A must do in NYC! - A fantastic tour of Harlem and the Bronx, a must for Hip Hop lovers or just fans of modern culture. Our guide Tuffy was excellent, v informative and had a lot of first hand experience working with legends of the game. Despite the cold and rain we had a memorable morning, including a few spine tingling moments for this 90s Hip Hop head. Highly recommend.

Great experience if you get the chance. - Tour guide made the tour. He was very energetic and made the experience with his breadth of knowledge. The only thing I would say is to spend longer at landmarks such as Apollo and Yankee Staduim, these where whistle stop. Plus we never saw the Biggy Mural although we did see lots of others. Highlights were home of Hip Hop and the Joker steps. Thank you for a great experience.

Amazing Tour!! - This was such an incredible tour! We had the best time with RAYZA and learned so much! It was so engaging, interactive and incorporated a full multimedia experience! We would highly recommend this tour to others and I liked it so much that I will be coming back with a group of my high school students!

Worth double the cost! - AMAZING! I've been on tours in at least fifteen countries and the Hush Hip Hop Tour was in the top three! We were driven by owner John, and listened to the incredible RayZa as he shared his passion, love and voluminous historical info on all things Harlem, graffiti, hip hop, breaking, politics, music, DJing, MCing and inside scoop. At one stop we had a private breaking class with artist Eli on an iconic basketball court--crazy fun. We were scouting Hush for a future trip with a crew of high school students and they will lose their minds at the stories, videos and RayZa's live rap while on the bus transversing sites like the room where Hip Hop started, August 11, 1973, to the basketball court of the "shot heard round the world." Can't say enough about this epic tour, worth every penny.

This Tour is FIRE!!!! - This tour was FIRE! We learned all about Hip Hop including the four foundational elements of Hip Hop. We visited the place where it all began even played ball at the famous Ruckers park. RayZa, our tour guide, was excellent. The brother can freestyle!! If you’re a Hip Hop fan this is a must do. You will walk away with a greater appreciation of the Culture.

HUSH TOUR - HIP HOP - Awesome time we had on this tour. Had a legit host/tour guide that was able to educate us and get us excited about hip hop culture. Never was it taken for granted that we were touring the sacred grounds of the birthplace of hip hop. 3 hours well spent. I do recommend this tour, and have already recommended this tour to my family and friends during future visits to NYC. LET'S GO!

More Hip Hop - Razor and B-Boy Rento did an excellent job. I did like playing the music on the ride and Razor’s lyrical skills. I’d love to hear more about hip hop as we pass through the cities. Hip hop has happened all over New York for more than 50 years and I’d like to hear him point out more information as we pass through.
