Your pace, your routeTwo to three hours, and the city starts talking back
A street-art tour as a team event is a self-paced format where your team follows an app through a city’s street art and solves tasks at chosen stops. Self-guided is the standard: the app moves your group from stop to stop, and you decide how fast to go and where to linger.
A guided version with a host is available on request, for teams who would rather listen than explore alone. A tour usually runs two to three hours, though it can run shorter.
Teams build their own route through the Urban Passport app, choosing which stops to include. The result is not a scripted walk. It is a format where every team finds its own way through the city, without a fixed schedule and without anyone rushing you.

Murals, paste-ups, tags: what’s on the walls and why it’s there
The tour works with real walls in the city: every stop shows a piece that is actually there. The app leads your team to the wall, the rest is up to you.
You build the route yourselves. In the host login you set the stops and write your own questions; several teams can each build their own. We give you short guidance on how to place a stop well. The finished tour loads into the app under its own code.
The pace is yours. There is no run sheet and no clock. You decide where to stay longer and where to move on.
The task is the difference. At every stop your team solves a task tied to that piece, instead of following someone who talks. The host invites the teams; nobody needs an account.
Street art is what we build these tours around. The app can carry other themes as well — city history, architecture, markets — just say so when you ask. And if you would rather paint a wall than walk to one, the graffiti workshop is the better fit.
Examples of stops and artworks you walk to
Motifs from tours we have run: murals, lettering and large-format pieces, photographed by teams on the move. TUI Cruises walked the tour in Hamburg with 25 people.
In 1985 Loomit took part in the Geltendorf train, Germany's first complete whole train, painted on the S4 suburban line. His style moved from flat surfaces to three-dimensional work in the years after. Since 1996 he has kept a studio in Werksviertel-Mitte and still curates the walls there.
Richard Mirando, born 1961 in the Bronx, started painting the New York subway in 1973, mostly on lines 2, 5 and 6. He founded the crew United Artists and moved into galleries with canvases around 1980, while staying on trains until 1989. The scene calls him the Godfather of Graffiti, a title nobody in New York hands out lightly.
The white surface was sprayed with a fire extinguisher filled with paint instead of retardant, which you can tell from the long runs going down to the pavement. Black faces sit on top, each drawn in one unbroken line. No artist name survives for this one.
Victor Ash sprayed the figure in 2007 using a single stencil, 22 by 14 metres, black and white only. The astronaut floats upside down across the firewall, an image of the Cold War and the race into space, right in the middle of a divided city. It came out of the Backjumps project, The Live Issue.
British artist Fanakapan painted this in March 2019, legally, around 20 metres up. He works in the chrome balloon style: photorealistic chrome balloons, painted flat, that read as three-dimensional through reflection and cast shadow alone. 1UP stands for One United Power, the crew behind it.
Twins Otavio and Gustavo Pandolfo from São Paulo usually paint their figures yellow. This one started out green and faded over the years, and the feet have since been painted over by someone else. The wall has kept changing since the day it went up.
Belgian artist ROA, born 1975 in Ghent, works only in black and white with a spray can, in fine hatching. On this wall a hare, a stork and a roe deer hang dead from ropes, spread across the whole facade. The motif is deliberately unfriendly, not a cute animal picture.
Irish artist Fin DAC painted this in 2019 as part of his Hidden Beauty series, his first large mural in Berlin. It shows a geisha in an orange kimono. What looks like a lantern beside her head is actually a window, and the building's two real balconies are part of the composition.
Self-guided is the standard, a guided version is available on request. From 251 people we put together a custom quote.
Phone out, set off, set your own pace
The flow follows the app: at the start it shows the first stop, your team walks there and solves a task tied to that piece. Then the app shows the next stop, and you set the pace in between.
The app shows the first stop
At the start the Urban Passport app shows your team where to go first. Which stops make up the route is something every team puts together itself, so no two tours look the same.
You walk there
Your team walks to the wall. The piece is really there, in the city, not a photo of it. How fast you go is up to you.
You solve a task on site
At the stop your team solves a task tied to that piece. That is the difference from a walk: you are looking closely, not just listening to someone talk.
The app shows the next stop
Then the app shows the next stop. The pace in between is yours, and you decide where to linger and where to move on.
Two to three hours, self-paced
A tour usually runs two to three hours and can run shorter if your group moves quickly. Self-guided is the standard; a guided version is available on request.
What stays with you when the tour ends
The paintings were always there. After the tour you spot them on the walk back to the station, on walls you have passed for years.
You learn where to look: up at fire walls, round the back, at roller shutters and utility boxes. A city hangs its work where nobody expects a frame. And a museum closes at six — your city does not.
You do not take a canvas home. You take the route home, and you will walk it again without us.
And if it rains? The walls are still outside
For the street-art tour, weather-proofing means one thing: no fixed schedule. Because your group sets its own pace, you can duck under cover for a few minutes if it rains and carry on once it clears.
Why that works
The tour is not tied to a clock, so nothing is ticking while you wait out a shower. The same self-pacing that lets you decide how long to stay at each stop carries the weather too.
You are not planning the tour against the forecast, you are simply letting it run alongside: a break under an awning costs a few minutes, and the app waits until you are ready to move again.
Four of you or a hundred, the route stays the same
Tell us the number and we will say how many routes it makes sense to split across. The price per person drops with every step up, starting at €35.00; from 251 people we put together a custom quote instead of a list price.
The larger your team, the cheaper per person
Move the slider to your team size. A street-art tour is €35.00 net per person and drops with every step up. From 251 people we put together a custom quote, because larger groups spread across several routes.

Request a quote for this sizeThree or four people work just as well as a hundred. All prices are net per person, plus 19 % VAT.
How you pay
Two routes: book directly in the shop, or ask for a quote and pay by invoice. For teams the invoice is the usual way.
If something gets in the way
Up to 30 days before the date you cancel free of charge, after that the full sum falls due. Rain is not a reason to cancel — the tour has no fixed schedule.
What is already included
App access for the whole team, the route with its stops and the tasks at every wall. Self-guided is the standard; a guided version is available on request.
Fifteen cities with a finished route, the rest on request
Anywhere. A tour you build yourselves is not tied to a city — it works in a small town just as well as in a capital. You place the stops where your team actually is.
Fifteen cities have a finished route online. These are the quarters they run through:
Berlin runs through Kreuzberg, Munich starts at Werksviertel, and Frankfurt heads to Ostend and the Ratswegkreisel first. Everywhere else the exact starting point is agreed when you book. And if your city is not on the list, you build the route yourselves — that is the point.
What teams ask us first
Does the tour work in any weather?
Yes. The tour is not tied to a schedule and your team sets its own pace, so you can duck under cover if it rains and carry on once it clears.
Do we need a guide?
No, self-guided is the standard: the app leads your team from stop to stop. A guided version with a host is available on request.
How long does the tour take?
Two to three hours, though it can run shorter. Since you set your own pace, your team decides the tempo.
What does the street-art tour cost?
€35.00 net per person, and less as the group grows. From 251 people we put together a custom quote.
Where can you do the street-art tour?
A ready route is online in fifteen cities, among them Hamburg, Berlin, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, London, Copenhagen, Prague, Barcelona, Lisbon, Porto, Athens, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Anywhere else you build the route yourselves, so a small town works too.
