Getting around Valencia

Over the last decade, Valencia has increasingly shown its strong tourist vocation.

Large sporting events, and artistic and cultural events of enormous value, have made the number of visitors grow exponentially. Thus, thanks to the numerous investments, today the city boasts an efficient public transport system.
A network in which, Metrovalencia, represents the real flagship. Just think of the fact that the Valencian metro is among the most accessible in all of Europe.

Bus and metro are part of the integrated charging system. Here are the practical information on how to get around Valencia.

GETTING AROUND VALENCIA BY BUS

The Empresa Municipal de Transportes de Valencia, EMT, manages the efficient public road service, ideal for getting around the city, and in the surrounding areas. Modernity and approach will characterize the Valencian buses, many of which have a lowered structure for the disabled.

Typically, day lines are in service from 04.00 to around 22.30. The timetable, however, may vary depending on the lines. Buses are identified by a progressive number of one or more digits, depending on the line.
There are, then, some special lines, active in conjunction with particular events. This is the case of the 78 Line, which, during the period of the Fallas, performs a special service directed by Tetuan Porta de la Mar to Plaça d’Espanya.

GETTING AROUND VALENCIA BY NIGHT

Generally, many prefer to use taxis during nightlife hours. There is, however, a convenient, inexpensive, overnight road transport operated by EMT. Twelve bus lines, identified by the letter N, followed by a one- or two-digit number. They make stops at many points of interest and strategic, including the suburbs.
Buses from N1 to N10, all leave from Plaça de l’Ajuntament. The N89 and N90 buses follow the Ronda de Trànsits.

Night service is available every day, from 22.30 to 2.00. On Fridays and on the days before the service the service ends at 03.30.
