The was one of the best excursions we have ever take and at an excellent value. Our guide Sharin kept in touch with us prior to the date and gave perfect instructions on where to meet her from our cruise ship. She showed us the newer sections of Valencia and its beautiful green spaces before we then went on a walking tour of the Old City. Sharin was so informative and you could tell that she really loved sharing the history and beauty of Valencia with us. After the tour, we then had an amazing lunch at this cute private venue where the tapas were amazing and plentiful and the wine was free flowing. Sharin then made sure that everyone from our group were safely put into taxis ( which the tour provided) and returned to our ship in plenty of time. This was a small group tour which made it even nicer (our group had 6 people and there was another group of 8 that had their own guide) We loved everything about the day and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Valencia.

Tuathla, our guide was AMAZING! She was engaging and very knowledgeable. The tour was a wonderful mix of the Arts & Sciences and València’s major monuments. The tapas and wine were a fantastic end to our tour. Valencia is now our favorite city!

The best trip during our stay in Valencia. Our guide Daniel was amazing and so was the food, the drinks and the location! Thank you for an unforgetable evening.

Boglarka did an excellent job. I loved all 3 parts - the old town, the city of arts & sciences & the rooftop tapas and wine

I saw the best view of the sunset in Valencia from the highest building of the city! We tasted amazing local wines and tapas, I loved it. The tour is highly recommended and 100% worth it.

We had a tour of the older Gothic area of the city, and then moved on to the newer science focused part of the city. Then rooftop tapas. The tour guide Martha was one of the highlights of the trip. She was proud of her city and that showed during the tour. The other highlight was the young chef who made the tapas. Both of these employees are absolute gems.

The communication with the company was super. We booked direct and fully understood where they picked us up and when. We were met by our tour guide and her driver the van for the 6 of us was very comfortable. Shrine was a wonderful tour guide. Very knowledgeable and a very pleasant demeanor. Great pace. Our group kept going into stores and she had a great attitude. So fun. The food, wine, service, quality, and venue were amazing.

This was an incredible introduction to the stunning city of Valencia, perfect for cruise ship passengers. our guide contacted us the night before and the morning of the tour to make sure we were okay and arrived on time. Emma was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and a great tour guide! she gave us great insight into living in Valencia and the history of the city. The tour started with an easy walk through the old town, markets and city squares before heading to the city of arts and sciences. we finished with a 8 course Tapas tasting on a roof top terrace with amazing views of the city, the port and the mountains in the distance, accompanied with a great selection of wines, the tapas is to die for! amazing food, wine and great company 10/10 recommend.

This was a fabulous tour; we had a fantastic time! Bogi was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. We were able to see so much of the old and new cities and learn a lot about the history of Valencia. Plus, the tapas and wine at the end of the tour we're the icing on the cake! Plentiful and delicious. Highly recommend this tour. So glad I found it rather than going through the cruise line. They'd easily charge double ;)

Bogi was a friendly and helpful guide that made efficient use of our half day tour to cover both the old and new parts of town in Valencia. She met us at the Trasmed cruise terminal, which was a short shuttle ride away from our cruise berth. Ciudad de Artes y Ciencias was definitely a highlight and she took some great pics of us there and at other locations along the way. I didn't expect quite so much walking, but it was manageable. Transportation is via the local Uber-like taxi service, which she arranged for us. The final part of the day was the multi-course tasting at Sea Saffron's rooftop office location, which offered an amazing panoramic view of Valencia. The tapas were tasty and filling, and I was particularly impressed with the wine selection as I wasn't aware that Valencia was a wine producing region. Overall this trip was a great value and much better than shore excursions offered by the cruise line.
