Discovering Spain: Bocairent Medieval Tour from Valencia

Set in the heart of the Comunidad Valenciana, Bocairent is a medieval village where history is carved into every stone. Discovering Spain’s private transfer tour from Valencia invites travelers to step back nearly 1,300 years to the village’s origins, founded by the Berber peoples during the 8th century. This daylong journey, lasting seven hours, is more than a sightseeing trip—it’s an immersion into a timeworn world of narrow cobbled alleys, whitewashed houses, and hidden pasts.

The highlight is the UNESCO-listed Covetes dels Moros, subterranean caves hewn into soft limestone cliffs and used as dwellings in the medieval period. Walking through these labyrinthine chambers offers a rare glimpse into prehistoric civil engineering and the daily lives of Bocairent’s Moorish inhabitants. Above ground, the village’s layout feels like a maze designed to confound invaders, while landmarks like the ancient Plaza de Toros, one of Spain’s oldest bullrings, and the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción—with its sacred art museum—underline the cultural depth of the town.

Discovering Spain brings this unique combination of natural geology, medieval architecture, and layered history alive through expert local guides and seamless private transportation from Valencia, making this accessible for families and adventurous couples alike. The tour’s thoughtful design ensures you experience Bocairent’s charms comfortably and richly, away from the crowds.

This journey stands out in the Valencian outdoor scene for blending heritage, gentle outdoor walking, and cultural discovery in one package. For those seeking a meaningful encounter with Spain’s quieter historical corners, this tour offers an unforgettable gateway deep into the Iberian past.
