Valtournative - Day Trips and Excursions in Valencia - Sustainable Tourism - Hot Springs Montanejos

Dany is the best guide I’ve ever met. He made our experience fantastic and explained us vey interesting facts and stories during the trip. It was a big pleasure to be part of this.

Our Las Fallas tour with Daniel was amazing. We learned so much about the Fallas - that I don’t think we would have otherwise. It was the highlight of our trip. Being able to go behind the scenes to meet the locals that create it was very special.

The best tour I've done in ages. Danny was fantastic. We did the Fallas Insider Scoop. We learned so much and got access to places we couldn't have on any other experience. I'd do/recommend any tour organized or led by Danny.

Very informative. Amir has a wealth of knowledge and experience. The Fallas tour was one of a kind.

The Fallas Insider Scoop was a great experience! Daniel took us around the city, explained the themes and meanings behind several fallas as well as the history behind the celebration and the inner workings of the fallero clubs. The tour was personable and eye-opening as we got to meet members of a fallero club and see a couple of fallas up close and personal. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience Las Fallas or just Valencia in a new light!

We had an amazing time with Danny on our Valencia springs day tour. Danny was so knowledgeable and friendly. It was one of the highlights of our trip, definitely not to be missed. We really enjoyed seeing the more rural areas outside the middle of the city, and trying the food at the restaurant that was recommended. I'd recommend this trip to anyone who is visiting Valencia.

Had an amazing experience with Daniel. Even in December he created a great itinerary with history, views and nature and wonderful food. It felt like an adventure instead of a tour.

Daniel was really accommodating and knowledgeable. I had a great time! Want to take another tour with him 😌🫶🏽

Great experience with an awesome guide - Amir!

We really enjoyed our day with Danny and Amir, they are great guides and hosts and share their knowledge of Valencian history and the region very passionately. All in all, a great day out!

Wonderful trip with great locations and fantastic tour guides! Went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time!!

Doskonale zorganizowana wycieczka, od początku wiedzieliśmy ze szczegółami gdzie jedziemy, po drodze wszystkie istotne miejsca były omawiane. Przewodnik, kompetentny, miły, cierpliwy, nie pośpieszał nas, nawet kiedy okazało się, że trochę przeciągnął się nam dzień i do Walencji dotrzemy 40 minut później niż była to planowane. Zapewniono nam buty do pływania, okulary, nawet koc do siedzenia. Kiedy okazało się, że nie ma gdzie zaparkować przy atrakcjach, Przewodnik wysadzał nas jak najbliżej się da, a sam jechał dalej odprowadzić samochód. Tak samo odbywa się kiedy zmienialiśmy miejsce. Było to dla nas miłym zaskoczeniem, zwłaszcza, że dzień był upalny i nie do końca dało się chodzić. Fantastyczna propozycja miejsca na obiad, z pięknymi widokami, smaczne jedzenie. Kiedy w czasie rozmowy pytałam o pewien rodzaj wina, który chciałam kupić na prezent a nie byłam w stanie określić jego nazwy. Przewodnik, kiedy my się kąpaliśmy wyszukał je i podpowiedział, gdzie możemy je kupić, gdyż w niewielu miejscach było. Polecam tego organizatora z czystym sercem. 😊👍

Excellent your with a fantastic guide. Really recommend.

Strange for me. The guide completely leaves the opportunity for the group (8 person) to independently create their own mood, photo, comfort and care. He can only be useful if you constantly ask for it, but nothing more. Lunch was very tasteless, and the bill was higher than on the menu. I told my disappointment to guide, to which I received his gratitude for the review, that he will contact with restaurant manager and that I was just unlucky with the group, which in his opinion were introverts. I was so upset and guide saw it. The organisers didn't even to contact me about so poor quality service. Maybe I should have asked him about that too.

Valtournative is the bee's knees. An excellent and high quality tour operator. I went on the hot springs tour in Montanejos with host/business owner, Danny, who has a real passion for knowledge, people and the natural world. He told us many stories, myth and fact, about the countryside and towns that surround Valencia, as we made our way to the springs. They themselves were exceptional in their beauty and tranquillity. Plus a delicious lunch (not included in the tour price) to top off a brilliant day. Worth every penny - get out of the city and dive into a unique experience.

We had a wonderful time!! Danny was friendly , very knowledgeable and a great guide. It was wonderful to see the country side and little villages. We had a lovely lunch, bought some fruit from the locals and felt like we got to see a bit of the ‘real’ Spain. Thanks Danny and Claire.

I am very well traveled. I’ve done tours all over the world. This is some of the best tours I’ve ever done, mainly because Danny is so great. I did Wine & Caves, Caves/natural springs of Bocairent, thermal springs, and Peñíscola all with them and I couldn’t recommend more. My favorite was the thermal springs, but honestly they were all well worth the price. Danny is communicative, on time, friendly, full of good stories and facts, and gives you a great taste of the local culture

I highly recommend this day trip to Montanejos. Not only was the scenery stunning and the transportation nice and comfortable, but our guide Dani (fluent in English + Spanish) really made this trip memorable with his unique personality and humor that made everyone have a really great time!

Our day tour with Daniel was an amazing adventure filled with both excitement and relaxation. Daniel went above and beyond to meet our expectations, showcasing his extensive knowledge and adeptness at gauging the group's vibe. He guided us to delightful spots and captured stunning photos and videos. My only regret is not having Instagram, but I couldn't recommen enough!

