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.)

What's Included

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.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

My husband and I took the Denver Graffiti tour and although we live here in Denver, we still learned something new about the awesome art (and artists) who work here. I appreciated the cultural context of the RiNo neighborhood as well. Would definitely recommend others take this tour!

Thanks for coming out to explore. We know what you mean about learning something new. We're seeing new things all the time ... and we do the tour a couple times a week!

Our tour guide, Erin, was SUPER knowledgable about all of the street art and murals (and the people behind them) throughout the area. I was really impressed! She took us on a walking tour down main streets, through back alleys, under overhangs, and even up a random set of stairs. The tour was largely focused on street art and neighborhood murals, not graffiti, which was great for us. I took a group of middle school students on a field trip on a weekday and Erin was accommodating to our schedule and was flexible when I asked the morning of our tour if we could cut the time in half due to the heat. Most amazing of all, Denver Graffiti Tours offers this engaging experience FREE for school groups!

So great having you and the kids out there! We love sharing the art -- both noticeable and hidden -- especially with younger ones who always seem to have a different perspective than our other groups. Cheers!

This tour was informative and fun. There was some light walking while gazing at beautiful and interesting street art and graffiti in Denver while learning about the artist, the piece, and the history of the area. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area or interested in art.
