A highly skilled guide ! I fully recommend - Highly recommended, Marcela (the tour guide) is uncredible. She loves sharing her knowledge and the way she is doing it is very interesting (with lots of stories, anecdotes). Apart from that she's very kind, and skilled. She knows all the facts and history of Valencia. Contact her, you will not regret !
