“Mike and his team do an efficient and friendly job for this tour and it worked out to be the right one for us. The bus/van was also new and comfortable. Other tours incorporate more hiking. But this one is mostly making the 3 stops and getting back to Valencia by 6pm. Thomas was our tour guide and he did a great job. You need water shoes for the spring. These were provided by the tour. But, my wife wore her own Teva-type water sport sandal and they were even better. So, if you have something like that, that's all you'll need. Take a towel and bathing suit. No real…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 404 reviews · 8 hours · from $57Best value

Relax in Montanejos thermal pools and swim near Salto de la Novia on a small-group day trip from Valencia with a local guide.

“Ivan makes for a wonderful guide. He enthusiastically and knowledgeably offered a historical perspective on Spanish culture, influences and economy. He had good knowledge of the natural resources (the area I am most interested in) answering most of my many questions. the trip was well balanced between venues. My husband liked Navajas for the picturesque waterfalls tour and walk through the small town. The thermal springs, in Montanejos, during WINTER were crisp, perhaps a bit overstated. 77 F was true of the 2-3 person retaining pool only (where small fish gently nibble your feet if you remain still-loved this!). The water mixes with mountain runoff making for a cooler swimming…”

8-hour Montanejos hiking tour from Valencia with coach pickup, guided canyon viewpoints, and natural thermal pools at Fuentes de los Baños.

“The area and the hike was beautiful, but we found the group was too large. There was no interesting information presented about the area, and it seemed like the main guide just wanted to get the hike part done as quickly as possible. We’re two experienced hikers and found the pace was way too fast, we didn’t feel we could take our time and enjoy the views or even stop to take pictures along the way. I can’t imagine how the more casual hikers felt. The area is breathtaking, and in a group of 8-10 max, it would have been spectacular. The locals also seem quite irritated by a large…”

Not only that he told us a lot about the canion, the vegetation and animals.. He also took a lot of photos and he later send them to me. At the end of the trip (on our request) he made a reservation at his favourite restaurant that the two of us could enjoy a really delicious meal. The whole day and the whole experience couldn´t be better. Thank you!!!”
