Enjoy a Valencian vermouth tasting while you take a boat ride on the Albufera, the largest freshwater lake in Spain.
When you arrive at the village of El Palmar, a few kilometers from the city of Valencia, we will be waiting for you at the pier of "Rosa la barquera y Tonet".
From there we will take the boat and go to the chosen spot on the lake that day, drop anchor and start the vermouth tasting.
Meanwhile, the boatwoman or the boatman will tell you the history of the village, the traditions and give you information about the flora and fauna of the natural park. Once stopped, we will serve the vermouth.
