What does this guided tour of the city's old town consist of

In Valencia, Romans, Visigoths, Arabs, and Christians have passed through. They all saw something in a city with its own personality.

Today, more than 2,000 years after its foundation, that unique and authentic personality is reflected in the streets, monuments, stories, and atmosphere of the historic center, which the group will enjoy with an official guide.

Here is the itinerary for the guided tour:

The Serranos Towers are a perfect starting point and gateway to the old city. It is one of the best examples of Gothic military architecture in Europe.
The Palace of the Valencian Courts is the former residence of the Borja family and the current seat of the Valencian Courts.
The Plaza de la Virgen (Virgin Square) is the centerpiece of the old city, where the Forum of Roman Valencia was located.
The Basilica of the Virgen de los Desamparados is the sanctuary of the Virgen de los Desamparados. It was built in the 17th century in the Baroque style.
The Palace of the Generalitat is a late Gothic building with Renaissance interventions, currently the seat of the Valencian government.

The Cathedral of Valencia has a Gothic style with subsequent expansions. Highlights include the altarpiece of the main altar painted by Fernando Yánez de la Almedina, the disciple of Leonardo da Vinci, the Chapel of the Holy Chalice, and that of San Francisco de Borja, with paintings by Goya.
