A Very Special Experience not to be Missed!

Published on Oct, 2024

This was such an amazing special experience. With her background as an architect, Tricia was a fantastic guide to the City of Arts and Sciences. For us, the hour and a half was the perfect amount of time to spend around the area. Then back to her gorgeous rooftop apartment for an 11 course tapas tasting including wine. The food was a lot of traditional tapas and all very delicious. Especially, the olive oil cake for dessert. Our tour had 8 people total and we enjoyed talking to the very diverse group. Tricia and Amanda are both so personable, friendly and easy to be around. This was truly a very special, unique tour that I would recommend to everyone visiting Valencia.

Exciting times at the Arts and Sciences

Published on Oct, 2024

I have done similar tours before. This was the best company and team handling the tour. Tricia is an architect and led us on the most informative walk of the arts and sciences buildings. She has researched the development and construction of this phenomenal park. She is a great listener and goes out of her way to connect with each person taking the tour. Amanda takes over when it is time to eat and Tricia was a super sommelier! Their set of indoor/outdoor living and dining was perfect. There were a dozen tapas—save room for the most delicious dessert. We were there during the full harvest moon and the rising over the Mediterranean was gorgeous. You will not find a better tour of this area.

Perfect day in Valencia

Published on Oct, 2024

Tricia, our wonderful guide, was a wealth of knowledge in respect of both the architect and the architecture of the City of Arts and Sciences. Afterwards, we were taken to a beautiful rooftop with a vista of the city where Amanda, the chef, treated us to several amazing and filling tapas. Of course wine was included. All in all a fantastic experience that the four of us would highly recommend.
