Fancy discovering Harlem like never before? This tour (available in several languages) isn’t your typical sightseeing tour; it’s a total immersion in one of New York’s most authentic and vibrant neighbourhoods. Imagine strolling through its streets, soaking up its energy and finishing with a gospel service that’ll give you goosebumps. Sounds good, doesn’t it?

Here’s how it works: you’ll board a comfortable private coach leaving from Manhattan in the morning – the perfect way to get the day off to a flying start. The tour lasts around 4 hours and, once you arrive in Harlem, you’ll complete part of the tour on foot – so you can experience the neighbourhood to the full!

Discover Harlem with a local guide who knows the area inside out: there’s no one better than a local to show you its hidden corners and tell you its stories. Get to know the people of Harlem up close and feel the neighbourhood’s true rhythm.

Immerse yourself in a gospel service: experience the music and spirit of Harlem just like a local – an experience not to be missed!
Admire the Apollo Theatre and the Theresa Hotel on 125th Street.
Discover Harlem’s most popular spots: City College, Morningside Heights, Sugar Hill, the Morris Jumel Mansion and Sylvan Terrace, amongst others.
Learn at the Schomburg Centre for Research in Black Culture, one of the largest libraries dedicated to African-American culture.

Get ready for a morning full of surprises as you explore Harlem at its best. You'll depart Manhattan early in the morning (690 8th Avenue between 43rd and 44th Streets) in a comfortable bus, ready to immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of this iconic neighbourhood.

Once there, you'll stroll the streets and feel the daily rhythm of the neighbourhood. Your expert guide will tell you fascinating stories and take you to the most emblematic spots. Among them, you'll discover the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, a place full of inspiring stories about the African-American experience and its impact on the civil rights struggle.

But that's not all, you'll also walk through the Apollo Theatre, where stars like Ella Fitzgerald and Michael Jackson made their mark. Can you imagine the thrill of being in such a historic place?

The highlight of the morning will be attending a gospel mass. If you've never experienced anything like this, be prepared to be part of a soul-stirring experience filled with music and passion.

Before heading back, don't miss the atmosphere of the streets of Harlem, with its markets, murals and the welcoming spirit of its people. This is your chance to see a side of New York that few tourists see.

It was excellent when I saw that people in wheelchairs could attend, I was able to take my mother with me and she was super excited about the tour, we had a wonderful time. But I recommend to let them know from the beginning if you are taking someone in a wheelchair so that there are no inconveniences afterwards.
