We had an amazing time on this tour of Harlem and its history and the history of hip hop. Great energetic and friendly tour guide. Recommended for the whole family. You’ll be on a long walk so be sure to bring a cap and water during the summer and warm days.

An absolute must for anyone in New York- this tour is amazing for both tourists and locals! Gives you a great idea of not just the birthplace of hip hop, but other culturally important and relevant places that hold important pieces of history! Our guide was amazingly energetic, talented, and knowledgeable. I even brought my parents (who have limited interest or experience with hip hop) and they learned a ton, enjoyed their time, and definitely didn’t feel ou of place at all. I did the Harlem tour this trip, but I will absolutely be doing the Brooklyn tour on my next visit. Seriously do yourself a favour and book this tour!
