Description

Good to Know

This experience combines history, arch-botany, and gastronomy in the heart of the Huerta de Alboraia. You will visit an ecological field of chufa and the Espai Món Orxata, a unique cultural space that narrates 80 million years of history of chufa. Dinosaurs, hominids, Sioux, Pharaohs, the Roman Empire, Mars, Da Vinci or Quixote... what do they all have in common with the chufa? In addition to traveling in the time machine, you will access a horchata craftsman, something very unusual in Valencia. The experience includes horchata tasting and local pastries, a horchata making workshop and a gift kit (chufa sachet, fartons and chufa chocolate).

Snacks

Simply excellent.

Excellent tour. Not just nice Talks. Scientifically based, well structured. The orxata tasting part is amazing as well: variety of flavours and textures. Antxon is the perfect host and for sure he knows many more facts, details and anecdotes than what he explains. Actually we could have spend the whole day there. The vegan milker is fantastic too. Highly recommended.

Discovery of best Orxata and more!

I tried Orxata in Barcelona and wanted to learn about this drink and tiger nuts. Mon ORXATA was perfect and provided this tour that I could participate.

The harvest time seems in October and so wonderful to see the fields of tiger nuts around. I will come back and will try making it as I learned. Muchísimas g...read more

Muy recomendable

Hemos disfrutado muchísimo del tour! Esther nos lo ha explicado todo genial y ha sido súper interesante! Creo que es una experiencia altamente recomendable para cualquiera, ya sea para gente de Valencia como de fuera. A título personal no era muy fan de la horchata y me he ido siéndolo. La cata fenomenal, la horchata buenísima.

Una gran experiencia

El tour ha sido estupendo, Esther la guía una maravilla, nos lo ha explicado todo genial. Yo he sido horchatera de joven y he rememorado viejos tiempos. Vale mucho la pena. 100% recomendado.
