I went on this tour with three of my friends and it was amazing! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable with high energy the entire time. He showed us a side of Harlem that we would’ve never got to see or heard the history about if we didn’t book this tour. He even freestyle rapped for us! I would definitely recommend this tour to others if you want to see and hear the History of Harlem and Hip Hop.

This tour was a highlight of my recent stay in NY! Rayza was our guide and he made sure we left the experience with knowledge to carry on. I was very intentional about booking a tour while in NY, I wanted it to be culture rich and led from an insider and this experience was spot on. I recommend it, so you too can learn about August 11, 1973!
