| What a great experience this was i am from Melbourne Australia my friend and i had a ball on the tour. Great to see something different from the normal NYC tours, small group made the tour very personal and a lot of great infomation, Grandmaster Caz was a great host on the tour. Well worth doing the tour will be telling friends and family to do the tour when they come to NYC. Many thanks to Grandmaster Caz 10 out of 10 | ||||||

Way Surpassed My Expectations

| I thought this tour would hit a few hip hop highlights, teach me a few things, but it went way beyond that. It renewed my love for NYC and the old school scene. Raheim from Grandmaster Flash had a lot of insight and wasn't afraid to get controversial. There was a whole lot of love on our tour bus -- the leaders totally encouraged the budding rapper and b-boy in our group to share their talents. This is a tour company with heart and a lot of respect for its customers. Whether you are a hip-hop know-it-all or just curious about a fundamental part of what makes this city great, you should go on this tour. | ||||||

| Raheem was an excellent guide - he really knew his stuff, the boom box with "The Message" blaring out down the street was a nice touch. The tour was relaxed, but very informative and we learnt a lot about Harlem and the Bronx -so I would recommend this tour for anyone and not just Hip Hop heads! We were in NYC on our honeymoon and I have to say that this tour really was the icing on the cake! Ben and Rachel Allen Bristol UK | ||||||

| For someone who discover for the first time NY, Hip Hop Tour should be a part of the complete experience. Nowadays you cannot define New York city style without Hip Hop Culture. Cannot ignore it, or maybe if you go there exclusively for shopping... hahaha. How you could discover on your own the spots, how you could find out THE places, who else should guide you better than the one who made history? Those are only few reasons for taking the Hip Hop Tour. I enjoyed a lot those hours, and now I regret a lot for didn't have enough time to know you guys better. Congratulations for a very good ideea and for your generosity to share with us your experience. So: Suzi loves Hip Hop! Thank you all, THANK YOU Grandmaster Caz! Suzana Dan | ||||||

| Me and my girlfriend were happy to know that Grandmaster Caz was taking our tour. He is a living testament to what real hip hop stands for, his knowledge, enthusiasm and love for it show throughout and he's not bad at a rap or two. We really enjoyed the tour around Harlem and The Bronx although I would have liked to have seen a little more of the areas of The Bronx if there was more time available. B-Boy Mighty Mouse came across as a warm character and did us a few moves and explained his love and knowledge of breaking. We saw some nice graff pieces in Spanish Harlem in the school yard and we managed to get a few snaps including a group one with Caz. The visit to 1520 Sedgwick Avenue where the first hip hop party started in '73 was good to see although it was different to what I expected but it was still good to be there. The food stop at the soul food cafe was nice, a good selection of everything you could think of to pile into a tray and fill your belly with. I would strongly recommend this tour as it was a good overall view of where things started in the early days of hip hop and a broad view of things in general over the years by someone who has been there since it started. Peace to Caz, he's ace! | ||||||

Great Tour, a must for HipHop Heads

| I attended the tour in September and I must say it was more than worth it. The tour was hosted by Grandmaster Caz who gave truly an indepth look in the history of Hip Hop. For me as a more new school guy (as I was born 1976) it was quite intersting to see all the places where it all started. Additionaly Caz could tell you everything first hand since he lived and still lives Hip Hop from the early beginning. So in all it was a great day and I can just recommend it to everyone who loves and lives Hip Hop or is just interested in this culture. Its really worth the money and time and you will make a great experience. Keep up the good work Hush Tours! Best wishes from CGN (Germany).....Andy P.S. When are you going to offer the BK tour on a more regular basis? | ||||||

A Hip Hop Delight!

