John - Tour Guide in Valencia

Hello there! My name is John and I've lived in various places around the world, including New York City, Miami, Austin, Toronto, New Zealand, London, Portugal and now I'm here, in beautiful Valencia. I've been here for over five years now and it's because the city is obviously gorgeous but the people are wonderful, as well! But it wasn't always like this. This place has seen some incredible, and sometimes bloody, history since its founding as a settlement over 3,000 years ago. It's changed hands more than a few times! I love history and have studied the history of Valencia since I arrived. Let me show you some of my favourite parts and some of its secrets, as well as, where to go to find the best food, beaches and markets! Cheers! Salud!

This was my second tour with our guide, and once again he made it unforgettable. He was not only funny and engaging but also incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating details that brought every stop to life. His energy and humor kept everyone entertained, and he truly made the experience feel special. I highly recommend taking a tour with him—you’ll learn, laugh, and enjoy every moment. I’ll definitely be booking again!

We really enjoyed this walking tour in Valencia! John was a great guide. The way he spoke made the history super engaging and easy to follow. I also liked the group size, it felt personal without being too small. A perfect mix of learning and fun, highly recommend! :)
