Valencia Tourist Bus

What you will see

The red, fully electric double-decker tourist bus has operated in Valencia since 1999 with a hop-on hop-off system—you can get on and off as many times as you like during your ticket's validity. The full circuit takes about two hours and stops at 17 locations, including Calle Pintor Sorolla, the bullring, the Museo Fallero (Fallas Museum), Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències, Oceanogràfic, the Marina, Las Arenas beach, the Museo de Bellas Artes (Fine Arts Museum), Mestalla and Bioparc.

An audioguide explains what you see along the route in ten languages: Spanish, Valencian, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese and Russian.

Price

• 24-hour ticket: €26.00 adults (from 13 years) and €14.00 children aged 5–12.
• 48-hour ticket: €28.00 adults and €16.00 children.
• Children under 5 are free.

A 15 % discount applies with the Valencia Tourist Card. Validity begins when you first board the bus, not when you purchase the ticket.

Opening hours

Runs daily, 9:45–19:00. A bus passes every 30–45 minutes in low season and every 15–30 minutes in high season.

How to get there

You can board at any of the 17 stops; the main one is at Calle Pintor Sorolla, 2, a short walk from Plaza del Ayuntamiento and Calle Colón. If you are staying near the beach or Ciutat de les Arts, it is worth starting at the stop nearest to you.

How much time you need and when to go

• Without getting off, the full circuit takes about two hours.
• The 48-hour ticket costs only €2.00 more than the 24-hour (for adults): if you are spending two days in the city, we recommend it and using the bus to travel between the centre, the beach and Ciutat de les Arts.
• The first bus early in the morning helps you get your bearings; then get off at whatever interests you and board the next bus.
