      THANK YOU! Diego was fantastic! Really informative and thought-provoking… and as he quoted from one of the artists “ Art shouldn’t always be comfortable…” I love the outreach work you are supporting and the methodology of making your community driven pieces. Bravo! I also did the workshop with J - really fun and challenging ! And gave me an even greater respect for the artists’ work! Merci! Barbara

    We had a great time doing the walking tour of the street art followed by the graffiti workshop for our kids who were ages 14, 13, 11, 10 and 7. Jay was our guide and led the workshop. He was great with the kids and spoke perfect English. We highly recommend this for a morning or afternoon excursion

    Myself and friend, who a huge fan of the graffiti culture, booked this experience as a must to do in Bogota. We were not disappointed! Diego set us up with a two part workshop, which was meant for 4 hours, but the guys were so cool, that they stayed with us longer to finish out murals. Diego, taught us the fundamentals of art that would be key as we moved forward in to creating our design. Mateo then took over the second part of the workshop, where we made our stencil. They brought us to a great place, with a great view. They we created our murals, with the help of these talented individuals.
    I have done a graffiti workshop in Berlin, but this one exceeded expectations.
    I strongly recommend this to anyone visiting Bogota looking for a unique experiences. You will be in good hands with Capital Grafton Tours, and with Deigo and Mateo..... thanks again guys! 😁

    My wife and I had a great time today experiencing and learning about the street art culture in Bogota. Being from Philly we understand what graffiti means to the spirit and culture of a city, but we are very impressed with the vision and mission of Capitol Graffiti and the work they are doing with the city's youth. This is a truly unique and special experience.

    Beautiful discoveries of graffiti in the streets of Bogotá thanks to Diego. Good presentation of this art and its process of creation from À to Z, art full of meanings and which says a lot about Colombian society. Deciphering graffiti , different interpretations, free to you! Captivating!
    Then head to the Ocio gallery for the activity: top , I recommend! Diego and Camille , 2 artists , who share their passion. We learned the basics , then qq techniques (not easy at all!) ... leading to our own graffiti! Top!
    Street art deserves attention.
    Don’t hesitate , your vision will be quite different after ... congratulations to all the graffiti artists!

    A nice discovery of the city on the grafitti side under the wise eye of Diego.
    The explanations in French allowed us to better understand this culture and this art of expression that we now look at differently! Our 2 boys of 7 and 10 years followed and were enthusiastically interested in this ride.
    But it was nothing before the “final” at the workshop to produce our own family graffiti creation, always with Diego’s explanations and pedagogy.
    The whole family LOVED this first bombshell experience!
    Thank you:-)

    Capital Graffiti is an amazing company! I have done several tours as well as the Graffiti workshop with them as part of my research with the University of Leiden. I would highly recommend them as your top choice when in Bogotá. The artists and guides are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and great fun. Enjoy!

    The Graffiti Workshop is an incredibly unique experience that allows you to tap into your inner artist (even if you didn't know you had one)! Through this workshop, you are able to connect with the importance of graffiti as public art and how others use it to make statements of their world. The workshop began with warming up the wrists and learning tricks of graffiti art through marker and paper. Then the workshop moves to aerosol cans and creating art with those art tools. The end product is your very own, personalized tag. I felt very cool and empowered by the end of the workshop!

    It was a new experience, learning techniques and discovering that it is an art. Diego's guidance was very good and the entire process was well developed. It helped me a lot to understand the graffiti process and learn about more art techniques, highly recommended
