Private Tours
Precita Eyes offers private mural tours, by reservation, for Monday through Friday appointments. There are two different private tours we can offer you; times and prices vary:
Standard Mission Mural Walk - This is our basic mural tour. Your guide is a Precita Eyes Muralist who will walk with you and show you murals while offering commentary and answering questions. The Standard tour lasts approximately an hour and 15 minutes. The cost is $10/person, but we have a starting rate of $60 as we are unable to conduct this tour for less than that. We may charge more than $60 for a tour if there are enough people to justify it (e.g. 10 people at $10/each = $100).
Classic Mission Mural Walk - This is our more in-depth tour. We begin with a slide presentation covering a brief introduction to the history of muralism (our first image is of a cave painting) as well as a very broad look at contemporary murals and the artists who create them, including spray can murals. This is followed by the guided walk, so the Classic tour takes longer. With most groups, it is about two hours. The cost is $12/person, and the starting rate is $70.
Tour Capacity - Whether you choose the Standard tour or the Classic tour, the capacity limit is not more than 10 people. If your group includes more than 10 people, please consider scheduling more than one mural tour in order to accommodate everyone. You may also be interested in our "Oversize Tour" option:
Oversize Tours - If your group includes more than 10 people, we can offer you a 1-hour tour of the murals in Balmy Alley. This historic 1-block alley is home to approximately 40 individual murals dating from 1972 to the present. The cost for a Balmy Alley Oversize tour is $10/person, and the starting rate is $60.
