Shandu really was the Man! He provided so much perspective and history and went above and beyond. Great to have an OriGinator telling you the story from way back when.

Our guide, Hector, was much more than a guide. He was a working artist who had been on the scene for many years. I arrived, thinking graffiti was just a 15-year-old kid with a can of spray paint and left, appreciating the artistic quality of these murals. Hector had the knowledge to point out the many nuances of the artwork and what they represented. This tour is a gem.

This was a great tour. Who knew there was so much to learn about the differences and etiquette of graffiti art. We spent 2 1/2 hours just walking a couple of blocks with a local artist and viewed so much street art. When you really stop and study this street art you can really appreciate what amazing artists some of these people have become. I highly recommend this as something to do in LA. I now find myself looking at graffiti much differently and have a much greater appreciation of the art form.

Kevin was a great tour guide. As an artist working in the area, he had in-depth knowledge of the area's history, artwork in the area, and the artists themselves. It's much better than just walking around and looking at the art yourself. For example, there are hidden gems throughout the area you may not otherwise notice. And just what do some of those tags mean on the art? You'll learn about that and about graffiti art culture. The tour is well worth the cost!
