Get to know the essence of the city of Valencia guided by a local Valencian.

What better way to get to know Valencia than with a certified professional guide who was born, lived and loves his city deeply? We will visit the most emblematic places in the city and even wander through some places where tourists don't go, to delve into different historical periods, from the founding of the city to what Valencia is today, full of historical facts, medieval legends, dark events, somewhat bizarre and acid stories and a long etc. Did you know that Valencia is the only city almost surrounded by orchards in the world? The Arab legacy is still present in the surroundings of Valencia. Do you want to know what we Valencians are like, how we take life? What are our customs? We will start in what was one of the most strategic places in ancient Valencia, the old Turia Riverbed , passing by the Serranos Towers, the main entrance gate to the Medieval city that would replace another. We will wander through areas of the Barrio del Carmen , my dear and beloved neighborhood, commenting on its labyrinthine streets, historical facts, we will see the Arab wall where you least expect it, street art , the decadence and authenticity of the 80s and 90s when it was a bohemian and multicultural neighborhood and other curiosities. We will pass by the Torre de San Bartomé or rather the orphan tower ... to stay at the Palacio de la Generalitat, here a question awaits you ..., We will move on to one of the most beautiful squares in Valencia and I would say in the world, the Plaza de la Virgen , we will talk about its entire set, about traditions, the orchards of Valencia, celebrations, etc. In the same square we will begin to talk about the Cathedral of Valencia, a cathedral that stands out for several relevant reasons, I will not say more, we will go around it until we reach the Micalet, one of the most beloved monuments by the Valencians. We will cross the Plaza la Reina, passing by one of the most beautiful bell towers in the city and possibly in all of Spain, Santa Catalina, to reach the Plaza Redonda complex with several curiosities, a square that I have been visiting since I was a child and I have also seen its entire cultural transformation. From there we will talk about the entire market square, I will talk about its beginnings, its evolution and the events that were held there, get ready. Next up is the Plaza del Ayuntamiento de Valencia, a square that has been constantly changing since its time and a meeting point for all Valencians, and we will end up at the beautiful Estación del Norte , a jewel of Valencian modernism. Because Valencia has a history of more than 2000 years, there will be stops where I will expand more and curiosities that come along the way that I will briefly comment on. Getting to know the city of Valencia and its surroundings would require days, weeks or months. Many stories await you. I'll wait for you.
