About this tour
This six-hour private walking tour threads through Valencia's most compelling landmarks, blending architecture, art and food.

What to expect
Your guide meets you and navigates you through the old quarter on foot, stopping to enter key buildings—you'll skip the ticket queues. Expect tight medieval streets, plazas with fountains, and time to absorb the architectural details. At midday you'll sit down to paella at a local restaurant (vegetarian option available). The pace is measured; this isn't a rushed checklist tour. You'll finish in the late afternoon near the City of Arts and Sciences, which you can explore independently if energy allows.
Good to know
Mondays: the Church of San Nicolás closes, so you'll visit Sant Joan del Hospital instead. Wear comfortable shoes for six hours of walking. Taxis are included but not the City of Arts and Sciences entry fee. Infants sit on adult laps. Vegetarian paella available on request.
