Not the normal sight-seeing of NYC....
Fri, Sep 25  11:00 AM Roemkens Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Individual
We meet Grandmster Caz, who is a very friendly and funny person. After we got on the bus he told us some things about hip hop`s history and we meet a B-Boy in Harlem, who showed us some moves and some of the visitors had the opportunuity to learn some B-Boy moves. We visited also some historic spots of Harlem and the Bronx and had lunch at a soul food restaurant. I can recommend this tour to everybody, who likes to see NYC from a different side and everybody, who is interested in hip hop culture. This tour is organized very good and informative. The tourguides are very friendly.

Sad about the cancellations
Sun, Sep 20  12:30 PM kateswain Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I enjoyed this trip however we and other passengers were all very disappointed that the pioneers of hip hop tour was cancelled and we were sent on this. It is, I would assume, a completely different tour, I (we) weren't really interested in hearing about the likes and music of Ja Rule, 50 Cent etc. So it wasn't a really suitable replacement. I guess my negative opinion stems from the fact there was 9 people on our tour and 4 of them had booked for the other tour, so I felt maybe they should have asked us if we'd like to pay more to have this tour cancelled and take the other, or just have a smaller group (I would have!!) It was really meant to be the highlight of my overseas trip so I was pretty depressed about it. Having said that, Mikey D was a great host, we saw a lot of queens, and had a pretty good time. It was better than not going at all :)

The projects look a great place to hang out!!
Sun, Sep 6  12:30 PM paulmeehan Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
September 2009 met with the legendary Mike D, and his crew and scooted over the bridge to Queens to hear his thoughts on Rap & Hip hop. There was 8 on the tour and I think we were the only couple who didnt know the history or most of the rappers he mentioned - by the end I knew my 'Ladies Love' from my Grandmaster Jay alright. Good fun, and Mikey D is so passionate - shame he only hit the UK for the first time this year though. We hit the Queensbury projects, 5 points graffitti, Hollis, Jamaica and then his favourite Barbers!! The soul food stop was great - the original Technics 1210s on display with all the platinum discs aswell. We had a great time Mike. You kept me laughing the whole tour (especially how the bad boy rapper was struggling with his allergies that day!!) Only downside was at times it seemed a bit stretched out and the lads werent sure what to do next or where to go. Apart from that, yeah it was worth the money and we have the memory of watching the man in action Freestyling away on the bus without any anti-histamines!! Paul & Claire Garstang, UK

Best tour ever.
Sun, Sep 6  12:30 PM ejmitch_23 Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
If you ever take a tour take this one. The best inside look at this area of Hip-hop. Brings everything you know to life. Not only this but Mikey D is a very genuine guy who makes you feel like a friend and not just a customer. This tour is worth more than the cost!

Great, entertaining, vivid, educational!
Fri, Sep 4  11:00 AM splint Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
I have been into Hip Hop since the late 80's - among loads of other musical styles and was looking very much forward to this tour (after being told about it by a friend who did it a few years back). I was on the tour with my wife (whom is not THAT into hip hop), but we both learned so much! Not only about Hip Hop and the origins, but also about American history (although it might "only" be 30 year old history) We were fully entertained throughout the entire trip! Grandmaster Cas was the perfect host for this. Friendly, witty, knowledgeable and fresh! I have a few friends that will be going to New York and this tour will be highly recommended!

experience Caz!
Fri, Aug 28  11:00 AM philliedal Male 20-29 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Despite long times on the bus and spending the last quarter of the 4 hours tour for lunch break and driving back to manhattan , i can recommend that off the beaten path experience, especially if you are into hip hop. Caz is such an charismatic and authentic guide that you should do this tour just listen to his involvement into the rap game which is by the way also one of the best introduction to the early days of hip hop out there. his storytelling alongside the sights made this to one of the most memorable experience of my nyc adventure. enjoy!

