Free Graffiti Tour in Bogota

We will meet up at the time of your choice in Chorro de Quevedo, the iconic square of the La Candelaria neighborhood. The winding streets that surround it are home to a large collection of graffiti artwork. We will set off to discover this amazing urban art of Bogota!

We will stroll through the area, stopping in front of these spray-painted murals and trying to decipher their meanings. You will find that, in addition to their bright colors, many of these artworks also have fascinating stories behind their creation which dates back to the 1980s.

The tour will continue with a visit to an urban art gallery in La Candelaria, where we will delve into the history, evolution, and important of this artistic trend in cities across the globe from Miami to Amsterdam. In Latin America, this type of street art stands out especially in Rio de Janeiro, Mexico City, and, of course, Bogota.

And after two and a half hours on foot, we will conclude the free tour of the Colombian capital with a well-deserved delicious coca leaf tea.

Explicación muy completa. Nathy dominaba el tema y explica muchos aspectos culturales de los grafittis en Colombia. Se ve que le gusta mucho lo que hace. El número del grupo me pareció adecuado ya que no era muy grande y permitía interactuar. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. Translate this opinion into English.

Nati fue muy buena onda, nos explicó muy bien y al ver personas de idioma inglés y español se esforzó en explicar todo en ambos idiomas. La lluvia nos jugo mal pero es parte de la experiencia! El lugar final (toma de te) esta sencillo pero lindo con aun más murales. Recomendación siempre llevar sombrilla (: Translate this opinion into English.

Nati was very friendly, she explained things very well and seeing people who spoke English and Spanish she made an effort to explain everything in both languages. The rain was bad for us but it is part of the experience! The final place (tea) is simple but nice with even more murals. I recommend always bringing an umbrella (: Opinion translated.
