THE ULTIMATE FAMILY ITINERARY TO VALENCIA
VALENCIA might be the third-largest city in Spain, but it rarely feels like it. Far more compact and intimate than both Barcelona and Madrid, it is also much more geared up for families, with a very walkable Old Town, a far-reaching network of fantastic cycle routes, a space-age science museum and cinema, and some of the best city beaches in Europe.
In three and a half days, you’ll discover the very best of Valencia. You’ll cycle around the city following the course of a dried-up river. You’ll take a street-art tour of the bustling Barrio del Carmen, shop in Europe’s largest produce market and swim in the Mediterranean. And you’ll probably eat more paella than you ever thought was possible.
