Peniscola... a whole

Peñiscola is impressive not only because of the castle, its history and environment (the sea and the citadel with its narrow and picturesque streets) and also its gastronomy, make it a round trip

Went to this excursion with our guide Nino and he was so great! His attention to detail was off the charts.

I loved this experience. The location was so unique and beautiful. Is it definitely very different from the rest of Valencia and difficult to access by yourself, so going with a guide is absolutely necessary. Nino was so great with his attention to details. He made sure we visited certain areas at specific time for weather considerations, which made our trip even more comfortable and enjoyable. He gave us great facts along the way and answered all of our questions. I loved this experience. Would highly recommend.
