Full Description
Valencia's historic centre by tuk tuk
The old town of Valencia is compact and full of monuments, which makes it ideal for a tuk tuk tour. Depending on the day's traffic and events, the route typically passes places such as the Plaza de la Virgen, the Gothic cathedral and its Miguelete bell tower, La Lonja de la Seda, a silk exchange listed by UNESCO, the iron-and-glass Central Market and the medieval Serranos and Quart towers.
Your guide explains the history behind each stop and points out where to come back on foot. If you are wondering what to see in Valencia in a short stay, this ride gives you the key landmarks quickly and without tiring your legs.
The City of Arts and Sciences
On the full two-hour tour you reach the City of Arts and Sciences, the futuristic complex designed mainly by Santiago Calatrava and Félix Candela on the former Turia riverbed. It includes the eye-shaped Hemisfèric, the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum, the Umbracle garden walk, the opera house and L'Oceanogràfic, a large aquarium.
Visitors often ask whether the City of Arts and Sciences is worth visiting; even from the outside, its white structures and turquoise pools make it one of the best photo spots in the city. Entry to the museums and aquarium is not included, so this stop is a view-and-photo moment that helps you decide whether to return for a full visit.
Valencia's coast and seafront
The two-hour option also reaches the Mediterranean side of the city. The seafront area usually includes views of the wide sandy beaches of Las Arenas and Malvarrosa, the harbour district and the modern Marina, which hosted major sailing events, together with glimpses of the tile-decorated houses of the old fishermen's quarter, El Cabanyal.
If you are asking how far the beach is from the centre of Valencia, this tour shows you in comfort, and it is a helpful way to choose where to spend a free afternoon. The one-hour historical option does not include the coast.
Choosing your Valencia tuk tuk tour and the best time to go
The one-hour ride is the right choice for a first look at the old town, while the two-hour tour is the most complete way to see the city in one outing. Valencia tuk tuk tour times run from morning until evening, and the booking panel lists the departures available for your date.
The best time to take a Valencia tuk tuk tour is morning or late afternoon in the warm months, when light is soft and the air is cooler; in winter, midday departures are pleasant and a blanket is provided. Because the ride is in the open air, dress for the weather.
