BA: Best Street Art Experience in Palermo
Description
Join us on this historically chronological tour about "urban art" in Buenos Aires. While all of its development will be done in the City through visits to different neighbourhoods, you will also see how this type of art has evolved from "vandalism" to an added value, aesthetically speaking, in the most trendy venues of the city. We are granted by the safe travel seal of World Travel & Tourism Council.

Best money spent in BA. Although I generally consider myself well educated in matters of art and culture, I knew almost nothing that was brought up in this tour. Fascinating and worth every peso.
This was, without a doubt, the best money spent in Buenos Aires (except for food). Although I consider myself well educated, I had no idea the significance and complexity of street art in this city’s culture. I learned a ton, and it was simply fascinating. Frankly I could’ve spent the day walking with my guide and learning things. I don’t know if there is more than one guide, but if you can get Florencia, you should. She was absolutely a treat to spend time with, and the opposite of robotic (unlike many guides who get bored over time). This is a must do.
Excellent tour, very interesting. Super recommended for everyone, especially those who like the art of graffiti. Our guide was Jorge, very polite, neat and with a very good English.
Dear derplan, Thanks a lot for your review! It`s good to hear that you were amused by the hidden and beautiful street art gems that the city has to offer. Hope to see you again in Buenos Aires, thank you again for your feedback! Axel
