Recommend! - Isaac was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, personable, superb English. Whether you’re in Alicante for a day or more this walking tour will provide you with the best information on history and customs, and will additionally be very enjoyable. Isaac was happy to answer all questions, engage in conversation, and he provided traveler tips on seeing and dining in both Alicante and the outskirts, eg taking the tram when heading to places like Altea. We recommend this walking tour!

Great tour to start of our time in Alicante. Thank you Paco! - We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Paco on this tour. He knows so much about Alicante, the regional of Spain where it is located and the local food, plants and climate. We had a great time overall. A great tour to take when you first arrive in Alicante to learn about the city overall before you spend more time there.
