“A wonderful day exploring a beautiful and uninhabited region of Valencia with our family. Elena was a knowledgeable and kind host, even taking lovely photos of us to remember the occasion. She accommodated our boys so effortlessly and found the perfect restaurant with the most delicious paella. We will treasure the memories of this day forever.”
Travel from Valencia’s El Saler shopping centre to Albufera for a one-hour guided boat ride, bird watching, and a starter, paella, drink, coffee, and dessert. Guide Miguel explains the lake, rice fields, wildlife, and local traditions in English or Spanish. Sunset times change by month.
“Giro in barca molto bello. Guide simpatiche. Paella buona ma in centro l’abbiamo mangiata più buona, ma calcolando che in febbraio sono aperti solo due ristoranti sull’isola non ci possiamo lamentare .”
