Guided by a local graffiti specialist, you'll hear information about the mural artworks developed at Ibaiondo district, as well as hidden stories about the cities' graffiti community.

Reviews found on the internet about our team's job

If you have been intrigued by the colorful street art you’ve seen walking around Bilbao you need to book this tour. Even though Javier lead us to see the street art, his style of teaching and questioning made me feel as if I were the one making the discoveries! Thanks to his recommendations, on my later walks around the city that evening I was able to identify different artists by style and subject matter. Javier knows the neighborhoods and even ties in the current social and political context making for a complete experience.

Ana was my guide and I really enjoyed how she wove in super local and broader Basque history with the street art tour. I learned a lot about the area of the tour as well as the street art style and the local graffiti community in Bilbao. I also have a new appreciation of the skills of street artists and that spray paint is not a simple medium! Highly recommended!

Javier was our host and did a great job! He provided a great experience by showing us different types of street art and gave a lot of context to get familiar with Bilbao's culture. He seemed to have deep knowledge about local and world famous artists. He was full of insights and tips how to appreciate street art. It was our first walking tour in Bilbao and we like it much more than classic one full of standard tourist attractions around Casco Viejo. I can highly recommend it to feel the real, and down to Earth, Bilbao.
