A Perfect Day Trip from Valencia

5.00This was an excellent excursion and one of the highlights of our time in Spain. As cruise passengers, we had a limited schedule, and our guide went above and beyond to accommodate us. He thoughtfully rearranged the itinerary so that all of the guided portions of the tour took place at the beginning of the excursion, allowing us to leave early and return to our ship with plenty of time. His flexibility and consideration were greatly appreciated. The tour itself was comprehensive and engaging, providing an excellent overview of the historic castle and old town of Peñíscola. Fans of Game of Thrones will especially enjoy learning about the filming locations and seeing the settings that appeared in the series. Even for those unfamiliar with the show, the history and architecture of the castle are fascinating. Peñíscola is a charming coastal city with beautiful views, picturesque streets, and a relaxed atmosphere. It is well worth visiting in its own right. If you have already explored Valencia and are looking for something different, this tour offers a refreshing change of pace and a chance to experience one of Spain's most attractive historic seaside towns.
Wonderful day

5.00Very great tour from start to finish. We had a smaller group, it was so fun to learn about everyone else that joined us. Our guide was super knowledgeable on everything we passed by, pointed out many areas of interest on the way to and from our destination, and drove very well. It was definitely a full day but didn't feel overwhelming. We had many opportunities to explore and learn while having an excellent experience. Thank you!

5.00We had a wonderful trip to Peñíscola, the famous filming location from Game of Thrones. We made a stop for coffee and delicious fresh orange juice, which was excellent. The viewpoint was beautiful, and we enjoyed a tasty lunch at the restaurant. The journey was very comfortable and relaxing. Our guide took great care of us, shared fascinating stories about historical life in the castle, and gave us plenty of attention throughout the tour. The pick-up and drop-off locations were also very convenient. Highly recommended!

5.00What a phenomenal day and magical place to visit while in Valencia! Even if you are not a Game of Thrones fan, this location truly feels like you are in Santorini Greece but at a fraction of the price. We went during off season so it was not crowded, we got great photos, walked around comfortably, and enjoyed a quiet slow lunch with the best food. Our guide, Antonio (Toni) was fantastic! Our group thoroughly enjoyed his 'Tablet Time' getting to view the scenes from Season 6 of GOT on his iPad in the real life locations. We balanced the right amount of stops, history, and solo exploration time. If you have more than 3 days in Valencia, this is absolutely worth the day trip. You spend about 5 hours total in the old town and the drive is not bad. Make sure to wear good walking shoes and bring sun screen.
Toni was excellent!

5.00The day tour to Peniscola, Game of Thrones was provided by a company called Batwalking. Our tour guide Tony met us outside the Valencia Football Stadium and dove our group in a minibus to Peniscola. At Peniscola, as we walked through the town and castle, we stopped at various places where the Game of Thrones was filmed. Tony showed us the exact scenes from Game of Thrones on his laptop computer and we could easily recognise the locations. As well as discovering the locations of the filming, Tony told us the history of the town and castle as we walked through the beautiful narrow streets up to and into the impressive castle. After our tour of the castle, we had a lovely lunch in a restaurant in one of the medieval streets. After lunch we had some free time to explore the town and the beautiful gardens. This was a wonderful, informative and very interesting trip led by our friendly and knowledgeable guide Tony. We would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Valencia.
