Overview

Enjoy a magnificent boat trip with an expert guide on the Albufera lagoon at sunset (sunset times vary depending on the month). It's the second largest lake in Spain, offering breathtaking views. Afterward, savor what many consider the best paella in the world in the very place where paella originated (menu includes starter, paella, drink, dessert, and coffee).

You'll witness one of the most beautiful sunsets imaginable—an experience not to be missed.

The lake is home to a wide variety of birds, such as ducks and herons, though sightings may vary.

And after such stunning views of the lake, we'll serve a delicious paella unlike any other in the world. Enjoy the exquisite Valencian cuisine, and the best part is that it's all included in the price.

Join us and discover many secrets of our region—only available if you book with us.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    (8)

    Q: Will I get seasick on From Valencia: Albufera Boat Ride, Sunset & Paella Included?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
