Points of Interest of the Private Tour

This private walking tour of Valencia is planned to avoid the crowds and for you to explore at your leisure the historic center of the city, as well as the most important and representative monuments and buildings. 

We will start at the time you indicate and at the most convenient place for you. From there, we will start the guided tour through the following points of interest: 

Plaza de la Virgen 

In the heart of Valencia is the Plaza de la Virgen. According to historians, this is where the construction of the city began. 

Around it are located some of the most iconic buildings of the city, such as the Cathedral of Valencia, the Palace of the Generalitat and the Church of the Virgen de los Desamparados. 

In this square is celebrated a tradition that dates back more than a millennium: the Tribunal of the waters. In addition, every year the Plaza de la Virgen is the site of the well-known festival of Las Fallas, which has been recognized by UNESCO as a cultural heritage of humanity. 

The entire tour will be accompanied by a private guide, who will not leave out any information of interest about this majestic place. 

The Church of St. Nicholas of Bari 

The most striking feature of this church are the frescoes that adorn its ceilings, which were painted by the Valencia-born baroque artist Dionís Vidal. 

In addition, the building has a strong gothic influence that blends very well with baroque art. 

Its construction began by the Romans in 138 B.C., but the various conquests throughout history have inherited many Muslim and Catholic characteristics. 

On this tour you will admire this imposing construction up close, as it includes an exclusive entrance to the building. 

The Cathedral of Valencia, El Miguelete and the Holy Chalice

The Cathedral of Valencia is a must on this tour. The private guide will take you to the site where the Holy Chalice is located and you will also discover the bell tower “El Miguelete”. 

The cathedral also houses a large collection of works of art and various historical treasures of Christianity, which are worth admiring. 

In addition to this, our official guide will be available to take you to other points of interest, such as: 

  • Serranos Towers
  • La Lonja de la Seda or La Lonja de los Mercaderes (Silk Exchange or Merchants’ Exchange)
  • Santa Catalina

  • Caballeros Street
  • The Plaza Redonda and many more points. 

It will be 3 intense hours of great excitement for the history and incredible places of Valencia. Everything is designed to make sure you don’t miss a historic site in Valencia.
