| Excellent tour, excellent guides, great value.
I've toured the spiritual home of Opera [La Scala in Milan (Italy)] and been to the home of Ballet [Mariinsky in St. Petersburg (Russia)] ... the hip-hop tour of NYC is much more moving and a better experience ! |

| Laughed, learned, participated and had 4 of the most interesting hours i've ever had in my time on this planet so far.
Amazing hosts...sites and history all rolled into 1. Highly recommended even if you dont have an interest in the culture, because when you step off the bus at the end you will do !
Thanks Hush |

| Grandmaster Caz proved that hip hop ain't dead, and if this tour continues, it probably will never die. We had to leave for Switzerland on that Saturday evening on the last day of our week long trip and looked forward to the tour ALL week.
We were not disappointed, from the start of the tour opening with the invincible Grandmaster Caz and crew rapping live on the bus right up to the cool ending of the Blackbirds "Rock Creek Park".
The hiphop bus crew had the whole setup running slick, fast and totally engrossing for the four hours, which just flew past.
We felt the history standing in the playgound where DJ Kool Hurk started the movement. We saw the once-scary streets of Harlem and the Bronx, which we never have visited alone (Great .... another typical European false stereotyping smashed!!)
Not too sure if my back will recover from the impromptu breakdance lesson, but my wife had a great laugh watching me try to follow the resident expert Mighty Mouse.
We'll treasure the experience as piece of the REAL New York. Peace ! |

| it was good to see many spots that you've heard about over the years in different songs and interviews, graffiti hall of fame was a nice stop off, visiting the building that hip-hop started in will always stay in my mind, recommend this to anyone involved in the culture or for anyone wanting to learn more about it, caz was a great tour guide |

| you should include a store in the tour, you'd sell heaps of Sedwick and Cedar gear!
All the rest is perfect, long live Hip Hop! |

| Having been to New York City many times, I would have to say that the Hip Hop Tour Led by the Pioneering Legends of Rap was one of the most enjoyable, interesting and authentic experience I've ever had there. The guides were engaging, passionate and excellent and both my 19 year old son and myself thouroughly had a blast. In fact, it was the only part of our 3 day N.Y. trip we kept talking about days afterwards.
Thanks to Debra the organizer, Grand Master Caz , JDL, and Puerto Rico. A good time was had by all. |

| My son and myself had an awesome time on the tour with Grandmaster Caz! I consider myself well versed in Hip-Hop culture, but I learned alot of new things from Caz on the tour. The experience for my son will never be forgotten. Caz used him as his "teacher's assistant" and he was so excited and paid his full undivided attention throughout the whole tour. This is definitely needed, and I will pass on the info to the whole music and fashion industry contacts that i possess. Much continued success with the tour, and the history must be reinforced! This is an excellent way to do just that!
THANK YOU!

| 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! |

| This trip with its information and especially with the explanations from Caz Fly was surely one of the best things of our 5ht New York trip and we strongly recommend it for all people who are interested in HipHop. All the stops were interesting and we also loved the food and the CDs we bought. We really had a lot of fun. Back home we listened to our old vinyl records and found one "Wild style" with Grandmaster Caz, is this Caz Fly?
