Con’s
The centre of Valencia is not that big and everything is on walking distance. So basically you do not have to use the public transport. Besides that, taxis are quite cheap in Valencia. Day start tariff is €4,00 and afternoon/night (from 22.00 to 07.00 hour) €6,00. For this money the taxi drives two kilometres. So when you are about to take a cab with four persons you only have to pay €1,00 per person. Taking a cab is nice, because you stop exactly where you need to be. Buses and metros don’t drive till late, mostly till 11.00 or 12.00 in the evening. Quite early for a city that lives in the night.
With the Tourist Card you have several discounts, but keep in mind that entrances are mostly between €1,00 and €4,00. Some museums and monuments even have free entrances on Saturdays and/or Sundays.
Tips
– With the three days Card (72 hours) you have discounts (up to 15%) at several organizations, for example: Tourist bus, Do you bike and some museums.
– Kids between 0 and 5 can use the public transport for free, so you don’t have to purchase a Tourist Card for them.
