Average Rating: 3 stars out of 5
Very Informative

Really good tour on slavery in NYC. Our tour guide, an ex-teacher, was great.

Awesome Tour Guide, Mediocre Sites

Our tour guide was remarkably versed in the topic. I'd give the presentation a 5, but the sites visited were only lukewarm. I expected more locations of safehouses, transportation methods, etc.
