Unique and interesting way to get to know Montreal - loved all the stories, education and history Danny shared with us on the walking tour! We covered a lot of styles and ground, and noticed more murals as we walked around the rest of our trip. Highly recommend as a unique way to get to know Montreal.

Unforgivable journey through creativity and expression - If you’re looking to immerse yourself in the vibrant tapestry of montréalais urban art, look no further than Danny’s Non Touristy Mural and Street Art Tour. Our guide’s expertise in mural paintings and graffiti transformed our tour into an unforgivable journey through creativity and expression. Rodrigo not only navigated us through the bustling streets adorned with captivating murals, but also offered rich insights into the artists’ inspirations and techniques. His passion for the subject was infectious, igniting our appreciation for the beauty found in every brushstroke and spray can. He was at ease conversing with adults and charmingly engaging as he chatted with the children on the tour, eliciting observations and comparisons to their middle school level art expertise. From hidden alleyways to bustling street corner, Rodrigo curated an experience that revealed the heartbeat of the city through its art. His enthusiasm and knowledge transformed what could have been a mere sightseeing excursion into a profound exploration of culture and community. (Speaking of alleyways, we witnessed our guide in surprise as he looked at a painting, exclaiming “this was not here yesterday!”) If you’re ready to uncover the soul of the city through its vibrant Street Art scene, Rodrigo is the perfect choice. Prepare to be inspired, amazed and enlightened on a journey. You’ll remember long after the paint has dried.

Great tour - The tour guide Mel brought the wall art to life with her knowledge of, and passion for, not just the artwork but also the artists and their connections to the neighborhoods we visited. Was an outstanding tour.
