In the Valencian countryside, citrus cultivation plays a key role in both the landscape and local identity. This excursion from Valencia offers a closer look at a traditional orange grove and its historical importance.
The visit takes place in a 19th-century estate where elements of its original architecture are still preserved. During the tour, you will explore the main house and learn about the way of life linked to agricultural activity in the region.
Throughout the experience, a specialised guide explains the different citrus varieties, their growing cycles and the techniques used in their cultivation. The route includes a walk through the grove, allowing you to observe the trees and surrounding environment.
The activity also includes a tasting of local products, such as freshly squeezed orange juice, marmalades or honey made from ingredients sourced directly from the estate. You will also see part of the traditional process of preparing the fruit for distribution.
The visit provides a direct connection with the rural setting, with time to explore the outdoor areas and discover the variety of crops grown on the farm.
Surrounded by rows of trees and the scent of citrus in the air, the setting encourages a slower pace, where each step becomes part of the experience.
