More about this tour: We will visit iconic locations such as the Abyssinian Baptist Church, Apollo Theater, Harlem Hospital Murals, Harlem Walk of Fame, Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, 125th Street, and the statues of Harriet Tubman and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. We will also explore landmarked streets such as Astor Row and Strivers Row. As we walk, we will enjoy the lovely architecture and wide boulevards of Harlem. And we will note how great African Americans are honored throughout the neighborhood.

We really enjoyed our tour, and spending time with Leigh, who was awesome! It provided the opportunity to see a neighborhood [West Harlem] we had not visited before, and sites we would have overlooked.
