Highlights
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)

About New York City
New York City packs skyscrapers, famous museums, Broadway theatres and dozens of distinct neighbourhoods into five boroughs that hum day and night.
Manhattan is the classic first stop. Times Square glows above the theatre district, Central Park stretches for blocks between the Upper East and Upper West Sides, and the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building and Rockefeller Center define the midtown skyline. Downtown, the 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street and the Brooklyn Bridge sit close together, and boats run out past the Statue of Liberty to Ellis Island.
Top-ranked sights in New York City: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
