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 experience
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.
I just had a little time gap, so this 90 minute tour was perfect. Maria showed me the most important historical sights, gave an overview about the City today and was really charming. I would do anytime again with her.
Thank you so much for a wonderful tour around Valencia! The food and drink were a spectacular way to experience the city and Valentín was the perfect host. Fully recommend!
