Itinerary
Fans of street art (graphic arts who express themselves in the street), rejoice, Bushwick has become the field of choice for the best graffiti artists in the world, it is a real open-air museum! And this is even more true since the site of 5 Pointz (former outdoor art space located at Hunters Point) was razed. And if you do not know street art well or have a bad image of it, you are given the opportunity to better understand this mode of expression born in the 1970s (in New York precisely!), An art that has never ceased '' evolve to the point of being considered today as equal with the work of the most recognized plastic artists. Besides, the name of Banksy, one of the most emblematic graffiti artists, may not be foreign to you ...
And what about Williamsburg, this district where hipsters take the time more than ever to live and launch new fashions in spite of themselves… Vintage shops, trendy coffee shops, organic artisans… Williamsburg is an invitation to slow down, to take your time , and rediscover the taste for simple and natural things.

We loved our visit with Audrey! We were able to appreciate and understand more about street art and the history of the Bushwick neighborhood as well as that of Williamsburg. Audrey is a very enthusiastic guide who perfectly conveys her knowledge about these neighborhoods and allows us to appreciate them even more! We greatly appreciated our visit, which we highly recommend! Thank you, Audrey 🫶
Wonderful visit. A great guide. Thank you, Aymeric, for this discovery, for all your comments, and for introducing us to some artists who were in the process of creating. We had a wonderful time with you. A thousand thanks for everything. I recommend you 200%. Christine and Dominique
Very nice visit. Aymeric waited for us despite our delay and made the visit a very pleasant moment. We hope to have the opportunity to do more visits with him and Voyage en Français.
A walk to Buschwick and Williamsburh as we imagined. Aymerick knew how to make this morning super friendly, relaxing and above all interesting. Between the history of Street Art, his vision of New York, his passion for photography (very useful for this visit) and his super open mindset, Aymerick knew how to convey his passion for guiding and all his enthusiasm. The icing on the cake, it is Bordeaux like us which made the moments super fun. Dedication of the dwarf drugged and pimpoye! gavé proud and thank you for the photos!
Interesting and well documented visit. Our guide Fred , passionate and dynamic, knew how to communicate his enthusiasm and did not count his time . A truly unforgettable experience!
Excellent time, very pleasant visit! Thanks to Aymeric we will keep intact memories of the circuit taken. Thanks again!
We loved the ride with Aymeric. It was as if we were with a friend who showed us his favorite corners, the anecdotes to know, and especially the things you don’t see if you are alone. We felt like locals! Aymeric is very generous and friendly, I really recommend this tour to anyone wishing to discover New York and Brooklyn off the beaten track.
We loved this discovery of street art in bushwick with Aymeric. He has succeeded in attracting our youngest and his anecdotes are always exciting. Complementing the tour with the lively life of williamsburg with cookie tastings and ending with beautiful final views of East Manhattan was a plus. Thanks to marina who advised us this visit and thanks to Aymeric who made us want to come back!
We had Marie in guide for about 3 hours, in the rain, with cold. Marie sweats her love for NYC, caring, warm for explanations, etc. A pleasure to understand the anecdotes of the neighborhood, NYC. A big thank you to Elle
Great tour of the neighborhood! I highly recommend to anyone who wants to discover a piece of New York with a guide who will give you lots of tips of neighborhood anecdotes and who will tell you about its history!
