Walking around Bogota’s city center is like walking through a massive open-air street art gallery, dense with social and political commentary. Every block seems to feature a work of art made using spray cans. Some works of art made by amateurs, and others made by incredibly talented artists. All are intriguing!
These works of art come even more alive and take a more profound meaning on and after a tour with the Original Bogota Graffiti Tour.
The tour is a fantastic way to learn about the city, its history and its underlining tension points. You get to see the talent of the street artists, learn about the messages and stories behind the art.
And acquire knowledge about issues such as the discrimination faced by Africans and Indigenous people in the country.
David, the guide on my tour in January 2020 was himself a professional street artist – he was informative, funny, and animated. The city took on an enhanced vibrancy following the graffiti tour.
