Valencia! Wow! - Daniel was an amazing, informative, passionate, and knowledgeable tour guide. Our family of 4 (two adults and two teens) enjoyed our tour of Valencia. Transportation was seamless. Daniel even waited for us for 15 minutes since our cruise ship docked later than expected. The food and wine at the end of the trip was amazing and probably the best we had on our whole vacation. This was a great tour!

Lots of history and lots of food and wine - The was one of the best excursions we have ever take and at an excellent value. Our guide Sharin kept in touch with us prior to the date and gave perfect instructions on where to meet her from our cruise ship. She showed us the newer sections of Valencia and its beautiful green spaces before we then went on a walking tour of the Old City. Sharin was so informative and you could tell that she really loved sharing the history and beauty of Valencia with us. After the tour, we then had an amazing lunch at this cute private venue where the tapas were amazing and plentiful and the wine was free flowing. Sharin then made sure that everyone from our group were safely put into taxis ( which the tour provided) and returned to our ship in plenty of time. This was a small group tour which made it even nicer (our group had 6 people and there was another group of 8 that had their own guide) We loved everything about the day and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Valencia.
