Full description
Stroll through the colorful streets of Palermo in Buenos Aires on a guided walking tour. See thought-provoking graffiti and street art while learning about the neighborhood’s history from your guide.   Travel back in time to the 1920's and understand the political movements gaining traction in Argentina at the time. Discover how graffiti was seen as political endorsement and how it was used as propaganda and for election campaigns.   Then, learn about the arrival of aerosol paints in 1969 and the influence of a different military government. Discover how the new material allowed messages to be written much faster than before and how this impacted the urban movements during the 1970's. Listen to stories about how Argentinians became progressively more involved in the act of protesting and the social conflict of the time.

Tiago was an excellent guide. He only told us at the end that this was his first tour. He allowed his personality to come out, had good command of the subject matter and was an able leader. He conducted an excellent tour and made it interesting. Thank you.

This is a fascinating tour by the most amazing and authentic tour guide Juan ♥️ I would definitely recommend blindly! It was an incredible walk around Palermo, appreciating the beautiful art and hearing all the incredible stories behind the murals and also learning more about Argentinian history. It was so amazing that I decided to stay one more night in this incredible city and booked another - San Telmo Tour by Juan- the next day :) would 100% recommend it.
