Street Art that's amazing - This was a fantastic walking tour around Glasgow. We saw alot of the Street Art on many of the buildings. Caron our guide was very knowledge and friendly. She also knows some of the artist and gave us some insight into their work. The art is amazing and worth the walking tour. Loved it and definitely recommend it. You just get a great feeling at looking at it and how much work the artist did to display their talents. This is a must, if you are visiting Glasgow. Thank you Caron for such a great tour.

Great tour with Vas! - I had a great experience on the Glasgow Street Art walking tour. Our guide, Vas, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject matter, which made for a great experience despite the rainy weather. We saw several stunning murals. I had considered doing a self-guided tour of some of the murals, but I’m so glad I chose to have someone else curate the experience with just the right mix of pieces and a bit of additional detail on the context and history for each work. I’d gladly join another tour next time I’m in the area.

Interesting murals linked with culture - We enjoyed hearing details of the murals including who made them and the meaning behind why they were done. Inexperienced & young guide with energy & political viewpoints.