Daniel is a really helpful person. The tour is amazing! Very well organised. Highly recommended

3 of us went on this excursion and we had a blast. Daniel was a great guide and we really appreciated the history and stories he told and just talking with him in general. He went out of his way to help my 71 year old mother and make sure she was safe around the waterfalls and up and down the bus steps. We had a great time getting to know the other guests and the two food stops were wonderful. It was a bit chilly and windy but we were still able to get in the springs and enjoyed a refreshing swim. We loved that Daniel took time to take photos and videos of it and overall as an amazing day.

It was a great tour. I just arrived in Valencia to live - in the middle of Fallas! - and the tour really gave me insight not just into the festival but the whole Valencia culture, mindset and history. Amir was very knowledgeable and it was special to have access to one of the fallas `clubhouses‘, to go behind the scenes, in a sense. Would definitely recommend this tour - it’s a lot of walking, so wear comfortable shoes.

This was the highlight of my trip to Valencia. My mother and I had so much fun and were able to meet other travelers from different parts of the world. Danny was our host and he was absolutely amazing. He made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable all while having fun. I would highly recommend the trip to the thermal springs and bridal falls if you have the time.

It was an amazing day, showering under a waterfall, sliding, take a bath in a natural thermal spring and experiencing the power of a horizontal "waterfall". Daniel was a perfect guide, explaining and adding magic to the tour, taking also some nice videos of us. I highly recommend the thermal spring tour! Thank you a lot!

Daniel was an amazing tour guide with so much energy and such love for nature. Also the nap at the end was really good

This was absolutely incredible, and the perfect way to spend time in nature during my Valencia trip. Daniel goes above and beyond to really show you the beauty of Valencia. I was amazed at how many places we stopped, filled with beauty and informative information. I learned a ton, and I would highly highly recommend to anyone visiting. Anyone traveling solo, like myself, this is fantastic way to meet people. Daniel, thank you for everything and I will be back!

Danny was an exceptional tour guide. He was very attentive to everyone in the group and made efforts to personally engage each and every one of us. And the day trip was fantastic as well. Well planned to have us enjoy enough time on our own and at the same time not let it drag on.

My wife and I had an amazing time on the hot springs tour. Everything was perfectly planned. Danny is an amazing tour guide. He provides plenty of useful, interesting information about the sights and places we visited. But more importantly, Danny has an amazing ability to engage with the group, which, in turn, had the group engaging with each other. As a result, in addition to seeing some incredibly beautiful scenery, we also met several great people who we will keep in touch with.

Wonderful! Professional and friendly stuff. Tour is so good.

You MUST include the Thermal Springs Day Trip as part of your next trip to Valencia! The thermal springs were absolutely magical, the restaurant Danny picked for lunch was 10/10, and I couldn't believe how much we were able to see in one day! El Chorro is breathtaking, and Bridal Falls has a natural slide in the swimming area! Danny is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, guided us through tasting natural walnuts/berries/figs in the area, had wonderful stories to tell us, and made sure each one of us was comfortable. Also, his camera/video skills were amazing! The sprinter van was also very modern and comfortable.

Incredible experience. Beautiful spots we wouldn't have found on our own. A very relaxed atmosphere provided by the host. Comfortable transportation provided. And really felt like we had the right amount of time everywhere. Just enough to take in each site without feeling rushed.

This tour is excellent. Our guide, Amir, who is a Valencia native, is not only an able guide to the natural spaces we visited on the tour,, he was also extremely knowledgeable and informative about the history and architecture of not only Valencia city, but also of the smaller towns on the way to the mountains, which was a pleasant, unexpected bonus to the trip. The mountainous region of the destination is beautiful, and the rivers where you take a dip (the first stop is deep enough to swim a bit) are idyllic. If you want to escape the heat and humidity of Valencia for a refreshing day trip, I couldn't recommend this more. Five stars.

Absolutely amazing experience! Huge thank you to Amir who taught us all sorts of interesting facts about Valencia and the springs and the history of Spain, I can wholeheartedly recommend this tour! We were well looked after, the tour was amazing and well organised, we even got swimming shoes so the rocks in the spring won't hurt our feet! I was also delighted to find out that the group plants trees for each guest they host, which is brilliant! We couldn't have picked a better business to support, keep up the work and the fun, guys!🥳

Esta excursión era esencial durante mi viaje a Valencia! La travesía estaba planeado perfectamente, incluyendo muchas actividades de bastante tiempo de disfrutar y sacar fotos. Ha incluido una comida en un restaurante tan guay que ofrecía comida típica española con cañas locales. Este día fue la parte más memorable de mi tiempo en Valencia. Hemos visto muchos ejemplos de la naturaleza pura y fresca, con las estructuras antiguas bellísimas. Le recomiendo mucho este viaje. ¡Gracias por un día maravilloso!

Amazing tour to Montanejos with Amir! Plenty of breath-taking views and interactions. Amir was very attentive and helpful throughout the trip.

Smuk natur og kølige kilder 🍀

This is one of the best tours I've ever been on! I was able to see such beautiful nature spots and villages that I wouldn't have been able to see otherwise. Danny is such an awesome tour guide he went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time and has such great knowledge of the area's history. He also takes great pics of everyone on the tour :)

Anyone who visits València should book a tour with Daniel and Valtournative. We just finished an absolutely wonderful day in Montanejos where we learned all about the history of Valencia and surrounding region, ate wonderful food, and - most importantly - enjoyed the natural beauty of the springs, rivers, and waterfalls. Not only was it a wonderful trip, but it was a much appreciated escape from the heat and crowds of other cities we’ve visited. We are a family of four with a 10 and 12 year old, and they rank our day with Danny as No. 1 out of the last 5+ weeks of travel! Finally, we deeply appreciated Danny’s kindness, preparedness, patience, and extra attention to detail. He is lovely and we would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Spain.

