The Soul of Harlem Walking Tour in New York

Przegląd
Our 10,000-step journey will begin with a bird' s-eye view of 125th Street, Harlem's most popular street. The main themes we will discuss are the Harlem Renaissance and gentrification.

We walk by and discuss these famous places:
- The world's famous Apollo Theater
- Sylvia's Soul Food Restaurant
- The home of Langston Hughes
- Astor's Row
- Several iconic murals

This tour is based on a book I have written, "You Are Here: A Geographic History of Enslaved and Free Africans in Manhattan from 1613 to 1865." I will use my tour guide experience (I have given over 700 tours) to make this a fun-filled tour. Best of all, you will have a Harlem experience—see the friendly culture, people, and places of Harlem.

If you are behind schedule, please get in touch with me ASAP. I will have a 5-minute grace period. Afterward, I will proceed to our first stop—the Metro-North Railroad (above-ground train station) directly across the street from the Ginjan Cafe on Park Ave.

I can not recommend this tour enough. From start to finish it is both engaging and informative. The tour gives historical context to Harlem, takes you to all the landmarks in an order that makes sense. If you’re deciding whether to just explore on your own or take this tour, you should take the tour! What makes this different than other tours is that your guide is from Harlem and has a genuine relationship with the people you meet and places you visit during the day. Best part of our trip so far!

Harlem is a vibrant and historic neighborhood with a rich culture and history, but without a guide it's can be hard to know where to start or what to see. Born in Harlem, Larry's passion, expertise, and genuine care for the community helped bring Harlem's 400 year history to life. Larry's tour is well-paced and engaging covering many of the major landmarks plus some hidden gems. Larry is a great storyteller and happy to answer any questions. He knows Harlem inside and out, and he's eager to share his knowledge with visitors. I felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour, and Larry made sure that we had plenty of breaks to cool off and use the restroom.
