This was the perfect way to start my visit to Valencia! Maria was such a lovely, knowledgeable guide. She clearly knows and loves the city well, and I really enjoyed hearing some of the history and the different kinds of architecture. Not to mention, all of the spots Maria chose for food were fabulous! Great variety of local places and stands at the central market. Cannot recommend this tour with Maria highly enough! Do it!! Maria is wonderful!

We spent several wonderful relaxing hours wandering around the Old City of Valencia trying some great local specialities recommended by Valentin. Mix in alittle bit of history, the passion of a local for his food culture and some great restaurant reccomendations to try after the tour then you have pretty much the perfect experience. Thank you so much!Wonderful Relaxing Tour

We booked Maria for a private tour. Although our time together was short, Maria made every minute count, guiding us through Valecia’s rich history and architecture with infectious passion. It wasn’t just informative—it was joyful. There’s a twinkle in her eyes when she’s guiding that tells you this is more than a job for her - it’s her passion. If you're looking for someone who goes beyond the brochure, who’ll make your trip feel personal, magical, and full of heart—book Maria. A perfect day

We were a group of 20 people and everyone was very complementary about the wonderful walking tour we had with Maria, she was super well informed and shared her knowledge in a very pleasant manner. She keep it interesting and factual. She also made it fun and, although I've been to Valencia before, Maria showed us many new things and details we would have missed. I can highly recommend her for a wonderful experience. A wonderful experience with Maria

Maria was very flexible after I booked the wrong tour initially. My wife and I toured around the Canyamelar - Cabanyal districts for 2 and a half hours. Although we know something of the area, having visited several times before, we were introduced to lots of new aspects of the area, from historical details to architectural examples, street art, museums and restaurants. Thank you for a wonderful tour Maria ! This tour was very suitable for wheelchair users.A fun and interesting tour with Maria

Maria is amazing, we were 4, different age and interests, but she was able to read into this and adjust every minute of our visit. She was very well prepared, on just on history, but also on local places, drinks, food and culture. She helped us to book restaurants and places and she was always listening to our vibes in the moment (tired, interested, questioning etc...). Really perfect experiencePerfect guide :-) Love for Valencia

Valentín was a very pleasant guide who was generous with his time, and made sure we tasted many Valencian specialities, visiting the central market for fresh produce and then a wine bar for tapas, and finishing in a cocktail bar to try Agua de Valencia - delicious! He also answered our questions about the architecture and demographics of the city, and gave a couple recommendations. We didn’t see as much of the city centre as perhaps we had expected, but it was an enjoyable morning despite that. Thanks Valentín! You won’t go hungry!

While our guide was very nice and I think his intentions are great, as new visitors to Valencia we didn't feel this tour added what it was supposed to for a food tour for the money. We have done food tours in other cities and the advantages are usually the guides of knowing people and places as to expedite ordering and multiple local dishes- we didn't get exposed to many expected favorites like potato bravas, local ham, paella or even anything in the Central Market which felt strange because he kept saying everything was unusually busy. We also didn't learn many traditions unless we asked. Just felt awkward.

Valentin was fine. He knew his way around the city, the interesting sites to see, and so forth. That probably isn’t surprising, since he is a city guide! He was perfectly pleasant and we enjoyed the tour, but I’m sorry to say that he and tour were on the flat, without any spark of interest from him. The poor man had probably done the tour dozens and dozens of times. Unfortunately, that showed. With other tour guides, and we’ve been lucky enough to have had many over the years, there’s usually a better engagement and more warmth. That said, his communications were good and it was easy to meet him.An OK tour

Maria was a great guide for València. She was extremely knowledgeable about the architecture styles of the city and her passion for this came through in the tour. She took us to spots we would not have found on our own. We really enjoyed the tour with Maria and would look her up if we return.

Maria was super knowledgeable about the history of Valencia with laminates to back up her information in pictorial fashion. The best part of the tour was diving into multiple buildings that we thought were private or at the very least charged for entrance! Her knowledge of architecture was encyclopaedic. Friendly and very knowledgable

His English is very good which made life very easy for me. I had a great 3 hours in his company and would thoroughly recommend booking him.El Cabanyal tour

Maria is a knowledgeable and friendly guide. We learned a lot about the artists and specific images we had been walking by all week. There is so much graffiti and paintings in Valencia. Choosing what to view and discuss is a challenge. We became more observant after the tour. We would like to know more about the relationships between those who paint images and those who paint script and initials only. Also, we also want to know more about those who choose own walls to paint and those who are paid by property owners to paint on their gates and walls. Great context for art we see

With only two days in Valencia we wanted a family friendly tour to show us some of the key and hidden sights of the area. Maria was wonderful with the kids and showed us alot of sights in the city that we wouldn't have otherwise stumbled across. We learned about some of Valencia's traditions, explored a historic bakery, and learned about the street art amongst other interesting topics. She was great with our girls as well who where 5 and 7. Thanks Maria! Wonderful introduction to Valencia!

We did two tours with Maria: a general guide around the centre of Valencia taking in (amongst others): Central Market; Silk Exchange; the palace housing the ceramics museum as well as a number of churches. The second, foodie tour focussed mainly around the narrow streets of the northern central part of the city (Barrio del Carmen) taking in on the way the Cathedral and Basilica, Parroquia de San Nicolas and Torres de Serranos. We thoroughly enjoyed Maria’s description of the buildings as well as some of the city’s history. We had three food stops taking in, amongst others, a small former pharmacy turned into a barInsightful tour, lovely lady
