The BCN street art tour was one of the absolute highlights. Juan taught us to lift our heads—so we could even notice the art on the walls of houses, the hidden details, and the messages in the first place. And, in a figurative sense as well: walking through a city with more open eyes and noticing things more consciously. The insights into the background of Barcelona's street art scene were also particularly fascinating – especially in relation to the regulations in force and the tension between urban art and city administration. This gives you a completely different perspective on the city and its culture. Finally, a visit to the studio of the artist ASHWAN and a personal conversation with him, sharing our common passion for hip-hop and discussing its origins – including memories of influential films like Beat Street. It didn't feel like a tourist event at all, but like a real encounter. Absolutely!!

The tour with Luke was really great, super interesting, and just fantastic. Luke is very knowledgeable, showed us great spots, including off the usual tourist track, and always allowed enough time for photos, questions, or anything else we wanted to discuss. For me, the absolute highlight was visiting the studio 😊 Being able to talk to the artists was really nice! I highly recommend the tour!!
