Great guide around the center of valencia - Great guide, very knowledgable and a lot of passion. He walked us around and relayed the entire dynasty of the borjas and left no site unseen.

Very informative - Paulino was a very knowledgeable guide. Learnt a lot about the Borgias, got to skip the queue at the cathedral and see the holy grail before that chapel closed at 11:00.

Excellent tour that you don’t want to miss! - Our tour guide was knowledgeable, full of life and made the tour exciting and fun. We had watched the Borgia series on American Tv but never knew about all of the connections to Valencia.

Walking Tour In Valencia - We booked a Spanish language tour because it was the only one that fit our timeframe and guessing we could pick up enough information (not the best idea in hindsight) . Paulino was our tour guide, he was simply fantastic, it could not have been better. He spoke English well enough to go through the entire tour without a flaw. He is a very nice guy and you could tell from his interactions with other guides, everyone like him. It was the best guided tour we had in our 15 day visit to Spain.
