Pedro knew so much about the artists, the history of the art, and so much more. We saw a lot and learned a lot from him. Lisbon has art in soany places, but street art is unique and often hidden in plain sight.

We had a great 1/2 day with Pedro. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and spoke perfect English. We were beginners in the world of street art and learned a ton from him. We really enjoyed his stories and found ourselves continue to seek out additional murals even after the tour ended
Great guide to some truly impressive sights. Minivan between sites throughout the city. He was knowledgeable explaining street art and answering questions
Lisbon is full of street arts. The city is encouraging artists to come and paint the walls. But how do they pick the walls and artists? The politics behind street art and the context the artist are using? The Real Lisbon Street Art Tour is managed and delivered by experts who passionate by street arts. We learned a lot and had an enjoyable time. Thanks Pedro and Thanks Ze Miguel!
Pedro gave us a good understanding of Lisbon street art.I expected better.Some of the art was rather dull.The 20 minute ride to a housing project was a tad too much..On the other hand street art is usually not in the best neighborhoods.It just did not do it for me.
Guide very knowledgable, drives through Lisbon well, easy meet for tour, Sunday is a great day to go , less traffic, saw Lisbon in a new way
We were to be in Lisbon for one short day on our cruise, and wanted something a little different than the typical shore excursion... so we contacted Estrela d'Alva about their Real Lisbon Street Art Tour, and they kindly agreed to give us a private tour, including a city tour. Pedro was our guide and he was perfect. He had an obvious passion for the interesting street art throughout Lisbon and was able to tell us about the artists behind the pieces, as well as to show us pieces that were really as much social commentary as they were art (e.g. a piece celebrating the abolition of the death penalty, or a piece honouring a key figure in the 1978 revolution). All of us, including our kids, really enjoyed this part. We were even lucky enough to meet a local street artist, Vanessa Teodoro, who actually designed the art featured on the tour van, and was working on a pedestrian bridge when we met her. Really cool! What made our day even better was the little things. Pedro brought us to all of the sights we wanted to see, and even watched our kids while we ran to Pasteis de Belem to snag some delicious custard tarts. Having a private tour meant that we could adjust - for example we stopped briefly to grab a delicious coffee, we also had a lovely lunch outside where Pedro helped us to order. We were able to see some of the sites in Belem as well as in the city itself. Obviously, the more time you can see Lisbon, the better - but Pedro made excellent use of our limited time in port and we are so grateful.
My wife Lydia and I were very impressed by not only the wonderful art created on the sides of many buildings throughout Lisbon, but also for the obvious pride that our guide Pedro has in his city for the art and the artists. This 3 hour tour was the perfect starting point for our 2 weeks spent in Portugal and Spain. Thank you Pedro for a great time!
My wife and I and our 24-year-old daughter had just arrived in Lisbon after a few days in other parts of Portugal. Our daughter was flying home the next morning and we decided to squeeze in a tour rather than just wandering around to start our visit. This tour was informative and interesting and not what we expected. I didn’t think we would learn so much. And we got to see parts of the city we didn’t end up seeing during the rest of our stay. By chance, the tour was for the 3 of us alone, which was nice: a private tour when we hadn’t specifically asked for that.
Having visited Lisbon a number of times I was interested in doing something different this time. With Bristol as my home town, I've been a street art and graffiti fan for a very long time and consider myself fairly knowledgeable. I had a very enjoyable afternoon with Pedro driving to some of the harder to get to murals. I enjoyed seeing some of the work which I had previously only seen on social media! I was especially excited to see the brand new PichiAvo mural which had just been completed days before!