| My girlfriend and I were on vacation in New York from the UK. I was just 12 years old when I first experienced Hip Hop in 1983 (you can do the maths yourselves! ;-) In the 25 years since, I've been steeped in Hip Hop culture, a fan, follower, and participant in all elements of the culture over the years. I'm well-read in the history and foundations of the Hip Hop, so for me, this tour was the most anticipated highlight of my week-long vacation in NYC - it didn't disappoint! Not wanting to sound over-dramatic, the tour was an almost spiritual experience for me - visiting the key landmarks of Hip Hop's formative years, was a dream realised! Our host, Grandmaster Caz was a total star - his enduring passion for the culture was sincere and incredibly informative, documenting the birth of Hip Hop in the wider context of life in 1970's New York. It would be wrong to list the specific highlights of this tour here (I actually avoided the reviews before I booked, for fear of reading any 'spoilers'!) Suffice to say the tour was a fantastic experience, well-organised, educational, very 'interactive' with many surprises along the way! Highly recommended! | ||||||

| I would recommend this tour to any hip-hop enthusiast who is interested in learning more about the origins of the genre. Also a good chance to view the sights of Harlem and the Bronx, including the Apollo Theater and Rucker Park. The tour is probably a bit long, but that can be attributed to having to sit in NYC traffic. | ||||||

Just what we were looking for

| When coming to New York for the first time I had two major goals to achieve, next to just getting to know New York better: 1. Buy sneakers 2. Learn about the roots of HipHop The Hush Hip Hop tour definitely made me achieve the second goal. We did the Harlem and Bronx tour, with Grandmaster Caz as our tourguide. This man is GREAT! The way he told the story of the early days was just perfect. We were shown different important places and (and this was maybe the highlight of the tour), the place where the first HipHop party ever was given. Cool Herc's place. The place where HipHop started. For anyone interested in HipHop and/or in Harlem and the Bronx, you definitely need to do this tour. A visit to these two boroughs is mandatory if you want a complete experience of New York. Don't just stay in "save" Manhattan! If you're looking for some cool sneakerstores, keep your pen and pad ready, cause you need to write down some of the streets you pass. You don't have the change to get off and check out the stores, but after the tour you know where you should head next ;-) But really. If you want to know more about what happened in the past, as far as HipHop is concerned, do this tour! I know I will do another Hush tour when I come back to New York. Fo sho! CAZ! You da man. Thanks again for the experience! | ||||||

great potential, but fell far short

| 1. Too long for what it contained. 2. Although we enjoyed the food very much the restaurant did not have enough seating and we ended up eating our food while sitting outside on the ground/sidewalk in front of a boarded up storefront. 3. VERY disappointed that all we saw of the Apollo was a 5 second stop out front. The Apollo was highlighted in the description of the tour so I assumed there would be more emphasis on it. 4. Curious why no mention was made of the band "Queen" as the beat of "Rapper's Delight" is eerily similiar to "Another One Bites the Dust" and the song that Grand Master Caz was singing "We are the champions" is also a Queen song. 5. More actual hip hop music on the tour would be good. 6. The info on Graffiti was great. It is an incredible art form! Would have liked to see more authentic graffiti rather than what seemed like "staged" graffiti outside of the school. (Did those artists get paid?) 7. The tour started off really well with the breakdancing. It got the tourists involved and hyped about what was to come. Could use more tourist involvement thorughout. You need to sustain the interests of the youth ( and their parents) who have short attention spans. 8. The four pillars (legs) of hip hop was a wonderful way to set up the tour but it seemed to not go anywhere. Could you have the tourists try out some authentic equipment at a stop in the Bronx as a hand's on experience of one of the legs? I think the four legs has a lot of potential because everyone can undersatnd the analogy/metaphor, but its potential needs to be explored as an easily accessible construct to which people can apply what they learn, it all just needs to be more explicit. | ||||||

| The tour was great, I totally recommend it. Our guide Reggie was awesome.... funny and knew so much not just about the early days of Hip Hop but the city and the sites!! I am a fan of Old School Hip Hop but this tour is also good for people who aren't that into Old School Hip Hop as you get to see parts of New York you have never seen before..... a great insight to New York!!! Highly Recommended... Thanks so much!!! | ||||||
