Discover why Johanessburg’s artistic hub is recognized worldwide as a booming creative center on this 2-hour guided walking tour. You’ll see some of the best street art from around the world and even meet some of the artists themselves.

Your guide will take you to meet the locals and explore Joburg subcultures, learn about the artists, their motivations, and the different techniques they use. The Maboneng District is a culturally diverse neighbourhood with strong historical links to the mining industry and now a blend of Arts and Culture as the city rediscovers its identity post-apartheid.

Vibrant and Soulful

Published on Feb, 2025

We loved it. Refiloe put our mind at ease. We felt safe. The neighborhood was vibrant. He was very informative. He was friendly and fun to engage with. He showed us some amazing pieces of art work and explained the story behind each piece. This excursion allowed us to feel the soul of the city. It is definitely worth the trip. I would highly recommend.

The Ultimate Street Art Tour in Johannesburg!

Published on Jan, 2025

If you’re looking for an unforgettable cultural experience in Johannesburg, the street art tour of Maboneng is an absolute must! From the moment the tour begins, you’re immersed in a vibrant world of creativity, history, and storytelling. Refilled is incredibly knowledgeable, weaving fascinating narratives about each piece of art, the artists behind them, and the social and political contexts they reflect. His passion for the area and its artistry is infectious. Beyond just admiring the stunning murals, you’ll learn about the rich cultural significance of Maboneng and how street art has transformed this neighborhood into a hub of expression and innovation. Highly recommended for anyone visiting!

Great tour. Highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful artistic stroll through Maboneng with Refiloe. He was a friendly, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable tour guide. Not only about the art, but the neighbourhood and Joburg itself. We could have walked around all day chatting about art and culture with Refiloe!! Great tour. Highly recommend!!

Amazing guide, fun, informative, interesting, cool.

Published on Jan, 2025

The young man who was our guide was AMAZING!! He was so smart, informative and charming. He pointed out so many interesting things about the murals and artists as well as S. African history. He stayed with us and helped us negotiate with the shop owners when we bought souvenirs. And he stayed with us until our Uber came. I would love to have a son as conscientious and thoughtful as he was. He was a gem and I wish him nothing but success and happiness in his future endeavors. He can come and visit us in the U.S. anytime.

Great tour in a vibrant neighbourhood

Published on Jan, 2025

Very nice tour with an enthusiastic guide in a vibrant neighbourhood full of original street art, mostly 'official' work. The guide made us feel very safe knowing all people around.
