Additional Information

On a journey through a city where walls become canvases, artists unravel the mystique, history, methods, norms, and individual tales of graffiti and street art. A thorough history of graffiti and its associated culture.

Berlin’s atmosphere is heavy with aerosol paint. The noise of a spraycan shaking in the quiet of the night constitutes its background audio. A tag can narrate as complex a story as towering murals, and a high-pressure discharge from a fire extinguisher can be as expressive as a centuries-old art piece from a Dutch virtuoso. We’re privy to the historical and cultural aspects of it all. Allow the artists to guide you to the best locations and works, simultaneously providing a broad historical perspective on urban art in its contemporary Mecca.

Witness massive wall arts, high altitude spots, and spray paint graphics. Understand the art of trainbombing and tagging, used stencils, paste-ups, and adhesive arts, along with many more. The tour comprises a visit to the Urban Nation gallery and covers areas like Kreuzberg, Friedrichshain, and Schöneberg.

  • Good walking shoes.
  • An umbrella if raining.
  • Guests should have a metro ticket as public transport is used through out the tour.

Fantastic experience - A tour like this is made or broken by the guide, and Rob was fantastic. Experienced yet fresh, with deep and thoughtful knowledge of a subject that he cares about, and a fantastic dry wit and turn of phrase. I learned a lot about the background to graffitii and street art, the culture, why it is in Berlin, and some of the techniques. It gave me new appreciation, and turned into one of the highlights of my visit to the city. Thank you Rob :-)

A terrific walking tour - Rob was a fantastic tour guide. A graffiti/street artist himself since a young age, he was able to share a lot of personal insights into what the art scene is like and what motivates the artists. He made the discussion lively, funny, and consistently interesting. Great tour! Thank you so much.
