What are people saying about Valencia
There’s no end to the fun with Valencia tours. The birthplace of paella has much more to offer than just the famous seafood-and-rice dish—though you should definitely try making it yourself while you’re in town. Visit the hot springs of Montanejos, the fairy tale town of Peñíscola, or row a boat through Albufera National Park. Or simply soak up the vibe of the city on a guided walk or tuk-tuk ride that highlights centuries of history.

Are guided tours in Valencia worth it?
Yes, guided tours in Valencia are well worth it. From its beaches to its blend of architectural styles, Valencia has endless things to see, and guides save you from doing tons of research by showing you the highlights. In addition to historical and cultural insights about the city, guides can also provide travel tips, whether you're looking for under-the-radar restaurants or the best day trips from Valencia.
Per one customer who booked the Valencia Old Town Tour With Wine & Tapas in 11th Century Historic Monument, "This was such an interesting tour and a delightful way to spend my morning! Michelle was an incredibly knowledgeable and engaging guide, diving into the history of the Silk Road, the many churches, and fun (and sometimes morbid) stories behind them. The highlight was the private dining experience where we tasted so many incredible local dishes and wines. Of all my travels, this is one of my most favorite experiences I've ever had."
How much do Valencia tours cost?
Prices vary for Valencia tours. Self-guided audio tours typically cost less than US$10, while group walking and bike tours start at US$20. Expect to pay at least US$75 for specialty experiences, such as paella cooking classes, boat cruises, and day trips—or much more for private excursions.
A well rated tour on the lower end of the price range is the Essentials of Valencia and its World Heritage Sites for around US$24. The 2-hour walking tour shows you major landmarks such as the Silk Exchange and Valencia Central Market, but it's shared with up to 25 people and doesn't include admission to any ticketed sites. The Valencia Highlights With Private Vehicle (Private Tour), which costs US$333, includes your own personal guide and transportation around the city by car. The customizable tour runs for a half day, giving you time to see more of Valencia, and includes entry to one ticketed attraction of your choice.
What activities are included on Valencia tours?
Valencia tours include a variety of activities: Walk, bike, or ride a tuk-tuk on an Old Town sightseeing tour that shows you the city's medieval buildings, people-filled plazas, and scenic Turia Riverbed Gardens. You can also learn how to make traditional paella in a cooking class or enjoy the outdoors on day trips to Albufera Natural Park.
Consider an all-day or multi-day tour to pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, the One Week Intensive Spanish Course With Cultural Activities includes five days of Spanish lessons and immersive experiences, such as a cooking class, flamenco show, and tapas dinners.
How many days in Valencia is enough?
Allow at least three days to see the major sights in and around Valencia. On your first day, explore the Old Town’s architectural highlights, such as the Silk Exchange and Valencia Cathedral. The next day, hit the beach, ride bikes around the Turia Riverbed Gardens, or take a Central Market tour and paella-making class. Round out your trip with a day outside the city, ideally with a boat ride around Albufera Natural Park.
