Valencia Old Town free walking tour in English with a local!

If you want to discover the old town of València and its most interesting stories, join the most authentic walking tour in town!

After years of adventures in Europe and other places in the world, I am back home so that we can walk together through the historical and beautiful streets of València so you can take with you the best memories and experiences from our home.

We will visit corners, streets and squares, monuments, buildings and gardens that tell stories and legends or even spaces that no longer exist but are part of our past.

Starting with the impressive Serrans Towers and its location next to the River of Túria, then strolling through the old city streets, learning about the Spanish Civil War in the 30s or jumping back into the past to discover the Arab legacy of Balansiya, walking through the main noblemen streets and its palaces, the Cathedral, the squares around it and finishing in the Central Market and Silk Market, the nerve centre of gastronomy and social life.  

Before booking this tour, keep in mind that this is a history and art-oriented tour that offers in depth insights about the past of València and its current situation. We will also touch the history of Spain for a better understanding of the context of our history and culture. 

If you are looking for a comprehensive tour that covers past and current history, conflicts, politics, gastronomy, architecture and social-economical talks, then this is your tour 😌

⚠️ Please don’t forget to cancel the tour if you can no longer attend so other people have the opportunity to join as we have limited spaces. 

❗️Important info for small group reservations: if you book for more than 5 people, it’s required minimum 10€ (ten euro) per person. 

Looking forward to seeing you in the tour! This is your moment to discover València! 

The tour lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes

I like to live experiences and share them with others. I love getting to know every corner of the world, exploring, learning, discovering, teaching, sharing... in short, living life to the fullest.
