Take a journey through time to the beautiful town of Xátiva -- the birthplace of two popes and land of the Borgias.
It's a 1½-hour drive to Xativa. Hear some amazing stories as you make your way up to the Castle of Xátiva with the bus. This old fortress has seen empires rise and fall and your guide will reveal some of its many secrets. Learn about its fascinating history, its celebrity prisoners.
Heading back to town, you'll follow a special stretch of road trod by countless pilgrims through the centuries. Peek into the Seu Cathedral and the old granary, and perhaps spot the legendary upside-down portrait of a not-so-popular king. You will have the chance to make a quick visit to the museum chamber of the Borgias -- the local dynasty whose power reached its pinnacle in Rome.
Please note: Wear comfortable walking shoes. Tour does not operate on Mondays and Sundays.
