Great Harlem tour with an amazing gospel mass! A big thank you to Jess, our passionate and captivating Francophone guide. He shares Harlem’s history with enthusiasm, which makes the tour even more interesting. Thanks to him, we loved it! 🙌✨
Jess best guide ever
The guide was truly exceptional! Jess speaks French perfectly, but above all he is incredibly kind, cheerful, and full of energy. As for the excursion, we particularly enjoyed the gospel service, and everything was well organized. Another big plus was the ability to book this excursion using the Explorer Pass. Thank you to you and to Jess!
