10 Reason you should get Valencia Tourist Card
1. COUNTLESS JOURNEYS
Valencia Tourist Card allows you to get 60 buses, 9 metros and tram lines. So you can go wherever your heart desires upon your arrival! You can go straight to your hotel from the airport or even better – directly to the beach!
2. THE BEST VIEWS OF VALENCIA
Go up to the two remaining gates of the old wall that surrounded and protected the historic centre of the city. Serranos and Quart Towers are two of the best rooftops to see the heart of Valencia and the Turia Garden from a bird's eye view!
3. ALL YEAR ROUND DISCOUNTS
The travellers always face the eternal question: what do I take with me as a souvenir? With globalisation, it is becoming more and more difficult to find an authentic souvenir that can only be found at the destination you are travelling to, but that doesn't happen in Valencia! With Valencia Tourist Card you can get discounts for souveniers! So why not get a hand-painted fan (did you know that most fans sold in Spain are made in Valencia?), buy famous porcelain figures from the Valencian company Lladró, official luggage of Valencia CF, perhaps clothes for children made here by Miralindo or the unique jewels of Vicente Gracia.
4. THE UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE TOUR INCLUDED
Enter the Lonja de la Seda, a jewel of European civil Gothic and an architectural example of the mercantile splendour of Valencia's silk industry. Take the audio guide and let yourself be carried away by the impressive helicoidal columns of the main hall, the orange grove courtyard or the surprising polychrome wooden ceiling of the Consulate of the Sea hall.
Take advantage of your visit to visit the Fallas Museum and learn about the evolution of our most international festival, the Fallas, declared intangible heritage of UNESCO in 2016. All the figures that have been pardoned from fire since 1934 are kept there.
5. SEE THE ONLY NATURAL PARK WHICH IS LOCATED SO CLOSE TO A CITY
Only 10 kilometres separate Albufera Natural Park from the centre of Valencia! The best thing is that you can get there with the bus 25 which is included in the Valencia Tourist Card, or with the Bus Turístic, and get a 2 € discount. But of course, only if you are interested to get to know the unique ecosystem where paella was born, relax on beaches with dunes, take a boat trip or discover a surprising biodiversity that coexists with traditional fishing, the cultivation of 16,000 hectares of rice and 350 species of birds. What? Have we convinced you?
6. 20 X 20
With Valencia Tourist Card you can get 20% discount at 20 restaurants in the city! Here's a selection: close to the beach and specialising in Blue Marina or Casa Isabel rice dishes; in the centre and if you're looking for La Cigrona or Navellos tapas and if you're more gourmet, Lienzo or Leixuri. But here you have them all.
7. DISCOUNTS FOR CHILDREN!
The Valencia Tourist Card has a lot to offer for you and your family! Get 10% discount on tickets to various paradises for children such as museum of Sciences or Oceanographic, which is the largest aquarium in Europe, the Bioparc - a real safari through Africa and the Hemisphere - IMAX cinema and amazing 3D.
You can also get a 10% discount on a guided tour of the Mestalla football stadium, bike hire or a special guided tour for families with children. In addition, our card allows you to enter the museum with the largest collection of little toy solders at a reduced rate.
8. TREAT YOURSELF TO TAPAS
It's typical: tapas and beer or tapas and wine. Try one or both! Restaurants of El Corte Inglés (Pintor Maella, 37 and Pintor Sorolla, 26) or in Charcutería Amparo or Salazonarte (Central Market). Look for your coupon in the Valencia Tourist Card printed guide and enjoy it!
9. RELAX
If you visited all of our recommended places, you've earned yourself some rest time. Take your Valencia Tourist Card and use it with a thermal circuit at the Olympia Hotel with a 15% discount or take advantage of the special prices on the treatments at the La Alameda Spa and the spas at the Las Arenas, El Parado del Saler and Primus hotels.
10. MORE FUN!
There's so much! Let's see what you think: get to know the Roman remains from 2,000 years ago at the L'Almoina underground museum, see one of the best museums of contemporary art in Europe, get to know and be able to buy craft products made in Valencia at the Centre d'Artesania, see crops that are 200 years old at the Botanical Gardens! Reserve your place (for half the price!)) on such unique guided tours as the Holy Grail or the Silk or get on the Wine Bus and spend the day in the vineyards of the Utiel-Requena Designation of Origin (with wineries very well positioned in the Peñín Guide).