Danny is an awesome guide and created a truly memorable experience. The falls and everything was incredibly cool. Definitely get a tostada con tomato when you're at the Thermal Spring they are a great little snack.

Ein perfekter Tag in wundervoller Umgebung mit einem ganz tollen Guide

Great experience😍

Utterly unforgettable. We would never have found the wonderful experiences Daniel gave us without booking this trip. We were so lucky, everyone else on the trip was so much fun & we've made some friends for life. We'll definitely be going back to do some of Daniel's other tours, he really knows his stuff & obviously loves his job

Highly recommended the tour. Daniel is amazing and is so well informed. He truly enjoys giving the tour and it shows. If you are planning a trip to Valencia I suggest you book the tour ASAP before your dates are booked up!

We booked a full day thermal springs and waterfall excursions with Daniel. There are really no words to describe this excursion. The whole day was really magical. Daniel is beyond knowledgeable and passionate about Valencia and the surrounding area. He cares about people and made the day beyond special. Each place he took us to was beyond beautiful and so unique to this region. Don’t hesitate to book this tour. highly recommended!

We had a wonderful time! Daniel was great at working with the kids. Everyone slept heavy that night.

Had an absolutely delightful trip to see the thermal springs. Danny was a charming, knowledgeable and caring host. Group size was about twenty, but didn’t feel too big. Also wild mountain goats!

Our private day trip to Albarrecin and Teruel was delightful. The 2 cities are picturesque and well worth the time. Daniel is a knowledgeable, personable guide and storyteller. He was able to customize the tour to our various fitness levels, so that all 3 of us had a challenging, rewarding tour. Highly recommend. 5 Stars!

Highly recommended this trip as a way to explore Valencia's surroundings and escape from the city. I was blown away by the crystal clear waters of the thermal springs which we basically had to ourselves! Daniels extensive knowledge of local history and culture makes the trip all the more enriching and he makes everyone feel at ease.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Beautiful places, interesting stories, people full of passion. Strongly recommended.

Truly exceptional experience! The day was one of our favourites in Spain. Amir was a wonderful guide, knowledgeable, thoughtful and well spoken. Ana’s professional driving skills were noted and appreciated. The many locations we visited were unique and captivating spanning the scope of peaceful and powerful. These rural treasures captured Valencia’s natural beauty perfectly for us. We were grateful we had the opportunity to experience it with the wonderful diverse and engaging fellow travellers on this experience. Made the trip just that much more special. Also Important to note …The van was spacious, comfortable and provided great views of all the wonderful sights. Thank you for hosting this experience.

Danny was amazing!! He was personable, energetic and fun. He clearly enjoys what he does and it shows. It was quite an experience and I hope to bring my kids back to experience it too!! The little village restaurant he brought us to had one of the best food I’ve had in Spain. I would highly recommend this day trip!!

Full day of visiting amazing places. The tour guy is very friendly, he told us everything about Valencia. Best ventje.

Fantastic experience. Lovely scenes, good timing, and nice company. Our guide was great.

È stata una esperienza unica, abbiamo imparato tante cose nuove grazie alle conoscenze della nostra super amichevole guida, Daniel. Ci ha condotto in luoghi suggestivi e fatto vivere una giornata da ricordare con nuovi amici da tutto il mondo. Consigliato al 100%

Great experience with such a calm and nice guide who made it feel like we known him for years. The waters were quite refreshing. A good out of the city of Valencia tour to get into nature.

This was a magical day! Daniel our guide, was so calm, knowledgeable and helpful. After a countryside bus ride, he lead our group to natural thermal springs in a stunningly clear river with beautiful cliff canyon walls, told legends of these waters and the people of the mountains, and shared information about the local plants and animals. We also visited other areas with breathtaking waterfalls and vistas, and enjoyed a traditional lunch at a local independent restaurant. This company is so worth booking with and on top of a great tour, they are giving back to their community by planting a tree for every client in order to support reforestation efforts after the recent fires in the area. Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking to step away from the city for a day of respite…. Enjoy!

augustus 2022 : samen met mijn dochter van 17 heb ik een prachtige dag gehad tijdens de Hot Springs Tour ! Gids Daniel vertelt al op de bus veel verhalen en weetjes over Valencia, de tuinbouwcultuur, het Calderone gebergte. De hele dag is leerzaam én interessant :-) De site van de bronnen is een zalige ervaring : helder water, indrukwekkende natuur, fotograaf Daniel. Middaglunch heel ruime keuze van gerechten en tapas, geen probleem voor mensen met allergieën of intoleranties. In de namiddag volgt een bezoek aan een stuwmeer en de indrukwekkende andere kant van de stuwdam ! En als afsluiter kan je nog een 'douche' nemen onder een hoge waterval. Je stapt alvast gewassen en voldaan terug op de bus ;-) Gids Daniel spreekt perfect Engels en komt de hele dag tegemoet aan de noden en vragen van de deelnemers. Dankjewel Daniel !

We had an amazing trip with Valtournative. 9 hours ofamazing fun. Even the bus ride was so informative, as Amir peppered us with tons of info about Valencia, Spain and the country side. We also made new friends. Recommend this tour 300%

Nous avons choisi l’excursion « immersion dans les sources thermales de Montanejos ». Superbe journée dont nous nous souviendrons! Proche de Valence, nous avons l’impression d’avoir découvert des endroits secrets et insoupçonnés. L’excursion est très intéressante, on en prend plein les yeux. Amir est un guide qui explique très bien et a des connaissances intéressantes et précises. Le repas n’est pas inclus dans le prix de l’excursion certes, cependant le restaurant dans lequel nous avons déjeuné tous ensemble était très bon, et cela permet de manger ce que l’on veut et en quantités que l’on souhaite. Une très bonne excursion que nous conseillons!

