We loved our time with Igor. He kept both the adults and kids (8 and 10) engaged for the entire 3 hour tour. We learned a lot about Lisbon street art and saw some streets and parts of Lisbon we wouldn’t experience otherwise. A+ tour with A++ guide. Thank you Igor! Amazing deep dive into Lisbon street art!!

Igor was a fantastic guide to the street art of Lisbon. He is a very knowledgeable member of the street art community, and shared a lot of the back-story, not only about the artworks and their creators, but about the impact each piece has had on the community. Also- the walk was mostly flat, so very much appreciated. Great Walk

Igor is passionate about street art — the movement as a whole, the artists, his own art, and the layers of meaning and self expression of people and the canvases that around Lisboa. His knowledge is deep. His enthusiasm is infectious. He is an expert and entertaining storyteller. Our time together was soul filling, entertaining, with a view of Lisboa (Barriro Grace) that should not be missed. You might come for the monuments, but this tour puts you in the voice of here and now. Highly recommend. For the <3 of Expression

Igor is super friendly, knowledgeable and passionate! It was a great tour, super inspiring, and we discovered streets that we wouldn’t have, even if it was the neighborhood we were staying in (Graça). We learned a lot about the street art culture We also appreciate that we were not always going up and down, the flow was perfect (Lisbon has some hills, you know 😅). Highly recommended!Awesome tour with Igor!

Wir haben eine sehr interessante, vielseitige und inspirierende Tour mit Igor erlebt. Er ist ein charmanter und humorvoll Gastgeber seiner Stadt. Mit seinen Geschichten rund um das Thema Street Art haben wir gelernt, die Stadt mit anderen Augen zu sehen. Spannend und kurzweilig für alle Generationen unserer Gruppe! Dankeschön, Igor!Großartige Street Art Tour!

We thought Igor gave a fascinating insider's look in the world of street, something about which we knew very little - the protocols, the tension between graffiti and art, the world of salesmanship and marketing - a lot about the internet end of digital media. He gave a very generous tour, no hurry, and was obviously as an artist not only knowledgeable about his subject but equally passionate as well. Loved it. Being the only customers on this tour was kind of nice as well. Makes you look at Lisbon in a different way - a world of art hiding in plain view.The parallel universe of street art

Ogor is very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining. We've taken hundreds of tours worldwide, both in groups and private, and Igor truly stands out in his ability to inform and educate. Not only does he share a tremendous amount of information about his specalized subject of street art, but he is also conversant with the history of his home city and the people of Lisbon. We highly recommend him and his tour. Outstanding

He answered our questions with enthusiasm and encouraged us to challenge our preconceptions of what "art" is. I cant say enough good things about this tour and Igor. AMAZING street art tour with Igor

Igor took my wife and son (21) on a walk through Lisbon this week with a focus on street art and it was one of the most interesting and fun experiences in Lisbon. We are not the a family to take tours typically and our time with Igor felt like a walk with a friend who simply knows the city. More importantly, he knows where the interesting street art is as it is a constantly evolving and changing landscape. We learned about many artists and the challenges they face vs "graffiti" and the authorities and various municipalities. I would recommend Igor to everyone even remotely interested in art in Lisbon.Not the typical tour in Lisbon

Igor is passionate and highly knowledgeable not only about street art but about the surrounding associated culture, and Lisbon history, hints and tips and interesting places. Not rehearsed or scripted it’s off the cuff and is an expression of his knowledge. He answers all your questions and would be a go to contact for any information regarding Lisbon!Excellent

We loved our street art tour with Igor! We saw a lot of amazing art and he also taught us about street art culture, both in Lisbon and beyond. In addition, he walked us through some iconic parts of the city we would not have known to visit otherwise. This was more than a street art tour - it was seeing Lisbon through fresh eyes. Igor was also open to adjusting our tour if we needed to rest from all the walking. Highly recommend. Fascinating and unique way to see the city

I must admit that at first I was a bit sceptic. My father booked Igor's tour and I imagined it to be somewhat of a tourist attraction, which I'm generally not a big fan of. In hindsight, I was completely mistaken; from the moment we met Igor, he radiated charisma and created a relaxed and fun vibe. I can honestly say that he is a one of a kind tour guide, his stories were impressive (was able to provide us with new/interesting info for three+ hours straight), he gave us great tips on shops and interesting places and showed us some truly beautiful spots/street art that even some of the locals don't know about (friend of mine is Portuguese and lives partly in Lisbon). For anyone looking to have a great experience and tour in Lisbon or who's generally interested in art/street art, do book a tour provided by Igor. Thanks for the amazing experience man ✌️Awesome tour, awesome stories, great guy

Igor is incredibly knowledgeable and deeply integrated in the street art scene in Lisbon. His passion comes through in his connections and stories around each piece of art he shares with you.

Our walking street art tour with Igor was unreal. During Covid, my partner and I did an online street art tour with Igor and were instantly inspired to come to Lisbon in person to see what the city had to offer, and it didn't disappoint. Having Igor take us in person to the unforgettable works of art scattered throughout the city is something we will never forget! We can't rave about Igor enough....someone with local charm, advice and just pure joy for what he does every day! Simply the best! Thanks Igor....Niall and Nic from Australia!Inspirational Lisbon

My husband and our 9yr old daughter took a great street art tour with Igor in Lisbon. I highly recommend this tour. Igor was open to all of our questions regarding art, culture, history and local restaurants. His enthusiasm for art is infectious and we were excited to find all of the pieces and appreciate from the smallest to the most detailed and highly acclaimed. The city itself offers beautiful art. It was also a great walk to see some of the neighborhoods we may have not seen without him bringing us. He brought us to his favorite falafel place and we had a great snack in between. We actually went back for those falafels on our own that week. He was great with my daughter as well. We highly recommend this tour and was a special part of our trip to this wonderful city.Great experience!

We did several tours in Lissabon. Our Street Art tour with Igor was the best. Maybe because it is topic bound and Igor, who himself is a street artist, really is into and can transport his enthusiasm with every explanation. Maybe it is, because he is an awsome guide and a fine chap and it is reall fun to tour the city with him. Anyway, we had a great time exploring the city and finding lots of great art. Some things we had seen before already roaming around. But with Igors help it became even greater. It finally made sense. So cool, to get the backgrounds, the symbols and the meaning of an art piece explained. The tour left us with an desire to further lookout for more street-art in every city we visit. We learned something. We took something with us. Thanks a lot Igor!Our best tour in Lissabon

We spent 3 hours, and nearly as many miles, with Igor exploring the exciting urban street art of Lisbon. An artist himself, Igor is fully immersed in the cultural developments of the art form and is gregarious and enthusiastic in explaining it to you. By the time the tour was finished, we had been introduced to a dozen or more artists, understood the difference between legal and illegal street art in Lisbon, the ethical code that governs the interactions of the artists, themselves, and now know what internet sites are available to explore the subject in more depth. We had requested that the tour include works of an artist with whom we were familiar. Igor accommodated that request and much more. The cost of the tour was money well-spent.Informative and exhaustive

We all really enjoyed our tour with Igor- he opened our eyes to Lisbon’s street art. We did the tour on our first day and since then we’ve been spotting our favourite artists as we’ve done other things. We thought 3 hours might tire us out but Igor was so interesting and fun to be with, it went in a flash. The tour is well structured, well paced and Igor is charming and speaks excellent English. He is genuinely keen to share his enthusiasm. Would 100% recommend. Fun, engaging tour - highlight of our trip
