Must do in your trip -
We had an amazing time exploring Valencia with our guide, Maria. She had a great way of
telling stories, making history come alive with every stop. The highlight for us was visiting the
Central Market, where we sampled delicious cheeses and horchata, the famous Valencian
drink made from tiger nuts. It was the perfect mix of history, culture, and gastronomy!

also taking us to the Central Market, where we tasted fresh local products. We also enjoyed
listening to street musicians in the old town, adding a special charm to the experience.

Valencia hidden gems and iconic sites
-
We loved every moment of this tour! Our guide, Elena, took us through both the famous
landmarks and the lesser-known spots of the city, making sure we got a true local
experience. We wandered through Plaza Redonda, admired the modernist beauty of the
Central Market, and explored charming streets that felt untouched by time. The balance
between history and everyday life was perfect

One of the best tour - Walking through Valencia with a local guide was the best decision we made. Our guide,
Jaime, was informative and fun, taking us to places we never would have found on our own.
The two hours flew by, and we left with a deeper appreciation for this beautiful city. We
specially loved the market and taste the famous “horchata"

Valencia local perspective -
This tour was the highlight of our time in Valencia! Our guide, Laura, gave us a deep
understanding of the city's history while also sharing personal stories that made it feel even
more special. Walking through the narrow streets of El Carmen, we discovered beautiful old
buildings, hidden plazas, and centuries-old traditions. The pace was just right, and we
learned so much about the city's past and present.

Valencia in short time - Valencia in short time. We only had a couple of days in Valencia, and this tour was exactly what we needed! Our
guide, Pablo, took us through the historic old town, the beautiful Plaza de la Virgen, and the
impressive Serranos Towers. Along the way, we stopped for a refreshing horchata with
fartons, a local treat we wouldn’t have tried otherwise. Absolutely worth it!
