Description

From ancient Roman foundations to modern architecture, Valencia is a city that has mastered the art of reinvention — built, burnt, rebuilt, conquered, and reborn. Beneath its warm Mediterranean light, the city reveals layers of Roman, Moorish, Gothic, and contemporary heritage, each shaping its unique character.

On the Welcome to Valencia tour, we’ll uncover more than 2,000 years of history: starting at La Almoina, the birthplace of the city, continuing to the grand Lonja de la Seda, and exploring the lively Mercado Central, where local life beats every day. We’ll admire the Gothic Cathedral of Santa María, said to house the Holy Grail, and wander through plazas filled with stories of faith, conquest, and tradition.

Valencia is also a land of flavors, so we’ll share the origins of its most iconic tastes: the legendary paella from Albufera, the refreshing horchata, and the festive Agua de Valencia.

This tour is the perfect introduction to a city of sunlight and stories — a journey through history, culture, and flavor that captures the true spirit of Valencia.

Dina was a lovely guide who knows loads of interesting tidbits. So gives loads of tips for places to visit or places to eat/drink. We pickup her tip for agua de valencia, and it's good.

Unforgettable tour of Old Town Valencia with Pablo!

Pablo is an incredible guide! His knowledge of the Old Town's history is fascinating, his local food recommendations are spot-on (no tourist traps!), and his positive energy is contagious. A must-do in Valencia!

Great tour.

The tour was a great way to acquaint ourselves with the old town of Madrid. Jose, our tour guide, was very friendly, informative and a great story teller, making the history of the city and its main characters “come to life”.
