Overview
We loved this! You need to book this online before you go. The guy we had was very knowledgeable and informative. He walked the group around for over 2 hours, pointing out buildings of note, murals and also where buildings once had been. He talked to us about Harlem's history, music, culture, struggles, food etc. It's a free tour and at the end you tip what you feel it's worth. Most people seemed to tip around the $20 mark. Would definitely recommend this to others.
Transport & Parking
Not sure as we walked here from our hotel.
Access
You're basically just going round the streets and stopping outside buildings, so the access was grand. No steps to worry about and the pavements had plenty of dips.
Toilets
Staff
I had called ahead before I booked on line to make sure it was suitable for wheelchair users and the girl was very helpful, contacting the tour guide to double check and getting back to me quickly. The tour guide was great, he really knew his stuff!!
Anything else you wish to tell us?
Great way to learn more about the area of Harlem. This was the walking tour and last just over 2 hours, they also do a gospel tour on a Sunday, however I'm not sure if that's accessible.
