Rejseplan
Vores fantastiske tur starter ved Torres de Serranos, hvor vi mødes for at lave en introduktion af Valencias historie, hvor vi taler om den gamle hovedport til middelaldermuren, forbindelsen med Turia-floden og de forskellige mure, som Valencia havde.
Vidste du, hvor mange paladser der har Valencia? Vi vil opdage, hvorfor så mange omkring Barrio del Carmen...
Kendt som "Valenciens Sixtinske Kapel", er San Nicolás et af de mest attraktive templer i byen med næsten 2.000 kvadratmeter perfekt restaurerede fresker, der efterlader de besøgende forpustede. De spektakulære malerier, der dekorerer hvælvingen, repræsenterer det dobbelte overfladeareal af freskoerne i Det Sixtinske Kapel i Rom. Med mere end 700 år gammel er Sankt Nikolaus, som allerede var et sted for tilbedelse i romertiden, før det blev en moské og en kristen kirke senere, et klart eksempel på sameksistens perfekt mellem et tempel med en gotisk struktur og en pragtfuld barokudsmykning.
Det er en overraskende gotisk bygning, der placerer Valencia by på listen over verdensarvssteder. Det er ikke let at se store civile bygninger af gotisk arkitektur, som vi i vores fantasi i højere grad har knyttet til de store katedraler i Central- og Sydeuropa. Af denne grund blev Lonja de la Seda i 1996 erklæret som verdensarvssted af UNESCO. Dette internationale organ begrunder erklæringen, fordi den er et usædvanligt eksempel på civil gotik og repræsenterer styrken af handelen i middelhavsbyer under dens opførelse. Det blev bygget på kun 15 år i løbet af det 15. århundrede. Vi går ind for at opdage, hvorfor det var så vigtigt med silke.
Bygget på et gammelt romersk tempel, der senere var en moské. I katedralen i Valencia observerer vi talrige elementer fra forskellige perioder, fra romansk til barok. Byggeriet begyndte i det XIII århundrede, med adskillige reformer gennem århundreder, vi finder denne monumentale bygning. Vidste du, at den hellige kalk er i katedralen i Valencia? Og at det også rummer et af de vigtigste billedværker fra den første spanske renæssance? Historie og kunst blandes i katedralen. Dens vægge og døre beskytter også skatte lige så værdifulde som den hellige kalk. Mange undersøgelser mener, at Valencias gral er den, Jesus brugte ved den sidste nadver. Derfor brugte paver Johannes Paul II og Benedikt XVI dette levn i fejringen af eukaristien på deres besøg i Valencia. En anden af katedralens juveler er renæssancefreskoerne på højalteret i Valencia-katedralen, som blev genopdaget for ti år siden, da den barokke hvælving, der dækkede dem, blev fjernet.
Basilika og katedral på samme plads, hvilken udsigt! hvilken historie! Vi afslutter turen her, men opdager de sidste vigtige punkter i vores kultur.

Expert and knowledgeable guide. Positive experience, highly recommended!!!
Excellent tour. Found out lots about the sights and Valencia from Paolino. The entrances to the monuments are included which is really good especially on a hot day and you see the long queues waiting in the sun. Highly recommended.
Friendly and knowledgeable guide. Great experience. I highly recommend it.
Grazie mille! Siamo felicissimi che abbiate apprezzato il tour e che la nostra guida abbia reso l'esperienza piacevole con la sua simpatia e preparazione. Grazie anche per la raccomandazione: speriamo di rivedervi presto a Valencia per un'altra esperienza insieme!
We really enjoyed this visit. Sonia (the guide) explained everything very well, and if you asked her something, she would respond with a thorough explanation without getting annoyed. Moreover, she is very friendly and accompanied us to the heart of Valencia, also telling us about the typical festival of Las Fallas (I am not sure if it is spelled this way). Even though she is Valencian, she spoke Italian well. I highly recommend it; I hope you get Sonia as your guide.
Grazie mille! Siamo felicissimi che abbiate apprezzato la visita e che Sonia abbia reso l'esperienza così piacevole. Le farà davvero piacere leggere le vostre parole! E sì, la festa si chiama *Las Fallas* 😉. Grazie per la raccomandazione e speriamo di rivedervi presto a Valencia!
Positive experience, excellent guide.
Grazie mille per la splendida recensione! Sonia sarà entusiasta di leggere le vostre parole. Speriamo di potervi accogliere nuovamente a Valencia molto presto!
The guide was very skilled, explained well the main things to know, and also provided some curiosities about Valencia and useful tips for living better in Valencia. Thank you
Grazie mille per la splendida recensione, Giovanni! 😊 Siamo felici che abbia apprezzato il tour e le spiegazioni della nostra guida. Speriamo di rivedervi presto per un'altra esperienza insieme!
Value was good considering we gained entry to multiple spots we would have had to otherwise wait in line and purchase admission separately for. The tour felt long with a bit of time waiting around that seemed it could have been maximized since there is so much to see in Valencia. We could not hear or understand our guide and left us feeling like we didn't learn much and made the overall experience unengaging. Directions to meetup were unlcear as the meeting point is a rather large area with multiple tours meeting in one spot. We did look frantically for the white sign with blue ribbon and could not find our group and were nearly left behind, along with another group of 3 that was lost too - for a total of 7, or half the group, almost left behind and then started without. Our guide also left people behind in the bathroom after encouraging a stop, then continuing on without the people who chose to use the restroom. Overall, I am happy we went simply for the expedited access, but everything else left a lot to be desired. I was hoping to learn more about the city and the history.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the priority access, although we are sorry that other aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations. Regarding the meeting point, we always send a Google Maps link, a photo of the meeting point, and the guide's name and photo before the tour. Our office team is also available by phone and WhatsApp to help guests find the group. May we ask if you tried contacting us? We would have been happy to assist you. We are also sorry to hear that you had difficulty hearing the guide. If this had been mentioned during the tour, the guide would have happily spoken louder or invited you to move closer. As for the restroom stop, our guides do not intentionally leave guests behind. It is possible those participants informed the guide that they would not be continuing with the tour. Thank you again for your comments. We will share your feedback with our team as we continue working to improve our guests' experience.
We wanted to get an overview of the city history and sites. Catalina was an awesome guide. She was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited and truly cared about what we were learning and seeing. I highly recommend her and the tour. Was great to skip the lines at all the venues. Highlight was the light show at St Nicholas church. To note - we did the tour on a Sunday so the Central Market was closed. Not a big deal cause we went back another day.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Pam! We're delighted that Catalina helped bring Valencia's history to life and made your experience so enjoyable. She'll be thrilled to hear your kind words. We hope to welcome you back to Valencia again soon!
Beautiful and informative tour! Each of the sites were spectacular. City center in Valencia is lovely. Guide was knowledgeable and answered everyone’s questions. It would have been helpful if the guide wore a speaker and we had headsets. At times it was difficult to hear what he was saying at when he turned to whatever we were viewing.
Thank you very much for your review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the tour and that you found the sites and the city center of Valencia beautiful and informative. We also appreciate your comment regarding the sound. We understand that at busy monuments and outdoor settings, it can sometimes be difficult to hear clearly, and your suggestion about using a microphone and headsets is very helpful. We will take this into account as we continue working to improve the experience. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future.
Well done. Our guide was very excellent and gave a great experience. We had a financial issue with our payment since there was a slight itinerary change that had to be resolved the day prior. The tour operator was prompt at taking care the issue with several last minute emails.
Thank you for your wonderful review, Peter! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour and had such a great experience with our guide. Thank you for your patience, and we hope to welcome you back to Valencia soon!
