	A True Guide to Real Hip-Hop Rapper's Row Queens Bridge & Hollis Hip Hop Tour
	Sun, Jun 10, 07 12:00 PM	grandmaster	Unspecified	20-29	International Tourist(s)	Individual
	If you are a real Hip-Hop fan like myself then you have to check out this tour. The fact that most of the Hip-Hop ended coming from the borough of Queens places like Queenbridge, Hollis, Jamaica it ened up shaping the sound of Hip-Hop for years which makes this an essential tour. With Mikey D (Main Source) as your tour guide he takes you to places they don't advertise on those NY tourist guides. I was luckily enough to roll in Mikey's SUV which gave you a more real feel than being in a big tourist bus. I also got to check out the famous 'Rooney's' barber shop as seen in MTV' show 'The Shop'. As Mikey seems to know everyone he was definitley the right person to roll with. Massive respect to Mikey D, Mark and Debra. Si
	A Real Tour of the Roots of Hip-Hop Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx
	Sat, Jun 9, 07 11:00 AM	grandmaster	Male	20-29	International Tourist(s)	Individual
	Being a fan of Hip-Hop from the early 80s to todays different sound this tour was a true experience of Hip-Hop culture which defined and still defines New York City. Travelling to the birthplace of Hip-Hop The Bronx as well as Harlem our tour guide 'Reggie Reg' gave all the info anyone who was unaware of what 'Hip-Hop culture' was all about. Knowing my Hip-Hop history it was great to visit The Graffiti Hall of Fame, Rucker Park and other places of Hip-Hop relevence which you wouldn't normally find on that New York tourist map!. Whether you are a Hip-Hop historian or a novice Hush tours can deliver the info and experience like no other. Massive shout out to Reggie Reg of The Crash Crew , Madness and of course Debra. Si

	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!
	lots of potential Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Walking Tour
	Sat, Jun 2, 07 12:00 PM	akermack	Female	20-29	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
	Overall, I thought the experience was well intentioned but I felt it came up short in a few ways. Our guide was very friendly and personable. It was great to have a member of a pioneering hiphop group, but I felt he could have benefited from some specific training in tour operation. He brought up a lot of interesting facts and stories but I thought his historical knowledge was a bit sprawling and patchy. The tour was really about the origins of hiphop more than anything, and not so much it's evolution. Basically we got as far as RUN DMC (which is really just the beginning), and stopped there. Also, the video at the beginning, while interesting did not relate to hiphop specifically. I think the video should be recommended to the tour group but should not take up a half hour of the tour. Great idea, many simple ways to make it alot better.

	I had a fantastic time. Grand Master Caz was entertaining and gave us a great history lesson in the hip hop culture. We got to experience so many great neighborhoods while learning about hip hop. I enjoyed myself and would recommend this tour to all of my friends.
	great intro to hip-hop Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

	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.
	A good way to see some of the real New York Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Walking Tour
	Sun, May 20, 07 12:10 PM	Johncross	Male	50-59	International Tourist(s)	Other
	This tour I would recommend. The guide was both knowledgeable and passionate about his subject. I saw parts of New York I would not have seen and learned some local history in the bargain. Make sure you are up for a good walk and you will enjoy this tour gauranteed. You must also try some soul food at the end. great !! thanks Reggie from Dad and Jon Boy

	I really liked the tour. Being guided through some of the most important places in hiphop history by one of its first minute participants was certainly an experience not to be missed. I appreciated the stories and the vast knowledge and personal experiences they were based on. Grandmaster Caz entertained us well, and I am sure we all learned a lot. However, the real tour was over after 2 1/2 hours. Although lunch was excellent, I wished we would have visited a few more places - I am sure there are more than the ones we have seen. Overall, the concept and its realization worked very much to my satisfaction, and I would recommend going on the tour.
	A in depth look at hip-hop beginnings and culture Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

