★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 31 reviews · 2 hours · from $14Best value

Walk Tirana with an English-speaking local guide, including K, to read the stories behind murals, graffiti, modern buildings, and political art. The two-hour route begins at the Opera House steps, visits Skanderbeg Square, and returns to the starting point. Bring a camera and look closely at street signs.

“Highly recommend! We’d already been in Tirana for 3 days when we took the architecture/street art tour. This tour helped me re-see many things I’d pass by before without fully understanding & then look more closely at other architecture & art during the rest of my week’s stay. So interesting & relevant in understanding the larger influences at work in Tirana 2025.👍”

Join architect and guide Philipp for a bilingual English and German walk through Schwabing’s Jugendstil streets, then use stencils and spray paint to make four postcards inspired by Munich’s Art Nouveau façades. The relaxed group has a maximum of 12 people.

“What a great and fun tour. Phillip was so friendly and informative about the different building/art styles. It was great to walk around and see the very different types of art deco - some mixed with baroque influence others more modern etc. We got to stop for a coffee/toilet first those that needed. We took our coffee to the last stop - the English Garden for the spray painting activity. This was so much fun and I was a little nervous but Phillip made it so easy - could happily have carried on for another 2 hours!!”

★★★★★★★★★★3.0 · 2 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $97

Walk through Porto’s art scene with a private English-speaking guide, visiting the Faculty of Fine Arts, Cedofeita, Bonfim, and Rua Miguel Bombarda. You’ll see murals, galleries, public sculpture, and urban art, then share a glass of port wine. Guide Gonçalo is identified as the specialist for this route.

“The tour that we received was a regular city tour. I showed our guide the itinerary at the beginning of the tour and he had no idea that his company offered such a tour. He said he would be covering most of the items on the list. He did not. He was delightful but we did not get what we booked. I would contact the tour operator before the tour and make clear what you expect.”
