Excellent tour by Matt; he was very clear in telling the history of the murals and who created them.
It was nice to visit unknown parts of the city and see the street art. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about what we saw. What was disappointing is that it was published that it will be 2.5 hrs tour and it was just less than 1.5. We were surprised it suddenly ended.
Hi Robi, thanks for your feedback about the tour & kind words about our guide Cecilia. The duration of our tours can vary a little depending on the size of the group & whether the guide makes the decision to walk faster or slower according to the weather conditions. Sincere apologies that the tour did finish a bit earlier than it should have done. I understand one person in the group wasn't feeling well due to it being an unusually hot & humid day. This should have been explained to you clearly & you should also have been offered the chance to see more street art. Hope you are able to check out some of the recommendations to see other cool murals in different parts of the city that I sent you. Thanks & kind regards, Matt
Very lovely and unique experience with Cecilia ! It was great to see murals and hear the stories about artists and their ideas. Beautiful and very peaceful neighborhood very much out of regular touristy areas. I would recommend to try it.
My daughter and I went on the Saturday afternoon street art tour and it was fantastic! We saw very interesting art in a really nice neighborhood most tourists wouldn't go to since it is not often written about. Matt is a fantastic guide that knows so much and is well connected to the street art scene. I liked it so much that I booked a private car tour of other street art that was both affordable and great! I would absolutely recommend the tour!
Matt is terrifically knowledgeable, charming, attentive, and passionate about art. It was an absolute pleasure to be in his company and for him to have shared his vast knowledge about street art in Buenos AIres. He is exceptionally well suited for his chosen career and we were his lucky and appreciative beneficiaries.
We spent a fantastic two hours plus walking around a small neighbourhood of Buenos Aires on the street art walking tour. We were a small group of around 8 people, led by Matt who works directly with street artists and who was very knowledgeable. There was plenty of opportunity to ask questions and we learned a lot about different artists and media, as well as the history of street art and graffiti in the city.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Not only was this a unique opportunity to explore some lesser known supberbs, but our guide, Matt, was knowledgeable, interesting and super friendly. It was so interesting to hear the many stories behind the art work and their artists, and to learn more about the work Matt's company do. Thank you Matt! Great experience. Highly recommend.
Matt’s involvement in street art was evident- so glad he shared details and highlights of artists, mediums, timeframes as well as history. Incredibly fun to stroll neighborhoods, experience art with a knowledgeable guide!
I wanted to thank Matt for his energy and for the exciting visit carried out from start to finish; more than 2 hours of who passed too fast. The transmission was a success. Respect. 🙏
Such an interesting tour and a really unique way to see the city. The tour was full of energy, interesting stories, great background and covered a lot of ground. It was a wonderful experience - we highly recommend it!
Thanks Uri for coming on our tour & for your generosity in supporting our organisation to sponsor more murals in the city
