For $15, today's side deal leads you down the Boulevard of Dreams with a two-hour jazz tour (a $30 value) from Big Apple Jazz Tours. Tours are held at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. on many Sundays. Please provide at least three date options when emailing or calling to reserve your tour.

This two-hour tour will start with an hour of walking down and around a historic stretch of 7th Avenue in Harlem known to the world as the Boulevard of Dreams. Led by lifelong jazz aficionado and company founder Gordon Polatnick, you'll gain insight into the history and beauty of the jazz age and take a gander with newly informed eyes at the street that birthed stars such as Louie Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and more. The second hour of the tour is spent in the comfort of a local jazz club, where you'll hear a genuine neighborhood jam session from local, living jazz musicians.