We booked the tour spontaneously and it was the best decision we could’ve made. It was a great change from the city, the nature was so beautiful and the tour was well organised and flexible. Danny is very accommodating and makes sure everyone is having a great time. We highly recommend this!

Superbe expérience le guide était extrêmement bien organisé attentionné et consciencieux. La visite des chutes de montanejos est un must. Très bon rapport qualité prix !

My son and I were also eager to discover the other Valencia and this excursion did just that!! What a fun day, pleasant host, Amir, who had a lot to tell about Valencia, super attentive to everyone in the group, speaks perfect English and Spanish of course ;-), no question was too much! The organization was also very good, communication via Airbnb was very smooth and quick, I can really recommend Valtournative for your trips :-)!! We were lucky with our group, all great people from different countries. But above all the experience is really worthwhile, I can recommend it to everyone!

Our excursion to the Moorish Caves was the most memorable experience of my trip. It was absolutely amazing! Daniel balanced seeing, doing and learning so well. His warm and happy personality were amazing throughout. If you want to do something unique in a truly beautiful place, this tour is your best bet.

A must do

Fantastic tour and tour guide, Danny. Judy, Jed, and Kathy

1 day trip to Hot Springs Montanejos with this tour and you feel that you saw so many amazing places in one day. Our guid Amir was just the right person to have a lovely trip. If you are in Valencia, don't miss these beautiful places. And if you have some back problems, small kids or you think that you can't do it, don't worry, the trip is very simple and ok for everyone that u can't do it, don't worry

Wirklich sehr empfehlenswert! Toller Guide, der einem tolle Bade und Fotospots im Laufe des Tages zeigt. Fairer Preis und es wurde an alles gedacht!

Nice experience. Would recommend

Had a great day trip to the thermal springs outside Valencia. Our host Danny was absolutely brilliant, full of enthusiasm, insight and genuine passion for the city and its surroundings. If you happen to be in Valencia i would strongly recommend booking with them, you wont be disappointed!

This was an amazing tours with beautiful sights, great food, and amazing tour guide.

It was an amazing day! Very well planned and organised...thanks to Daniel, and the group of lovely people we met today xx

This tour was spectacular in every regard. The bus ride to the Montanejos Thermal Baths was made more interesting by our tour guide Amir. He gave fascinating information along the way about the different towns we traveled through and any relevant landmarks to that town. Amir is an asset to Valtournative, as his knowledge of every locale we visited was extensive and he spoke perfectly in both in English and Spanish. I am still impressed by how quickly he switched from English to Spanish to ensure everyone had the exact information he was sharing with us. His personality was also quite friendly and approachable. Upon arrival to the baths, he provided equipment to enjoy our swim (goggles, swim shoes), and at all times, he gave clear communication of what to do to maximize the experience and when to gather back. The Montanejos Thermal Baths was simply amazing. The water was incredibly refreshing and clear to the bottom. Further down the ravine, there were more beautiful natural sights and even a small cliff where you could jump into deeper waters. We enjoyed drinking pure spring water and later, visited other natural sights that were equally amazing and impressive. We stopped to have lunch and I had the most perfectly prepared sea bass. Others in the group were also quite pleased with their choices. The amount of detail in this tour is something that I will not forget. One example of this occurred when each member of the group (who only spoke English) placed their lunch order. While doing so, Amir stood alongside the wait staff to be ensure the orders were understood before going to the kitchen and to help the group with questions about the menu. I will use this tour company again for future trips to these baths. I highly recommend this day trip to anyone visiting Valencia.

Tour maravilhoso. Não foi feito corrido. Deu pra aproveitar cada lugar lindo. O guia é ótimo. Super recomendo

Great tour, great guide, great day. Very likely to book again when we go back to Valencia

Daniel is an amazing guide with great stories and unique, individual approach to everyone! His passion for the places he visits gives loads of positive energy! The places themselves are simply magical and the photos cannot even describe their beauty and uniqueness, starting with springs, but also vertical and horizontal water falls! Daniel thought about every single detail, so before you think about needing something, he already hands it to you! if you are hesitating, please don’t and book this trip, it’s a must do! :)

Absolutely amazing experience and a must do for anyone visiting Valencia 👍 Daniel the tour guide was excellent also.

We booked a private Thermal Springs tour for 4 people with Daniel and could not have asked for a better experience. Everything exceeded expectations! He picked us up near our Airbnb in a van with plenty of room for us and our things. As we drove he shared a wealth of knowledge about the area and the history that I don't think we could have easily gotten anywhere else! Each stop on the tour was breathtaking and we loved getting to explore at our own pace. Daniel was even nice enough to take photos and videos of our group at each stop. The restaurants he took us to were also exceptional and some of the best food we had all trip. We loved getting to experience the smaller villages and meet the locals. I can't recommend this experience enough. You can't go wrong with any tour of Daniel's but if you can, I highly recommend the private tour.

Okay, I kid you not this is a must do day trip if you ever find yourself in Valencia. Our tour guide Danny was fantastic, very upbeat and spoke multiple languages. He was telling us all about the history of Valencia and the history of the sites we visited. The trip involved seeing a beautiful standard waterfall, a waterfall coming out sidewards from a mountain, picturesque lake, thermal springs and to top it all off Danny reserved a local restaurant for us to stop and eat at. Honestly for €79 each was well worth the price for the sites we visited. Danny was the cherry on top and made our trip exceptional. If you read this and you are planning a trip to Valencia, go on this day trip and ask for Danny.

