Just minutes from Valencia, explore Spain’s largest freshwater lagoon on a guided eco-friendly tour. Discover Albufera’s rice fields, wild birds, and the roots of paella with a certified local guide.

Stroll the Mediterranean dunes of El Saler, visit the Gola de Puchol where lake meets sea, and explore El Palmar, a quiet fishing village on an island in the lagoon. Glide across the calm waters on a traditional boat and spot native birds in their natural habitat.

Choose a sunset tour for breathtaking lake views, or a morning tour for a slower pace with a refreshing drink and fresh fruit included.

A cultural, scenic, and all-inclusive experience—perfect for couples and families or anyone seeking nature, beauty, and authenticity just outside the city.

We will send a WhatsApp message with all the collection details. Please put a correct phone number (if the phone number is invalid, we are not responsible), in case you don't have Whatsapp we will send an email through Viator.

Since we start the collections in Valencia until we return from the Albufera, it has an estimated duration of 4 hours.

We will not bathe on the beach or lake in this activity.

Throughout the year, we recommend that clients bring a jacket, sweater or sweatshirt for the boat ride, since at sunset it can get cold.

You can take your own food but you can't eat on the bus, you can only eat on the boat ride.

This activity does not have free time. Only 5 minutes to use the bathroom before taking the boat ride.

You have booked this experience: transportation from various pick-up points + excursion led by an official guide in the selected language + reservation management for the boat ride guaranteeing availability. (Bus + guide + management of reservations, so that you only worry about having a good time!)

The return transportation is included. With the same pick-up stops.

If you make the check out of your hotel you can take your luggage, as long as it is a cabin suitcase or a small backpack. You must notify us to guarantee space.

If you go at the afternoon: the schedule is approximated, we go to the best time to see the sunset from the lake (could change your pick up time 5 or 10 minutes)

The tour could be bilingual.
