Street Art Tour of Rome

To all lovers of contemporary art, we present an incredibly unique tour that offers an intimate glimpse into the lives and works of upcoming street artists in Rome. Spend an exciting three hours touring the Bohemian district of San Lorenzo which houses most of the city’s best works of street art.

This tour takes you off the beaten path and helps you discover this unconventional and artistic side of Rome that few tourists get to experience. Throughout this experience you will be accompanied by an expert guide who is himself a well-known artist from Rome.

The District of San Lorenzo

San Lorenzo, also known as Rome’s student district, has a unique and vibrant atmosphere that sets it apart from other areas of the city. Over the years it has gained popularity for its Bohemian culture as it is inhabited by several artists who live and work in the area. San Lorenzo is also renowned for its social scene, with its authentic local eateries, live music in the piazzas, and an exuberant nightlife that lasts into the early hours of the morning.

San Lorenzo’s Bohemian character and artistic nature is particularly appealing to artists, many of whom have set up their private studios in the area from where they continue to create stunning works of art. Not only is San Lorenzo home to some very interesting artistic studios but it also houses stunning works of street art ranging from witty graffiti and little drawings on the walls to entire buildings covered in colorful murals.

The streets of San Lorenzo act as a perfect canvas for artists who want to display their creativity to the public. Here you can find artworks by famous street artists such as Patrimonio indigeno by the artist Lucamaleonte and Mai più violenza sulle donne by Luca Ximenes that apart from being visual treats, also portray important social messages.

San Lorenzo is also home to the San Lorenzo Art District, also known as SALAD, which is an art association founded by well-known artists, one of whom is Alessandro Calizza.

Chocolate Stop and an Exclusive Aperitif 

For those who have a sweet tooth, we provide an exciting option with which you can culminate the tour: a visit to a chocolate factory that offers some of the most delicious and rare chocolate treats in Rome!
