Your guide will share fascinating anecdotes about this culturally rich Manhattan neighborhood that was home to such great African American figures as Marcus Garvey, Zora Neale Hurston, Duke Ellington, Josephine Baker, W. E. B. Du Bois, Louis Armstrong, Langston Hughes, and Malcolm X. Take this fun bus tour of Harlem to gain a deep understanding of the neighborhood and its magnificent architecture and rich history. We’ll pass by iconic landmarks.
We’ll then enter one of the multitudes of churches with lively congregations that are vital to the community. You’ll be welcomed by a choir and submerged in the energy and fervor that emanates from their powerful songs. When all the voices of the gospel choir come together, something beautiful and transcendent happens. We will need to take into consideration 1 hour travel time total.
