Because we offer anything but 'standard' trips and a lot of flexibility, we do not have an automated booking system.
After completing the booking form, we check the availability of the hotel, and our bikes and confirm the booking as soon as possible. Enter an alternative date in case we have to change to another date due to the weather.
Please also state your height, so that we can prepare the correct size bicycle. And if you're traveling with children, please mention their age and height so we can provide child seats.
Description
VALENCIA is the cycling city of Spain. Cycling lanes connect the car-free historical center with the beaches along the Mediterranean Sea. And the sun shines 300 days a year!
Our Citytrip + has some nice extras; You have a bicycle at your disposal during your entire stay and on the first day you will explore the city with an English, German or Dutch-speaking guide.
And if you want, you can cycle one of our other routes independently, also outside the city of Valencia.
During the guided bike tour you will explore the Turia Park (an old river bed right through the city), and cycle along a number of special places in the historic city center.
After that you keep your bike for the rest of your stay and you can go on a discovery tour, in or outside the city. We provide panniers, directions and maps on the spot. You don't have to return your bike at night; simply lock it in your hotel parking lot. And the next day you can immediately go on the road again. Safe, fast and easy.
In combination with the metro and train you can also make beautiful day trips to the mountains and nature reserves nearby. In that case we can also provide a folding bicycle, which is guaranteed to be allowed on public transport, enabling you to make one-way cycling trips and return by train or metro.
If you want to cycle with your children, we provide child seats, bicycles or the unique Follow me tandem. The child's bicycle then hangs behind the parent's bicycle and can be disconnected so that the child can sometimes cycle independently.
