| First of all, the tour was great and I couldnt ask for a better guide than Grandmaster Caz. The fact that the tour was led by an ACTUAL hip hop pioneer adds the cherry on top of an already great bus tour, it really makes the tour what it is. Without knowing some of the background behind the spots that were visited, there would be nothing noteworthy to say, which is where Caz came into play not only with stories but with first hand knowledge. I would consider going back again even, but would have liked to see more places, but there's only so much time in one day! I actually felt at first that 4 hours might be a bit long, but when it got to the end, I felt we didnt have enough time! Maybe an alternate pioneer tour could be incorporated for those who want to go back. Aside from that, my only other recommendation is this, I would consider coming up with an alternate tour for hip-hop enthusiasts that gets more into detail and is a little more advanced for someone who is aleady well educated and versed on hip hop culture. The majority of the group on the tour seemed to not know much about hip hop at all, and much of the background given on the subject I already knew, which is fine, but I wanted to move past that somewhat and go deeper into some of the lesser known stories behind hip hop besides what is already known and accepted by people who have grown up and been hip hop oriented for a long time. Thanks, and AAAAAA++++ for the tour and its organizers | ||||||

| 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 | ||||||

| A guided tour of hip hop landmarks in the city where it all began and guided by hip hop LEGENDS no less! You can't go wrong, people. My friends and I were fortunate to have the pleasure of Reggie Reg and the one and only Kurtis Blow. These two cats guided us through the rich history of old school hip hop while asking us to take in scenery that is legendary. If you know your hip hop, you know pretty much every story these guys will tell, but to hear it from people who helped create hip hop is a wholly different experience. Plus, one of my friends kinda tagged along and wasn't so much into the history of hip hop, but he was really positively surprised and learned a thing or two. Both Blow and Reg are elder hip hop statesmen and act as such. Plenty of smiles and no bad vibes whatsoever. You will not regret it! | ||||||

Do this, a must!!

| If you have any interest in music this tour is a must for you. Grandmaster Cas, our tour guide, was superb and to think he was at the forefront of this music revolution is amazing. This tour will take you to parts of New York you will not otherwise visit, and you will also get an excellent history lesson long the way. A fun informative tour that will probably be the highlight of your holiday. Also great for teenagers if they are into hip hop. | ||||||

| Hi I'd just like to thank the tour organisers and our guide for the day, Kurtis Blow! Due to the snow tour was delayed( understandable) but was well worth the wait for a very personal tour through hip hop culture from its humble beginnings.. great to get stories from one who was there 1st hand .. funny witty and very educational. You could tell all who are involved in the tour have put their heart and soul into the project. Very good that they keep it to small numbers ( 12 on my tour) - making it a very personal touch. tour was ended by Kurtis freestyling on the coach back to manhattan... awesome. Was my 1st time in New York and this was definitely the highlight for me.. Recommend this to anyone who likes to delve into music culture and, anyone who just wants a tour a little bit different to the normal tourist trips! Well done one and all for a briliant tour - damn sure i will do it again on my return ---- Keep the vibe alive, peace Carl from Warrington - England | ||||||

| Caz was excellent as a guide! I will definately recommend this tour to my friends! The only thing I missed was to vist some more oldschoolplaces like RocksteadyPark or maybe the tour could have went to South Bronx too. | ||||||

Great time-fun and informative.

| My son and I took this tour after I read about it on line. I'm not a hip hop fan but knew my son listened to it often. We both enjoyed it very much. Me as new to the music and learning to appreciate it's background and importance to it's fans. My son as learning about the history and development of some of his favorite artists. Our tour guide John did a great job and made the walk very interesting. And fun. We agreed that during our next trip to NYC we will take the whole day bus tour and see even more next time. | ||||||

very interesting, but bit short of content

| The guys were good (Mikey D and other guy - who was more engaging and value add) Tour went for 3 hours instead of 4 advertised . Because lacked a few venues, best was 5 points. Tour could be done in 2 or so hours. I didn't mind tour in back seat of 4WD especially given quite cheap cost. But some may not like being 3 in back seat of a car. | ||||||

| All I can say, is that if you`re just a litttle bit interested in hip hop and afro-american culture, this tour is a must if you`re in new york. I enjoyed the whole trip, and the pioneers made sure I was never bored, not inside and not outside the bus. After one week in new york, this tour was definitely my biggest experience.. | ||||||

GREAT FOR TEENS!

| I am in agreement with most all of the reviews but would like to stress how great this was for my 13, 15 and 20 year old boys. They thought it was "hella tight" and posted their pics on myspace right when we got back. The history was interesting and this is something to do that not everyone has heard about so it makes it even more special. Thanks for a great time! | ||||||

Fantastic!

| first of all i'm orietta's son...i 've found this tour very intresting. the graffiti area was just crazy..and all the rest we have seen was very exciting too... i think that the coolest thing of this tour is that it makes you feel what is the reality in which a lot of people live, together with all the rappers that you've heard in your headcuffs for years and years. i mean, you can't say you have seen New York if you see just manhattan. but actually you wouldn't be able to go to queens as a tourist with your whole family, cause (maybe) it could be dangerous. thats why i thank hip hop tours for giving me this experience. mikey d was just great. he said a lot of interesting things. maybe the music was a bit too loud...and you know, some old parent can't stand it...anyway, i had a great time, and i think that everything has been perfect. thank you a lot, peace! francesco. | ||||||

| ahh grandmaster caz has been one of the nicest teacher i ve ever known...yeah, he teaches...he tells you HOW it really began... he takes you to the holy land of hip hop, south bronx...which hip hop fan doesn't want to see the bronx and harlem? which international tourist would go to eat at a soul food restaurant in harlem? and believe me,soul food is the best food i've eaten in america! so, with the nice atmosphere apported by grandmaster caz (he's great) i had the chance to feel the reality of a part of NYC that not many tourists have ever seen. i think everyone should do it... thank you for all, peace! | ||||||
