Great tour with very knowledgeable guide - I have done this tour before with a friend pre Covid, cant remember if it was the same lady who took us. This is an interesting and well thought out tour. Both times i was taken by a lady who has lived in Harlem all her life ( not by a person just doing a job / reading a script ) and who has seen a lot in the hood / changes etc. The first part is a walking tour of the area. Then we were taken to two jazz events - the first was a concert in a church for a small number of people - very intimate! The second was a bar / venue with different acts every hour - could have stayed all night! The guide knows her stuff both about Harlem the area, who has played and lived there and the varied jazz scene and took good care of us. Dont miss it, very very interesting tour - twice

The best experience ever - It was the best touristic experience ever. You have to ring the bell, and nice lady will invite you in the apartment. Then we met our wonderful guide lady Doris. We were group of 8 people in total, we walked on the streets of Harlem and learned a lot. Finally we entered to the Club, we had a feeling like we are in some movie 100 years ago. Musicians were great, we felt like at home, everybody were friendly and beautiful. This is a unique thing!

Quite A Rewarding Evening - The entire experience was very rewarding. Doris, our guide was very knowledge and a wealth of information. Seeing the rich history of Harlem was enjoyable and very fulfilling. Ending the night at the jazz club was great. We will visit again during warming weather and consider additional tours.

A taste of jazz in Harlem - Felt like an authentic experience. The concert was held in a lovely church and the sound was pretty good. The singers had great voices and the music was quite interesting.

Experience a walking tour of Harlem - Doris gave us a great walking tour of Harlem. It was interesting to hear where well known famous people lived and worked. We ended up at a small friendly garage club.

Not so much - We expected more focus on music. First venue was not expecting us. They scrambled for chairs. As no good was going to be provided on the tour we rushed and ate before only to find a light dinner was provided. Would not recommend this tour.
