Absolute awesome tour - MUST DO the workshop afterwards ! Josh : thanks so much for sharing your knowledge + talent.
Very nice and interesting tour. Knowledgeable and entertaining tourguide Gary.
This tour was fascinating. In addition to seeing highly talented street art, our guide provided tremendous insight into the culture and protocols we would never have known without his guidance. It was extremely interesting to hear how street artists get their start, to understand their signature styles, and what drives them. I highly recommend this tour for a totally different way of seeing a piece of London.
We did the Street Art Tour and Spray Painting Workshop led by Josh. It was my friend's 50th Birthday year and I wanted to do something "different" for her. Well a whole new world was opened to us, and we both absolutely loved it ! Even though it was pouring with rain our entire tour, we were both absolutely hooked. Although I can't say we loved all the art on display, we now, I think, "get it" and see it all "as art". So thank you Josh! And the spray painting workshop was super fun!
Brilliant walk around East London seeing some amazing Art, Josh our guide was absolutely fantastic, so knowledgeable and passionate about London Street Art. Josh then facilitated the making of a stencil and the use of spray paints to create our own “street art” in their studio. Really highly recommended and very good value.
A wide range of art, incredibly knowledgeable tour guide, and fun workshop time. As a Londoner, I probably wouldn’t have signed up for a proper street art tour, but my 75 y/o mom wanted to do it and make a “graffiti” tote bag— and it was well worth it! I’m glad we did this tour and highly recommend!
We are a family of 4, ranging from 12-78 yrs old and we all enjoyed the tour and practical street art experience. Laura (herself an artist), is knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide, she was very informative, fun and immensely engaging. She engaged with each member of the group, in fluent English and French, showing awareness and genuine interest in each individual. The content of information was fascinating and well delivered – history and cultural politics and most of all Street Art in abundance of every description and variety of artists. The workshop experience guided by Laura was explained and developed. She encouraged interaction and advice which was both satisfying and fun. A brilliant three hours!
East London surprised me very positively. Our tour guide does street art himself and is fully themed. She told a lot of exciting stories - a great tour. The subsequent workshop was a lot of fun - we worked with templates and produced good results ;) All in all: highly recommended?
The Tour was very intetesting, also regarding history and some insider :) Nice tour guide. And most fun: the painting Workshop
A super experience walking and talking about art. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had good experience using the spray paints. We had a great time.
