Uncover Valencia’s secrets on this walking tour through hidden alleys, towers & squares, plus two delicious tapas included in a local spot.
Discover the soul of Valencia as you stroll through its plazas, hidden alleys, and iconic landmarks. From the echoes of ancient civilizations to the medieval towers that still guard the city, this walking tour takes you across more than 10 must see stops that bring to life centuries of history, art, and Mediterranean spirit.

Begin at Plaza de la Virgen, once the ancient forum of the city, surrounded by the Cathedral, the Basilica of Our Lady of the Forsaken, and the Palau de la Generalitat. Every Thursday, it hosts the UNESCO-recognized Water Tribunal.

Head to Plaza de la Almoina, an underground museum where glass panels let you literally walk above Roman, Visigothic, Islamic, and Christian remains. Continue to Valencia Cathedral & Plaza de la Reina, built on layers of history: Roman temple → Visigothic church → mosque → cathedral. Home to the Holy Grail, believed by many to be the authentic chalice. Climb the Miguelete tower (207 steps) for breathtaking views. Plaza de la Reina is Valencia’s bustling city center, with Roman ruins beneath its surface.

Visit the San Juan del Hospital Church, the oldest Christian temple in Valencia. A rare blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles. Next, head to Plaza del Ayuntamiento, once home to a Franciscan convent. Today, it’s where the famous mascletàs fireworks roar during Fallas. Admire the grand City Hall, Central Post Office, and the Ateneo Mercantil.

Stop at Plaza Redonda, a perfectly circular square built in 1840. Once a meat and fish market, today a lively hub of artisan shops.

You will enjoy two tapas included while exploring Valencia’s hidden squares and towers. Drinks are not included but your guide will suggest local delights like orange wine.

Continue to the Central Market & Silk Exchange (La Lonja de la Seda), facing each other, two monuments to Valencia’s trading past. The Central Market (1928) is one of Europe’s largest fresh produce markets. La Lonja, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a Gothic masterpiece with a “stone palm grove” hall.

See the House of Cats, a whimsical piece of urban art dedicated to Valencia’s feline legends. It recalls the tale of the four cats that survived after the Cid’s conquest in 1094. Head to Plaza del Carmen, heart of the vibrant Carmen district, beside its church and the Palace of Pineda. Beneath lies a Civil War air-raid shelter. Features a statue of the painter Joan de Joanes.

End at Torres de Serranos, a monumental Gothic gate (1392–1398), once used as a prison for nobles. Protected Prado Museum masterpieces during the Spanish Civil War. Climb for panoramic views of Valencia and the Turia riverbed.
