| A brilliant tour, I think me and my friends will all agree this is one of the best we have ever done and we've travelled all over the world. Grandmaster Caz was a trully great tour guide and to have someone who was there right at the birth of hip hop to show you round where it all started felt like a real privillege.
Was a great start to our holiday in New York and took us to areas we might not have otherwise gone to. |

| my boy and i took this tour to check out historic places in NYC that were important in the early days of hip hop. As both of us have been down with hip hop for 10-15 years we werent after the beginner class style that the tour was. Would have been dope if the tour have delved deeper into the mindset of the movement (but cant expect much as its more aimed at tourists/people who dont follow hip hop). Caz was the best mc we could have hoped for, entertained us like crazy and we were lucky enough to meet KRS-1 on our tour so u aint gonna catch too much reck from us. Look forward to a tour (if possible) that takes heads deeper into the old stomping grounds of all the elements of this ish'. THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND - U NEVER KNOW WHO U COULD CATCH CRUISIN WITH CAZ IN NYC!! |

| The tour was excellent. A faultless history lesson in New York history expertly and enthusiastically told by the legendary Grandmaster Caz sticking to the facts and telling it like it was. Slightly marred by the initial choice of music (nobody want to hear Puff Daddy/P-Diddy/Diddy or LL Cool J past his prime - sticking to the better, non-commercial stuff would have been a far better choice) and the selling of bootleg CDs at the end (especially as this happened directly after Grandmaster Caz's tale of getting denied royalties from Rapper's Delight - a touch hypocritical if you ask me). These minor gripes aside, this is highly recommended especaially if Grandmaster Caz is your guide on the day. |

| First off I want to thank Hush Tours (Sorry can't remember the helpful lady's name) for giving us a meeting point when our flight was delayed and we were half an hour late. Met the crew at 106 & Park where we walked around this school yard with all this sick graffiti including the "Graffiti Wall of Fame". From there we stopped at multiple historic spots. One being Rucker Park where Mighty Mouse B-Boy master gave us a dose of some NY b-boyin'. Which included a challenge from one of our fellow tour crew which was coo. Even though I may of knew a lot of the history already it was sick to see all the original birth places. Not to mention having Caz as a MC the whole time, #$%!ing sick! MC Delight was jokes " Who put this thing together? Me that's who!" a must see live. My fav moment had to be getting a pic of me and Caz in front of the birth place of Hip-Hop and now a landmark 1520 Sedgwick Ave. Strictly Unforgettable! |

| 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! |

| One of the friendliest and enjoyable tours I've been on. An informative and entertaining trip. Got to meet some of the legends of early hip-hop who gave a unique personalised view of the roots of hip hop. Would highly recommend this trip to everyone!! |
