We were very very happy that we chose this tour and not the usual Valencia walking tour because they took us inside the cathedral and it was so worth it. The painting in the St Nicolas church and the story of Santa Claus was amazing, and seeing the holy grail was equally so surprising. Paulino was our guide, we chose an English tour and he was great. Highly recommend!

The tour was great, our guide was very informative and we discovered a huge amount about the history of the buildings, artwork and city in general. The places we visited were amazing, the detail of the carvings, paintings etc. it was definitely good value for money and we would recommend to anyone who is interested in art and history.
