Overview

Our excursion is departing from Valencia city to discover the largest underground river in Europe declared a world heritage site by UNESCO. An amazing underground labyrinth where the magic of nature comes to life. Stalactites and stalagmites intertwine in a stone dance, while vast rooms reveal the grandeur hidden beneath our feet.

Cute boat cave tour of stalactites and stalagmites

Published on Jan, 2025

This is a great 1/2 activity to get out of the city. You take a 45 min boat ride through the underground river faces into the mountains. There is a little light and music show at the end of the ride that is a bit silly but if you want to try something completely different this is a great trip. The surrounding village area is Rey sweet, they have good coffee and the restaurant is of high quality. It’s also a good activity because you are back with most of your day to spare.

City and Cave Tour- HIGHLY recommend

Published on Dec, 2024

Great tour! We loved our guide Katarina! So much information on the bus and the caves were very interesting. I highly recommend getting out of the city and explore the caves. There were some cute cafes by the caves too
