One of the best things about Valencia is that you are able to get to most places by walking less than 30 minutes. I rarely get on the metro unless it’s to go to the beach or airport, even though it’s a well connected metro with quite a few stations around the city. Quite a few people have bikes, and there is a bike path around the city.

The 'valenbisi' is a bike scheme which is incredibly popular in Valencia. This is highly pragmatic and given how cheap it is (30 euros for a years subscription) it is definitely worth it, not to mention it is really fun as well! Get yourself a Mobilis card from the Tobaco store. You can put your Valenbisi membership on there (buy online), as well as add metro/bus journeys for a very cheap price. A yearly valenbisi membership is around 20 euros, but is without doubt the most economical and efficient way to get round with the high abundance of bike lanes even on the busiest roads.

The metro is quite good as well, with 2 or 3 lines running through the city. Valencia has 2 train stations that are well connected to other parts of Spain.

Valencia does not have Uber, but it does use “Cabify” and “Free Now” which are similar. BlaBlaCar is great to get to other cities in Spain. Also, renting a car and going with friends is also relatively easy and usually costs less then train fares.
