Exciting and good value for money. - We thought we “only” had to go for GOD, but EN got a guided bus tour in Harlem with a very knowledgeable and dedicated guide. Very exciting and relevant.

The Perfect Complement to the NYC Day Tour - The Tour Guide was exceptional. I appreciated her respect for the Harlem Community as well as her knowledge about the community. I was also impressed with her fluidity with both the French and English languages and alternating which she spoke first. Her respect for the African American church we attended is to be highly commended. We enjoyed both the NYC day tour as well as this one. Together they provide a more complete picture of the city. Your company might consider packaging the two tours. Also it might prove beneficial to approach some larger African American congregations with balconies about partnering with your Sunday tours.

Highly recommended! - A very enthusiastic guide who lives in Harlem could give a lot of daily life info. Well organized with stops by bus and a nice reception in the church for a gospel service. Definitely recommended if you are in New York.

Great Experience of Gospel - We started our tour in the heart of NYC where we hopped on the bus and from the first moment we arrived our tour guide Peggy was amazing, full of joy and very knowledgeable to the areas of NYC. Our tour continued exploring the area of Harlem where we attended a Gospel service in which was just epic. Would highly recommend this tour

Harlem and Gospel on top - We learned a lot about Harlem from our guide, in French. The Gospel Mass was typical. Welcoming pastor. Recommended.

Gospel in May - Very nice tour , the guide very well read and much more information about Harlem than expected, nice spots and info about famous people living / living in Harlem. A little time in the church and not the hallelujah moment that I wanted but still very nice. Sat in the gallery in the church. Very good luck, the bus picked up and left in time square. Overall great (some gospel music though)

Pretty good Harlem Tour - Good tour, welcoming church. No photos allowed naturally during the service. Very knowledgeable tour guide, however on the listing it mentions to pay extra to join for lunch, this didn’t happen? Overall a good way to spend 3hrs out of the city & rest your tired feet.

Watch out! You will not be treated with respect! - Dealing with this organization was as bad a travel experience as I've ever had. My friend and I showed up at the address we were given at 3 minutes after the announced departure. Yes, we were late, but only three minutes. And there was no one there, no message from them asking us where we were, and no response when we called to find out how we could take the subway BACK uptown (we live in Harlem!), and join the tour. When I finally heard back from them, after CONSIDERABLE back and forth, they agreed to refund my $170, IN WRITING, in email, and then....nothing. They just disappeared. I have written them repeatedly, from abroad, to ask them to follow through on their promise to refund the money. Nothing. Ever. Be really wary with this company. My money is GONE, but yours doesn't need to be.
