Albufera's visit: Guided visit to the nature reserve known as Parque Natural de la Albufera which is only 15km South of Valencia. After a short drive we will find ourselves surrounded by nature as the natural reserve comprises marshlands, woodlands, dunes and a lake. It has a high ecological value and in it there are species in danger of extinction. The marshlands contain some of the biggest rice-fields in Spain, while the lake known as La Albufera is a favourite stopover for migratory birds. You will enjoy a panoramic drive on board of the bus to La Albufera passing by the woods of La Dehesa and the rice fields. We arrive at the village of El Palmar, where we board our boats for our cruise on the placid lake (1 hour approx.) and visit a barraca (traditional dwelling of the former fishermen and farmers of the area). El Palmar is full of family-run and traditional restaurants and we recommend you eat there once the visit is over (lunch meal included).
