MICHAEL D. GREEN
The Chief is very knowledgeable in the subject of Black Wall Street. His tour was very informative and you feel as though you are getting insider information. I would recommend this tour to any interested in the history of The Greenwood District of Tulsa.
I could truly go on and on about everything we learned on this tour but I really think it’s something everyone should prioritize as far as places to visit in Tulsa.
SEN. CORY BOOKER
I felt the pain as i touched the scarred and charred bricks of a great community. A community that thrived. We are here because of the folks that never gave up on the dream of America.
The Best 2 hour Tour In America
By doing the guided Greenwood Black Wall Street tour, you get all of the deeper insight and personal connection. So if you’re hesitating on the guided tour because you don’t usually like group tours or going at someone else’s pace – let me tell ya. As someone who hates both group things with strangers AND going at someone else’s pace, the guided tour was AMAZING.
JOANN BROWN
This was the most informative tour. It was on my bucket list since early 2000 when I first heard of this massacre. We were anxious to find out what was left out of history books and Chief delivered. Our tour was almost 4 hours. I highly recommend booking the full tour.
The best treatment I received was through my tour guide, Chief, from The Real Black Wall Street Tour. He gave me a personalized 1:1 tour of Black Wall Street, which included driving around to understand the scope of how large the Black community was prior to the Massacre. Chief recommended many Black-owned spots to check out. community.
