| One gets an overview of the early history of hip-hop. The guides are very friendly and interact a lot with people. I would have wished more stops and more music in the bus, though. The food was excellent. |

| I've been all over the world and this was one of the most fun things I have participated in. Great guides, very informative, fun and a look inside a world that shows diversity makes us all better as a whole. I, and my nieces, had a great time and appreciate the professionalism and talent of the persons involved. I would recommend this activity to anyone, it was fun! |

| We had a great time. We are a family of four. Two adults and a 22 and 16 year old. We all had a great time. We learned , we laughed, we ate and we took a lot of pictures. It is safe and worth the money. It is the next step beyond the tourist traps.
Good Luck

| 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. |

Perfect way to spend a Saturday in NYC!

| Loved the tour. Was engaged and entertained from start to finish. Loved Grandmaster Caz - what a guy - and was really interested in all he told us. Especially liked where we stopped for lunch. This little English white girl got her first taste of the oft' referenced 'collard greens'! |

Brilliant and fun day out

| Not knowing much about the history of Hip Hop, I had to be persuaded to go on this tour. However, I have to say that it was the highlight of my great week in New York.
Casanova Fly, our tour guide and member of Hip Hop history, is really brilliant: he knows his stuff (as well he should, being part of it) and on top of that, is a real entertainer.
At one point on the tour, someone driving past recognised him, stopped his car, jumped out, embraced him and then explained that "this guy was the source" (presumably of Hip Hop). At first I thought that it had to be staged, but it seemed way too random to be so.
I would go back on this tour any day of the week. |

| My best time in New York , by far, was being a part of the Hip Hop Tour, Raheim (original member of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five) was the illest tour guide I could ask for. The tour heightened my awareness and love for hip hop, not to mention giving me a glimpse inside a part of New York I might never of seen. If you are a true hip hop head, dont miss this tour ...it's a classic.

| 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. |
