Our guide was Marcos and he was one of the best tour guides we've had. We were travelling with our three young kids and Marcos did a brilliant job of tailoring the narrative to ensure they were always engaged and interested. He also incorporated a number of unplanned detours to get the kids ice cream!!
It was our first time in Valencia so the itinerary curated by Marcos was bang-on the money. I was actually surprised with the range of sites we were able to cover in 2 hours. One of the subtle highlights was walking through the back-lanes rather than on the main streets all of the time. It gives a greater sense of the Old Town, it's history but also the way of life now.
Great job Marcos and thanks very much.Well Organised and Great Value

Marcos was an excellent tour guide. Thanks to him we were able to explore the city a bit more with our two sons (5 years old and a 7 month old) without having to worry about how to entertain our eldest while still enjoying ourselves and learning about Valencia and it’s rich history. Definitely recommended!Excellent tour for families

Marcos was a great guide! He was wonderful at navigating the needs & interests of me and my wife, my mother in law who is very into Jewish history, and our two kids (8 & 6). He totally engaged the kids by getting on their level (physically) and responded quickly when we needed the many bathroom breaks (small bladders...). When we go back to Valencia, he's our first call!SO GOOD! Great with our kids!

Marcos was a wonderful guide. He is knowledgable, friendly and warm. We were traveling with an 8 and 6 year old and he made sure the tour was aimed at them, their understanding and their level of energy. And as adults, we also very much enjoyed it and learned so much. Thank you Marcos for a great adventure.Great guide; great experieince

We had a great tour with Marcos who took us through Valencia. Interactive and informative so both we as parents and our 8-year old son loved walking through the city for over two hours. Never a dull moment and full of ninja-surprises! Definately worth it! And Marcos, if you are reading this: Milan found more 😀Great, personalised, tour

Mike did a great job in creating a tour adapted to the interests of the whole family and managed to keep our two kids focussed on the various details of the streets, buildings and history of Valencia. This was all the more challenging as we already had gone on a tour of the city a few days before. We never felt hearing it all over again. It was all adding up to our great stay in Valencia.Tour for juvenile minds

Touring Valencia with Esther was a wonderful experience for my 10 y/old son and me! We had such a great time with her showing us her city and telling us stories about its past (beware of bats! 😊) and its present (the way we looked at graffiti all around changed completely into a game, after hanging around with her! Thanks for the hints!). We had the best mandarina ever and tasted the real Valencian merenda. Thanks so much for your enthusiasm and for your patience, Esther, we never forget this experience!Great time with Esther!

Our group of 13 people split into 3 groups with 3 different “With Locals” guides. Mike was by far the best! He’s a teacher by profession, and it really showed in the way he was able to get the kids involved, keep their attention, and explain interesting things using stories and humor. We really enjoyed our time with Mike!Excellent with kids and funny!

We did the family tour with Marco. He was the perfect guide. There was 3 children in our group, 10, 8 and 1 and they all loved it and were entertained from finish to end. Even though it was in the high 30s Marco made the tour very comfortable finding shady spots and going at a nice pace. He was very knowledgable but interesting and his passion shone through. We can’t wait to return and do another tour.Could not have been any better

He showed us many wonderful sights and made the tour engaging and enjoyable. We learned so much and truly appreciated his insights. Overall, it was a fantastic way to explore Valencia, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking to discover the city in depth!Valencia at its best!

Too many our guides simply just tell you facts, such as the date of this building and the name of that building etc.; facts that one forgets within a few hours after the tour. Mimoza instead tells you what Valencia is about, tells you interesting stories about Valencia and explains the background about what you are viewing; stories that linger in the memory. And she is such a delightful and entertaining person. First rate. Amazing tour guide

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

The tour with Marcos was a highlight of València. We really enjoyed how engaging and knowledgeable Marcos was, the three hours flew by and we learned so much about the city. It really gave us a greater appreciation for the city. You can’t appreciate how nice it is to have a small group tour tailored for your questions and interests until you do it. Our only regret is that we did it on our last night of our trip because Marcos had many great local recommendations for places to eat and visit.Awesome tour

We did the Culinary Kickstart Tour with Mimoza and it was truly a magical experience beyond just a city tour. We not only leaned some fun facts about the city, enjoyed culinary highlights but also took away some memorable wisdoms about life itself. We really enjoyed the vibe during the tour and would fully recommend to people who like to embrace experienced beyond the ordinary.
Thank you so much Mimoza for being an unforgettable gem to our Valencia trip 💛Magical day with Mimoza ✨

What a fantastic 3.5 hours.
A superb teacher who brought the old and the new of Valencia to life. A history lesson, recommendations on where to go by ourselves and Spanish lessons for my daughter as we toured the highlights of this beautiful city.
I felt very sorry for the packed generic tours .. whilst we had a totally bespoke tour catering to exactly what we wanted to learn, taste in the market and plan for other days.
We regularly use guides whenever we visit cities .. but Marcos stands out! Amazing afternoon .. thank you so much. No better guide .. Marcos is amazing!

We hebben gisteren een geweldige rondleiding gehad van Marcos. Omdat we eerder in Valencia zijn geweest en hier wat langer verblijven hadden we de wens om weg te blijven van de highlights van Valencia, maar juist de wat meer verborgen juweeltjes te zien. Het werd een zeer bijzondere en informatieve wandeling naar plekken die we anders zeker niet hadden ontdekt. Met veel interessante verhalen over de stad. En naderhand nog vele goede tips opgestuurd gekregen. Kortom: Marcos is top!!Een geweldige rondleiding!

We had a tour of Valencia with Mimoza today. With the Fallas Festival going on I’m sure that it made things difficult for Mimoza. But I have to say that she put on a fantastic tour. My wife and I both loved seeing Valence with Mimoza. We learned so much about the history and culture of Valencia that we didn’t know and that we wouldn’t have learned except from someone who lives here.
If you are coming to Valencia and want to see some of the city with someone who is warm and friendly see the city with Mimoza. Amazing tour!!!

Maria was super knowledgeable about the history of Valencia with laminates to back up her information in pictorial fashion.

Her knowledge of architecture was encyclopaedic. Friendly and very knowledgable

I have been to Valencia many times for work, but Mimoza shared another side of the city that we have never seen. We really enjoyed learning about a more magical aspect of the city, with a greater understanding of the history and how it has influenced the people of Valencia. Mimoza is a great guide and we enjoyed every minute of our tour.