This is an AMAZING tour. Our guide Daniel was super informative, warm and friendly and he knew loads of fun and interesting facts about the areas we went and drove past which I loved. We swam in the beautiful thermal springs and the horizontal waterfall was like nothing else we had ever seen. Would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone, it was the highlight of our holiday!

Ce fut une super expérience dans une très belle nature. Merci beaucoup à Daniel pour cette journée !!

This is a wonderful tour company that we highly recommend. Daniel was a super tour guide, providing lots of interesting information on the history of Spain as well as local information. Clearly he loves Spain! He was extremely accommodating and helpful. He adapted the tour to meet the needs of all tour members. The village of Bocairent was fascinating and our lunch stop was delicious. Our stop at the waterfalls and springs was also very nice, great photo opportunity. Too bad it was too chilly to take a dip! And we love that they are trying to offset their carbon footprint by planting trees on behalf of their clients. Daniel was also very helpful with a side issue we have which we appreciated tremendously. Thanks Daniel for a terrific day!

We had a wonderful tour of the sites. Our guide, Amir, had so much local knowledge and made our tour so personable. Getting to see inside a Fallas Club was incredibly special. If you come to Valencia this is an absolute must

Danny brought us to the Hot Springs and a tour around the beautiful countryside of Valencia. It was stunning and such a wonderful and personalised experience! Loved every second of it! Thank you so much Danny and cannot wait to go on your other tours when we return!

It was such a great day at the thermal springs! Daniel really made this experience special, he has so much knowledge about everything and made sure that everybody felt comfortable. We had so much fun as a group, so I would definitely recommend it, also as a solo-traveller. Thank you!

I did the trip to Montanejos. It was amazing! Daniel is a very attentive and interactive guide. He makes sure that everyone feels comfortable. The trip was perfectly organized but without rush.

Great day out with Daniel in the mountains outside of Valencia, hot springs was an experience that everybody should try while in Valencia.

Daniel was so accommodating from the first interaction. He really knows Valencia, but even more than this he is passionate about it's history. He is very patient and tailors what the group does to suit all members while respecting the local communities visited. I would definitely do another one of Daniel's tours!

We really enjoyed this daytrip! It was such a great way of experiencing the nature around Valencia. Although the hot springs were quite cold beginning of February ;). Daniel, the guide, is very knowledgeable, experienced and kind. Organization and communication were perfect. Daniel was very considerate of our needs as a family (with a 6-year old). And the whole group was having a great time together although we'd never met before.

I did the adventure tour to the hot springs last weekend. It was a really great experience! Also for solo travellers. Daniel was such a great guide with lots of knowledge about all the places and was very thoughtful. He even offered us warmer clothes, made sure that we had enough water, fresh air in the car… everything was perfect! I love that - besides - the great offer, Valtournative also cares about sustainability and plants a tree for every visitor.

Absolutely incredible experience! I was welcomed to the group comfortably as a solo traveller, Danny made great efforts to ensure everyone bonded and we were all doing well on our excursion. The places we visited were gorgeous, and Danny shared so much knowledge of the history behind our various locations. I'll absolutely be in touch with Valtournative again when I next visit Valencia! Thank you ❤

Had an absolutely amazing time, Danny is a friendly, knowledgeable and fun guide and the places are beautiful! The swimming was so refreshing and special, even in January. Thank you Danny!

The thermal tour was spectacular with a great variety of stops along the way. Daniel shared great stories and historical facts about the area. I learned so much and saw such beauty - falling in love with Spain even more. Highly recommend!

I booked the Day trip "Thermal Spring Adventure" with Valtournative and I could not recommend it enough! It's been a great day, spent in truly beautiful spots, on which Daniel had always a story to share. The moments felt really personalized and not rushed at all. To sum up, I met new people, ate locally and took some great pics! 💯% recommend

Ein ganz wunderbarer Ausflug, toll organisiert, schön ausgewählt und man merkt total, dass Daniel mit dem Herzen dabei ist. Ein schöner Tag und eine super Abwechslung neben den städtischen Erkundungaktivitäten, die man sonst in Valencia macht 🏞

Very Nice, easy going tour, everything was well organised. The thermal springs are very beautiful. Guide spook English very well. Perfect trip to escape Valencia for a Day and Explore the surroundings. Thanks Daniel!

My tour experience was quiet fun, time flies by and the group was really fantastic!

Danny provided a world class experience. We felt safe and comfortable. He enriched the experience with well researched and anecdotal information about the history and environment of the wonderful sites we visited. He was relaxed and caring. The whole experience was fun and uplifting with undoubted health benefits. This was also something I believe would be nigh on impossible to achieve independently. We met some lovely fellow travellers on the experience.. Airbnb seems like a great people filter. Don’t hesitate 5 star : )

Great experience!! "Must do" for your (mid-)week Valencia! For each part Daniel gave us a choice to explore by ourselves or to stay with him. He had some great stories to tell and really went the extra mile to show us the amazing nature. He took care of the gear and had great patience with all participants (from different ages). Lunch is at your own expense (which was actually nice because you could choose whatever you wanted to have). The lunchplace had thé best food at a really good price! This experience was a valuable addition to our Valencia trip! Valtournative also offers more day trips.

Danny was amazing during all the day and great photographer/vidéo maker :) The excursion was awesome, all the stops made during the day was great. The nature is incredible. Unforgetable moment!

Went on the springs tour, absolutely spectacular day. Definitely not an experience I would have had on my own. Danny was a great tour guide and went above on beyond to help out the guests. Highly, highly recommend.

