Valencia Old Town Free Tour with an Official Tour Guide
♡ Save


Explore Valencia's vibrant Ciutat Vella on an engaging tour. Discover icons like La Llotja and the Cathedral alongside secret spots, diving into local culture and dynamic stories—no dull history lessons included!
Forget the dry history walk! Let's explore València's Old Town and get a real look at what the city is like today. We'll talk about the culture, language, and how to enjoy the city authentically & responsibly.
Your Guide: My name's Kevin, I'm an American who moved to Valencia in 2018, married a Valencian, and became an official guide certified by the Valencian Government. I'm also a local influencer, making videos explaining (and poking fun at) Valencian culture. In 1hr 45mins, I show you the Valencia I actually live in.
We start in El Carme and wander the Old Town, past the Serrans Towers, the Cathedral, the UNESCO Silk Exchange, and the Mercat Central. I won't spew out random dates at you. Instead, I'll show you how the history affects the current society and culture.
We get into the Valencian language, the old Kingdom of Valencia, the food you should actually order, and the tourist traps to skip. Expect lots of jokes and honest answers.
English is my native language, and I also speak Spanish and Valencian at a C2 level. I used to be a language teacher, but now I'm a travel advisor too, so I stick around to ask any questions!
Hope to show you around soon!
