Program details

This tour by Segway will give you the chance to get to see a greener side to the bustling city of Valencia. Cruise through the lush Turia Gardens, one of Europe’s longest urban parks as your expert local guide provides you with fascinating details and insights into this unique urban oasis. The Segway is an ultra-modern, eco-friendly vehicle, less sweat than cycling, faster than walking and is definitely the best way to explore Valencia’s green lung.

After meeting your expert guide, the tour will begin with a safety briefing where you will learn all the basic manoeuvres. The Segway is simplicity itself to ride as you’ll soon learn for yourself. Then after a few practice spins, it’s time to explore Valencia in style!

Cruise down the Turia Gardens, a unique 10km long complex of parkland, water features and modern architecture built along the old course of the River Turia. On this tour we’ll explore the Parc de la Cabecera, on the western side of the gardens, where the locals come to play and relax.

See how history and modernity combine as you glide past a series of bridges. The Pont de la Trinitat is the oldest in the city, battered by hundreds of years of floods. Others such as the Pont de Les Arts and the Pont del del 9 d’Octubre were built after the waters of the River Turia were diverted in 1957.

Admire the modern sports facilities in these impressive gardens where the locals come to play football, softball, rugby, basketball or simply to relax in the lush vegetation of this unique urban oasis.
