| The tour guide was very energetic & passionate about what he was doing & did his best to answer questions throughout the tour. Eating in Harlem was a good experience to get a feel of the place, the experience could have been enriched if this part of the tour was combined with a mini walking tour taking in Spanish Harlem aswell. The Bronx part of the tour didnt really explore the area in the same way as the Harlem part but the breakdancing part of it was good & getting some of the tour party involved in the dancing & MC ing on the bus was good. Maybe an oppurtunity to try some scratching would have been good.
Overall goodee good tour, but dont expect too much in the 4hrs & you shouldnt be dissspointed. The tour guide was good but maybe if he was a little more open-minded about the different contributions made by different artists rather than his view then this would have been nice.

| I enjoyed it a lot. Everyone went out of their way to be helpful. I was disappointed we didn't get into the graffiti place. It was a lot of fun.

| This tour is so inspiring and exciting! On our tour, Reggie Reg (Crash Crew) and Raheem (Furious Five) took us on a journey to understanding and appreciating hip hop culture from its inception to its influence on popular culture today. The tour was interactive, tasty (yummy soul food in Harlem), and without doubt the highlight of our visit to New York. Thank you Hush Tours for this great experience! |

| This was a wonderful tour. It is a must if you are planning a trip in the area. We had the benefit of having a smaller group - so the tour was very personal and we were able to really have a unique experience. The person that took us on tour was VERY knowledgeable and made sure we have an opportunity to really appreciate the culture and history of hiphop. The lunch buffet was outstanding and really made the experience significant. Don't hesitiate to take this tour, it is the real thing -- it will be one of the most memorable experiences in New York . |

| Coming from London, and listening to hip hop for well over a decade now, we really wanted to see all the places it originated from. This tour gave us a great insight into how it got started and we could picture the scenes of the early days due to a great running commentary as we passed these places on our tour bus. These guys know what they are talking about, and tell you in an amusing and inspiring way.
The graffiti hall of fame was a highlight for me, as I had always wanted to see this.
The food in the restaurant was lovely and gave us a great chance to chat to our fellow hip hoppers on the tour.
All in all we really recommend it, and when we come back to New York, will be taking the other tours available. We cant wait to return!!! |

| This is a TOP NOTCH tour! It was very organized, well planned and ON TIME!!!! We were fortunate to have Kurtis Blow and Reggie Reg. They are knowledgeable and passionate about Hip Hop Culture which made the tour truly worthwhile. Although my husband and I experienced the Hip Hop movement first hand, our 11 year old son did not. We feel that it's important for him to learn history and he did. We all enjoyed it!!! The lunch was great, the group was small and overall if you're a fan of Old School this tour is not to be missed!!!!!!!
