Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm so excited I keep looking over there because from from my sofa in my bedroom I can see the entire Coastline where the mountains up above with all the buildings laying in the water so this one looks as though it was going to be a brilliant Port

I genuinely think this might be one of the most beautifully looked after cities that that maybe I've ever been to I'm so impressed with it

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Be aware of the all aboard time and ensure you return to the ship on time, as the ship will leave without you.
โœ“Consider walking into the city if you can see landmarks, as it can be a pleasant and doable option.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Welcome back to my Costa Diadema vlog series - my first exposure to Costa Cruises. Costa Diadema is a large ship from Costa, and I was fortunate enough to cruise on the ship for 14-nights around the Mediterranean, taking in ports across Spain, France, Italy, Portugal and the Canary Islands. In this video, we're docking in Valencia, a city on the South-Eastern coast of Spain. I've never been here before, so let's head ashore and explore together! We're going to go and check out some of the amazing architecture, for which this city is famous, before then hitting the old town to see the Cathedral, and try some world-famous Horchata and Fartons (a local delicacy). If you're new to my channel, hello! I'm Fraser, and I'm going to be spending most of 2023 living on cruise ships (as a passenger). It would be amazing to have you along on the journey as we explore together - hit 'subscribe' and let's get out there - I've got LOTS to show you!
