Best Harlem Tour - Best tour ever. I’ve taken many tours but none come close to this. Neal is the complete package, entertaining, educational and engaging. If you want to experience Harlem take a tour with Neal.

The experience was amazing and very informative - As an educator the tour of Harlem was amazingly informative for my students. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable of Harlem and went out his way to accommodate. It’s unbelievable how much history is in Harlem.

While we GREATLY... - While we GREATLY appreciated our guide’s impromptu solution to our tour’s problem (he really was great), we didn’t get what we paid for, weren’t given any notice of the problem, and—after the impromptu— weren’t contacted with any explanation or apology.

A No Show - Trip Advisor sent me to the wrong meeting point, so tour left without us. Only in NYC for a few days so couldn't reschedule. Getting the run-around from the tour company and not getting my money back.
