Between history and nature: perfect tour with Monika - Exceptional tour! Our guide Monika introduced us to the soul of Valencia, starting from the Arab origins of the Albufera and the importance of rice cultivation. It was fascinating to visit the interior of a Barraca, the typical fishermen's house: a real dive into local history. The tour then continued with a beautiful walk on the park's wild beach and a relaxing boat ride on the lake. Monika is extremely knowledgeable and makes every detail interesting. Highly recommended for those looking for an authentic experience!

Sunset excursion not to be missed - Experience to do if you visit Valencia. The organization was great and the guide, Alessandro, as well as prepared, nice and helpful gave us a lot of skills and extra info about the city of Valencia and how to live it. The boat trip was preceded by a couple of stops that allowed us to know and better understand the Albufera and everything that revolves around it; the sunset from the boat in the middle of the lagoon was the icing on the cake. Absolutely to do!

Tour to the Albufera - Evening tour to the Albufera Fantastic guided tour to the Albufera nature reserve with our super guide Jorge. We started the tour starting from Valencia with the minibus heading towards the Pujol Gorge. During the trip Jorge made ina beautiful overview of Valencia's history. We visited the Pujol Gorge with sighting of several protected birds. There was a chance to visit a barraca, a typical period house used by rice farmers. The day ended with a ride in the gate overlooking the sunset. Not to be missed! Our guide Jorge and 'was fantastic with detailed and in-depth explanations Thank you Jorge!

Worth a visit - pick-up was on time. At the first stop is wasn’t made clear when we got off the bus that we would be there for a while. If we had known we would have taken our coats. Ground was uneven in places so comfortable shoes needed & if you’re bitten easily take mosquito spray! Unfortunate we weren’t taken to ‘Visit a traditional Valencian “barraca”: the iconic thatched house of the Albufera region’ as advertised! This trip would have been easily done without a guide
