Discover the Old Town of Valencia on a pleasant guided walk, focusing on the main highlights of this cosmopolitan city. A panoramic drive along the Turia River finishes in the Old Town, where you can admire the National Ceramics Museum.
Walk with your guide from the architecturally-impressive Central Market. Nearby is La Lonja, better known as the Old Silk Exchange, which dates back to 1482 and is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Stop at a well-known horchateria, a café that serves frosty horchata. Taste this sweet, non-alcoholic drink that is made from tiger nuts, water and sugar, and is served ice-cold.
In Virgen Square, you will see the Gothic façade of the cathedral and the basilica of Valencia's patroness. Walk past the Old Borgia Palace that today hosts the city's parliament.
Meet the coach back at the Serranos Towers -- the old northern gate in Valencia's medieval walls.
