★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 175 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $32

Ride through Valencia’s historic center and along the Turia Gardens to the City of Arts and Sciences, stopping for photos and short explanations at major sights. The route is mostly flat, and you can choose a regular bike or e-bike. Guides include Daria, Jorge, Liliana and Martin, though the guide for your departure may vary.

“A great activity for a solo traveller. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable but took this to the extreme causing our tour to be an hour longer than advertised. This made it great value for money but quite overwhelming. The amount of fast paced talking did not make the trip relaxing especially as the final stop was so over time we were told to come back at another time to take photos. The promised water stop didn't even happen. There was a lot of getting on and off the bikes which were heavy and difficult to get started. Not sure why we had to carry a hefty lock and chain around…”

The route links old-town landmarks with the City of Arts and Sciences, the port, Cabanyal and the beaches, with brief stops for photos and local context. Hotel or apartment pickup in Valencia is offered.

“Congratulations! You have found the best thing to do in Valencia. Scoot around the city in the super safe side car and see everything without trees blocking your photo if you were in a bus. Jan was a super guide. There is no way you could see everything we saw unless you were on the sidecar. We went through back alleys that no car or bus could ever go through. In two and a half hours we covered the entire city and I can't wait to come back again because it is just so beautiful. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and worth every second of the tour.…”

“We had a tour of the older Gothic area of the city, and then moved on to the newer science focused part of the city. Then rooftop tapas. The tour guide Martha was one of the highlights of the trip. She was proud of her city and that showed during the tour. The other highlight was the young chef who made the tapas. Both of these employees are absolute gems.”

Ride with a guide through the Turia Gardens, parts of Valencia’s historic center, and the City of Arts and Sciences. The three-hour tour includes a bicycle and runs in English and Dutch, with German tours once a week. Guide Mar has led the ride, though your guide may differ. Bring water, and check the cost before adding an e-bike.

“The good was a decent tour led by our very good guide Mar. The not so good was communication with the tour operator, Valencia Bikes, which was apparently due to who I booked my tour through, which is viator.com. I sent two messages that were not answered regarding if there was an upgrade cost to an E bike, and if so, what that was. I didn’t get a response, and so was unable to change my plans when I found out that the upgrade cost was €20, higher than its competitors, and much higher than I’ve seen in other cities. The staff was quite professional, however, completely unwilling to compromise…”
