A very nice tour of Harlem with our guide Kaisa to understand the past of this neighborhood. Only regret, Columbia could not be visited.

Bonjour Maud, Merci beaucoup pour ce gentil commentaire qui nous fait chaud au cœur ! Nous sommes ravis que vous gardiez de bons souvenirs de votre visite avec Kaïssa. En effet, le campus de Columbia est fermé aux visiteurs depuis maintenant presque un an à notre grand désespoir. Pour autant, nous aimons toujours partager son histoire et son fonctionnement avec nos visiteurs au travers d'histoires et de photos :) Nous espérons avoir la chance de vous revoir lors d'une prochaine visite à New York ou dans une autre de nos destinations !

A very pleasant, eclectic and lively experience with Samuel in Harlem, history of the columbia university (unfortunately closed), architecture, music, the history of the evolution of the neighborhood, the good addresses, I would have followed with a little jazz, a meal or both! A real big plus compared to a solo visit, really nothing to do with visits by "herds"

Many thanks to Samuel for his kindness and explanations throughout this walk. Walking the streets of Harlem while discovering its history has been exciting. As a bonus, visit Columbia University - top! We highly recommend!
