What you'll do
Stop racing uptown to Harlem Sunday mornings to experience gospel music in one of our local churches. Our Harlem Saturday Gospel and Brunch Tour starts at 11:00 am at Emanuel A.M.E. Church with a one-hour hand-clapping, foot-stomping, soulful rhythms of a Black gospel music concert. After the gospel concert, we make our way to one of the local restaurants on Lenox Avenue for a delicious brunch.
To top off the tour we will tour the Mount Morris Park Historic District area. Here, you will find a multitude of churches rich with history amongst where our prominent individuals made their homes. Some of the most well-known musicians and entertainers started their journeys here, and much of the music that began here is now immortalized in American pop culture for future generations to enjoy. Make our way across 125th Street, the heartbeat of Harlem, and finish at the world-famous Apollo Theater.
Our Harlem Saturday Gospel and Brunch Tour is truly a day well spent, both outdoors and indoors. This will be an experience you will treasure for a lifetime.

Great Tour with Carolyn and Jonathan
Highly recommended and informative tour of Harlem. Carolyn and Jonathan are wonderful people, and we had a great last day in New York with them. Attending a Gospel church during this tour was a highlight of our trip. Thank you Carolyn and Jonathan 😉
We loved this activity. Our tour guide, a Harlem resident, was excellent. She was very knowledgeable about the multi-ethnic population of Harlem both past and present. The brunch was in a well-chosen and delicious restaurant; the group was congenial. We definitely recommend this.

We started with a bit of a walking tour through the area, and our tour guide Carolyn was so knowledgeable and friendly. She gave us all time to look and take photos and ask questions. We stopped at a church for a couple of hours- which was WONDERFUL. The music and preaching were fantastic and the congregation were very welcoming. Then we went for a great brunch. Overall, I would do this again for sure.
