Free Tour: Explore Valencia's Melting Pot of Cultures with a Local

This tour is special because it is thought of as a journey through time over more than 2000 years, taking as a reference the most emblematic buildings where key events in the history of the city took place.

Would you like to discover the rich history and culture of the city of Valencia? Let yourself be accompanied by a true local official guide who is very passionate and knowledgeable about her hometown. Valencia is an amazing city where I'll help you discover spectacular places and endless curiosities.

I am Lucia, a prior languages teacher and aid worker. I love travelling, and that is why I know very well what makes a place special. I have lived in exciting countries like Ethiopia, Burma, and China, as well as the UK and Ireland.

You will have the opportunity to explore the legacies left by the Romans, Moors, and Christians. I will tell you the legends of relevant historical characters, such as the Borgia dynasty or James I, King of Aragon.

Our tour includes visits to North Train Station (meeting point), Town Hall Square, the Palace of the Marquis of Dos Aguas, the Cathedral, the Basilica, the Generalitat Palace, Saint Nicholas Church, the Silk Exchange Market, and the Central Market.

I will share anecdotes and provide recommendations to help you make the most of your stay in the city, including suggestions for restaurants serving paella and tapas.
