Gospel was Good - I really enjoyed the tour. I felt an overwhelming sense of emotion when the singing first started. I would have liked some more storytelling on a personal level though. It was good, but also felt a little bit of “just going through the motions”.

AMAZING Gospel Singers!Wished tour was more informative! - The Harlem Gospel Ensemble was outstanding!!!! It’s worth the tour to hear them. I was hoping to hear about the role Harlem played in the Arts - guide just pointed out some buildings. Stopped in front of the Apollo - nothing about its history. Could only see 3 names on the walk of fame. Was under construction. Nothing to see! Kind of a questionable neighborhood to be let out for 15 minutes. Gospel Choir - AMAZING 5+ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Guide - 2 ⭐️⭐️ Tell me about the culture of Harlem in its heyday and how it’s still alive today in the culture of America!

No one at the meeting point - Simple we were not welcomed by anyone at the meeting point! We received a message with a new address (opposite Harlem Hospital) to be taken care of and ultimately still no one ....
