Step Inside History at the largest immersive Titanic exhibition in the world
Moving far beyond traditional museum displays, this award-winning experience combines stunning historical accuracy with spectacular modern technology to transport you directly onto the deck of the world's most famous ocean liner.
What to Expect
- The VR Experience & 360° Room: Put on a virtual reality headset and walk through the grand spaces of the ship. Explore the iconic Grand Staircase, stand on the majestic decks, and look out over the ocean just as the passengers did in 1912.
- Deep Sea Simulation: Use cutting-edge digital technology to "dive" 4,000 metres beneath the North Atlantic and explore the haunting beauty of the shipwreck site as it rests on the ocean floor today.
- Interactive History: Walk through beautifully recreated first-class and lower-deck rooms, see real artifacts, and interact with spaces enhanced by artificial intelligence to learn the true, personal stories of the passengers and crew.
This fabulous day out includes return bus travel and English language tour of the Titanic Experience. After the experience, our bus will drop us off in Valencia city with time for lunch, shopping or sightseeing.
It's just 26€ for u3a members, and 30€ for guests. So you're welcome to bring friends, family or visitors too.

An upgrade for history buffs
If you're a fan of history, then we can offer you a special upgrade.
Right next door, you can explore the historical, architectural, and human history of the Bombas Gens complex itself, and see how it has transformed from a medieval estate, to an industrial factory, and finally into a digital arts centre.
Key Highlights of the Tour
- The Historical Layers: The tour takes you through several centuries of history preserved within the same grounds, including a 15th-century medieval cellar, the Art Déco industrial factory site, and a preserved Spanish Civil War air-raid shelter.
- The Human Focus: Rather than just architectural facts, the tour uses historical documentation and visual support (via tablets) to tell the personal stories of the people who worked and lived there—from medieval peasants and factory foundry workers to those who sought safety in the shelter.
- The Secret Garden: The experience concludes with a visit to the site's modern Mediterranean garden, which features a permanent water installation by renowned sculptor Cristina Iglesias.
The upgraded tour (in English) is just 6€ per person.
If you stay on for the extra tour, then you'll need to make your own way to the city centre to get the bus home later. But it's just a quick 15m trip on Bus 28, and costs just 2€ contactless.
