Excellent, engaging tour. Learned so much! - Tour took around 1 hour and 45 minutes….it went really quickly! I’m not usually a fan of walking tours l, but Ava was an excellent tour guide - knowledgeable, engaging and passionate about street art. My 25 year old son and me learned loads. I’ll never walk past a wall with art, signatures, names and stickers without seeing them in a new light from now on. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you Ava

A must do tour for your stay in London a chance to learn about a vibrant art form from a great crew. - Our tour with Eva was great and provided insights into street art and its scene which We were not aware of. It was a treat to have a member of the London street art scene explaining the origins of street art as well as the many different forms of street art to be found.
In addition to much information and so maybe examples of incredible art Eva also told us a lot about east end and its history. Definitely worth the money and time and a must do for a visit to London.

Fantastic insider information on this London Street Art tour! - This tour was everything I wanted and more. Ava Joy, our tour guide, is super knowledgeable as a street artist herself.
Her passion for the subject was apparent as she explained the history of street art as well as current trends and answered all our questions like a pro.
Definitely recommend for anyone interested in street art.
