Unfortunately I wasted time. I came to pick up point to see the place is non existent- refurbishing. There was a man sitting next by so I asked about the place and tour . It was tour operator who was surprised there is a tour. All in all - no tour, money returned by Viator quickly but time wasted and did not see Harlem the way I expected

We loved this tour and our tour guide Neal was great. Lots of history presented in a fun and interesting way. Plus, our tour ran into two interesting local celebrities. Our tour guide knew them, introduced them, told us about their cultural contribution to Harlem, and wove their personal histories into the overall history of Harlem. It was fabulous. As a side bonus, we each had some really great red velvet cake from a local cake shop - very tasty.

This was a fantastic tour - really interesting, relevant and told in a very personal way by Neil, who is clearly well embedded in the community and has a deep understanding of its history.
