Our Montréal street art and graffiti tour covers local and international artists. The works range from small installations your guide will point out to massive works 10 storeys tall. We learn about techniques and the meaning behind the pieces and the talented artists.
Our city is home to the largest concentration of artists in the country, find out why. We’ll see street styles like wheat pastes and some mains and classics of the borough. This is a zigzag walk through the streets and alleys with a local guide in the know. The area is like an outdoor art gallery you can continue to explore on your own after we hand you our recommendations list for the best restaurant and bars in Montréal etc.
This is the OG Montréal mural tour that led others to follow in our footsteps. Great for locals and visitors and super popular with corporate and school groups.

5.00Really incredible way to see the Plateau’s large scale art murals. We would have missed so many of these had we tried to do it on our own. Our guide Mel, was full of information and passionate about the subject. So fun and interesting and well with the time and cost. Thank you!!!

5.00Chris was such a personable, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable tour guide for our Montreal Murals Arts tour! We learned a lot about Montreal's annual mural festival and got to see some very striking and amazing art (both new and old) along the tour; there was such a range of styles and themes to appreciate. We really enjoyed learning about the artists and the energy of the festival too. Chris's passion for the murals and for Montreal was evident. Would definitely recommend people interested in street art and culture take this tour!
