2022-11-03 at 21:57Greetings! We are interested in the Sagunto walking tour with an emphasis on the Jewish history. We will be a party of five including 3 adults (the eldest is 80 years), one teenager, and one 11-year old. The 80-year old walks without assistance, but I would like to know how strenuous the tour would be for her. For example, to reach the castle do we walk up the hill? Is it difficult? If so, is there the possibility to drive up in our own vehicle if needed? Also, do you have any availability for Saturday 26 NOV? My daughter has Ballet all morning until 11:30 am, so we would prefer an afternoon tour (ideally after lunch). How long does the tour last? Thank you! Amy
