Welcome...
... to Chile's First and most infamous Street Art & Graffiti Tour:
"Valpo Street Art Tours". If you're wondering how you got here, it beats us... But since you're here, stay a while and enjoy of this site, which was put together by some somewhat-handsome criminals, and some almost-gorgeous criminalettes. Valparaiso, or "Valpo*" as we call it*, has a series of awesome pieces, by extremely talented writers and muralists. Our intention is to take you there; to the underground; to the streets, to the alleyways, to the staircases... and show you a side of Valparaíso that very few people get to see. Valparaíso is the cultural capital of Chile, as well as the graffiti capital of Chile. Join us on our tours... let us take you to some places that the average travelers are not aware of. *Some call it "Valpa". Those are the same types of people that wear cowboy boots with sweatpants. No problem with that... just... you know... That's like adding tropical fruit to pizza (KA-BOOOM!). News:

A Little Gift from us to the City!

A letter from the team @ValpoStreetArtTours about the Polanco Hill of Valparaíso...
Dear Visitors,
We have been getting many emails regarding the Polanco hill and tour to that place. There was a festival that took place there and the graffiti is absolutely awesome. However, we've gotten many visitors who have been there on their own telling us about their safety concerns, because many have had problems with the local pick-pockets, so, please don't go unless you have a local from the hill, and even then, please be careful.
We have a tour called "Going All City", where we visit the Polanco hill, but it is done in a vehicle, and you have both a local driver and a local guide to watch for your safety. See Tour.

Try not to call after 8 pm, because, we do have lives, you know (even though they mainly consist of smoking medicinal herbs, drinking cheap wine and painting the streets).
SMALL PRINT:
There are quite a number of "Tour Guides" & "Tour Companies" who are only in this business to make a quick Peso. They don't do our community any good and they damage the tourism industry.
Make sure you know that your guides are registered in Sernatur before taking tours with them and avoid any bad moments with "Chantas" (men and women who aren't who they say they are).

Back from the Plandemia with a Bang! Nat Geo was like "Yo, VSA", and we were like "Yo, Nat Geo".

We made it to TripAdvisor's Hall of Fame and then Covid happened, and now they treat us like that ex-girlfriend that some Australian guy used to know. He actually wrote a song about it.
In 2018, we hosted Lonely Planet in Valparaíso, showing street art as one of the top 3 main things to do in Chile!
