Description

What to see in Valencia in one day?

If you're looking for a unique cultural experience, you can't miss our art and architecture tour, where you'll discover the must-see monuments in Valencia. In approximately 3 hours, we will take you to discover the three architectural jewels of Valencian Gothic architecture that have marked the history of the city: La Lonja de la Seda, the Church of San Nicolás and the Cathedral.

This art and architecture tour of Valencia is much more than a guided tour. You will live an interactive experience that will allow you to get to know in depth the history, art and traditions of the city. Your accredited local guide will accompany you every step of the way, sharing with you his knowledge and passion for Valencian heritage.

Available times: from Tuesday to Sunday at various times, and the Monday morning (10.00 am), with a special itinerary that replaces the visit to the Church of San Nicolás with a visit to Valencia City Hall.

Itinerary

A tour through the heart of Valencia:

We start our journey at the Torres de Serranos to explore the most emblematic sites of Valencia, a jewel on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea that holds centuries of history. We'll take our first steps into the heart of the city, discovering the ancient walls that embraced Valencia over the years. We will go into the old town to unravel the architectural secrets that give life to this magical corner.

01. First stop: the Valencian Sistine Chapel

We begin our walk through Valencian Gothic architecture with the St. Nicholas Church. Known as the «Valencian Sistine Chapel».», The Gothic structure and the Baroque decoration of the 2000 m2 of frescoes painted by Dionís Vidal. A visual experience you won't forget! (On Mondays, this stop is replaced by a visit to Valencia City Hall, whose monumental façade and centuries of institutional history bear witness to the city’s political and social life.)

02. Second stop: the Lonja de la Seda (Silk Exchange)

We will continue our tour to the Lonja de la Seda, a Gothic building declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco, a Gothic masterpiece that will captivate you with its majestic architecture with elements typical of Valencian Gothic architecture such as the helicoidal columns and the ribbed vaults.

03. Third stop: the Cathedral of Santa Maria

We will arrive at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Valencia, where legend has it that one of the most sacred relics of Christianity is kept: the Holy Chalice. Is it true? Let's find out together!

04. Culminating in the Plaza de la Virgen

Our tour will end at the Plaza de la Virgen, the nerve centre of the city. There we will admire the Basilica de la Virgen María de los Desamparados, patron saint of Valencia, and learn about the Tribunal de las Aguas, the oldest continuously operating civil court in Europe.

This is the regular itinerary, however, it may be modified due to changes in the monuments' schedules or other situations of force majeure. In this case, we will let you know in advance.
