with removing pavement driveway? What tools to use? Any tips?

Hire it done. Once you get the concrete broken up (and you may be
dealing with re-rod or wire in the slab), you'll have to load it and
find a proper dump or recycling venue for it. Expect the concrete to be
a minimum thickness of 4" -- 5 is quite likely. Then you will also
have to deal with a crushed stone compacted underlayment if it was
done "properly".

But if you really want the exercise, concrete saw or jackhammer, sledgehammer,
pry bars and possibly a sawzall... Don't forget safety glasses, gloves
and steel toe boots. Dust masks are adviseable.

Asphalt and compacted stone are easier to remove, but I suspect your
"pavement" = my "concrete".
