Bike rental in Valencia

Valencia is getting more and more bike-proof! New bike paths are being built and the Turia park is a perfect place to ride a bicycle. Therefore it’s no surprise that a lot of people in Valencia use a bike. Besides, it is a great way to discover this diverse city. We would like to welcome you into our bike rental shop to experience it yourself!

Once Upon a Bike Rentals

You can reserve a bike with the reservation form below!

In the most fun and hip area of Valencia you can find our own bike rental shop: ‘Verrassend Valencia Tours & Bike Rental’ (Verrassend Valencia is the Dutch name of our company). The neighbourhood is called Ruzafa, which is a five minute walk away from Plaza Ayuntamiento. In the shop you can rent our comfortable, Dutch city bikes. You can decide if you want a bike with or without a nifty (and pretty!) fruit basket to carry for example a towel, bottle of water, bag or maybe even your small dog. Good to know is that if you don’t want to carry your stuff with you all day, you can rent a locker. Interested in renting a bike? You can make a reservation with the form on this page.

Fun fact: each bike is named after someone. So if your name is Lisa, Tom or maybe Peter: you can ride your own bike!

    Valenbisi

    Are you staying several days in Valencia and would you like to use a bicycle for a little city tour, but as well to travel from point A to point B? Then the Valenbisi system might be a very interesting possibility for you.

    valenbisi

    Valenbisi bikes across the city
    Valencia offers around 2750 bicycles, spread among 275 stations in Valencia. You can rent these bicycles for short term, but also for long term. You can recognize the bicycles by the “Valenbisi” sticker on the bike. All bicycles have got a basket, an adjustable saddle and a biking lock. You can choose between a card for a long term period (you can rent a bike during the whole year, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day) or a card for a short term period (during 7 consecutive days, you can make use of the Valenbisi bikes 24 hours a day). The bikes are distributed over 275 Valenbisi bike stations in Valencia. On the website of Valenbisi, you can find an overview of the distribution points.

    Keep in mind!!
    If you are not used to the city yet, the Valenbisi system could be a bit unpleasant. For example, when you are looking to grab a bike on Monday morning and you find out all the Valenbisi stations near you are empty! Or if you want to spend your Sunday afternoon at the beach and take a Valenbisi from the centre, to find out later that there is no more parking space left at the Valenbisi parkings at the beach. Only if you know where the stations are located and you’ve found out which stations have enough (or not enough) bikes at certain moments, the Valenbisi system could really come in handy. If not, another option could be long term rental.

    How does it work?
    If you are going to use your long term card, keep in mind that you first have to scan your card and then enter your code. The first time you have to read the conditions of Valenbisi, then you will be able to choose a bicycle. During 60 seconds you have time to push on the unlock button in order to get the bicycle disconnected of the bike station. From the moment that you take the bike, you have got 30 minutes of free use. When you return the bike at a bike station, you need to connect the bicycle to a pole at the bike station. If you hear a bleeping sound, then you know that the bike is connected to the station.

    Costs
    A short term card can be bought with a credit card at a Valenbisi station which exists of a credit card payment option. A long term card can be bought at the website of Valenbisi.

    Long term card: Valid during one year for € 25,00
    0-30 minutes: The first half hour the use of the bike is for free.
    30-60 minutes: € 0,52 for every extra 30 minutes.
    Every extra 60 minutes: € 2,06

    Short term card: Valid during 1 week (keep in mind: 7 consecutive days) for €13,30
    0-30 minutes: The first half hour is the use of the bike for free.
    30-60 minutes: € 1,04 for every extra 30 minutes.
    Every extra 60 minutes: € 3,12

    Tips for using a Valenbisi
    – If you return the bike to a Valenbisi bicycle station, make sure the bike is connected to the station. If the bike isn’t connected to the station the costs will increase.
    – If you choose a short term card, you will have to agree with a “deposit”.
    – Keep in mind that if you want to order a long term card, you need an address in Valencia. Valenbisi will send the card to the address.
    – If you don’t want to pay any extra costs, you can change your bike within 30 minutes at another Valenbisi station.
