Overview
From ancient Roman foundations to modern architecture, Valencia is a city that has mastered the art of reinvention — built, burnt, rebuilt, conquered, and reborn. Beneath its warm Mediterranean light, the city reveals layers of Roman, Moorish, Gothic, and contemporary heritage, each shaping its unique character.
On the Welcome to Valencia tour, we’ll uncover more than 2,000 years of history: starting at La Almoina, the birthplace of the city, continuing to the grand Lonja de la Seda, and exploring the lively Mercado Central, where local life beats every day. We’ll admire the Gothic Cathedral of Santa María, said to house the Holy Grail, and wander through plazas filled with stories of faith, conquest, and tradition.
Valencia is also a land of flavors, so we’ll share the origins of its most iconic tastes: the legendary paella from Albufera, the refreshing horchata, and the festive Agua de Valencia.
This tour is the perfect introduction to a city of sunlight and stories — a journey through history, culture, and flavor that captures the true spirit of Valencia.
