Valencia Complete Tour by Tuk Tuk

Amy_N, May 2026

Unique way to see the city especially with mom

I love learning about the history and stories about places I visit. Mom is 74 and cannot walk very well these days. This was THE PERFECT tour to catch the highlights of Valencia in a really unique way. More personal than the big bus tour and less strenuous than a walking tour. Adrian was our guide and he was very patient and had a lot of great stories to share. Highly recommended!!!

Day trip to Peniscola with Batwalking

The trip was amazing. Peniscola is a must do day tour from Valencia. We had a small van with 5 people on the tour. The guide, Miguel, was knowlegeable and full of fun facts. He had a great sense of humor and it added spice to the trip. On top of everything we had a wonderful lunch with a view of the sea. Definitely recommend it

Valencia Old Town Tour with Wine & Tapas in 11th Century Historic Monument

Fantastic walking tour of Valencia

This tour is so worth doing. We had Cormac as our host and he was so friendly, informative, and made the tour so nice. There was only 5 of us with Cormac which was great as we all chatted together. The walking tour lasted around 2 hours and then we were seated in a private, peaceful old dining room and were served an 8 course tapas menu all with paring wine. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would recommend it to anyone.

Valencian paella workshop and visit to the Algiros market

Paul_K, Mar 2026

Came for the Paella but blown away by the cake

Came to this class to learn how to make paella, which we did, and it was a great experience, but my favorite thing was learning how to make a Valencia “cocoa,” which is cake. Very simple recipe that is very versatile and very delicious. We also learned how to make a tortilla Española. Well worth it. Wonderful experience.

San Jose Caves Guided Tour from Valencia

Kari_Y, Mar 2026

Fantastic Cave tour

The caves are amazing and highly recommended. Our guide Joquim was fantastic. The bus ride was about 45 min, but, was fine as you got to see a bit of the outskirts of Valencia. While there are no photos permitted at the beginning of the boat tour, it makes sense because you need to mind the cave walls and ceiling, you are permitted to take photos later in the tour which is more than enough to capture the beauty of the caves and water. Super amazing! Tip while waiting for entry to the caves which is 45-60 min, the coffee is great and the fresh squeezed Valencian orange juice was the best I’ve ever had. One of first or second stalls on the right as you walk up towards the ticket booth.

Two wineries tour with wine tasting

Eva_V, Jan 2026

Great wine tour for all levels of wine appreciators

This was a great half day tour to a less well known wine region of Spain. Elise was our guide and everything ran very smoothly. The tour itself was really well structured (we got to visit one of a larger wineries followed by a family winery) and Elise was excellent at facilitating the wine tastings. Her wine knowledge is very impressive and her tour would definitely be enjoyable to more seasoned wine appreciators as well as those who are just beginning to learn or simply enjoy a good glass of wine. Highly recommend this tour & Elise as your guide.

Patricia_L, Nov 2025

Wonderful cooking class - highly recommend!

This cooking class was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Spain. Guillermo (?) led our market visit, and Jose and Christine were the fantastic chefs who taught our class. They are absolute stars! We opted for the seafood paella option, and all the participants had a chance to prepare the ingredients and cook. Jose gave great instructions and lots of useful tips, and Christine showed us how to make delicious sangria. They had a great rapport and really seemed to enjoy teaching. We enjoyed meeting the other participants, and there was great conversation and a lot of laughter. We highly recommend this class!!

Comprehensive Informative tour

Learned many interesting facts about the Nord train station- and then began our walk toward the Catbedral stopping and learning many interesting facts. Because is was a Thursday our guide made sure we arrived just before noon at the Cathedral in order to experience the an event that has been for the past hundreds of years every Thursday at 12 in the back of the church. The 9 districts meet outside to discuss any water issues between the communities. It was the first time a woman took part. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the several sites. Her friendly manner with her sense of humor made it a fun, informative tour. A unique site was looking at below ground Roman bath ruins that were covered with a glass cover and then water on top so that it was possible to see them. When we ended at the market she stayed and answered everyone’s where to go next questions and even emailed us restaurant suggestions. I highly recommend this comprehensive informative tour.
