A beautiful day in Valencia

This excursion was over and above what we expected! We had a fabulous tour of the old city and walked around the Arts and Sciences area. You could be so lucky as to have Daniel as your tour guide! He was super knowledgeable and gave us some great travel tips too. The most surprising part was the wine and tapas! What a delight! Their post does not do this part justice. A beautiful day in Valencia!

My group had Dani as our guide and he went above and beyond to accommodate my group of friends. He was knowledgeable, energetic and funny! The experience was amazing and I wouldn’t have seen Valencia the same way. We hope Dani comes to the states some day so we can show him the same experience!

Our tour guide, Mimi, was terrific! The itinerary was perfect for us. The architecture in the arts and sciences center was amazing. Then we went to old town and saw the Roman fountain and the cathedral. This was followed by a walk to an indoor space with two tables and a courtyard that was adjacent to an old city wall. They are we head about 10 courses of tapas along with five wines. And I recommend this tour for any adults.

This tour is one not to be missed. Eduardo does an amazing job to take good care of his clients. He made sure to cover all important areas of the old Town as well as the Arts and Science Area. The best treat was at the end. Amazing views and plenty of wine and tapas. Amazing! To rate him I give him a 10. Don’t miss this tour. If I could have taken him with us to Seville, I would have .

We met our guide Laura at the terminal and took cabs into the city. There were 6 in our group. She was very knowledgeable about everything. We walked around for about a half hour as she told us what we were seeing. We then took cabs to the Arts and Science center and walked around while Laura told us all about the place. It was beautiful but we didn’t go through the museum so when they say tickets are included, there were no tickets. We then walked a short distance to the tallest building in Valencia and had tapas with 4 different wine tastings. We met another group there and between 12 of us went through 12 bottles of wine and we had so much delicious food that I was still full at dinner time. This was a great tour and I highly recommend it.

The best tour ever

As a couple we have taken many tours but this tour was the best. We actually took the wrong bus from the cruise ship but they had no problem meeting up with us. Amazing service. The tour was just 6 people and low key, they took their time explained all the sites and then took us back to their office for a roodtop wine tasting and tapas dinner. Great food, wine, amazing service and a view from their 33 floor office. Don't miss this tour. We loved it.

Best Tour in Valencia, Spain

This was the best part of our 2019 vacation in Europe; we spent the day with Lara as she took us through old town Valencia, where we saw the beautiful farmers market and unique wall art. One image which I will not post because you must see it for yourself. But, the artist created a black and white image, after you take a picture of it, invert the colors and you will see pure art. We then hopped into an excellent air conditioning car and drove over to the City of Arts and Science, which is out of this world. The structures in this part of town are one of a kind. Another must-see when you visit this beautiful city. After our walk, we headed up to the tallest building in town where we had an outstanding lunch paired with great tasing wine. We want to thank Lara and the rest of the folks at Sea Saffron, they made our trip, and we are looking forward to coming back to Valencia, Spain!

FAR more wonderful than the humble description
Stephanie_S

This tour was one of the highlights of our Mediterranean cruise. Our guide, Nacho was so genuine and down to earth. The Mercado Central was a spectacular sight to behold. If you are even sort of a foodie this place is like being a kid in a candy store. The sheer variety of produce, meats and seafood is staggering. And you can buy samplings of iberico ham to snack on (drool). If that’s not your bag they also have fresh Valencian orange juice and horchata to drink! The city of arts and sciences is quite spectacular to see as well, and the highest point (literally and figuratively) of this tour was the absolute tapas FEAST that is served to you in the rooftop penthouse of an apartment across the street from the City of Arts and Sciences. The wine was delicious and ample, and the food...oh my god the food. I have eaten in many high end restaurants and this food blew me away. The perfect balance between rustic and elegant. All with the beautiful sky from the penthouse balcony in front of you. Do yourself a favor and book this tour. The value far exceeds the price!!

Walking tour with Sea Saffron, Amazing!

Where do I begin. It was all great. We were met by our guide Nick as we disembarked from our ship. Very personable young man. Escorted to our car and off we went, it was just my husband and I that morning. We started with a walk in the old town and the market. So much to see and wonderful history, the time flew by quickly. We were then taken to the arts and sciences centre which is blow mind. Not just in contrast to what we had seen but also in ambience. The tour ended as we went to a roof top apartment and were treated by Alejandro the chef and Nick to what seemed like an endless taste of Spanish cuisine tapas style. What an AMAZING way to spend a day! We have traveled and done many tours. This is one of the top. Make sure it is with Sea Saffron.

This is a very personal and in depth tour. Will far exceed your expectations. We were a group of six and explored the old city, Market, and City of Art and Science; Then had an amazing Tapas & Wine feast prepared with fresh produce and area wines. the views from the penthouse space left us speechless. One feels like a guest experiencing Valencia rather than a tourist....... Lara was our wonderful Guide and Nick the fabulous chef. You will really feel you have had a very personal five star experience. Simply one of the best tours my husband and i have had in our travels!!!!

I joined Eduardo Aguilar for a very informative tour of the market and Valencia's Old Town. We then joined guide Marina and two other guests to tour the spectacular City of Arts and Sciences. The tour was concluded by wine and tapas tasting in Christina's , a gourmet chef, private flat with spectacular views of Valencia. If you are enamored with history, modern architecture and ethnic food, you can't book a better excursion in Valencia.

This was the first tour and the highlight of a Western Mediterranean cruise. Our other tours were provided by the ship and ranged from awful to satisfactory. Eduardo Aguilar was our guide and we could not imagine a more charming young man with such a wealth of knowledge. The highlight was the tapas, wine and lunch with Christina overlooking the new City of Arts and Sciences. Everything worked perfectly from the pickup at the cruise terminal to the drop-off. I have lived in Sevilla and Madrid for 5 years and Eduardo convinced me I would enjoy living in Valencia in four hours. I will definitely check for Viators at my next destination!

This was the unexpected highlight of our ten day cruise! Our tour guide for the morning of our adventure was Isiah Parfait. Isiah was a delight and provided a very informative and nicely paced tour of the treasures of Valencia. Our afternoon could not have been better! Not only had the weather cooperated and provided a lovely sunny afternoon spent on a terrace if one of the high points of Valencia overlooking the futuristic sights of the museum, opera house et al. We were joined by two lovely couples and our wine expert and host of the afternoon Eduardo Aguilar. We spent a delightful afternoon enjoying tasty treats paired with fines wines. This was a wonderful experi nice and we thank our hosts for the day and for making it unforgettable!! THANK YOU!
