Albufera tour

Get some fresh air

After a few days in the city, you may want to escape and get some fresh air! The best place to go is the Albufera Lake, just south of Valencia, surrounded by nature and rice fields. It is a protected nature reserve, where you can see many migratory birds.

We pick you up with an accessible van and then first head for the dunes and forest between the lake and the sea. While rolling through the forest, we tell you about the history of the lake and the rice.

If there is enough time, we pass by an information centre with a small alkaline lake and an observation area. This is the best place to see flamingos, we might be lucky!

From here it is a short drive to the village of El Palmar, right at the lake. After a cup of coffee, we go for a boat trip to see the lake and birds. There is always a breeze on the lake, so the boat trip is great when it is hot.

The Albufera rice is grown especially for the paella, and at the lake you can find the best paellas! What do we have for lunch..? Of course, we will take you to the best paella restaurant in the village. After lunch we go back to Valencia, in time for your siesta.

Every part of this tour is accessible: the van, the forest walk, the boat trip, the restaurant… so, nothing to worry about! Just enjoy and have fun!
