London’s street art is beautifully ephemeral and transforming constantly.

With your expert tour guide, you will explore the ever-changing walls of the Shoreditch area – where shipping containers become shopping malls and train carriages are transformed into artist studios. The favourite haunt of hipsters, Shoreditch is also a veritable treasure trove of street art.
From scrawled tags to stunning murals, stencilled stick men to giant intricate animals, immerse yourself in this vibrant sea of creativity. Sometimes political, often humorous, and always imaginative, your time on this art tour will transform the way you view scribbles along walls in every city.
East London – especially Brick Lane – is synonymous with the subculture, street art and graffiti. It is also amazing for foodies, fashionistas, and bargain hunters.
As you walk along Brick Lane and its off-shoot streets with your private guide, you’ll learn all about the history of Spitalfields Market, Whitechapel and Shoreditch.
