Marcos give us a wonderful tour that was engaging and interesting for our kids (and for us). But even beyond the tour, he truly went above and beyond to help us out. We were in Valencia during the very bad flooding and he was incredibly kind and helpful to help us navigate the situation. He went out of his way to keep us informed and make sure we were safe and we feel so lucky to have met him! I would recommend him a thousand times over to anyone needing a fantastic tour from someone who clearly loves Valencia.

Valencia with Danny
We decided to do a last minute visit to Valencia whilst on holiday. I contacted Danny through the “withlocals” site. He got back to me quickly and we agreed a meet. We had a great couple of hours! The tour of the history of the city was interesting without being too dry for the teenager. It was a brilliant way to explore the city on our short visit.
Danny was engaging, humorous and well informed, even adapting the route to encompass a stop for chocolate y churros as requested by the teenager! Overall a brilliant experience. I’d definitely recommend Danny to anyone visiting Valencia.

Well paced/fun tour for kids and adults
Danny was a very engaging host with a great sense of humor and a great connection with our kids. We had a blast walking around old town Valencia and hearing various stories. He was sure to check in with us to make sure the tour was suited to our abilities (walking and mental!) Both of our kids really enjoyed his stories and explanations (we did as well!) The whole experience felt very personal and engaging. Highly recommended!

The Treasure of our Valencia Trip
We booked with Marcos originally for a bike tour with our 3 and 1 year olds. From the beginning he was so accommodating and communicated often in preparation for our trip to make sure our itinerary was suitable for both us and our children. The night before our day together, the forecast showed 100% chance of rain but he insisted we wait to cancel and make new plans the day of if the rain came. Surely in the morning, the rain came but he had the idea of making it a walking tour instead because the sites were close. We were so thrilled that we got to see the city with Marcos still! Upon arrival, Marcos greeted us with open arms and loved talking and playing with our boys 💙 There wasn’t a single question he didn’t know the answer to—I have no idea how he knows everything he does! The tour was the highlight of our trip because we love Valencia and fell in love more after learning and seeing the city with Marcos. If you are looking for a stress free, fun, and welcoming day with a guide—Marcos is your man! We can’t thank you enough for the memories you gave us!
