Cairns Hipster and Street Art Walking Tour

This guided walking tour gives you a different look at Cairns, away from the standard sightseeing circuit. Instead of focusing on the usual attractions, it takes you through hidden laneways and creative pockets of the city to see large-scale murals and learn about the local artists behind them. You’ll also get a feel for Cairns’ café, boutique and small-business scene, so it suits travellers who like seeing a city’s personality rather than just ticking off landmarks.

Over around 1.5 hours, you’ll walk through central Cairns with an experienced guide, stopping at mural-filled laneways and urban spaces where street art has reshaped the look of the area. Along the way, your guide shares background on the artists and the stories behind the works, while also pointing out cafés, boutique stores and creative hubs that add to the neighbourhood’s laid-back feel. The tour is wheelchair accessible, suitable for all fitness levels, and manageable for prams and strollers.
