- Elizabeth xNur Ali Gray was very informative about the history and the murals located in DC district. I enjoyed the walk while getting over 11000 steps. He dropped us off right were we were parked. Great tour. I would recommend.
- Dan OWe enjoyed our Black Journey tour of Philadelphia immensely. The 2 hours just flew by. Mijuel, our guide, was very knowledgeable, kept the story flowing, and had a great sense of humor. I highly recommend it.
- Philly HWe were looking for a virtual group activity for our team. The Black Journey was offering virtual tours! What an incredible hour we had. Raina brought the Black history of Philadelphia to life. Sharing portraits of people, stories, landmarks all across Philly without leaving our desks! It felt like we were walking through the city together. This isn't your typical tour, this is an honest truth about The Black Journey. Although there is heartbreaking and difficult material to hear, this tour is family friendly. In fact one of the attendees said "this should be presented in every public school in Philadelphia". Raina certainly has a gift for sharing hard stories and history of slavery as well as bringing light to some celebratory moments and featuring accomplished Black figures in our history. We 100% recommend and can't wait to do another tour. Maybe the next one will be in person, fingers crossed!
