A bespoke piece and a message from your connection to nature in Valencia

A Gentle Escape into Nature and Creativity in Valencia

If you’re looking to add a touch of serenity and personal reflection to your Valencia trip, this one-and-a-half-hour experience might just be what you need. It’s a thoughtfully curated session that combines a peaceful walk in the Parque Central Garden with a guided meditation, culminating in a personalized handmade artwork inspired by your connection to nature.

What really draws us to this experience are the sensory immersion in the garden’s plants and trees and the chance to receive a bespoke piece of art that captures your moment of connection. It’s perfect if you want more than just sightseeing, craving a quiet moment to reflect and create. That said, it’s not designed for children under 8, so it’s best suited for those seeking a calm, meaningful encounter rather than a high-energy tour.

One thing to keep in mind is that this experience is quite intimate—maximum of three people—which makes it very personal but also means you’ll want to book ahead. Also, since it’s a bespoke experience, you should expect some wait time (around two days) for your personalized artwork to be ready. Overall, if you’re drawn to art, mindfulness, or simply want a break from busy sightseeing, this would suit you well.

Exploring the Experience in Detail

Starting at the Ubik Café, the meeting point is conveniently located next to the Parque Central Garden. From there, the host will guide you into the lush surroundings, where you’ll get a chance to observe the diverse plants, flowers, and natural wonders that make this urban oasis special. The walk is not just about seeing but truly noticing and engaging with the living world around you.

The highlight of the experience is the guided meditation, which lasts about 10 minutes. Don’t worry if you’ve never meditated before—you’ll be gently led through a process designed to foster a deep sense of calm and connection. The focus is on a specific element—be it a plant, mineral, animal, or geometric form—helping you to feel more rooted and present.

Once the meditation wraps up, the real magic begins. The artist (Cathy Cocat, based in Paris and Valencia) will craft a personalized piece inspired by your encounter. This could be a drawing of your connection or a portrait linked to nature, depending on which creative option you choose. The artwork is presented on a wooden stand, ready to hang in your home, serving as a lasting reminder of your moment of serenity.

Along With your artwork, you’ll receive a personalized message—a reflection or insight inspired by your experience. This message aims to capture the essence of your connection and may offer a new perspective or a calming thought to carry with you.

Pricing options are straightforward: a €75 version includes the meditation, photography, and drawing, along with the message, while the €95 option features a portrait drawn alongside your connection to nature and your message. The choice depends on how much you want to personalize your keepsake.

What to Expect From the Schedule

The entire session lasts about 90 minutes, but be prepared for a slight wait for your artwork, as it takes around two days to complete. The timing is flexible—your host will arrange to deliver the piece at your convenience.

The experience is designed to be intimate and reflective, with a small group size (up to three people). This allows for a more personal touch, making it a perfect space to unwind and explore. It’s also wheelchair accessible and offered in three languages (English, French, Spanish), which broadens its accessibility.

Why Travelers Love It

Our review from a recent guest from Australia sums up the overall sentiment perfectly: “Unique and personal experience delivered outcomes way beyond a walk in the park. Cathy has an intuition to be marvelled and creativity beyond measure.” That praise highlights just how special this experience can be for those seeking a meaningful, artistic connection to nature.

Another reviewer appreciated the calm, reflective nature of the session, describing it as a timeless moment that left a lasting impact. Many note how the experience feels tailored to each person, with the host’s intuitive approach making the meditation and artwork deeply personal.

The Value of This Experience

While the cost might seem modest, the value lies in the personalized art and message, which are handcrafted and tailored specifically to you. It’s not a mass-produced souvenir, but a genuine, one-of-a-kind item that captures your moment of connection with nature. The quiet walk, meditation, and creative expression combine to offer a relaxing, restorative experience that’s worth the price if you’re looking for something thoughtful and memorable.

It’s not a typical tour—there’s no rushing or large group chaos. Instead, you’re invited into a calm space where you can truly pause, reflect, and create. If that sounds like a rare find during your busy trip, this might be a perfect addition.
