Street art in Hong Kong
Street art in Hong Kong

What you'll do

From commissioned pieces worth $200 million to provocative political works, Hong Kong’s street art scene is exploding. Luckily for you, with one of our local hosts, you’ll be getting a front-row seat to the madness.

Go behind the scenes in SoHo and Central District, then make a dash to Mong Kok and Harbor City to discover the incredible street art that’s popping up like mushrooms on the mainland.

Homegrown and internationally acclaimed graffiti artists are flocking to Hong Kong to leave their mark and the results are an urban landscape bursting in a riot of color. Weave your way through the streets to uncover bold murals and hidden gems, snap photos of famous works like the vividly painted stairs of Public Square Street and see what’s new on Mong Kok’s Hall of Fame - no two visits here will ever look the same.

And just to think, someone might have walked past one of these beauties whilst hitting the tourist sights just blocks away! But not you. You’ve got us, and you know we’ve got you.

Reviews

    We took this tour on our last of five days in Hong Kong, with Alfred, to explore art and sections of the city we had not ventured to on our own. He proved to be an experienced and energetic guide who took us walking through many interesting neighborhoods to see street art in Hong Kong, Kowloon, and New Territories. As protests were active at the time he escorted us safely to many hot spot areas, well done with a morning start. Alfred, who works in Hong Kong as well as mainland China, was able to answer, as oppose to avoid, our questions about cultural views among peoples throughout the continent. He took us to a great Michelin star (but inexpensive!) dim sum restaurant, a highlight of our culinary experiences in Hong Kong.
