Tour description

Valencia, in its old town, contains mysteries, legends and secrets that are part of its history.
Do you know that in the center we have our "witches" street?
Or, that in the Market Square, between the Central Market and the Lonja, was where the gallows was for those sentenced to death? I discover Valencia, not only with a history, but also with those stories that at some point were part or not of the city.
Our meeting point will be the Serrano Towers , which contain a dark legend for those who arrive late to the closing of the city's access gates. We will continue to the so-called "Witches Street", a narrow street, where potions and ointments helped cure even lovesickness.
From there, we will go to the Palau de la Generalitat , where cases of ghosts have been documented. We will walk until we reach the so-called House of the Goblins ... Which still remains a mystery!!
We will continue to the Church of Santos Juanes, the Market Square, the Church of Santa Catalina , to end up discovering that Sweeny Todd was probably Valencian...
Do you dare to explore the city in a different way??

Historia, leyendas, curiosidades... Una suma de grandes conocimientos en un tour guiado por el centro de Valencia pasando por los monumentos más emblemáticos de la ciudad y por rincones que esconden un misterioso e interesante pasado. No faltó un momento de intriga y emoción, ya no sólo por la importancia e interés de la narrativa, sino también por la entonación y ritmo de la historia. Sin duda, Eva ha sido la mejor guía que he podido tener hasta el momento, y no son pocas las ciudades que he recorrido con tours de este tipo tanto dentro como fuera de España. Un recorrido largo que se hizo fugaz al escuchar la emoción de sus palabras. Salta a la vista que le apasiona su trabajo y lo transmite con gran entusiasmo.
