Kaya Kaya Artwalkastry
Kaya Kaya Artwalkastry is a guided street art walking tour through the heart of Otrobanda, created by the Kaya Kaya movement to showcase the island’s vibrant painted mural scene. The walk moves through colorful streets, alleyways, and courtyards where large-scale murals, installations, and painted façades turn the neighborhood into an open-air gallery.
Guides share insight into the artists, the stories behind the work, and the wider art movement started by Kaya Kaya that is shaping Otrobanda today. The Otra Guide team enjoys this tour because there’s always something new to discover. It’s also a good way to capture photos for social media, with plenty of opportunities to incorporate yourself into the artwork along the route.
