Unique experience with and thanks to Vivi! - The experience we had with Vivi was nothing short of magnificent. Vivi is a wonderful person, who made us discover Valencia are a new point of view, telling us about the history and culture of the Spanish city towards food. There was no shortage of cultural details about the city itself, which we would never have noticed if he hadn’t told us little Live details during the tour. Highly Recommendation to those who want to discover small and large corners of Valencian food and wine culture!

Great local food tour experience - Vivi is a fantastic host for exploring Valencia and its food culture. As a guide, she was very enjoyable, providing us with plenty of insights into the city’s history and lifestyle, especially regarding food. The places we visited were all excellent, many of which we would have never found or tried on our own. At the end, we even received Vivi’s list of recommended places to visit, ranging from drinks to great food. We definitely recommend exploring Valencia’s food culture with Vivi.

Family day in Valencia! - A great day spent in Valencia today!
Vivi was engaging and so obliging to ensure our 13 year old ( slightly plain eater!) always found something to eat!
The market is fabulous 😄

Delicious way to experience Valencia - We enjoyed a lovely and delicious tour of Valencia with our delightful guide, Vivi. Vivi’s strong communication style, sense of humor, and expert knowledge of her beloved city provided us with an opportunity to feast our way through the morning/afternoon. Vivi's charisma and charm was contagious: each spot we stopped to sample a speciality of Valencia we were greeted by a personal food friend of Vivi’s. The beautiful indoor Central Market stop was a favorite for us. We are so glad we chose to join Vivi for her tour!
