Embark on a day excursion to Peñiscola from Valencia, where you will delve into the intriguing story of Pope Luna and discover one of Spain's most picturesque villages. Marvel at the remains of Muslim, Roman, and Templar civilizations!
Tour Overview
At the specified meeting point and time, we will commence our journey to Peñiscola, a charming town situated under two hours from Valencia. Notably, five locations from Game of Thrones were shot in this area!
Upon arrival, we will explore the historic center, where we will encounter examples of Muslim, Roman, and Templar structures while following the path of the ancient fortification that once safeguarded the city. Prepare for a journey through history!
We’ll then visit the Museum of the Sea and admire the striking Renaissance wall built during Philip II's reign. As we stroll through its narrow lanes lined with shops, we will pass the renowned Casa de las Conchas and uncover the story behind its stunning façade.
Our next stop will be the Peñiscola Castle, perched dramatically on a rock above the sea, which served as both a palace and a personal library for the enigmatic Pope Luna, a pivotal figure in Spain's religious history. Our guides will enlighten us on his significance during our visit!
We will then proceed to the beach of Peñiscola, granting you some leisure time to sample the local cuisine.
