Hello! I am Juan Carlos, a globetrotting Valencian who loves to travel and share with other travelers all the knowledge, passions, emotions and tastes of any destination, especially those of my city, Valencia. I consider myself a nomadic Valencian, extroverted, friendly, enthusiastic, open-minded, fun, passionate about tourism and design, daring, demanding, a dreamer, involved... I like to live experiences, and that people live experiences, I love knowing every corner of the world, explore, learn, discover, teach, share... in short, live to the fullest.
If you want to discover Valencia and its most beautiful corners and most interesting stories, join the most authentic walking tour in town!
After years of adventures in Europe and other places, I am back home so that we can walk together through the historical and beautiful streets of Valencia so you can take with you the best memories and experiences that "la terreta" has to offer.
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 the past.
Starting with the impressive Serranos Towers and then strolling through the narrow 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 noble street and its palaces, the Cathedral, the squares around it and finishing in the Central Market and Silk Market, the nerve centres of gastronomy and history.
This is your moment to discover Valencia :)
You will find me at the door of Torres de Serranos with a Guruwalk board.
The stunning and beautiful medieval main gates to enter into the old town of Valencia.
We will see from the outside one of the shelters protecting the civilians from the bombs dropped by the fascist army.
One of the few remains walls and towers from the fascinating Muslim period in our region.
One of the doors separating two districts, two cultures, two religions but at the same time connecting people. This point will allow us to learn about the Arab heritage in the Valencian culture nowadays.
The main noblemen avenue from the old town with beautiful houses that keep in its colours what once became a powerful Mediterranean kingdom.
The historical and important Valencian government palace which represents the autonomous rule of the medieval Kingdom of Valencia.
The perfect spot to learn about the origins of Valentia during the Roman Empire time. This square is considered the oldest one in town!
A very unique cathedral in Europe thanks to the mix of different architectural styles, we will do a loop around this building to find all of them and also to discover what makes this cathedral very important for Christianity.
The first long straight avenue of Valencia during the Modernism period. Thanks Paris for that!
The biggest fresh food market in Europe! The wonderful central market of our gastronomy gathering the products growing in the orchards around Valencia.
Last but not least, the beautiful Silk Exchange Market. The best example of the influence from the Valencian commerce during its Golden Age in the 15th century.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
