WALKING Tours

You’re probably familiar with the murals that dot the West End’s urban landscape, but have you ever wondered what they mean?

Every West End mural is painted with purpose and our tours share the meaning behind many of our most prominent works of art. Mural tours allow you to discover our local heroes, urban history and the many cultures that together make up the West End story.

 

Walking Tours run from June-August.