Authentic experience
Fri, Aug 21  11:00 AM Sylvia1234 Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Individual
I highly recommend Hush Tours NYC, if you are looking for a guided cultural tour with a difference. If you have time, you may want to consider at least two tours. I booked this tour using the online booking system, as I am from Australia. Hush Tours is not the run of the mill guided tour. It is much more and you are bound to learn something new, even if you are an avid hip-hop fanatic and expert yourself. I found the company to be prepared, on time, upbeat and host Grandmaster Caz is a natural talent, who will ensure you are guided tour an interactive experience of his backyard, NYC. I toured in Aug 2009. It is a positive experience.

Hip Hop tour
Fri, Aug 21  11:00 AM Nicholemc Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
Caz was great! We are long time fans of Hip hop from NY and knew much of the info already but still learned a lot and were very entertained. The tour description emphasizes "celebrity guides" so we had anticipated that we would be meeting Kurtis, Rahiem, Reggie or others as well. We loved the sites but wish we could have toured places inside too. The Apollo Theater; for example, was a cool stop but we couldn't see it well from inside the bus. While the lunch was fine, we would have preferred skipping it and having more actual hip hop tour time. The stop killed the momentum and was a distraction from the tour. Overall it was a really interesting tour though that we would reccomend and would definately take another Hush tour.

Excellent Tour
Fri, Aug 14  11:00 AM coachmkb Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
i am originally from NJ and now live with my wife and 3 sons in Nebraska and saw this on the internent when looking for things to do on our trip to New York. This ws one of the best things we had dome on our trip. Grandmaster Caz was great and very informative. The tour was exactly what I had hoped ot would be and more. I highly recommend this for anyone who would like to see sights throughout NY that you would normally not see and the background of Hip Hop. I opnly wish we could have taken another one of the tours they have as well. WELL WORTH IT!!!!!!!

Not worth the money
Sat, Aug 8  11:00 AM LoStarr Male 20-29 International Tourist(s) Individual
Well, I was really disappointed since the focus of the tour was so narrow and there was no information about political reasons that started Hip Hop. It was just a tour in a bus showing us the house where the first "hip hop party" took place and a short drive through Harlem to show us an area used in some old movies, but nothing about the real start of hip hop. So, in my opinion it was kind of a rip-off and nothing to really inform about the beginning of Hip Hop. Moreover, Caz just happened to be bragging about his involvement in the birth of Hip Hop and nothing more.

Worth every cent - A must if you will be in NYC
Sat, Aug 8  11:00 AM wmuhammad Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
Grandmaster Cas is a great tour guide and Hip-Hop historian. My wife and I booked several tours while in New York, however, this Hip-Hop tour was by FAR the BEST!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this tour, it should be a requirement for all who are interested in Hip-Hop. The city of New York has and continues to benefit from Hip-Hop. The least it can do is mark the historic sites which are visited during this tour. AWESOME! AWESOME and MORE AWESOME! If you are reading this and think that it may have been posted by someone who works for this tour, your are WRONG!!!!! I am a regular person who traveled from the South who experienced this fantastic tour. I have not had the chance to see the other tour guides in actions, I have witnessed Cas and he is excellent.

MAKE THIS A MUST IF YOU VISIT NEW YORK
Fri, Aug 7  11:00 AM SMAZUMDER Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This tour was one of the highlights of our honeymoon in New York. Our tour guide, grand master Caz with his big personality and his legendary status within the realms of Hip hop made this tour interesting, fun and equally accessible to those with an interest in the music and those with little or no knowledge. The tour takes you through Harlem and the Bronx, both areas that have to be experienced if you want to get a real flavour of the city . Overall, this 4 hour tour is packed with historical information about hip hop with visits to significant sites, guided by a legend who shares his incredible memories and experiences of the birth of the music. It was a true priviledge to be in his company and we left feeling that it was the real deal. We would like to extend a big thanks to Hush tours for providing what has been an excellent experience.
