Very small congregation with poor overall substance. We were in the service for over 2 hours - one would have been plenty.

Wonderful tour, our guide was great and we learned alot about Harlem. The music was fabulous too. Have recommended it to all my friends going to New York. Only negative point is the other people on the tour, a small group of people talked all the way through the tour and were very disrespectful in the church.

This was a fantastic way to get a flavour of Harlem. The guide was everything you could wish for - courteous, amusing, educated in his subject matter. The church made us all feel very welcome and the experience was just as I expected. Lunch was a hot buffet at The Cotton Club with a huge selection of varied 'soul food', Cajun dishes, of which we just had to try a little of each!! The accompanying gospel singers created a wonderful ambiance, which, combined with the historic information gleaned from the tour guide and the sights of Harlem made the trip a wonderful experience to be recommended to all.
