Very interesting route and with a lot of information. Belén was very attentive to giving us all the necessary information. I highly recommend it.
Very good tour. Paulino was very punctual and well prepared. He explained the cathedral with depth and great clarity. My family and I loved it.
Paulino was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable and kind. It was amazing! It was very hot. It might be nice to add a stop to get a cold drink.
Absolutely phenomenal tour. The tour guides expertise was second to none. He had so much knowledge and details about all the different artifacts, cathedrals, landmarks I was absolutely blown away. He really was a master at helping tell compelling stories and was so kind.
The guide was very good and pleasant. The two hours flew by. Highly recommended to learn about the city and its historical evolution to the present day.
Good tour. In 2 hours, you can see the main monuments and the cathedral in depth. Valencia has beautiful architecture. Interesting and recommendable.
Our tour start and instructions were very clear. We were blessed to have Yago as our tour guide and he was amazing. He is a historian through and through and he knew so much about everything we saw. It was very nice to be able to ask questions and have conversations about the architecture, history, and modernism around the areas we walked by. There was also a lot of shaded areas during our 3pm start time which was very nice as we stopped to observe buildings and plazas. Overall, I highly recommend! Thank you Yago!
Tour is too long, Sites, of limited interest. Tour could be cut in half to cover the sites of interest.
