Fantastic, I learned a lot, the guide was very knowledgeable!! Would def recommend this tour to others!

Of all the things we did on our honeymoon in New York, this is one of the things that we will remember the most. Starting off with a walk up to the iconic Apollo theatre, we received a running commentary of the history of Harlem and some of the world-changing individuals who have resided and visited there. After that, we got a taxi to Patrick’s, where we saw a live jazz band, which was absolutely incredible. The music was great, and we were made to feel genuinely welcome by both the band and the hosts. If you’re looking for something a bit different, away from the frantic bustle of Times Square, then this is the tour for you.

This is the perfect way to see a few of Harlem's many historical places and enjoy great live jazz. We want to go again!

It wasn't really a jazz tour we walked around for the first 50 mins with Harlems history that was fantastic. End at a bar for the next 2 hours
