Denver Graffiti Tour
On this top-rated two-hour walking tour of the city’s graffiti and street art, discover the city’s cultural underground hiding in plain sight. We live right here and personally know the artists + art. So you'll learn the real stories about the art, artists and neighborhoods, including how Denver has changed and how that’s affected the art being made and the people who live here. This tour opens up a new and unsung side of Denver.
We give people a class on street art, and an introduction to some of Denver's history, and some of the tensions and discussions within the communities and cultures here.
Whether visiting Denver for the first time or a Mile High native, you'll see the street art and this neighborhood in a new light.
Plus, we end at the Denver Central Market, a gourmet food hall where you can eat or drink at one of the 10 eateries -- or easily explore the other incredible bars, restaurants, shops.
(And! We offer custom times and private tours. Inquire by email or phone.)

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
RiNo Art District
Tour-goers will be guided on foot through the RiNo Art District to see some of the best murals and street art in the country. We'll stop at anywhere from 20-30 pieces, but you'll see nearly 100. (And we love questions about all of it.) We'll also stop to discuss the neighborhood's rapid change has brought new hip businesses but also contributed to the displacement of long-time residents ... and has had an effect on the art. We'll end at Denver Central Market (about a 1/2 mile from the start) where you can grab food or drink from any of the gourmet food hall's 10 restaurants.
