Everything you may want to know before your first conversation with us.
FAQ
Planning
How far in advance should we plan?
Ideally three to six months ahead, and earlier for the Fallas in March or for the grape harvest in September and October. Shorter notice is often possible outside those dates; ask us.
How long should we stay in Valencia?
Four days is the length we recommend most for a first visit: one day in the city and three days that each leave it in a different direction. Three days works for a long weekend; five days let you add a day on the Costa Blanca or simply a slower pace.
When is the best time to visit?
October to early December and late February to May. The weather is mild and bright, the city is calm and the region’s kitchens and cellars have time for you. Summer is hot and busy.
Can you plan a journey around a celebration?
Yes — honeymoons, anniversaries, milestone birthdays and family reunions. Tell us what you are celebrating and we will design the moments around it.
FAQ
Our journeys
Are your journeys private?
Always. Your guide, driver, boat and table are yours alone. We do not run group tours.
Can we book a single experience?
Our experiences are designed as part of a private journey, so that the hotel, driver, timing and tables work together. If you only have a day or two, we will build a short journey around the experience you have in mind.
Do your journeys suit families?
Yes. We adapt the pace, the tables and the experiences to the ages of your children — a private paella class, a boat on the Albufera or the City of Arts and Sciences tend to be favorites.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Yes. Tell us about allergies, intolerances or preferences when you enquire and we will brief every kitchen in advance.
FAQ
Practicalities
Are flights included?
No. We design everything from the moment you land. Valencia airport is a short drive from the city, and the high-speed train from Madrid takes around two hours.
How much does a private journey cost?
It depends on the season, the hotel, the length and the number of travelers. Each journey page shows a guide price, and your proposal gives an exact price per person. As a guide, our journeys start from around €2,900 per person for three nights.
How do we pay?
Nothing is paid on this website. Payment terms are set out in your proposal. As a guide, a 30% deposit confirms the journey and the balance is due 60 days before arrival.
How will you contact us after we enquire?
Your travel designer replies personally by email, usually within 24 hours. If you prefer a call or WhatsApp, tell us in the form and we will arrange it at a time that suits your time zone.
What happens if something goes wrong during our stay?
Your travel designer and our team are a message away throughout your stay and will solve it with you.
