Valencia, Spain

Valencia City Tour

Encounter Historic Landmarks and Modern Architecture Discover more than two millennia of history during a guided exploration of Valencia’s major sights. First founded by the Romans in 138 BC, the city now boasts an impressive collection of historic buildings. Begin with a panoramic drive, passing the Old River and Serrano Gate, before heading out to the more modern parts of Valencia to see the City of Arts & Sciences. Enjoy a stroll to the cathedral at Plaza de la Virgen, commonly known as the “Seu.” It was consecrated in 1238 by the first bishop of Valencia, Pere d’Albalat, and dedicated to Saint Mary by order of James I the Conqueror.  After a visit of its interior, embark on a guided exploration of the surrounding area, including the Generalitat Palace. View its late Gothic architecture and the Renaissance-style turrets added during the 16th and 20th centuries, before returning to your awaiting ship. Please note: the cathedral is closed on Sundays and guests will view its exterior only. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
