This tour was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide (David) was phenomenal. He showed us so many cool things across the different eras observable in the Old Town. Additionally, he provided so many options to tailor the tour to our interests. We had plenty of chances to take breaks, have some drinks and snack, and even talk with another group who happened to be sitting nearby and learn even more about Valencia and other parts of Spain. We would definitely recommend all take this extremely enlightening and comfortable tour to learn the history of Valencia.

Valencia is a very beautiful city. There is a lot of history there with stunning architecture that never loses the charm of a small city. Especially the historical downtown. Luciana our tour guide was great, she gave us food tips and has a rich knowledge of the city. Don’t miss this.
Jessica_G, Apr 2026
We had an incredible time on this tour! Our tour guide was super kind, informative, and took lots of pictures for us. He was open to our input and willing to shape the tour based off of what we wanted. We really enjoyed our stops at the Serranos Towers (I think this place is only open limited days), the Silk Exchange, La Horchateria de Santa Catalina, and the Jardin de Monforte.
Mark_M, Apr 2026
Dan knew the accepted history and the urban legend about many of the sights. Made for plenty of laughs during the tour.

Me and my wife had a great time, Max our tour guide was great, he’s very knowledgeable and patient, thank you so much.
David_M, Nov 2025
This was a private tour. I like small tours as I feel that I get a much better grasp on the city (or other sites) as opposed to a large group. Max was an awesome guide. He is an architect by trade and imparts his knowledge in such a way that you feel like you are part of the city and appreciate the beauty around you.
Thomas_W, Oct 2025
Max took us on a tour of the old city with a historical and architectural emphasis. He was knowledgeable and personable so the time flew by.
JORGE_R, Sep 2025
The four hour tour was perfect to get a good flavor of Valencia. Max The tour person was very pleasent and nice with good information about history and the city.
Emma_H, Sep 2025
Max was the most incredible guide for our first time visit to Valencia, his knowledge of the city’s heritage and his background in architecture made it a fun and very interesting few hours, plus he indulged in our questions and conversation like a pro! Thanks for a fantastic time 🤩

A very comprehensive walking tour through the old town of València. Very thorough. Our guide was very willing to accommodate what areas we would like to see.
Will_D, Aug 2025
We had a great few hours with Elena! We wondered around the city whilst she told us facts about Valencia. We stopped for Horchata and went into some cool buildings and churches.
If I had one comment, I'd say it could have been shorter because of the heat was so strong.
A solid experience.
Response from Host, Aug 2025

Regarding the tour length, we always follow the duration booked to ensure guests receive the full experience they paid for.

Bog, Jul 2025
It was below average tour. Guide was nice but was very slow going and not assertive to take the lead on where we were going. Didn’t give much info unless we asked questions
Response from Host, Jul 2025
We repudiate this review because it does not belong to our company, we never had a client with this name, besides our guides are of the highest quality, we will ask them to remove it.
Erin_F, Jul 2025
Max walked us all over Valencia, what a beautiful city! He was prompt, personable, and did a nice job of taking us to common tourist spots, secret quiet places, as well as customizing by what we wanted to see. We would book again.
Sharay_B, Jul 2025
Lucas was a great host. He was very accommodating to what we wanted to do and see while keeping us on track with the planned tour.

Lucas was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. It was an extremely hot day and he was very accommodating with changing a few things around for us. Loved Valencia and the tour.
Jessie_H, Jun 2025
Great way to see Valencia’s highlights, learn its history and discover gems off the beaten path. This was a very well thought out tour and would highly recommend. My husband was in his wheelchair for the tour and we had no issues visiting the different sites and the path was very easy and manageable. Our guide, Wojtek was always mindful of our needs throughout the tour and we enjoyed every part of the tour.
