Street Art bike ride

WHAT YOU’LL DO

For our Street Art Bike Ride through Oaxaca we’ll meet at the Coyote Aventuras Office at 9:00 AM.  When you arrive, please ring doorbell A to let your trip leader know that you’re outside.  Once we introduce ourselves and get to know each other, we’ll set you up with your bike for the morning.  Our friends at Bicibella and your guide will have you test out a few options to make sure you find the right fit. Once everyone is set up with a bike, we’ll head out to explore the city on wheels.

Biking through Oaxaca offers a unique and exhilarating way to explore the city and its surrounding areas compared to walking. On this tour, we’ll visit 3 different Oaxacan neighborhoods stopping at murals, screen prints, stencils and important messages that bring the walls to life.  

As we bike through the historic streets, adorned with colorful murals, graffiti, and street art installations, we’ll delve into the stories and inspirations behind each piece. From striking political statements to depictions of indigenous symbols, every mural tells a tale of Oaxaca’s rich heritage and contemporary issues.    

Your expert guide will lead you to hidden gems and prominent street art hotspots, providing insights into the techniques, styles, and themes prevalent in Oaxacan street art. Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to interact with local artists, learning about their creative process, and gaining a deeper understanding of the social, cultural, and political issues driving their work.

Experience the transformation of public spaces into vibrant galleries, where walls serve as canvases for artistic expression and community engagement. The streets tell stories of resistance, highlighting the achievements of revolutionary figures in Mexico’s turbulent history.  After observing how art and society interact through the public walls, we’ll return to the Coyote Aventuras Office at 13:00.
