We chose Maria because of reviews posted by travellers who have already met her and we were not disappointed. I made a mistake about when our tour was due to start and Maria graciously rearranged so that we could meet her later on the same day. The places that Maria took my husband and I for food were welcoming and the food was delicious, my favourite was the restaurant Tasca Angel. The best sardines I’ve ever tasted! Best of all is Maria’s personality. She is super friendly and we both found her easy to talk to. She gave us lots of information about the culture and cultural hot spots around the centre of Valencia. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Maria. You put the icing on the cake of our anniversary celebrations.

Wir haben eine Rundgangsführung mit Maria gebucht. Diese fühlte sich an wie ein angenehmer Spaziergang mit einer alten Freundin. Maria hat eine ganz offene warme Art die einen direkt für sich gewinnt. Sie hat es geschafft in einem auf uns angestimmten Tempo (einer von uns ist nicht gut zu Fuß) nicht nur die wichtigsten Merkmale der Stadt zu zeigen sondern auch die Ecken, die man selber als Tourist nie findet. Wir haben auch Neues zur Ess- und Trinkkultur gelernt und sogar das lokale Erfrischungsgetränk Horchata gekostet. Es war eine sehr gelungene Tour, dank Maria.

Maria is definitely the guide to be chosen for a food tour in Valencia. Her background knowledge about history and architecture knocked me off. And beside that her excellent choose of places to go to her pick of tapas and wines were pitch perfect. No rush throughout the evening with a relaxing woman with English on a native speaking quality. Thanks again and this tour I’ll surely recommend for my friends and family.

In April 2023, we joined Maria for a lovely walking tour of Valencia’s Ciutat Vella (Old Town). Having lived in Valencia ourselves in 2017, we were surprised at how much information about this beautiful city María imparted that we didn’t know. If you’re looking for a deep dive into the history of Valencia and insight into how Valencianos live out their daily lives, you can do no better than to choose a long time resident of Valencia like Maria

Excellent tour with Maria. She brought passion, years of knowledge and great conversation to our tour. Food selections were plentiful and highlighted Valencian nuances of Spanish cookery.
