My friend and I visited NYC and as she is a practising Christian this felt like a very appropriate tour. Our tour took place on Sunday 10 July, my friend is hard of hearing and we mentioned this to the guide, who made every effort to ensure that she could hear him at all times, and this was greatly appreciated. The tour started with a walk around Harlem, I found this fascinating, our guide went into great detail about the history of music and area and how this has influenced Harlem and music overall. We were advised that the church service would be for real members of the congregation and if we were expecting Sister Act we would be deeply disappointed! We were not expecting Sister Act fortunately, however, found the church service to be no different than a modern approach in the UK churches, which was slightly disappointing, 4 singers and live musicians. Obviously this was not a concert and nor should it be but if you are expecting more of an original perceived gospel experience, you may be disappointed. There was a collection and rightly so, we both happily donated. Overall experience including full service was around 3.5 hours.
