Jardi del Turia
Our tour starts on Pont dels Serrans in Turia Gardens. You'll hear some of the early history of Valencia while you walk.
Pass by without stopping
The history of Valencia is a story about the relationship between a city and its river. Its first Roman settlement was built on an island in the Turia River in 138 BC. The settlement grew, influenced by the river until 1957 when, after a catastrophic flood, it was decided that the torrent should be diverted. On this walking tour, you’ll wade through 2,000 years of history that developed alongside the river.

Fun and interesting self paced tour.
Fun and interesting way to explore Valencia at our own pace. We liked being able to pause the tour to do some shopping or grab something to eat then continue on our way.

Great idea, works poorly
Audio did not follow the stops very well. Hard to find what the “guide” was talking about. Cell service was very bad in old town which didn’t help. We gave up and just walked around. I wouldn’t do it again.
Response from the operator: Hi there, I'm sorry that you were unhappy with your experience. When you were having technical difficulties, did you contact VoiceMap support via email or telephone? We are contactable by both telephone and email, so if you have technical difficulties, please reach out to us so we can identify what is going wrong. Again, I'm sorry about the poor experience you had.

Entertaining Valencia Walking Tour
The speaker was very good and added humor to his dialog which made it entertaining. GPS did take a while to catch up so got lost a few times.

Fantastic way to see the city.
Really excellent way to see the city. Self-paced and very informative. Gives you an excellent insight into the many layers of history in the city and the tech worked really well for us, very easy to follow.

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Valencia.
How much does Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia cost?
+
Prices start at $15 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Valencia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia take?
+
Plan for about 1.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Valencia is not rushed.
Is Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Valencia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Valencia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Valencia and add a light layer if any part of the 1.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Between Two Gates: A Self-Guided Audio Tour in Valencia start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Valencia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Valencia?
+
On Outty we rank every Valencia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Valencia Bike Tour from the City to the Beach, plus Bike Guy App!, Paella Cooking Class, Wine Tasting & Central Market in Valencia, Real Paella Cooking Class – Market Visit & Sangría Workshop. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Valencia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Valencia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
