“Wat een deceptie…. De gidsen mogen zich geen gids noemen. Ze liepen voorop maar vertelden niets. Toen we er naar vroegen, gaven ze aan dat er niets te vertellen was, maar dat we vooral van de omgeving moesten genieten. We kregen daar echter nauwelijks tijd voor omdat we vooral door moesten lopen, ook op de mooie fotoplekken. Ze hielden tijdens de wandeling niet in de gaten of alle deelnemers wel meegingen, pas nadat we er wat van hadden gezegd, ging een van de gidsen achteraan lopen.

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 14 reviews · 8 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $57

Leave Valencia at 10 a.m. for Montanejos, where you get two hours at the 25°C Fuentes de Baños springs and an optional three-hour hike beside the Mijares River. Veronika has led some departures with excellent organization. Bring water, lunch, and water shoes for the rocky pools.

“Veronika was hands down the most organised tour leader we’ve ever had and it made life so much easier. Pre tour she sent out a confirmation and also set up a voluntary WA group. She was friendly, professional and responsive. A credit to your company. Also a nod to the driver who wrangled those mountainous turns and some narrow town lanes with top gear level driving skills (we missed her name but thank her also). The river was busy (as expected), but full of happy families and such a place of natural beauty and what clear water.”
