LONDON STREET ART WALKING TOUR.

The London Street Art Walking Tour.

 In case you didn't know East London is one of London's most celebrated graff/ street art hotspots, so naturally the tour starts at Old Street, meanders about Brick Lane and its surrounding cavities, and finishes at Liverpool Street. The urban equivalent of rare birdspotting, except this tour's attractions don't scare quite so easily. And while you're ogling next door's authentic D*Face, you can pop in and see us, RIGHT?
