We had a wonderful experience visiting Valencia and the surrounding area orchestrated by the experienced guides Sonia, Claire and Nicole. Besides visiting Valencia we went to Alcala del Jucar, Teruel and Alabrracim. If you are looking for different and customized experiences, I highly recommend the services of Valencia Private Tours.

Angel_T

Javier was excellent. Very knowledgeable and friendly. We truly enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it.

Melanie_L

Simply amazing; ask for Sonya — she is so knowledgeable, interesting and adds humor! She’s a must to get the most!

Bruce S

I highly recommend this tour group. Sonia was our personal guide for two days in Valencia. She was wonderful. She was energetic, knowledgeable, very nice and spoke English extremely well. She explained the history of Valencia in a thoughtful manner with great respect for it's background. We experienced food and drink through the tour. She brought us to her family's favorite paella restaurant to experience "real" Valencian paella. If we return for another visit to the South of Spain, we will certainly use this service and Sonia.

Thank you so much, Kate! You enthusiastically shared your love for Spain, particularly Valencia. You are a fantastic teacher of Spanish history. Our group spent a day long trip with you to L'albufera where paella originated, (rice paddies, a boat trip on the lagoon, local lunch) and a visit to the castle hilltop town of Xavita. Along the journey you summarized Spain’s rich history from prehistoric farming to its present day thriving democracy as only a gifted storyteller/historian can. As you said and all of us agreed Spain has to learn how to market its rich heritage better to the world. We were enthralled the whole time. Kate you so energetic, happy, funny and personable we are thankful to have met you. Dan and Sandy OMeara

Kate was very efficient and knew great local spots as well as tourist spots and we were able to see most of the key attractions.

Susan_C

Marta was an outstanding guide. She added so much information and personal touches throughout the tour. Valencia became a favorite for my friends and reinforced for me that I must return and spend more time. You can plan on a top notch experience with this tour.

Our tour with Sarah was amazing and impressive! Her extensive academic knowledge about the history of Valencia and her genuine enthusiasm and passion of the region transformed us back to life and times of the people who lived during that period… we felt the hope, the love, the joy, and the pride of the people of Valencia’s long rich history. Sarah taught us about events that weren’t discussed much in our history classes… it will open your heart and mind to what the region offered and continues to do so. We were immersed in a time where different religions and cultures (Jews, Catholics and Moors) worked together to bring about prosperity within the region… both in times of war and peace and how it impacts our lives today. A tour with Sarah is not to be missed! Thank you, Sarah for transforming us back to a time long ago!

I had the pleasure of traveling to Spain for work. With the extra few days I took I decided to book a private tour with Kate who owns Valencia Private Tours. Let me tell you how surprised I was with the way everything was set up. Kate is the most wonderful person with an incredible personality. Her knowledge of Spain is absolutely incredible and I feel like I got extremely lucky to have had her as a tour guide. She did not let me miss any part of the tour and what we were doing. I 100% would recommend Kate to anyone traveling to Spain. It was an experience I would never forget and worth ever penny.

Norah_G

We had the most amazing day. Kate, our guide, was excellent company and so knowledgeable. Her enthusiasm was infectious. Her many stories and anecdotes made the history of Valencia come alive. Highlights included the old city, the CAS, the lagoon and a visit to El Palmar.
