Why choose this Valencia tour ?
Mediterranean cuisine is full of delicacies. Undoubtedly, the maximum exponent of this tradition is rice and our most worldwide known dish: paella. But also sweets, stews with fish and, of course, Valencian tapas (patatas bravas, titaina, clotxines, cocas, esgarraets, aspencat,…) are very simple and autochthonous dishes that are not so well known outside the area, but that are part of what is already a social ritual of the Valencians: the aperitif (drink)/appetizer (food).
This tour will be a unique experience for several reasons: the choice of tapas you will taste, the legendary restaurants you will visit, the cooking tips I will share and the rich history of the city I will blend with the food stories.

What makes Genuine Valencian tapas tour with a pinch of History a unique experience ?
This is our meeting point and first landmark we will visit. It´s one of the most beautiful train stations in Spain built in modernist architecture.
We´ll head to the first restaurant (close by the station) where I´ll tell you about the origin and meaning of tapas. I´ll share recipes and cooking tips. There´s a big surprise awaiting you regarding a rooted local sport.
We´ll taste 2 “tapas” (snacks) and a local drink, that can be a soft drink, beer or glass of wine
On our way to the second restaurant, we´ll stop at the spectacular Town Hall Square, where I´ll talk about some aspects of the rich history of Valencia (19th-20th century period).
Our next stop will be at the iconic Silk Exchange Market, declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO. I´ll talk about the splendour of the city during the 14th-17th centuries and its importance in Europe.
The Central Market is a gem, one of the best examples of Modernism in Valencia, and a wonder for the senses. I´ll share some recommendations for tasting “paella valenciana” and other local delicacies.
Santos Juanes Church is the second most important Baroque church after Saint Nicholas Church, known as the Valencian Sixtine Chapel. Both are linked and I will tell visitors about it
We´ll taste 1 or 2 more tapas (depending on the number of participants) and one drink (soft drink, beer or wine) in one of the most legendary bars located in the heart of the Arab quarter, Barrio del Carmen.
