Denver Graffiti Tour

Overview

Denver Graffiti Tour is a 2-hour walking showcase of Denver's best murals and street art (and some of the best in the country). Learn the story behind the art and how the rapidly changing RiNo neighborhood has affected the art and its long-time residents. Whether visiting Denver for the first time or a Mile High native, you'll see the street art and this neighborhood in a new light.

We end at the Denver Central Market, a gourmet food hall where you can eat or drink at one of the 10 eateries.

(Oh, and we offer custom times and private tours. Inquire by email or phone.)

Guided Tour

Additional Info

Wheelchair accessible
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Service animals allowed
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
The majority of the walking tour is paved. There are one or two sections that may go over hard-packed dirt. And we also go down an alleyway for a few blocks that sometimes has debris and/or glass. We have had many strong people in wheel chairs on the tour with no problems, but those in wheel chairs without a lot of strength may find it difficult in certain sections.

What To Expect

RiNo Art District

Tour-goers will be guided on foot through the RiNo Art District to see some of the best murals and street art in the country. We'll stop at anywhere from 20-30 pieces, but you'll see nearly 100. (And we love questions about all of it.) We'll also stop to discuss the neighborhood's rapid change has brought new hip businesses but also contributed to the displacement of long-time residents ... and has had an effect on the art. We'll end at Denver Central Market (about a 1/2 mile from the start) where you can grab food or drink from any of the gourmet food hall's 10 restaurants.

Two 60-somethings & two just-30s and all agreed this was a not-to-be-missed tour. Yes, you can go to RiNo on your own & see lots of street art, but the context & history provided made for a much deeper & more nuanced experience. Our guide didn't omit the local politics of the neighborhood, either. And the art itself - wow. And most of it changes every year or two, so if you've seen it but not recently, don't cheat yourself — go again. Oh - and plenty of opportunities to use the bathroom or grab a cup of coffee if 10 am is a bit early for a weekend.

I highly recommend the Denver Graffiti Tour. It was a great way to explore and learn about an area of the city while taking in some amazing street art - it’s more than just murals. Our tour guide was Lauren and she was a lot of fun. Recommended.

We certainly think of ourselves as a tour of one of Denver's most interesting neighborhoods. It just happens to be told through street art. Thanks for coming out!

We went on this tour hopeful ... but not necessarily with high expectations. The tour exceeded our expectations. The tour guide went above and beyond the call of duty to place the many, many beautiful and interesting pieces of street art and graffiti in context. In addition, the tour ended at the Denver Central Market where there were a variety of places serving food worth considering -- we bought our lunch at the Izzio Bakery in the Denver Central Market, which had some great dishes for vegetarians.

We certainly do our best to tell the story of a neighborhood and a place as it is right now and do so through street art. We're glad that came through and happy you had a good time. Cheers!
