A fascinating tour - Ferran did a great job bringing to life the complex history of the sites we visited. His detailed knowledge of the art, architecture, and history of each place, and his enthusiasm in talking about the history of the city was infectious. There was so much, and it was all so interesting. I would go back for part two of the tour with Ferran if it were offered.

Exciting insights into the architectural history of Valencia - Our excellent guide Ferran (=historian) explained the architectural history of Valencia to us in an entertaining and exciting way over the course of 3 hours. He also repeatedly put the overall context of the history of the rest of Spain into context, so that we could easily put what we were hearing into context. I can only warmly recommend the tour.

Great tour, excellent value for time and money - This was the perfect tour to spend a short visit to Valencia. Combined a walking tour of the old city with entrance and tour of 3 of the essential attractions in Valencia. The guide was very knowledgeable about both history and art which made the tour extra interesting. It was also nice that it ended at the cathedral so more time could be spent there if desired. Highly recommend.

Great first-timer tour - This is an excellent introductory tour to the Old quarter of Valencia. Our tour guide, Paulino (please excuse my misspelling), is a fluent English speaker and did a great job in bringing us to the must see spots in each site. Great historian and answered most of our questions comprehensively. Highly recommend for first-time visitors in Valencia.

Danny was an excellent tour guide, especially if you want an English speaker. - Valencia is a lovely old city to visit. It is well maintained and the food is good. The cathedrals, home to St Nicholas and the other, home to the Holy Grail are worth the visit. Visually beautiful with maintained. Our tour guide was Danny and he did a great job of showing us the sights. Don't miss out on the Hot Chocolate and churros.

Great Tour and Guide! - Overall this is a very nice tour. The only issue was finding the tour group at meetup time. No big deal, just budget a bit more time. We were coming from a cruise ship and were able to let the tour company know our ETA The tour comes with headsets that allow for easy listening to the tour guide. This especially useful in crowded areas near historical sites and narrow streets. This tour also comes with skip the line ability which is huge! The lines are massive to the point where you could spend hours waiting. The tour will allow you to skip those lines and see more The guide spoke very good English. You can ask questions about the tour sites as well as about the city / things to do / people. I would definitely recommend!

Left hanging - Our “private “ tour was cancelled due to a lack of participants. I’m not sure how that happens with a private tour. We went to the meeting spot because we had not received notice from the company. They sent my husband a note on What’s App but because he didn’t have What’s App, we didn’t know. Since all our other communication was via email or text, it would have made more sense to contact us that way to guarantee we were informed. We are waiting for a refund.
