Value added street art tour - The real value of this tour is your guide has lived and breathed street art. He has the knowledge to explain and show great examples of Melbourne street art something you would never get on your own. The tour I think was great value for money, I would recommend this experience.

Melbourne Street Art - An eye opening view of the street art subculture! I doubt that most people would be able to see the difference between graffiti (bad) and street art (good) without this experience! Our guide did a great job at explaining street art and I do recommend you check it out!

Seeing street art. In context - We loved this tour! Our guide’s knowledge of many of the artists and the culture of street art made for a fascinating and eye opening experience. We definitely would not have appreciated what we were seeing without Ben’s insights and explanations. The studio visit was an excellent end point to the tour, making real the relationship between street art and other art forms.

Best thing to do In Melbourne - Ben our guide was the best , knowledgeable about all aspects of street art and just an absolute legend himself . Street art is forever changing , sometimes art is replaced within 20 mins so the tour is never the same .

Street art Tour for all...not just tourists. - The tour isn't just for tourists, we are both locals with an art background. We wanted to explore the street art scene with someone who works on the inside. There was lots of info about styles, experience, method, and discovering hidden little gems around the city was great. The tour ended back at Blender Studios where about 18 artists work. We had wine, cheese, a tour of the studio and great conversation.
Thanks for an excellent experience.

Art and the alleys - Fun walking tour of alleys and art we never would have found on our own, with super explanations of the history and artists from guide Tom (himself an artist).
