Must see art! - It was a great experience to learn more about a local artist that has helped brighten up our community by sharing his incredible art. It was fun to tour the city to find many of his murals! And we were so lucky to have "Henry" join our tour! Roman, who led the tour, had a great energy, was incredibly kind, and was fun to have as a guide! Definitely worth doing as a local or coming from out of town!

A look of Seattle’s art world! - The tour was filled with beautiful murals and fun little tidbits of Seattle history. Ryan Henry Ward, the artist, even made a surprise visit on the tour!

Great experience with visiting parents! - Took my parents on this tour to show them the quirky side of Seattle. Tour guide and driver were incredibly friendly and the entire tour was very engaging. Very fun way and unique way to learn about the history of murals in general in Seattle and see the neighborhoods from a different perspective. My dad is disabled and the driver was very considerate when pulling over for stops. The stops were well timed at a brewery and at a quick drink/food spot. I’ve recommended this experience to my friends as a great activity with visiting parents.

Henry Mural Tour experience - The Henry tour was awesome! Our guide, Roman, was so cool, and you can tell he is passionate about the art. We visited dozens of the artist's murals throughout the city, as well as his gallery/gift shop. His caricatures are sure to bring a smile to your face and he makes Sasquatch look like someone you'd love to meet. And you can visit some primo watering holes to wet your lips and fill your belly. If you are in Seattle, and have a few hours, you can't go wrong with this tour.

Wonderful tour - Our group of 5 had a great time. The tour guide, David, was very informative and funny. He did a great job of explaining the reason for the characters in each mural and also explained the history of the Seattle neighborhoods. There were two pleasant surprises not mentioned in the tour description. #1: Tour stops at Ruebens Brewery to sample beer, use the bathroom, and look at a fabulous mural inside. #2: We stopped at Flatstick Pub to look at more Henry art and eat lunch. We didn’t expect a lunch stop, Our tour ended at 3 pm instead of 2 pm. Which was no problem for our group. But if you take this tour, I recommend not having an appointment immediately after 2 pm.

More than a mural tour!! - David, the tour guide was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable of Seattle history. The tour is fabulous because it points out not only Henry’s murals but other murals. I was shocked after living in Seattle since 1981 how many murals I had missed in my own city! The tour is so much more than simply driving by murals. David’s enthusiasm for the art, and art history of Seattle is so contagious. A great trip for Seattleites and visitors!!!

Very interesting! - I loved seeing so many of the Henry murals in one go! They are full of life and have a whimsical, uplifting feeling about them. David Roman was a perfect fit as the tour guide, and his knowledge and enthusiasm for Henry's work was obvious. It was a joy to go on this tour, and I would definitely recommend it!

Wizards, and Sasquatch, and Squids - Oh My! - We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Henry Mural Tour! Roman, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgable about the city and Henry. It was a great three hour trip around town, where we learned about Henry and the Henry Murals, the importance of art to the city of Seattle, and the neighborhoods of the city. There were multiple stops along the way, a few that were short stops for a few minutes to get to take some more time with the mural we were viewing, and a few that were longer. The longer stops included a stop at a local brewery, with the opportunity to grab a quick drink (and they had the perfect 4oz size for the amount of time we were there), a stop at a restaurant that has Henry's work inside where you could have a bite to eat, and Henry's gallery! Roman has taken the time and effort to create a wonderful tour, highlighting over 20 works of this prolific artist. He was incredibly personable, and we loved getting to hear about his own fascinating connections to the Seattle (and larger) art scene. I loved it so much, I'd happily go again and again!

Fascinating Tour of Henry's Murals in Seattle - We had a wonderful time! We toured throughout Seattle, stopping to look at one fantastical mural after another. We must have seen over 20 murals on houses, businesses, garages, and even a community garden! Roman, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about Henry's work and the art scene in Seattle. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon. I highly recommend it!
