| A very entertaining tour, it was awsome to see some of the sites from the early days of hip hop.... This is definitely a tour i'd recommend to anyone and everyone interested in the hip hop culture. |

| ...but nothing beats being shown around the culture's birthplace by Grand Master Caz. 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, the building where Harlem World used to be, The Apollo etc are all to be experienced 'live' - this cannot and should not be only experienced on the pages of a book or on a DVD.
Caz is a legend, an orginator, a great guide and really friendly - he's my kind of hero. Even my wife enjoyed the experience (we were on our honeymoon!)
If you love hip hop or have a serious interest in cultural history, book up.

| I was a little hesitant at first to order tickets for the Hip Hop tour with Hush Tours; but they provided great directions and it was so easy to print up the tickets. The tour was awesome! I learned so much about Hip Hop, and love it even more now than ever. It is one of the greatest highlights of our first trip to New York from Hawaii. I highly recommend it! |

| 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. |

| Having heard about the Hush Hip Hop Tours I had high expectations but the minute Grandmaster Caz stepped on the bus and we drove around Harlem and the Bronx these expectations were met, if not exceeded!
Dope tour with great knowledge and a humble/friendly guide. Wish I was in town long enough to do the Queens Rappers Row tour... next time!!!

| Whether you're into hip hop or not this tour is a MUST on a trip to NYC, if you want to go beyond the coventional tourist stuff. We were taken around for four hours by one of the legends of the old skool. The one, the very only ... Grandmaster Caz. In English parlance this man is the "dog's bollocks". He's a brilliant guide and raconteur. Not only does Caz educate you about the music, the grafitti, the clothes and the moves, he also tells some pretty funny stories too. Go on this tour and go back to the roots of hip hop. Sedgwick and Cedar '73 is what it's all about. |

| What a great experience this was i am from Melbourne Australia my friend and i had a ball on the tour. Great to see something different from the normal NYC tours, small group made the tour very personal and a lot of great infomation, Grandmaster Caz was a great host on the tour. Well worth doing the tour will be telling friends and family to do the tour when they come to NYC. Many thanks to Grandmaster Caz 10 out of 10 |
