Best food tour of Valencia - This was the best city food tour I've ever attended! Vivi is so personable, bubbly, knowledgeable, and fun. She shared fascinating information about the city and its history through the lens of delicious food. We sampled various historic and iconic dishes in Valencia and explored the city on foot. Between the information on the food scene, wonderful recommendations, and fantastic tapas and drinks, the tour made my first time in Spain memorable. Vivi made it such a fun afternoon filled with great conversations and connections.

An Off-the-Beaten-Path Perspective of Valencian Food & Drink - Vivi was an absolute gem of a host. Knowledgeable, erudite and fluent in (at least) three languages she provided a local’s perspective of GREAT food and drink in little places that were pillars of character and quality that we would never had known about. Highly recommended!

Indulging in Valencia💃 - This was a fabulous food tour in the historic city of Valencia. Vivi, our tour guide, made us immediately feel ike we were catching up with a close friend. She took us to some fabulous places where we partook of some delicious food and drinks. Coolest among them was the mercado. She provided historical and cultural info along the way and also provided tips on how to do tapas like a local. This tour was well worth it so when in Valencia go ahead and “indulge”. Thank you Viví!
