Free walking tour in Sagunto, 2500 years of History.

Sagunto is a city of Edetana origin (A.R.S.E since the 5th century BC) of alternation and coexistence of Iberians, Romans, Visigoths, and Arabs living with Jews and Christians.
During the Roman period, it took the name Saguntum and during the Arab occupation, it was known as Morvedre or Murviedro. Since the 19th century, the name of Sagunto (Sagunt in Valencian) has been used until the present day.
Place of beginning in 218 BC of the Second Punic War between the Carthaginians under the command of Hannibal and the Iberian population allied to Rome. Its beautiful theater and its spectacular and important castle do not leave any visitor indifferent with magnificent views in Hercules´tower (more than 30 miles and almost 360 degrees - no to much city tours with these kind of views in the World -.)
Scene of military sites, battles, and conflicts even before the year 0, in the Reconquista, Napoleonic Invasion, and Spanish Civil War, it is a comfortable city where in just 2 hours on foot you can learn about its history and legends safely after this tour return to this well-connected and beautiful city at any time of the year, as its beaches and typical dishes are ranked as the best in Europe.

Hello, I'm Alex. I have 20 years of experience in the tourism sector and I am a lover of Ancient, Medieval, and Modern History. On the free walking tour of Sagunto, we will review more than 20 centuries of history, religion, and customs. You will have the opportunity to visit places that existed before the year 0, where ancient streets, such as "Los Escipiones", "Circo", or "Muralla", still maintain their original names. Sagunto is a fabulous place, and you will not leave indifferent, as it is a visit that begins at 49 meters above sea level and reaches 170 meters (depending on the desired visit inside the castle) with views of 30 nautical miles of the Mediterranean Sea, weather permitting, which is very unusual for a 2-hour city tour. The ethnographic complexity of the city is also notable, where different cultures have coexisted, presenting a varied architecture in the different areas we will visit. The city has been well connected for over 2,000 years, so we hope you'll return to its monuments, beaches, and gastronomy. I'll recommend additional important things to do in the surrounding area and suggest places to try Mediterranean, Sephardic, or Arabic dishes, as well as interesting facts about the city. Welcome to the ancient city of Arse, and thank you in advance for your choice.
