What to expect

You'll start in Valencia's Old Town, navigating compact medieval lanes before entering Turia Park—a former riverbed converted to a linear garden. The pace is steady and conversational; your guide stops periodically to point out significant buildings and explain their role in the city's story. As you approach the City of Arts and Sciences, the landscape shifts dramatically to open plazas and sculptural structures. The tour focuses on viewing these buildings from outside, with your guide detailing their design philosophy and purpose rather than entering galleries.
