Two beautiful places in Spain - off the beaten track

Peñíscola and Morella are two beautiful and interesting places. The castle and Palace of Pope Luna in Peñíscola are interesting and beautiful to explore. Morella is a beautiful town with many interesting tings to see, including a castle on a huge hill and an ornate cathedral. Luis was an excellent guide. He is very knowledgeable. I am only annoyed with Viator because we had to pay the entrance fees to all of the places we visited and on your website, it says that entrance fees are included. Since we paid more than $1000., I don't think we should have had to pay the entrance fees.
Great tour!

It was a really great experience. Both towns are beautiful, with amazing views and lots of history to explore. Having a private guide made the day easy and stress-free, and we learned a lot along the way. The timing was well planned, so we never felt rushed. It’s a perfect trip if you want to see more of the region in one day.
Incredible day with our guide Luis

The castle in Morella and the old town of Peñíscola were especially impressive and worth the visit. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to discover charming places near Valencia.

Everything was well organized, the pace was relaxed, and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. If you’re in Valencia and want to explore beyond the city, I highly recommend this tour.

It was extremely interesting to see these ancient castles up close and to explore them. The view from the castle overlooking the village, the sea and the surroundings were unlike any other place i've seen before. Thanks to the guide we were able to not only discover so many fascinating places but also learn about all of their history and about the local culture. It was a really great tour and I would highly recommend it!
A day for Morella and Peñíscola

I didn't go on a private day trip to Morella and Peñíscola; I spent a day in each of these cities, and I must admit that both exceeded my expectations. Morella is beautiful and you should visit everything the tourist office recommends. In Peñíscola, I took a guided tour of the castle and then had dinner at a restaurant that seemed to be right on the sea, right in the old town. I recommend visiting each of the cities for a full day, there is so much to see.