<p>We had a great experience with Pedro, who showed us a variety of street art pieces throughout greater Lisbon. The highlight was our visit to Quinta do Mocho where local resident Cali showed several of the 70 pieces of street art within his neighborhood.</p>
I had no idea Lisbon was such a great city for Street Art. Our guide Pedro was excellent and showed us several pieces of street art throughout the city. The highlight was certainly
<p>GREAT experience ! I was very much looking forward to this tour, and even though there has been some changes on the schedule and on the guide, we all enjoyed very much this tout, inside Lisbon and in neighbourhoods we would never have been going to Quinta do Mocho. We can only recommend this tour. We have been a group of five people in a min van.<br/> I will redo it next time, as I am such there is much more we can see !!</p>
<p>Really a great experience! We saw a lot of street art artworks all around Lisbon that we couldn't see by ourselves.</p>
<p>I loved everything about this tour. Especially the Quinta do Mocho. Our guide Peter was simply the best.</p>
<p>This was good fun! Art on a grand scale! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and highly enthusiastic about his subject. It was a unique experience - a good counterbalance to all of the formal museum art!</p>
<p>Vasco Rodrigues is a gem!! And the art work that he shared with us for four hours was extraordinary!! We have already recommended the tour to friends who will be visiting Lisbon in September. The city of Lisbon has something to be very proud of with this art work - and are very lucky to have Vasco there sharing it with interested travelers! Don't miss this!!</p>
<p>Fantastic tour. So much amazing street art to see in areas of Lisbon that we never would have found on our own. Vasco the tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting with a clear enthusiasm for the art and the people and the communities involved. If you want to go beyond the tourist trail and see another side to Lisbon this is a great way to do that.</p>
<p>Vasco was an amazing tour guide. He gave real insight into the progression of street art in Lisbon and knew all the cool places to see brillant art.</p>
If you’re passionate about world-class street art and fantastic murals, you’ve come to the right place in one of the most important European cities of street art Lisbon. If you want to be guided to the right, important and most beautiful places of street art, with expert explanations in excellent German, then the three-hour tour with Pedro, the representative of the Real Lisbon Street Art Tour is absolutely right! It was great fun!
Wir hatten eine tolle Street Art Tour!!!!! Pedro hat uns mit viel Fachwissen durch die 3 Stunden geführt. Kreuz und quer durch Lissabon waren unsere Ziele: Plätze , an die man als Tourist sonst nie kommen würde. Pedro hat all unsere Fragen beantwortet und uns einen sehr guten Einblick in die portugiesische Street Art Kunst gegeben. Künstler , die weltweit bekannt sind! Seien sie neugierig und buchen sie diese Tour! Wir sagen DANKE ! Andrea und Udo
Exciting discovery of this intelligent attempt by the municipality to both encourage and frame this art which is far from minor. Thanks to my motivated guide Pedro and in a comfortable mini van I was able to crisscross 3 hours during neighborhoods unknown and deserted tourists because eccentric. The only downside is that the activity is no longer available in French because of a lack of a guide. But as mine was speaking slowly I had no trouble understanding it.
<p>Pedro nous a pris en charge devant le Hard Rock café et nous a fait découvrir des pépites. Pour l'essentiel, il s'est agit dœuvres monumentales commanditées et exécutées avec des moyens techniques importants et en toute légalité. Après un petit tour dans Lisbonne où nous avons pu voir des murs peints par Obey et Vhils notamment, il nous a conduit jusqu'à une véritable galerie d'art publique. Elle est située dans un quartier sensible la quinta do mocho le domaine de la chouette où en 2014 s'est déroulé le festival O bairro i o moundo le quartier et le monde. Depuis, des artistes du monde entier se relaient pour changer l'aspect de ces bâtiments uniformes, bas et tristes et pour apporter de la fierté à leurs habitants. Kali, un jeune guide issu du quartier a fait vivre pour nous entre autres les fresques de Bordalo II, Astro, Ram, Violant ou encore Vinie Graffiti pour les plus récentes. Il nous a raconté nombres d'anecdotes sur leur genèse et sur la vie locale. <br/> Nos deux guides se sont montrés très sympathiques, enthousiastes et compétents. Dans un anglais excellent, ils nous ont fait passer une matinée exceptionnelle et nous les en remercions vivement.</p>
