A delightful tour that really captures the flavour of the early days of hip hop. All first hand experience - you can't get this stuff any other way. My 16 year old and I had a great time.
Must for old school fans Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

For someone who loved the Furious Five as a teenager it was a huge thrill to go on a tour hosted by Rahiem. It was really good to see places in Harlem and the Bronx that I would never have gone to independently.
Very very good Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Tour

The guide really showed us the sites we wanted to see and told us the stories we wanted to hear. It's a great way to see some of Harlem too!
Sweet Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Tour

The tour was pretty sweet. Our guide was awesome, he really opened up and we felt like we'd made a new friend by the end of the tour. We saw a lot of really awesome places from Hip Hop history.
Way Cool! Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

I went on this tour with my Mom and brother and sister. We had no idea of what to expect...then Kurtis Blow walks on the bus! It was great to learn all the history of rap and to see some of the places I had heard about. The taping at the Apollo was the best part and the grafitti wall. They could have played more music on the bus....
A very enjoyable and educational tour Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Tour
Sun, Feb 19, 06 1:00 PM	HowardE	Male	40-49	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family With Children
My teenage son and I took the Hip Hop Walking Tour and enjoyed it very much. We spent almost two hours with our guide, Raheim, checking out many of the sites that have been an important part of Hip Hop music and culture. But the highlight was listening to Raheim talk about Hip Hop in general, as well as his personal music experience. Raheim has been an important contributor to Hip Hop, from his time as a member of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five to his current gigs at B.B. King's and other clubs. He has influenced musicians from Puff Daddy to Snoop Dogg to Akon, so it was truly an honor to spend time with him and discuss music with him. And if you're really lucky, you may get him to perform for you, as he did for us.

My wife and I took our two teenage sons on the tour when we were on holiday in New York. We had expected to endure the tour rather than enjoy it. The opposite was certainly the case. The day we went it was very very cold. New york was just getting over it's biggest ever single snow fall. The warmth of the greeting we received along with the burning enthusiasm made sure it was all worthwhile. The guides, Rahiem and Red Alert gave us a lot of good information with passion and humour. There was loads of interaction with us. I was personaly struck by the fact that neither of these guys needed to be there. It was not a chore for them. They were obviously keen to impart their love of Hip-Hop and Rap to a wider audience. The highlights for me were the performance on the bus by Rahiem and the meal in the very good restaurant in Harlem. The boys loved it all. There are only two small points I would like to make that might improve things slightly: firstly it may be an idea to forget the hat and bling, give them to the guests to keep, or at least let them know when they are given out that they are only on loan. The other thing is that I'm sure an arrangement could be made to allow the tour guides to get a key for the graffiti wall, particularly as this tour promotes such a positive image of the art.

Excellent in every way! Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

The Hip-Hop tour was a great time from start to finish. It delivered everything that was promised. The leaders were friendly and very knowledgeable. I'd recommend this tour enthusiastically.
Fantastic Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

Enjoyed the time, wished it went into the Bronx a little deeper. A ride around Yankee stadium was not what I expected. Could have been more about the birthplace and neighborhoods.
definitely!!! Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Tour
Thu, Jan 5, 06 1:00 PM	lindgren	Male	40-49	Combination	Other
We very much enjoyed our tour and found our guide Raheim both interesting and professional. Only one of us on the tour is a hip hopper but my wife and I ,who are 'oldies', felt more of a connection to what the music and lyrics express. Raheim's knowlege of Harlem and hip hop in general is inspiring and infectious. My wife and I probably won't be doing the groupie thing anytime soon at hip hop concerts, but we will recommend anyone interested in bridging the generation and cultural gap to do this tour while enjoying the history of a 'way cool' place!
mad props to GM Cas and Debra Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx
Sat, Nov 26, 05 11:00 AM	companyman	Male	30-39	International Tourist(s)	Group of Friends
What a great time! Totally worth the price! Grandmaster Cas was knowledgeable and entertaining. The trip highlighted the four pillars of hip hop, b-boying, MCing, DJing and graf art. I learned a lot about the origins of hip hop, took lots of pictures, learned basic b-dancin' moves, and even got a chance to show off some MC skills. Pros: lots of fun, interactive, educational, just the right length, lunch included Cons: don't take this tour if you have no interest in hip hop, but that should go without saying. It's not a general tour of NYC with an emphasis on hip hop. It's all about hip hop. Suggestions: CDs are available for sale, but it would be nice to have the Kangol hats for sale as well. Maybe throw in the plastic bling bling as part of the tour.
Hip Hop is a Beautiful Thing Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

Recommended For: If you like Hip Hop you will definately enjoy this tour - meaning: if you think you want to go, you will enjoy yourself. I've read all the books, heard the albums, seen the movies, but still learned much. Just meeting Grandmaster Caz was enough for me! (Tour guides can vary.) As a tour guide he was welcoming, funny, entertaining, and exciting. I even found the other tour goers interesting as most were from out of the country: Scotland, Kenya, Japan, Germany, London, etc. The food was good too. Hesitant Recommendation For: Locals - Being my first visit to NYC I especially enjoyed the drive with additional sights including the Apollo, Malcolm X Ave, and Yankee Stadium. But this MAY be redundant for someone who has seen it all already. Haters and perpetrators - I do believe enjoyment of this tour hinged on letting oneself enyoy the community of hip hop which means enjoying the tour guide and others on the tour. If you have a stick up your butt, this tour will not remove it for you.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Harlem Hip Hop Church Founded By Kurtis Blow

Shame about the CDs! Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

Excellent and entertaining tour. Great fun, informative and done with great humour. Bought 6 of Grandmaster Caz's CDs and NONE work on any cd player I have tried so far. It it because I live in Scotland, and we are backward? I think not! $55 wasted! Tour highly recomended - just don't buy the CDs! Les Smith from Glasgow.
A truly amazing experience Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx
Sat, Nov 12, 05 11:00 AM	markyg	Male	30-39	International Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
It was an excellent day, something you must experieance if you have had any interest at all in the roots of hiphop. Covering every aspect of the culture I found the tour very informative and entertaining. This was largely due to having Grandmaster Caz as our host, it was great to hear his unbiased and detailed story of the early days of hiphop and the part he played in it. Higlights of the day included visiting 106 and park grafitti hall of fame, somewhere I have wanted to visit for many years - Excellent pieces by Dez, Ink76, Pink and Tats Crew. We also enjoyed visiting Rucker Park where we were given an exhibition in b-boying by some of the locals. Another highlight was visiting the Apollo theatre in Harlem, where we had the oppotunity to get off the bus and take photos. The only disappointing thing on an otherwise excellent day was not being able to actually enter the Hall of fame which was locked - although still managed to get some excellent photos. Just being able to visit places I had only ever seen in films and books was a truly amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone.
