Valencia: Oceanogràfic Entry Ticket

1.Oceanogràfic Entry Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 9,893 reviews · 1 day · from $44Our pick

Spend a full day at Valencia’s Oceanogràfic, part of the City of Arts and Sciences. Your ticket covers every exhibit, from the Mediterranean and Arctic to the shark tunnel, beluga pool, outdoor bird areas, and dolphin auditorium. Allow at least four hours, and arrive early in busy seasons.

“The exhibits are put together so well and so thoughtfully! It’s a remarkable experience for all participants. It was one of the true highlights of our trip to Europe and we would encourage everyone who visits Valencia to put it on their list. I’d just say maybe a few more places where people could sit and rest or watch the wildlife.”

He made stops along the way and pointed out some interesting facts about the city. He also took photos for us and even a video of us all riding. It was by far the most fun experience and tour we had in our 10 days in Spain. 10/10 highly recommend and thanks again, Santiago!”