Highly recommend this tour. Great value for your money. The tour was suppose to end at 05:00pm, however we came back around 6pm. Daniel is a great tour guide who enjoys his job. He brings a great energy which makes the day more enjoyable. Very flexible with the schedule, as it was a bit of a rainy day. Daniel brought additional shoes and goggles to enjoy the springs. This tour is a good addition to your stay in Valencia. In one day, Daniel will show you a whole new side - springs and waterfalls- of this amazing city.

Daniel est un super guide qui a su rendre notre journée plus qu’agréable. La journée était complète, pleine d’anecdotes sympas et de superbe coin nature. Le restaurant était chaleureux et délicieux. Une superbe expérience a faire si vous passez à Valence.

Very nice trip outside of Valencia with a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. I definetly recommend it !

This tour is amazing. Daniel is great at what he does and really made our day special. Would definitely recommend Valtournative for your day trips, you will not be disappointed.

I was looking for some good nature excursions around Valencia and happened to find this on Airbnb. It turned out to be such a better experience than imagined! Dani was a super cool guide & I got to make some new friends with really cool people that we ended up having a birthday dinner & drinks after the tour! Highly recommended.

An incredible day outside of Valencia, exploring the colourful, fascinating sights of Montanejos and the hidden gems surrounding it. Danny was an excellent guide - polite, helpful, and with a great knowledge of the region and the stories and legends behind each location. You will learn a lot, taste great cuisine, and have some brilliant pictures to remember the experience. If you’re looking for an adventurous day out, give Valtournative a go. Gracias Danny and co!

Wine tasting was perfectly organized day with useful insights and lots of good wine, loved it — thanks to Danny for making the trip to València special!

Amazing experience! Daniel is a very easy going, well organized host and just a nice guy. We had a feeling that we are visiting our old friend and he is taking us around to show some absolutely spectacular places. Thanks a lot for that great moments!

The day trip to the super gorgeous Montanejos Springs, including some glorious attractions such as the salto de la Novia (waterfalls) and the mountaneous province with Daniel, the founder of Valtournative was indeed very special!. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and showed a lot of flexibility and enthusiasm to explain about the sights and also helped me with a lot of photographs. As a Vegetarian, I felt well catered to in a great restaurant like Refugio that was recommended and booked by Daniel. All-in-all, I was certainly well guided and taken care of!. The whole trip has water in various colours, forces, shapes as the central theme and this revealed how rich and lush the region of Valencia is at least at the springtime, Wow!. Valtournative seems like a promising tour operator that provies a number of tours that lets visitors have many alternative options and deeper exploration of quite some unknown places. I wish them all the very best for a good growth and come up with even more exciting tours.

Daniel is a very passionate guide and a great storyteller. He has extensive knowledge of the region, it’s history and traditions that he is eagerly and lovingly sharing with his guests. He was very caring, attentive and generous. We experienced scenic hikes and breathtaking views.Thanks a lot for the truly amazing and impressive experience!

I took a virtual tour in Valencia with Daniel and it was fantastic. Danny was so professional and fascinating. the presentation took about 90 min with lots of fun, games and chats about some activities in Valencia. I felt like Daniel gave me a great perspective about how Valencia is as a place to visit, and I can't wait to do so and to take tours with Valtournative . if you like to feel how it is to travel again, then Daniel and Valtournative will do the right job to do so.

We had a great tour of Valencia's beauty with Daniel. Had a great time and well come back again. Thank you !!!

Thank you Daniel for the instructive and qualitative lecture on the city of Valencia. From working together with Daniel I learned that he plans carefully, reliably and pleasantly. Highly recommend using the tourism services he provides in Valencia and its surroundings. Welcome Dr. Israel Harari

Danny hosted an excellent virtual tour of his hometown of Valencia for our group. It was fun and informative and Danny was full of insider knowledge of Valencia and the surrounding areas. Virtually touring sunny Spain is the best way to spend a Sunday evening in lockdown.

Daniel Cuevas gave an excellent virtual tour of the famous city of Valencia, Spain and we were able to get to know many landmarks, both new and historic, that Valencia has to offer. The way Paella from Valencia is made, the elaborate costumes they use for festivals, and the culture and way of life for Valencianos added to the amazing tour. Being a Spanish speaker, I was interested to learn that they have their local dialect, Valenciano. Some of their local drinks are also found in Mexico, like Horchata for example. Daniel was a detailed and insightful guide with lots of interesting tidbits. He was able to answer any questions we had about this city and we only hope to visit Valencia soon! We recommend Valtournative for all your sightseeing activities in Valencia.

The thermal springs day trip was an incredible experience! The guide Daniel is very knowledgeable and friendly and the best person to show you around. The spot where we had lunch is stunning as well. It was an unforgettable day. Thank you!

Excelente paseo. Lugar magico. Daniel logró que pasaramos un día espectacular. Muy atento! Cuidó cada detalle. ¡Súper recomendado!

My experience with Valtournative and Daniel was AMAZING. The absolute highlight of my stay in Valencia. They went out of their way to show the most awesome sites in just a day and the value I got for the money payed was more than worth it. I would recommend this company to any friend traveling to Valencia, and will definitely book with them when coming back.

I booked the one-day tour of Montanejos Thermal Springs and it was simply UNIQUE thanks to the marvellous landscapes, to the great time I spent with the other participants and, above all, thanks to Daniel’s kindness and preparation. He loves his land and is able to transmit his love by sharing with you interesting historical anecdotes and fun facts about the places you visit. He is a prepared, kind, professional tour guide, very careful about your needs. If you go to Valencia, I highly recommend you to choose one of Daniel’s experiences in order to taste the authentically Valencian vibes!

Had a amazing experience with Daniel ! Never ever been a place like this , feel myself being apart of nature . With our lovely guider Daniel we had a wonderful day! ! U make my day! Daniel !

