Guides such as Martha, Mimi and Ellie have led the walk, which ends with a full tapas meal, paella, dessert and regional wines in a historic Old Town venue.

“Myself and the other 8 people in my group loved this experience! Martha taught us a lot about the city, which we needed since we were only there a short time. Walking tour was just the right amount of time and really interesting. The tour ended in a stunning private location, with amazing tapas (very good at catering for dietary restrictions) and amazing wines! Most of us purchased the same wines we tried, after the tour. Honestly could not thank Martha enough for hosting this amazing experience and if we ever visit Valencia again we’ll be sure to do this tour again! Definitely got our money’s worth and we even…”

Her passion for the city’s history and culture made every stop engaging and memorable. We ended the tour with delicious tapas and paella, paired with tantalizing Spanish wines that complemented the meal beautifully. It was the perfect finale to an already fantastic experience. We would highly recommend this tour — and especially Mimi — to anyone visiting Valencia!”

At this three-hour Valencia cooking class, chef José welcomes a group of no more than four into his home kitchen. Make or watch as sangria, tapas, and Valencian paella come together, learn about the region’s rice traditions, then finish with horchata mousse and a recipe collection to take home.

We got tips, shared stories, and had a delicious meal! We have participated in cooking lessons on other trips and this one was the most authentic and personal and we loook forward to recreating our Valencian paella at home!”
