Creator's Key Takeaways

we've got up quite early actually this morning and we went straight out there

I've had a really lovely day

Cartagena was actually what wasn't on our original itinerary we were supposed to be going to Marseille but actually we've been to Marseille a few times and found this a really good swap

we decided that we were going to do the open top bus tour we did do this last year but we really really enjoyed it

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the shuttle bus if on a select fare for free transport to the new town in Valencia
Consider the port bus for beach access, but be aware of no real timetable and a 20-25 minute walk
Take advantage of extended port times when available to stay longer
