Soul of Harlem History and Heritage Walking Tour

Aperçu

Discover the streets where Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and other cutting-edge Harlem Renaissance players put American music on the world map.

And where Fidel Castro slept after being kicked out of a midtown hotel for having chickens in his room.

Harlem's history is also one of the city's most dramatic, having gone through many ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic changes over the past roughly 400 years.

This has resulted in a diverse array of places of worship, theaters, homes, and eating establishments.

Join us uptown on our signature, award-winning two-hour Harlem walking tour.

The tour was extremely informative and fun. I will highly recommend the Harlem heritage tour. "Lady" was our tour guide person and was so relatable. We came across even more things to do during my visit and saved so much money.

Lady Altovise is an amazing tour guide I booked her at the suggestion of my cousin who booked with a group of friends a few months back and she was so much better than I ever imagined
