Wonderful Tour and Guide - Carlos was an amazing guide who showed us so much of Valencia but we never felt rushed. Visited all the highlights including the Silk Exchange and Carhedral with the Holy Grail. Had a lovely lunch and he even helped my daughter find a new dress when her strap broke ;). Outstanding day!!

Valencia Private Tours: Thumbs Up! - Highest marks starting with the initial contact with Valencia Private Tours‘ owner Kate, and continuing through the excellent day spent touring Valencia with private guide Vincent. Kate exudes warmth and professionalism and Vincent was totally knowledgeable and very good company during our eight hour tour. I can highly recommend Valencia Private Tours.

Perfect dinner - The restaurant at the Barcelo hotel in Valencia is a very good choice for dining. We went with friends to dinner, the Service and the quality of what we ate was excellent. The waitresses were on the lookout for everything we could need, no need to call them at all. The service has been more than exquisite, 10 for all staff. The place chosen to sit was perfect, there were 13 diners and they placed us in a shape, that we could all see each other and share the starters without any problem. In short very good professionals.

Best private tour of Valencia! - We only had a couple of days in Valencia, so we decided to take a full-day tour. This was a great choice and allowed us to ensure we saw and learned everything about Valencia within the time we had. Our tour guide, Claire, was amazing. She picked us up and gave us a fantastic tour. She is energetic, positive, and eager to show us this wonderful city. She was always ready to adjust the tour to suit our preferences, but when we didn't have a specific plan, she was prepared with an alternative. For example, the tour started at 9:00, and we hadn't had coffee or breakfast, and Clarie had no problem taking us someplace before the tour even began. She was also great with my children, making sure to engage and point out things that would be interesting to them. Her local knowledge gave us insights we wouldn't have otherwise received. We would take a tour with her again. Claire met us at our hotel in a car and drove us around. The majority of the tour, however, was walking around the older part of the city. She was great at explaining how the organization of the town is connected to its history. When this was done, she drove us to the City of Arts and Sciences. This is not to be missed, and it is my favorite part of the tour. I found it amazing that we could go from ancient Roman ruins to a city that looks like it is from the future. Don't forget to try some Horchata there. Claire led us to some that was the best we had in Spain. Our tour concluded with a drive along the beach and through the farmland. We had another appointment at 5:00, and Claire made sure we were there on time. If you are looking for a personal tour of Valencia, look no further.

Local, expert guides - Our guide was fantastic and super helpful. We got a really complete picture of the city, saw a ton of things, had a wonderful lunch and really enjoyed chatting with her in amongst it all.

Great local real estate insight... outside the city too - We had a custom real estate tour outside of the city. Kate hooked us up with one of her colleagues who had lived in all the areas of interest to us. She gave us practical day-to-day living insight comparing the various locations, and also was able to make contact with realtors and builders for us who had not responded to our online enquiries. The Horchata and ice cream at La Caseta in L’Eliana was fabulous too!

Ancient History, Modern City, and Paella! - What a great day! We had already been in València for a couple of days, and Vicent showed us many details we had missed on our self-tour. We went to a fantastic subterranean museum filled with Roman ruins. The drive to the birthplace of paella is a fun dining experience. We saw so much that day but we still filled another day of touring on our own thanks to Vicent’s recommendations. This is the best way to experience the best of València!

Individual tour with many beautiful impressions - We were there in April 2025 as part of a cruise and wanted to book a tour away from the full bus tours offered via the cruise. The contact was very professional at short notice and within a few hours an individual tour with a guide in our native language (German) was organized. Our tour guide Rick was very knowledgeable and did a great job of adapting the tour to our wishes and needs (two children, one older person who was not so good on foot). A restaurant visit on recommendation and a subsequent return trip to the ship was also organized without further ado. The stories about the beautiful city and the sights were entertaining and informative. Even though the trip was not exactly inexpensive, we enjoyed it very much and it ensured that we will remember Valencia as a particular highlight of our cruise.

All I Can Say Is "WOW" - We first saw Kate on an episode of James in Spain on YouTube. My partner and I immediately thought she could be a great resource as we made our scouting trip to the area in preparation for our move later this summer. What Kate was able to provide us was worth every Euro. Before we even got started, Kate had us meet via WhatsApp and did a great job of finding our hot buttons. More importantly, she helped us (me, specifically) broaden our thinking about where we thought we wanted to be in Spain. While not discouraging some of the communities our research had led us to, she gave us some local insight that helped us ultimately eliminate some of those areas from our prospective home search. She also gave us some ideas to help us open our thinking and boy, am I glad she did. In fact, one of those towns she recommended is now the epicenter of our home search. Kate picked us up on time from the hotel and gave us a quick tour around town. She was attentive to our needs. Specifically, we didn't want our limited time to be consumed with tourist stuff. That will come, but this trip was not that. She then pointed us north of Valencia and introduced my partner and me to a world that we fell in love with. But it wasn't all work and no play. Kate took us to supper at a local restaurant where we enjoyed our first authentic Valencian paella. With the croquettes and other tapas, we were well fed to continue our journeys. At one point, my partner and I noted that Kate is very much “our kind” of people - great sense of humor, well versed in her craft, and someone who is fun to be around. Notably, Kate helped me figure out how to order coffee that wasn't a latte. For us hard-core, old-school coffee drinkers that's of utmost importance. We certainly logged some kilometers as we toured Sagunto, Porto Sagunto, Puzol, El Puig de Santa Maria and more. Kate's local knowledge was invaluable in helping us understand some of the local culture, terminology and generally - how things work. While we’ve been doing tons of internet research, the day with Kate gave us more good info than weeks of YouTube videos. So, all I can say is Wow. Kate far exceeded our expectations and I hope she becomes part of our circle of friends when we finally get settled in.

A day to treasure - Nicole was an excellent guide. Her knowledge added so much to what we were seeing and experiencing. She blended the day with walking through shopping area and then important historical museums. The icing on the cake was going out to Albuferia for paella. A wonderful day.
