Description of Tour

The Fallas take place every March in Valencia, with the main festivities from the 15th to the 19th. But already in late February you can experience a lot, for example the Crida, the opening spectacle or the exhibition of the so-called 'ninots'. These are the figures that then form the big Fallas monuments. Besides, there is a constant banging and fizzing on every street corner due to the many fireworks, there are special pastries and behind all this is Saint Joseph. Why this?!

We will be happy to explain this to you on a 4-hour city tour through the old town of Valencia. We combine - on request - the visit of the historical sights such as the cathedral and the city gate Torres de Serrano with a detailed explanation on the subject of Fallas:

  • How did this unique festival come about?
  • What do Valencians do during the Fallas?
  • Why all the fireworks and firecrackers?
  • What is the cost of the costume of a Fallera?
  • Who are the artists behind the Fallas monuments?
  • How can I become Fallera Mayor de Valencia? ... and so much more!

There is also the opportunity to enjoy the fireworks Mascleta (2pm at noon!) from a balcony. Unforgettable and without jostling!
