Découvrez le street art parisien à la Butte-aux-Cailles avec un guide artiste local

Our tour is a 1.5-hour small-group walk (maximum 1–15 guests) led by an accredited local guide who is also a former street artist and who personally knows many of the French street artists whose work you may see on your tour. You’ll explore one of Paris’s most authentic “village” neighborhoods and decode how street art evolved here—from stencils and paste-ups to mosaics and murals.

We focus on La Butte-aux-Cailles in the 13th arrondissement—a charming, village-like area loved by Parisians and famous for its lively street-art scene. Expect cobbled lanes, small houses, and colorful walls.

Street art is ephemeral and the route changes with the walls, but you may encounter works (or traces) by names such as Invader, Seth, Miss.Tic, Jef Aérosol, Kashink, Gzup, and others your guide knows personally. We adapt the walk to what’s freshest that week.

It’s a comfortable, neighborhood-paced walk. Surfaces include pavement and some cobblestones, typical of historic Paris. Wear supportive, closed-toe shoes. (If you’d prefer gentler pacing or have mobility needs, consider a private version—we’ll tailor the route.) 

Your voucher/confirmation includes the precise meeting point and an on-the-day contact number. Please arrive 15 minutes early so we can begin on time. Your tour will end in the Butte Aux Cailles, the street art there changes regularly so the route changes with it. Your guide will be able to help should you need to get back to the meeting point, get to the metro, or find a great place to eat or have a drink in the neighbourhood after your tour.

This is an outdoor experience. We don’t include museum or gallery entries during the walk, but your guide will happily point out spots to visit after the tour.

Paris is beautiful in every season. Bring a compact umbrella or light rain layer if showers are forecast; your guide may adjust the route for comfort and safety.