	My sister (same age), myself, and my nephew (13) took this tour on May 12, 2007. We THOROUGHLY enjoyed it. We travel quite a bit and have taken many tours in many different cities, including other tours in New York. We were impressed with this tour and the Pioneer of our journey -- Grandmaster Caz. He provided musical history accompanied by relevant audio (at the aid of his assistant) through the speakers of the bus. Growing up in that error and in The Bronx gave me and my sister an advantage over the other passengers. We found ourselves playing name that tune in the first 4 seconds of each song played. GM Caz was passionate about hip-hop and making sure our group understood the importance of it, from its early beginnings to current day. My sister and I were born in Harlem and grew up in The Bronx. Telling my nephew about how it was for us growing up was not enough. Before this tour, you could actually see him roll his eyes when a sampled song came on the radio that we already knew, but an upcoming artist decided to rap on top of the old track. Hearing it from GM Caz made it relevant to him and now we finally have the credibility we deserve -- thanks GM Caz. I loved that the bus started in mid-town and went to Harlem and then The Bronx, and back. The stop off for lunch at Manna's was at the appropriate time. The timing of the entire trip was perfect. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has ever questioned the importance of hip-hop in our culture and lives. We will probably do this tour again on another trip to New York and take the Walk this Way tour in hopes of getting a different Pioneering Legend for his/her perspective.
	The tour UNLIKE any other! Walk This Way - Harlem Hip Hop Walking Tour

	My girlfriend (she is not a huge hip hop fan) and I attended the Harlem Walk it Out Hip Hop Tour. Our tour guide was Reggie Reg of the Crash Crew. He was so nice and knowledgeable. We really appreciated his outlook and the hands on approach the tour had. Nothing beats actually walking through Harlem and taking in all of the sights, sounds and smells. Be sure to have a lot of questions of your own to ask in order to really get the most of out of Reggie Reg. This tour is very much alive and interactive and is best suited for those who have don't have all the answers. My girlfriend came away with a definite deeper understanding of why I love to pump my hip hop loud now. We saw many historical areas that, while not specific to hip hop, were of great interest to me regarding Harlems history. We passed by many street vendors and I picked up a fantastic t-shirt featuring the Notrious B.I.G. off one of the street vendors. We wwnt into a record store as well where I would have liked to buy a few things. My point is that you should carry a little extra money if you want to buy anything during the tour. Of course another highlight was the Soul Food lunch we had. I am telling you that if you come hungry you will leave stuffed. The food was great and the people in the restaurant were very nice. All in all a great one of a kind tour that I want to encourage everyone to go on. I also purchased the CD from Hush Tours when I purchased the tickets and Reggie Reg brought it for me. I highly recommend this CD as it contains many of the hits of early hip hop. If you do not have an extensive collection of hip hop classics then you should for sure spend the 12 bucks and get this bad boy. Of course it also helps take me back to 106 and Park in Harlem everytime I pop it in my cars cd player! Thanks again to Reggie Reg and everyone at Hush Tours!
	Respect the old school, where it came from. NY Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

	It was awesome. Caz a true legend in the game, much respect, keep on represent NY, Bronx that is my defenition off hip hop as a 35 year old male from Copenhagen, Denmark. This culture has been my great joy in life since 1985, i was 13 years old when i for the first time on danish TV saw the acrobatic dance from the streets of NY. Since that i was hooked. Though I am getting older i still go to jams, concerts and sometimes on a club called Hip Hop Kontoret (The Hip Hop office). This culture has giving me so much, and are much more than MTV. I can only recommend Hush tours, even iff you are not interested in the culture of Hip Hop, it is still a big history off New York. Hope to come back soon. I am out. NaS is here in Copenhagen 31. may 2007, and over here in europe we are going to show him Hip Hop is not dead, she is here to stay. Hell yeah!!!
	Enjoy jumping BACK in time Hip Hop Tour Led by Pioneers Harlem & The Bronx

	Pros: - Grandmaster Caz really knows what he's talking about - Caz brings you back in the late 70ies when all began - You'll get an impression why and how they started to create their own thing called hiphop - You'll get out of Manhattan, into Harlem and Bronx - You'll get to know the real story behind the Sugarhill Gang - You'll spend a nice afternoon worth every single dime you spent Cons: - You move around and see many places, but of course it's not the same like when you're visiting old Egypt. New York changed in the last years. You'll see graffitys but of course you won't see the original ones. - You don't go to deep into the real Bronx Once again, it's been a great tour, we enjoyed every single minute!!

	Everyone tell's you all the things you have to do when going to NYC. Well, this is one of them it's just a shame not many people know about it! The tour was superb, informative and entertaining and relevant to both hip-hop fanatics and novices alike. Grandmaster Caz was quality from start to finish. We heard some great stories, had some great food, saw some great sites and were lucky enough to witness Caz perform first hand! If you want to do something completely different from the usual tourist stuff then make sure you do this!!!
