| We were privileged to have such a knowledgeable jazz enthusiast in Paul, who guided us so well around the highlights of 'Jazz Harlem'. Those venues that had been sadly demolished were still pointed out, so that we had a sense of the full history. The music of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday etc. sound better to us now we have walked a little bit of their patch. Thanks for a great experience! |

| I thoroughly enjoyed the Harlem Jazz Walk and I would recommend it to anyone who loves jazz, history, and architecture. It certainly was good value.
Our tour guide Paul Blair was excellent - extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the great African American jazz players who lived and worked there and their music. We had lots of time to take photographs and Paul enthusiastically answered our questions.
Paul's tour was a treat for the jazz connoisseur as well as for the person who is just discovering jazz. He managed to make it interesting for everyone.
It was one of the high points of my visit. |

| The tour guide was so fantastic. He knew so much about all the historic buildings and the architecture of Harlem. It was a great way to see a very historic part of the city. It's a must see tour...more interesting than other areas of Manhattan.
Wear sneakers because you will be walking alot! It was a fabulous time. The tourguide was the best! |

| I had no idea that there are so many terrific neighbourhoods, houses, churches and jazz haunts to discover in Harlem, New York. This trip will bring to life the hip jazz locations of the 30's and 40's. A great use of a sunday morning - meet by the Chase bank - which used to be a ballroom! |
