Preparing your trip to Valencia: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. Currency is better to be exchanged in banks. They usually open early, no later than at 9:00 am, and serve clients up to 14:00. Many exchange offices may work around the clock, but they usually offer less profitable exchange rate.
2. Travelers should not forget to follow basic safety precautions. Do not go for a walk to remote areas of the city, do not leave your belongings unattended, and do not forget to monitor your bags closely in public places in order to avoid becoming a victim of pickpockets.
3. When going for an excursion to temples and cathedrals of Valencia, make sure you pick up your clothes carefully. Tops must have sleeves, men should wear long pants, and women shouldn’t put on above knee-length skirts.
4. If you want to rent a car, you will need a driver's license of international standard and a small cash deposit, the amount of which depends on the model of vehicle you plan to rent. Persons under 21 as well as people, who received a driver's license less than a year ago, may be rejected to rent a car.
6. Smoking is prohibited in public places in Valencia. As a rule, there are special areas for smokers close to all public institutions and commercial centers. You can also select a table in a smocking or non-smocking hall in restaurants.
7. The cheapest way to make international phone calls is from special phone tubes, which can be found close to all transportation stops, cinemas and entertainment centers. You will need to purchase a special phone card to pay for your calls. These cards can be bought in post office or newsagent.
