I joined an evening tour with Andrés in my first day in the city and it was exceptional. From the moment I arrived (solo) he was incredibly warm and welcoming, made efforts to know everyone’s names and where they’re from as well as encouraging us all to learn and join in with Valenciano language and customs. I’m so impressed with how much information he shared as well as some wonderful personal touches. It helped me get a feel of the city in just two hours - would highly, highly recommend! #VoteForAndrés
