What you can expect
“This isn't just a tour — it's Valencia through the eyes of those who call it home”
Begin your guided tour of Valencia in the Virgin’s Square, the heart of the historic center of the city. Under our feet the city of Valentia was founded by the Romans. All around us we will discover the Cathedral, the Basilica of the Virgin and the fountain representing our river Turia with its irrigation channels.
Hear about two important traditions that take place here: the floral offering to the Virgin of the Forsaken during the Fallas and the meetings of the Water Court (Intangible Heritage of Humanity). Alongside the religious and spiritual power of the city, discover the nucleus of political power: the Palau de la Generalitat.
Continue to the Serranos Towers, the main gateway to the walled city, and look out over the old Turia riverbed, which has become a green lung for the city.
Next, visit the Old Silk Market, a symbol of the prosperity and commercial influence that Valencia experienced during the 16th century. Then, admire the modernist architecture of the Central Market of Valencia, the largest specialty market in Europe.
Finish your guided tour in the City Hall Square, with many recommendations for you to continue enjoying your experience in Valencia.
It's a tip-based tour. At the end of the experience you can give your guide what you think the tour was worth. Usually, the tip is between 10€ and 20€.
