What to expect

Benidorm is the tourist destination par excellence in the province of Alicante, but you can discover other unique places in the surrounding area.

First stop Guadalest. You will leave aside the blue of the sea to marvel at the colors of the Guadalest Reservoir, the main protagonist of this area.

The town has been declared a historical site and an Asset of Cultural Interest for its rich heritage. Enjoy a walking tour with the expert guide to learn about the most relevant places and historical data and, then, you will have free time to enjoy the city's museums.

Halfway between the sea and the mountains is the quiet town of Altea. If you are looking for Mediterranean essence, it offers you six km of coastline, among which its coves and stone beaches stand out.

There is no postcard worth its salt that ignores the great dome of the Church of Consuelo, a key point in the old town of Altea. With the white houses, the cobbled streets and the blue tones of the sea appearing in every nook and cranny, a walk through Altea is a gift. You'll explore its streets on a guided walking tour before having free time for lunch and continue discovering it at your own pace.

In the last part of the excursion we will visit the Fuentes del Algar, a fascinating natural area made up of spectacular waterfalls that provide great biodiversity to the environment. You will have free to take a bath and enjoy this place however you want.

Valencia visit with panoramic bus and guided walking tours

Valencia isn't just culture – it's also an enticing place to dine out and hit the shops. On this full day tour, you'll have the chance to see the sights on a panoramic bus ride, then get the lowdown on a guided walking tour of the heart of the city. Martí, one of our local guides, says, ‘Valencia has really come out of the shadows in recent decades, and now stands shoulder to shoulder with Barcelona and Madrid in terms of art, culture and cuisine. Our old town, one of the largest in Europe, is packed with sights, with the Silk Exchange shining brightest of all.' You'll start off with a panoramic bus tour for an overview of the city and an explanation of some of the major sights. Once you leave the bus, you'll set off on a guided walking tour around the city. Your expert local guide will show you around, sharing local insight into the history and explaining some of the highlights. When the tour is over, you'll have free time to explore further, grab a bite to eat or browse the shops.The streets around Calle Colon, a modern boulevard, boast all kinds of stores – from global high street brands to luxury goods shops as well as the latest in technology. There are also smaller, original boutiques selling haute couture clothing. Martí adds, ‘If all that shopping tires you out, pop over to the art nouveau Colon Market. It's evolved into an epicurean food hall and is a go-to, not just for the nibbles but for the design of the building itself. It's a good spot to take a break at one of the cafés.'
