Tour description


Do you want to know the rich history and culture of the city of Valencia? Let yourself be accompanied by an official native guide, very passionate and knowledgeable about her hometown.

This tour is special because it is planned as a journey in time through a rich history of more than 2,000 years, visiting the most emblematic buildings where key events took place. I will reveal the legacy left by Romans, Arabs and Christians and I will talk about legendary characters who lived in Valencia such as the Borgia dinasty, or Jaime I, King of Aragon.

Our tour includes visit to the following areas:
1. North Train Station, a jewel of art noveau architecture
2. Town Hall Square, an area full of spectacular buildings  
3
. Palace of Marquis of Two Waters, National Museum for Ceramics
4. Queen Square: St. Catherine Tower, Micalet Tower
5. Virgin Square: Cathedral , Basilica of the Virgin and Generalitat Palace.
6. Saint Nicholas Church, called Valencian Sistine Chapel
7. Market Square: Silk Exhange Market (UNESCO World Heritage Site), Santos Juanes Church and the Central Market, a marvel for the senses.
