Hi everyone! My name is Jerónimo. I was born in Buenos Aires in 1990, but I have been in love with Valencia for many years. I moved to the city in 2008 where I studied Art History, and stayed here since then, except in short occasions where I lived in Berlin, Madrid and Barcelona. In this last place I attended a masters in International Cultural Cooperation

Tour description

For all those who want to go a little beyond traditional tours, we offer the chance to discover the curiosities that are not usually told, the Valencia that other tours won't show you: History, street anecdotes, or legends will intertwine in a nighttime setting.

We will visit corners of Ciutat Vella, learn details about architecture, discuss the evolution of urban planning, the history of some buildings that have disappeared, very important historical figures for the city's own evolution, and other details, such as legends and curiosities that have been lost in the mists of time or that may go unnoticed at first glance.

This is not a tour of Mysteries or ghosts, but we will find out what happened to that lost column, the origin of the names of streets and squares: toponymy, strange inscriptions on corners, old plaques, signs, and urban scars will be the protagonists, under the moonlight.

We will finish next to the Silk Exchange.
