Fantastic street art experience
Laura was a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. We learned so many unique facts about the area and the street art. Definitely recommend.
via Viator
A first rate tour of street art through the eyes of an artist and street artist.
Ava was our guide. She was an excellent guide. She has a deep and thorough knowledge of street art, on a historical basis, as an artist and street artist who lives in the community, and as someone who has a podcast connected to street art. She engages well, is open to and answers all questions, and had good energy for the entire 2 hours of our tour. It was a pleasure and education to take the tour with Ava.

So happy to have taken...
So happy to have taken the tour. We learned so much about street art, its forms, styles, artists, etiquette, etc. Brick Lane is the epicenter of street art. Eva (sp?) our tour guide was excellent. Highly recommend!

A fascinating introduction to street art
Laura was animated and passionate about her subject, differentiating between graffiti and street art, and explaining its cultural and political significance. She knew many of the artists involved and had a number of personal anecdotes. A well-worthwhile tour, exploring an area of London which we might never have done.

The Original London Street Art Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does The Original London Street Art Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $27 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does The Original London Street Art Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is The Original London Street Art Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 351 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule The Original London Street Art Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is The Original London Street Art Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The Original London Street Art Tour?
+
Around 123 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The Original London Street Art Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in The Original London Street Art Tour?
+
Included: Professional guide. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for The Original London Street Art Tour?
+
We meet under the statue of the White Goat on Brushfield Street, just by Old Spitalfields Market Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is The Original London Street Art Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for The Original London Street Art Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is The Original London Street Art Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to The Original London Street Art Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in London. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
