Ava was a great tour guide - she provided lots of historical context that helped when taking in all the street art. She's very knowledgeable about the artwork as well, and clearly passionate about it too. Thanks for the fun introduction to a part of London I don't know well.

The London Street Art tour focuses on Graffiti and non-commissioned street art. It uncovers a rich tapestry of such art in East London - truly astounding - and gives information about the artists and the genre in general. All that made it very enjoyable. The downside is that the guide, Kevin, does a wee bit much social commentary. His comments about the tension between street artists and the law were fine, but after seeing how much street art existed, they started to be suspect, and regardless of where my sympathies might lie, I would prefer to simply be presented with facts and left to draw my own conclusions.

Absolutely wonderful tour, it was the highlight of london. Very informative, with an insider’s perspective. Viewed some beautiful, interesting and poignant pieces and learned about London history and contemporary culture. Highly recommend. Gary was a great guide!

This was one of the coolest things I did when visiting London. I appreciated Gary’s knowledge of art, and of the area. He was so personable and I was just so impressed with the company-alternative London. The art work was amazing. I’ve recommended this tour to all my friends! And I will be listening to the podcast!

Great tour of an amazingly rich street art neighborhood. Lots of walking! (We dropped out in the last stretch to sit for a bit). Highly recommend our super knowledgeable guide.

I have taken Alternative London tours a few times over the years and they never disappoint. It is always an interesting, educational and fun experience. The guides are very informed and especially chill. The area has changed a lot over the years, and it is great to go back and see what is new in the street art scene. You might want to stay in the neighborhood afterward to try some of the local restaurants and to see the galleries in the area. I highly recommend!
