What To Expect

Grab a cup of joe to go after joining your group at a local Bushwick, Brooklyn coffee shop to keep you warm on this outdoor tour. Meet with your guide who knows the city streets like the back of his or her hand and take to the pavement where creativity and color flow with an energy that’s unlike any other place on earth.

Listen to your guide describe the borough’s impressive street art scene and growing appreciation for the urban artists who venture from across the globe to make their mark in public spaces here. Wander past some of the borough’s best murals and check out examples of street art that cover brick walls, lampposts and street signs. 

Gain a better understanding of what is a truly unique art form on this up-close urban adventure, where the neighborhood’s graffiti culture is recognized as one of the world’s best. Learn about different techniques—from wheatpaste posters to tags and stencils—from your expert guide and increase awareness of the signature styles of some of the top street artists. 

The tour ends on Bogart Street, where travelers can revel in a newfound appreciation for graffiti and the quirky personalities of top artists that make Bushwick worth wandering.

Street art in Brooklyn
Carolyn_T, Feb 2023
My son and I loved it. We learned how the international art world came together to create art in Brooklyn. Each piece was unique and gave voice to art and the community. Bravo!

Thank you so much for attending!
Worth it if you are into street art
Jason_W, Dec 2022
Our guide was very welcoming and knowledgeable, the tour is quite fast paced, you may want to give yourself another 1-2hrs to re-walk the route and take time to stand back and appreciate some of the masterpieces. Tour was approx. 1hr 45, easy meeting directions, viator kept us updated via email of any changes etc
