Overview

Get to know this legendary neighborhood in northern Manhattan. A visit on a Sunday that gives us the opportunity to visit the African-American area of the city. All this walking, an excellent experience. We leave at 8:00 AM from Times Square, from there we will travel by subway to uptown Manhattan and begin the route along 125th Street, also known as Martin Luther King Boulevard. There we will make stops at the legendary Apollo Theater (1914) where many figures from the entertainment world began their artistic careers, Areta Franklyn, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick, James Brown, in addition to performing there, Michel Jackson and Steve Wonder among others. We make another stop in front of the old Theresa Hotel (1913), where figures such as Fidel Castro and John F. Kennedy stayed. We will have time to walk through its streets and see the famous brownstones, with time for photos. We finish the route by attending one of the religious services in a Baptist church, (duration 1 hour)
