Street Art Walking Tour Tijuca Neighborhood

By walk
About this activity
The meeting point is in the Tijuca neighborhood and is easily accessed by underground or taxi. This experience was born out of love for art and the artists who chose the streets as their canvas to tell their story. This 2-hour walking tour hands all of this knowledge to participants on a plate; including the intimate stories behind Rio’s urban art scene.
Our host reveals all about her perspective on the history and meaning of urban art. From the graffiti writing process itself, such as the differences between “fatcap” and “skinnycap”, to the use of other media. She reveals how to read a “bomb” or “throw up”, who the graffiti crews are, and where they base themselves in the city.
Going on the Rio Street Art Tour is much more than just looking at some urban art: it’s choosing to take part in an experience, with great company, hosted by a professional who loves her work, and is always on the lookout for new ways to create special moments.
