Amsterdam Noord Street Art Tour
★4.6(900 verified GetYourGuide reviews)· 2.5 hours23 travellers viewed this in the last hour
Cross the IJ river by free ferry and step into a world that could not be more different from the picture-postcard canals. Amsterdam Noord has transformed from industrial wasteland into one of Europe's most exciting street art districts, and this tour takes you through the heart of it. Your guide is a local artist who knows the stories behind the murals, from politically charged pieces to playful works that span entire building facades. You will visit the NDSM Wharf, a former shipyard now covered in artwork by internationally renowned street artists, and explore the surrounding streets where new pieces appear every week. Along the way, learn about the techniques, the legal grey areas, and the community that makes this scene thrive. If you are lucky, you might catch an artist at work.
