Hola! Welcome.

Are you ready to discover the city in the middle of the world?

As part of a community of ecuatorian creators, we offer visitors an insider’s view into the contemporary art world. We are unique because our tour guides are professionals in the field of contemporary art working as curators, gallerists, reserchers, artists, and more. We are here to show you the ins-and-outs of our local art scene—the finest galleries, museums, studios and alternative spaces.

Taking a tour with Aeon Art Gallery guarantees an unparalleled level of access to the ecuatorian art world that you won’t find anywhere else. You will engage with gallery directors, meet artists in their studios and intimately converse with interesting local characters.

Tours we offer:

LA MARISCAL Street Art Walk.
Quito´s Gallery Tour.
Quito´s Old Town Hidden Workshops Tour.

Our tour ART WALK La Mariscal takes you inside the city’s street art and graffiti scene, seasoned with the wonderful surrounding stories, which serve as a unique expression of the city’s geographical location, cultural peculiarities, political movements, and artistic sub-cultures.

The ART WALK La Mariscal tells a multitude of stories written on the city’s walls. Our fully guided Street Art Walk will take you through the most visible and famous graffiti and urbanart in town, as well as some of the most hidden art places.

Graffiti in Ecuador was boosted 10 years ago, largely due to the country's "Socialismo del siglo 21" political process and influenced by the world’s most famous street artists like Elliot Tupac, Fusca, Bastardilla and Banksy who caused a stir in the local scene.

Some pieces of La Mariscal Street Art Walk are well executed artworks representing the artistic flair of the city, while others have a political or social criticism and can be served as a crash course on Ecuadorian society.

Come explore with us Quito's art and, through it, explore provoking, moving, fascinating pieces of history, politics, and culture of Ecuador itself. Also, this tour will be combined with great craft beer produced by @bandidobrewing ¡A full exquisite day!