I must be honest. At Corona times it is not easy to plan trips or tours. Our trip to Valencia was very spontaneous and we had no big expectations, since everything was overbooked, closed or the tour agencies didn't speak english. We called Valtournative basically one night before the tour. But it worked out very well. Valtournative responded very fast, professionally and tried their best to adjust to our last minute needs. The tour to Montanejos - the so called hot spring - was amazing. Daniel the tour guide was very creative and made the tour unforgettable. We felt like we met a local friend that showed us the secrets of Montanejos. We will come back one day and take another tour with Valtournative :)

Wir hatten eine super schöne Thermal Springs Adventure Tour. Unser Guide war sehr freundlich und konnte uns sehr viel über die Gegend erzählen.

Booked as part of a surprise trip with Journee, our excursion with Valtournative was completely unexpected! Not something my boyfriend and I would have booked by ourselves but a perfect day out. We will definitely be looking to do more stuff like this in the future! The views were exquisite and the tour was all around a beautiful experience. Our guide Daniel was very helpful and spoke incredible english. Daniel made an effort with every member of the group and ensured we had a brilliant day. We took a trip up into the mountains to see the dam and swim in the thermal pools which I would describe as a one in a lifetime experience and will remember forever. Perfect for Valentines weekend ❤️.

La recomiendo 100%. Pase un día increíble, Daniel es una persona muy atenta y amable. Ademas saca unas fotos muy lindas para conservar el recuerdo de la experiencia.

Danny was the best. Very knowledgeable, fun, took us to some great authentic restaurants (as well as the springs and some other places), and even dropped us off at a festival that happened to be going on the city that day on the way home.

I had a great time on the thermal springs adventure! Danny is a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide, and it was a relaxing day seeing great sites and learning about this part of Valencia. I highly recommend this tour for people who want to enjoy nature with a refreshing swim in crystal clear water. Thanks again, Danny!

This was one of the best excursions of my travels. Danny was incredible and very knowledgeable. It wasn't an overwhelm day, Danny worked in time to make it more of an enjoyable experience.

Being my 2nd time in valencia I wanted to participate in more activities, I found this tour and I loved every single minute of it. I recommend it :]

My children (8 and 10 years old) and I had an amazing experience shimmying through Moorish Caves and swimming in a little lake. The tour was excellent and our guide, Daniel, was even better. Make sure you book the best experience in Valencia.

Very well organized and good communications. The tourbus is comfortable and the guide has a lot of information to tell. They take time to explore and there is no rush.

Fun tour. Great guide and awesome sights. No regrets and would recommend.

Dani is an extraordinary guide and their Montanejos Tour to the Hot Springs is simply outstanding, well organized, fun and very enjoyable. Definitely recommend!!

I only have excellent things to say about Valtournative. We just experienced three tours with Daniel (1/2 day city tour of Valencia, full day tour of Bocairent with caves, cold springs and then on to Xativa, and a full day tour of thermal springs and surrounding areas of Montanejos). He is knowledgeable and passionate about his city, an excellent tour guide. He set the pace appropriately and shared interesting stories and facts along the way. As a former school teacher, he engaged our daughter (7) and made our Valencia experiences fun, exciting and unique for all of us. We have a new love and appreciation for this region of Spain. We would highly recommend any of their tours!

We give Daniel and Valtuournative our highest rating and recommendation. My husband and I went on the tour to Albarracin and Teruel in January 2019. We were in Valencia for 5 days, and this was absolutely the best part of our trip. We would never have attempted venturing this far from the city on our own, particularly with the language barrier. Both cities have unique architecture and historical backgrounds, and were really lovely. Daniel was extremely entertaining and informative, and good company. He recommended delicious spots for both breakfast and lunch, and we really got to experience the local cuisine. He introduced us to chocolate caliente, which I never would have tried otherwise (although maybe that was not a favor - he got me hooked and then I found out how many calories it has!) He also took some really wonderful photos of my husband and I that he shared with us, which are priceless. We were really glad we did this - it made the trip.

Valtournative Valtournative tours are exactly what the name implies—insightful guided tours to the many alternative wonders of the countryside just beyond Valencia. Millennial-priced, inexpensive day trips out of the tourist-trodden city to the spectacular mountains, historic villages, ruins and phenomenal natural wonders of the region. This young, aptly named tour company, founded by 29 year old Daniel Escriva, runs the best tours we have ever been on. We have had wonderful tour guides in our travels, but never one who was as knowledgeable, thoughtful and kind as our Valtournative guide. Our tour took Judy and me, and one other couple only, up to the hidden natural hot springs of Montañejos—where an Arabic king of Valencia once built a forbidden bath and spa to keep his wives young and beautiful. The sweet, mineral-rich waters are, in fact, extremely good for your skin. Our swim through the emerald waters that spill through the majestic, hidden gorge was magical— and our skin did feel amazing afterwards! We drank from the holy fountain and bottled some to take with us. After our unhurried, relaxed swim, we were brought to a restaurant in the village for a €15 Menu del Día that was among the best meals we’ve ever had in Spain. Wined and fed, we headed up the gorge to the Pantano de Arenoso, where a vast earthen dam creates a beautiful lake that drowned the lost village in the broad valley it fills. In the golden afternoon light below the ruined castle, we enjoyed the view and the conversation in the company of scampering mountain goats. We felt like right proper European bohemian intellectuals. It was picturesque, sublime, and Spanish as it gets, and I found myself remembering a quote by Mark Twain: “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” One of the most remarkable things about the Valtournative experience is that instead of a rehearsed tour script, delivered by rote to a large group, you get relaxed conversation—real human connection that still manages to convey all the history and legend you crave. You feel like you’re just hanging with a new friend, but you realize that you’ve learned so much! This seems to be Valtournative’s signature style and philosophy. Small groups that feel like a private tour, at a tiny fraction of the cost. Maximum authenticity with remarkably comfortable people, at rates a backpacking student can afford. It’s what makes Valtournative a true alternative to any tour experience you are familiar with.

