On our last stop of the roadtrip in Spain we checked out all the things to do in Valencia (though not part of the Costa Blanca) and show you around in the city.

MY CAMERA EQUIPMENT

I flew down to Spain in December for 2 weeks to hang out with my friend Greg and his girlfriend Nellie. At the end of my trip we took a train to Valencia and spent a weekend there exploring all the things to do in Valencia and based ourself in a stylish Apartment we rented via AirBnB.

After renting bikes we cycled into the old town and visited the Mercado Central, the Cathedral of Valencia and enjoyed a long ride down the Jardin del Turia to the port and the wide beach. Of course we couldn’t miss out on the typical Paella accompanied by a cold beer.

We finished of our stay with a visit to the City of Arts and Sciences, a futuristic complex full of interesting architecture - the perfect spot to photograph the sunset!

As always feel free to leave more recommendations in the comment section below for future visitors of Valencia and the Costa Blanca (though Valencia is not part of the Costa Blanca)!

Hey guys - please be aware that Valencia is not part of the Costa Blanca, it is just part of a series named "Costa Blanca" ;)

Very cool video lads! Im doing a small road trip end of February from Edinburgh to alicante and im going to take a day out to drive there! Looks very cool!

[sathwick]

You are doing an awesome job exploring this wonderful planet well done!!! 👍 it's very sad that you have relatively less subscribers even though your work is amazing

[katerinabertman]

Thanks for this amazing picture and mood that you've put in this video!)

Being myself from Valencia, I think this guide is very useful, altough obviously you missed some nice places, but I understand that time is limited. I was quite surprised that you found a place where to eat real paella because most of the time tourists end up being scammed with some really disgusting paellas (mostly in the city center), which in the end is harmful for our city's reputation. Also you went to the most iconic place to drink orxata :)

Very good job, guys!

[ainsleyreed]

Good to see you two love birds out'n'abot

[Fribes]

Nice video, but Valencia is not in Costa Blanca, which is just the province of Alicante! Hope you've enjoyed la Comunitat Valenciana! You should visit Sagunto next time you came to this territory!

[derekf]

Which city did you personally like better and why? Valencia or Alicante?

[nenadristovski]

You forgot one important place to visit Mestalla Valencia football club stadium

[victorR]

Valencia costa blanca???? Comorr??? Jajajaja edit the video Costa blanca is from Denia to pilar de la horadada. Its easy to find out before posting the video, in my humble opinion. When somebody doesnt know about anything, please, ask to who knows

A strong passion for languages was born in me but I'm not good at it, I don't know if my fatigue is connected to my being sensitive, introverted and blocked or not because I noticed that most people can study languages easily, I don't know if they were all born with the innate predisposition and I together with the minority are the only losers who don't have it and if you need to have a talent not to struggle with

[QuantumCuttlefish]

Cool video, but money- how much cause you seem to be doing pretty well and not exactly living of $30/day.
