| Grand Master Caz is a very interesting man who is part of the Hip Hop culture from its earliest days back in the 1970's.
He gave us a fascinating insight into the roots and the pillars of the Hip Hop culture and took us on a tour of parts of New York we would otherwise not have seen. He is not just a tour guide, he is genuinely an important part of the Hip Hop scene.
I would recommend this tour for anyone with an interest in Hip Hop and for any family on holiday in New York with teenage kids. |

| The guy who lead the tour on Friday, October 31 was a faded out hip hop star,
he really didnot give much information on the subject. People on the bus seemed
to know more about the subject then he did. He kept getting off the subject. He
really needs to bone up on the subject. Aslo most people are not interested in
his personal political opinions. He really didn't make too much sense.
The raps he shared with us were good. But really I think he need to tell us moreabout the whole culture of HIP HOP.
Tour was not worth the price. |

| I am not into Hip Hop at all. I took this tour with 3 teenagers because they wanted to take it. I came away with a different point of view. I have so much more respect for the original Hip Hop artists!!!!! WOW. I was blown away! Very professional and amazing! Thank you! The best tour I have ever taken |

| I'm going home to look up details on the whole genre .. names in my memory coming back to me....exciting to be shown round by Mr. Blow, I looked him up on the internet and realised how pioneering he was and what he stands for now.
and that restaurant was unexpected and just right. Our 10 year old has started making up rhymes
A really good, memorable tourist experience, thanks |

| 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. |

| 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! |

| hip-hop 101 on the bus, passing landmarks and stopping off to see graffiti hall of fame, break dancing and other important spots. the stop in harlem is especially good (soul food restaurant, too). bronx was only a brief drive-thru, but i guess it's important to at least go there. what makes this tour good is that it's led by an early hip-hop artist, in this case grandmaster caz, who was very entertaining. |

| Grandmaster Caz talked and sang with verve while we traveled from the upper West side all the way to the Bronx and back again and we wished we could've stayed a bit longer. To walk the streets and get more and more into the mood. Don't forget to check out the little record shop that sits next to the diner where we had our soul food. |
