Valencia: Street Art Tour on Bicycle, E-Bike or E-Step

Get ready to experience a different side of Valencia—one painted with stories, politics, humor, and rebellion. This 2-hour street art tour by bike takes place in El Carmen, the city’s most artistic and expressive district.

We start with murals that commemorate the Great Flood of 1957—an event that shaped El Carmen’s future. After the flood, many buildings were left empty or damaged. But with low rent came opportunity: young artists began to move in, and over time, this forgotten corner of the city transformed into a giant open-air gallery.

As we ride through the district’s narrow alleys and sunny squares, you’ll discover a living canvas of street art. From giant walls covered in surreal creatures to tiny hidden tags that blend into doorways, every turn has something to say.

Your guide will introduce you to local legends like Escif, often called the “Valencian Banksy,” as well as other brilliant artists like David de Limón, Julieta XLF, Arqui Costura, Deih, and Hyuro. You’ll learn how they use the walls to speak up about politics, fantasy, feminism, identity, and everyday life.

Expect lots of stops, time for photos, and curious questions. No two tours are ever exactly the same—because the art changes. That’s part of the fun.

This isn’t just a tour. It’s a colorful, clever, and deeply human look at Valencia’s underground culture—and the neighborhood that gave it a voice.