Hicimos una visita a Requena con ellos, muy profesionales, nos hicieron pasar un dia genial, lo recomiendo sin duda. La calidad lo vale.

Profesionales , perfecta coordinación de los tours y apasionados en su trabajo

It's a really great experience if you go to Valencia! We saw beautiful places and Daniel was SO nice to everyone of our group. With the «hot springs» tour, we see something really different than Valencia. Beautiful villages, landscapes and more. If you are a bit adventurous, you can also find an interest in that tour because you can choose sometimes to do «more». Also, we had a lot of informations about what we saw and that's something that is important in my opinion. I know that it could look like a lot of money but it's worth it! C'est vraiment une expérience géniale si vous allez à Valence! Nous avons vu des endroits magnifiques et Daniel a été super gentil et accueillant avec toutes les personnes du groupe. Avec le tour «Hot Strings», nous pouvons voir quelque chose de différent par rapport à Valence. Si vous êtes d'humeur aventureuse, vous aurez aussi le choix de faire «un peu plus» que les autres! Nous avons également eu beaucoup d'informations sur ce que nous voyions, ce que je trouve important. Je sais que ça peut sembler être beaucoup d'argent mais ça en vaut vraiment la peine! P.S.: pensez à prendre des médicaments contre le mal des transports si vous êtes souvent malades en bus! Les chemins dans les montagnes sont très sinueux :)

Mee geweest op deze tour en een super dag gehad, met goed eten en goede tourguide. Zelf heb ik hier de hot springs Tour gedaan.

My wife and i had a wonderful time with Daniel. We wanted a city walking tour. Daniel has a wonderful command of the cities history and its fun spots. We were also fortunate to be there at the same time as their festival with fireworks and dancing in the courtyards and costumes dating back centuries. We enjoyed ourselves and made a new friend with Daniel.

I went on the Hot Spring Tour with Daniel from Valtournative. It was a great day trip which was full of things to see as well as interesting information about each place and Valencia itself. The hot springs were the highlight and it was amazing seeing all the fish there. Such a beautiful location. I really enjoyed the other areas we saw too such as the waterfall, the large lake and dam and beautiful villages. We even managed to see the wild and the semi wild goats in two locations. We stopped in a fantastic place to eat which was chosen on my food taste and at what point I wanted to eat. Over all I could not have asked for a better trip. Thank you

One of the best guides of our hotel, thank you Daniel!

We ended up spending two days in a row with Danny on Valtournative tours. Best two days of our trip. We decided on the Albarracin and Teruel tour on Feb 14th and the Xativa and Bocairent tour on Feb 15th. We could not have been happier with our choices. Getting away from the fast pace and crowds of the metro areas out to these small towns and villages was a much needed change. Danny has a great energy, excitement for travel and knowledge about the places we visit. He has a way about him that makes you feel like you're traveling with an old friend. The towns that we saw on these tours were charming each one with its own unique character. I wouldn't trade this experience for anything.

Me and my boyfriend went on the hot springs of montanejos tour in September and it was amazing! Such beautiful sites and Danny's knowledge of Valencia is incredible. Will hopefully get to go on the other tours in the future.

I did a private tour with Valtournative a couple of years ago and I had a great time . It was like a day out with friends . I totally recommend this company !

We stayed at Valencia from 13 to 15 January and we decided to choice the "Hot Spring Tour". Daniel is an excellent guide, he drived us to the discovery of the natural surroundings of Valencia explaining all the history and legends, among waterfalls and good food. The most incredible part of the day was to bathe in the waters of Hot Spring in the middle of winter, despite the cold outside. We have to thank him for the excellent day spent together and for the touch of madness to realize our every request.

Bellissima esperienza. Abbiamo fatto il tour guidato alle Hot Springs e la giornata è stata davvero piacevole e molto ben organizzata (grazie anche alla capacità ed alla simpatia di Daniel). Bellissimi paesaggi montani, davvero belle le sorgenti calde ( consiglio di farlo come noi in pieno inverno, con temperatura esterna intorno ai 4 gradi ed acqua a 25. una vera esperienza!). In sostanza consiglio vivamente di affidarvi a loro per i vostri tour nei dintorni della bellissima Valencia.

Op oudejaarsdag waren wij op zoek naar iets om te doen op 1 januari, via trip advisor kwamen we op Valtournative. Na een belletje met Daniel bleek dat een hot spring tour op 1 januari gewoon mogelijk was. Daniel spreekt vloeiend engels maar wat de tour echt heel gaaf maakte waren alle verhalen die hij kon vertellen over de verschillende plekken waar we onderweg langs kwamen en die we bezochten. Ontzettend mooie omgeving, lekker gelunched, leuke stukken gewandeld en zelfs gezwommen! Door de wetsuits is het prima te doen in het warme water, na een stukje zwemmen/waden kom je bij een hele coole grot uit waar je een stukje in kan klimmen (zelf niet gedaan, mijn vriend wel:) Als we langer in Valencia waren zouden we zo nog een tour hebben geboekt! Naast het leuke dagprogramma ook nog wat leuke tips gekregen voor ons laatste (halve) dagje in de stad. Thanks Daniel for this wonderful day, what a great way to start the new year!!

A great experience!

What a beautiful day in the countryside! Thank you Daniel.
