The most enjoyable 2 hours of our stay. We learnt so much about the history and culture of Valencia from Monika our guide who answered all our questions with a clear enthusiasm for the city.
Response from Host, May 2025
Hi Dave! Thank you a lot for your review:) We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your tour with us! Best wishes from Valencia&Go Team!
Christian_M, Apr 2025
It is a walking tour that looks at the outside of buildings, churches, and museums. It doesn't include entry into anything. It was almost a pre-tour. The guide was passionate about her city.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Thank you for your feedback! Indeed, this is a 2-hour walking tour that explores the city from the outside, without entering buildings, as specified in the tour description. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the company of our passionate guide!
Virginia_C, Mar 2025
Our guide, Joequin, was very intelligent, engaging and knowledgeable. He was exactly what we were looking for in a private tour of València.! He was also friendly and we really learned a lot and enjoyed ourselves immensely.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Thank you very much for your review! Glad you enjoyed the tour with our guide Joaquin, hope to see you again :)
Jason_N, Jan 2025
Unfortunately when we arrived in Valencia, our bags did not. It took a full 2 days for us to get our bags, and these guys were great in allowing us to reschedule our tour at the last minute (we needed to shop for clothing). Once we had the tour Sonia was great to work with, very helpful in sharing the history of her city, and walking us to areas of interest. She even routed our tour such that we ended our tour right in the main shopping district in case we needed to pick up a few more items. We always try to book a walking tour in the first few days in a new city and this one did not disappoint. Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Hello Jason, we are very happy to know that your experience with us was positive, it is a pleasure for us to collaborate with each of our clients, thank you for trusting Valencia & Go, we hope to see you soon!
Best regards

Sherrie_F, Jul 2024
We loved our walking tour of Valencia! Our tour guide had been a school teacher here in Valencia for over 40 years. She had great personal memories with her family that she shared. We definitely benefited from her experience and we came to love València more because of the care and passion she shared with us.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Hi Sherrie! Thank you a lot for your comment:) We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your tour with us! Best wishes from Valencia&Go Team!
Efrain_C, Jun 2024
Too expensive !! Didn't provide entrance to historical monuments. Tour guide had difficulty explaining historical information.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Good morning Efrain, we want to tell you that the tour you booked does not include tickets to the monuments of the historic center of Valencia, you can check it in the description of the tour you booked.
As for the assigned guide let me inform you that he is an official accredited guide and his work is always wonderful, our customers are always very happy with him, anyway we will take into account your opinion and we will value it to improve day by day.
Thank you very much!
Amy_H, Jun 2024
Sonia was a wonderful ambassador to València and the tour was excellent. I recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about the history, language, art, and culture of the city from someone who knows it inside and out. Sonia also marked up a map for us showing other museums and attractions that were interesting to us with the times when they were open. It was great—everything we hoped it would be!
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you for trusting Valencia & Go! We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your tour. We will forward your nice message to Sonia.
Thank you for your review and hopefully see you back soon

Our guide Sonia was ready and waiting for us, and led our group of four on a rambling tour of Valencia’s historic centre. Her English was excellent and her knowledge of what to see and the history of the town surpassed our expectations. Thoroughly recommended.

My wife was pickpocketed during our walking tour so sadly we had to cut the tour short in order to report the theft to the credit card company. But our tour guide Paulinho was very knowledgeable and a good guide.

Lee_d, Apr 2024
Sonia, having grown up in Valencia and worked many years in the Valencian tourist industry, was a wealth of information, very helpful & friendly, and just plain fun as a 2-hr companion. Highly recommend as a tour for 2+ (I was alone and paid a premium for that, making the tour a bit pricey).
Response from Host, Apr 2024
We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your tour with Sonia! Thank you for your review and hopefully see you back in Valencia soon:)

rcwisni, Mar 2024
Fernando was knowledgeable, very friendly, and when we told him we like history, he shared much about the history of Valencia. He pointed out little things like interpretations of carvings that gave me a much better understanding than I would have had if I were just seeing it on my own. My 82 year old mom was able to keep up with the pace he set - he catered the tour to us because it was private for 4 people in my family. It was fun to hear a local’s perspective. Recommend!
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Hello Ruth! It´s such a pleasure to know that you liked our tour! We hope to see you back soon in Valencia. Best wishes to you and your family!
