Bristol: Banksy and the home of street art
Bristol · United Kingdom
from 15 £ per person
You'll walk through the centre of Bristol. You'll see the first walls painted by Banksy, the world's most famous street artist. You'll see a street that became one big painting. You'll see a teddy bear throwing a bottle of fire. You'll see a girl with a burglar alarm for an earring. Everything is on the street — nothing in a gallery. We walk slowly. We stop whenever you want.
What you'll see
- Well Hung Lover — Banksy's naked man on a Frogmore Street wall
- Nelson Street, turned into one big outdoor painting
- The Mild Mild West — Banksy's teddy bear in Stokes Croft
- Girl with a Pierced Eardrum, Banksy's Vermeer by the harbourside
What's included
- Local English-speaking guide
- Walking tour of the centre, Stokes Croft and the harbourside
- Stops to rest and look at the murals without rushing
Who it's for
For anyone who wants to discover Banksy's home city on foot, without rushing: lovers of street art, photography and the stories of a city that paints its own walls.
