About this Event

🧾 Event Description

See Toronto’s streets like an open-air gallery.

Join a local guide from Tour Guys for a 90-minute walk through Toronto’s vibrant Queen Street West and Graffiti Alley. We’ll explore bold murals, ever-changing street art, political messages, and the underground culture that fuels the city’s most creative district.

You’ll hear how graffiti took over back alleys, the stories behind iconic pieces, and the surprising role of corporate commissions, social movements, and local legends.

This is a Pay What You Feel tour—there’s no fixed price. At the end of the tour, you decide what the experience was worth and tip your guide accordingly.

However: To reserve your spot, we require a small, non-refundable $6 booking fee.This helps us keep group sizes small and avoid no-shows.
