informative for people that dont know hiphop
Sat, Aug 11, 07   11:00 AM Schoki Female Under 20 International Tourist(s) Other
well i just think that the tour itself was fun and i liked it more than the walking tour, but nevertheless it was more for people without or with a veeery little knowledge of hiphop.

An honor
Sat, Aug 4, 07   11:00 AM jengibso Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
It was great to be with Grandmaster Caz and a highly international group of attendees. I learned so much and had an awesome time. I was in the city for 7 days and this tour was the best of my entire trip! I totally look at everything with new eyes-graffiti, hip-hop, rap, breaking, everything is different now! Caz is a highly entertaining, charming, friendly, intelligent and informative guide, and the group was really friendly and excited to participate. It was also great to watch everyone breaking in Rucker Park with Mighty Mouse. All in all, in was an honor to spend time with Caz and the group as a whole!

Recommendation From A Non Hip Hopster
Sat, Jul 28, 07   11:00 AM sqJa5D32 Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I personally have never been a fan of hip hop which is not uncommon for my age group. When my son realized I was taking my grandson and daughter-in-law to New York for a visit, he stated he had always wanted to participate in a hip hop tour. My grandson, age 11, also indicated he would enjoy this. I agreed because I became more interested in hip hop by watching "So You Think You Can Dance". After determining the tour was "family friendly", I agreed to purchase the tickets. I must say it was an absolute delight. Everyone was extremely professional, well versed and had the ability to make everyone of any gender or age feel quite comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed learning the history of hip hop and must say, because of this, I now have totally changed my view. Before this tour, I believed all hip hop was dirty language and totally disrespectful. I no longer believe this and am happy to have had the opportunity to learn the truth about hip hop. My grandson and daughter-in-law also enjoyed the tour. We purchased a CD which is currently being enjoyed by my grandson. It's wonderful to learn that just because a "culture" may not be one practiced by everyone, doesn't mean it's against good values.

Hip-Hop Fan? This is a must...
Sat, Jul 28, 07   11:00 AM tumsey Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
I went with a 15 year old boy - and think I had more fun than he did. We learned all about the origins of hip hop (and I learned what the four legs of the hip hop table are) as well as visited important geographic sites in the hip hop world. I even got to learn some beat boying moves! (Now that I know what beat-boying is...).Lunch was at a soul food buffet with classics for the picky (mac and cheese) as well as soul food specialties for the more adventurous - like collard greens. Music accompanied throughout added atmosphere and helped set the tone. Lecture tour throughout as well - with stories, history, anecdotes and a bit of rapping (oops, I mean emceeing). Nice mix of on and off the bus experience.

A great day!
Sat, Jul 28, 07   11:00 AM ealtaylor Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
I heard about the tour from a friend who lives in DC and had come to NYC specifically to take her family (w/ children) on the tour recently. My husband and I live in Manhattan and didn't even know about the tour. My husband is really into music and occasionally DJ's for private parties. I got the tickets as a surprise for him and we both loved it. It was fun and really interesting - a great day. Grandmaster Caz was the best guide you could ask for - he's a Hip Hop legend. It was really an insider's tour, and it was well done and professional . The food was great as well. We had a great group of people on the tour from all over the world - all different ages and backgrounds. There was a mother with her teenage son who learned some dance moves from a professional beboyer (breakdancer). One guy from the tour group actually had a dance off with the professional dancer. Grandmaster Caz did some MCing of his own songs and some freestyling too. Then two guys from the group both stood up and did their own freestyle rap. It was the real deal.

Great Tour just needs to pay attention to details
Sat, Jul 28, 07   11:00 AM Dansweet Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
I thought the tour was fun and informative. My husband and I are huge Hip Hop fans so this was a great way to spend the afternoon. We did have a couple of suggestions to make the tour look more professional. The speaker box that was used could be update and of better quality, it kept blinking in and out. The explaination of hip hop was great but we would have like to hear and see more relevant facts regarding hip hop and its relevance to NYC. We thought that they could put the Hush Tour sign on an A-frame so it would be easier to display and take with them during the tour rather then trying to hook it up to the door (which was rolled up while were there) or hooked to a fence in the park. It would have been nice to be given some time at the graffity wall to take pictures rather then running after the group and having to miss the speakers remarks to take them. I realize the tour is regarding the history of rap starting with it's pioneers but I think it would be of value to show the connection of how those individuals influenced modern day rappers or show some connections through time, from one generation to the next. sort of a 6 degrees of seperation thing. Those are my suggestions. Thanks for a great day.

A GREAT DAY OUT IN NEW YORK!!
Sat, Jul 14, 07   11:00 AM nilred1 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
we were visiting New York (from Scotland) and booked this for our 12 year old son who has an interest in hip hop. we were unsure of how we would fit into the group as we are umm a wee bit on the wrong side of 40!! Grandmaster Caz gave us an insight into hip hop (ask him about the table!!) with humour and passion. We would never have visited harlem or any of the interesting places on our own. There is more to New York than Times Square!! I would recommend this to anyone who has no knowledge to those with lots of knowledge.

Exciting
Sat, Jun 30, 07   3:10 PM Gabriella Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Other
We were met by Reggie Reg in Harlem and he gave us a lively insight to Harlem`s music history as well as that of hip hop. His genuine interest in hip hop and music was infectious and my 15 year old daughter and I greatly enjoyed the tour.

Best Tour Ever!!!
Sat, Jun 16, 07   11:00 AM genellie Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
All I can say is this was the best tour I have been on!!! Our guide was Grandmaster Caz....what more do I have to say??!!! Caz was cool, down to earth, entertaining and informative. Even with the hectic traffic and detours due to the Mets/Yank game we still enjoyed ourselves completely. Also helping guide was Madness....he was bananas!!! Loved every bit of it. Lunch set it off too...delicious!! This was a wonderful way to bring our vacation to an end!! Much Luv, Your Girls from Cali

hmm
Sat, Jun 16, 07   11:00 AM JennNilz00 Female Unspecified Local Group of Friends
I enjoy hip hop and learning about the roots of hip hop. This tour did provide information about the key players and the means in which hip hop evolved, but I found it to be a little unorganized and a means to promote Grandmaster Caz's comeback.

Very interesting and new insights
Tue, Jun 12, 07   12:05 PM katjafirus Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The tour was really well organised and even not being an expert in Hip Hop it gave a good insight on the start of it and its history. In addition it was fantastic to get some impression on the variety of Harlem. We really recommend the tour!

lots of potential
Sat, Jun 2, 07   12:00 PM akermack Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Overall, I thought the experience was well intentioned but I felt it came up short in a few ways. Our guide was very friendly and personable. It was great to have a member of a pioneering hiphop group, but I felt he could have benefited from some specific training in tour operation. He brought up a lot of interesting facts and stories but I thought his historical knowledge was a bit sprawling and patchy. The tour was really about the origins of hiphop more than anything, and not so much it's evolution. Basically we got as far as RUN DMC (which is really just the beginning), and stopped there. Also, the video at the beginning, while interesting did not relate to hiphop specifically. I think the video should be recommended to the tour group but should not take up a half hour of the tour. Great idea, many simple ways to make it alot better.

Hip Hop Tour with Hushtours
Sat, May 26, 07   11:00 AM chinadodley Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I had a fantastic time. Grand Master Caz was entertaining and gave us a great history lesson in the hip hop culture. We got to experience so many great neighborhoods while learning about hip hop. I enjoyed myself and would recommend this tour to all of my friends.
