This was a groupon and did not include lunch, but we knew that. That's not an option above when choosing the activity. Anyway, we are New Yorkers who moved close to Harlem (Morningside Heights) last summer and wanted to learn more. Carolyn was warm, informed, and clearly a long-time committed resident of this neighborhood. We learned a lot about the distant and recent history of streets we walk several times a week and she introduced us to the Seafood food truck at 125th and Adam Clayton Powell Blvd, a place we will definitely be returning to. Highly recommended. Also (because it's not an option) I want to specify that we were an adult couple and our adult son.

I chose this tour via Groupon as a birthday present for my sister. We arrived at the meeting point and was greeted warmly by our tour guide. We toured various parts of Harlem learning about the rich history and architecture. What we appreciated most were the little bits of other information that was offered such as housing costs, upcoming events in the area and also the general humor. Because of the tour and its short duration, my sister really enjoyed her birthday. I will definitely try other options they have here.
