This walking tour focuses on Valencia's Old Town and its layered history visible in Roman, Moorish, Gothic, and Baroque architecture. The guide begins the tour on Calle Caballeros, explaining its historic significance. The group then passes by La Lonja de la Seda, where the guide describes the exterior of the former Silk Exchange building, a symbol of the city’s past silk trade. The tour continues with a visit to Mercat Central de Valencia, Europe’s largest food market, where the mix of historic and modern architecture is highlighted. After about ten minutes here, the route proceeds past the Iglesia de Santa Catalina, a civil Gothic church dating back to 1238. Participants walk through Plaza de la Reina and then spend five minutes at Plaza de la Virgen, where the guide points out the Cathedral of Valencia’s combination of Gothic, Romanesque, and Baroque styles. The final part of the tour lasts around two hours in the Barrio del Carmen neighborhood. Here, guests gain exclusive access to a historic Arab wall from the 11th century, linked to the reign of El Cid. In this significant monument, the group enjoys a full tapas tasting menu and paella paired with regional prizewinning wines. The tour lasts about four hours and includes dinner, alcoholic beverages, and a local guide.
