Brilliant. Laura was an excellent guide - hugely knowledgeable and her passion for street art and the stories behind the art plus artists was really interesting. The tour was great - just the right amount of interaction and information - Laura did a brilliant job at making everyone in the group feel welcome. The workshop session afterwards was also really good. One of the best day trips to London for my godson and I - would thoroughly recommend. Thank you!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate. She lives and breathes this, you can tell - and that is so exciting when diving into a world you have no idea exists. I'm sorry I cannot remember her name (Amy? Abbie?) sorry 🙄 I've seen parts of London I didn't know existed, I enjoyed feeling the atmosphere and getting beneath the surface of what I would ordinarily overlook. The art and the meanings behind it suddenly make the streets come alive! Then to do some street art in a local studio yourself! What an experience!

Really informative, like our own private tour for a world-class art gallery. I loved it as did my 10 and 13-year-old.
