to experience the Harlem spirituals in seven months. Both trips were very nice. We had a different tour guide on both trips, and they were in many ways completely different, but both trips were magnificent. Next time we will go again.
