Description
Escape the city and discover the peaceful landscapes of the Albufera Natural Park on this express 3-hour experience from Valencia. Just a short drive from the city, you’ll discover one of Spain’s most important wetlands and the landscape where Valencian paella was born. Travel with a local guide to the shores of the Albufera, stop at the Gola de Puchol for photos and enjoy a relaxing boat ride through the lagoon. As you explore, your guide will share stories about the unique ecosystem, local traditions and the rice-growing culture that has shaped life around the Albufera for centuries. This express tour is ideal if you want to experience the Albufera without spending a full day away from Valencia. You’ll enjoy the essential highlights in a short and easy-to-fit experience, including a boat ride and a drink. After the boat ride, relax on the journey back to Valencia and enjoy the rest of your day with plenty of time left to explore the city.
