Breathtaking hip hop tour! - Rayza made us dream and discover the authenticity of the Harlem and Bronx neighborhoods, all in a crazy atmosphere. At the rendezvous; tips, improvised break lessons, live rap freestyle, anecdotes all along the way, all in a musical atmosphere that made us travel through alleys and neighborhoods. Many thanks to the driver and Rayza for their good mood, energy, I had one of my best times of my stay in New York with you, We loved it!

The best guide tour ever! - Our guide was a real MC called Mike-C. He knew everything about hip hop and told the stories like an MC with so much wit, poetry and energy. The best guide tour I ever had!

Awesome tour - The tour exceeded our expectations. We got to see so many iconic spots in just 3 hours. Rayza’s high energy made the afternoon that much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend anyone that appreciates music to reserve a spot. John the driver was a whole vibe and added his own historical knowledge to the tour as well. Dont leave NYC without doing this tour!

Highly recommended! Fun day!! - Super fun day!! Went with my son and grandson and we all really enjoyed the day and I learned a lot about the culture of hip hop thanks to our super energetic Rayza. I was happily surprised to learn what a worldwide phenomenon this is!!! There was even a family from Italy and their teenage son’s breaking skills were jaw dropping. FROM ITALY!!! I was floored. Family owned small business. Highly recommended!!!

Extraordinary with lots of history. - Went with a friend who wanted to go because the date of his birth was recognised the date Hip Hop was created 11th August 1973. The tour is absolutely amazing, we was on the tour with The Fearless 4 member Mike C who guided us round Brooklyn Harlem and The Bronx featuring famous movie and music video scores including where some famous rappers were brought up in the neighbourhoods. Thanks Mike C I've told friends all about the awesome tour and keep Rockin It.

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.
