Tour durch die Altstadt von Valencia mit Wein und Tapas im historischen Denkmal aus dem 11. Jahrhundert

Great tour, great food. Strongly suggest doing it on your first couple nights in Valencia to get a feel for places you want to see more of

This was a super experience. Walking around the area with Martha (who is just awesome!) was interesting and fun. And the wine and tapas were simply fabulous. We would definitely do this again....with Martha!

Where do I start? With our lovely guide, Emma, whose warmth and passion for the city pours out with every story she tells and every dish and glass of wine served that reflects the heritage of the region? With the history of the booming silk trade and the accompanying industry of female companionship for sailors that made a woman so beloved that they named the Barrio del Carmen after her? Or maybe the legends behind the three doors from Roman, Moorish, and Spanish periods of rule that grace the Cathedral of Valencia and tell the story of the city’s evolution (not to mention the oldest water court in the world that meets outside of one of those doors…can you guess which one?) Or perhaps mention the chalice inside that cathedral with residue dating back to the time of Christ, which the Catholic Church declared to be the Holy Grail from the last supper. But what about the rice farmers from the region that gave us paella (the real Valencian kind!) What of bats, and parrots, and other hotly debated winged creatures? And Aguas de Valencia - a drink so pleasing in its simplicity (Cava, gin, vodka, and Valencian orange juice) that it must owe its creation to, you guessed it, the sailors that surely enjoyed a glass or ten before taking back to the seas. Agh! It’s no use! There’s just too much! I cannot properly recount this gloriously enchanting, fascinating, and delectable evening on my own… I suppose you’ll just have to go and find out for yourself…..
