See murals depicting politics, play, and portraits along Woodstock streets
Woodstock street art is a tourist attraction in Cape Town. Our team offers an experience where murals are found stacked along side streets and feature themes like politics, play, and portraits. Some artwork is located on the border of Woodstock, near the Salt River area, and includes pieces by South African and international artists. We provide opportunities to explore these paintings, which can be found by following cat and mouse painting signs along the pavement. Formal tours are available for those unfamiliar with the area.

We visited in March and joined a small walking tour. Murals stacked down side streets like open pages in a giant book—politics, play, portraits. The guide knew the artists and the stories, which turned “cool walls” into something we kept talking about over coffee.
It was not as great as expected and it is not safe for tourists, we often had a bad feeling during our walk and the art did not really convince us, so we cannot recommend the place
We love this. There are formal tours, but we wanted to find it and do it ourselves. So the street art paintings are not *one after the other*, but rather every coupe of houses / walls have the most beautiful paintings - done bt SA and International artists. Some of the paintings are on the *border* of Woodstock, on the Salt River side. It is called the Cat and Mouse walking route, to find all the beautiful paintings. So, on the pavement, you will find the cat and mouse painting signs. It is safe to do this route. We normally park in Albert street and walk from any place, to search for the paintings. If you don't have time, or are not familiar with the environment - rather take a formal tour. A lovely half day
Such epic Street art in Woodstock, you walk around and get an education and goosebumps at the stunning art you see! It will be best to get a guide, more safe and walk in numbers in the morning! Be vigilant!
