Lovely day out - The tour guide was friendly and helpful. Coah driver was excellent. Guadalest was a bit of a climb but well worth it for the view and sense of achievement. Lovely restaurant on the way down. Algar waterfalls were lovely and cooling - take watershoes as it is very stony in the waterways. Well worth a visit and being part of a tour meant no parking hassles.

Love Guadalest ❤️ - Had the lovely Belén and Fabian guide us on this amazing tour . A great guide and driver . Thoroughly enjoyed the town of Guadalest and the ruins of Castle. Beautiful little town . We progressed to Algar which is beautiful but for us it was very very overcrowded with people . Would recommend the trip but be aware Algar is jam packed with people in afternoon so you won't be disappointed .

Good opportunity - Good opportunity to see two places in the same day, castle wasn't crowded by waterfalls were crowded due to touristic peak.

I recommend 100% - Great day trip! Guadalest is a very cute small village in the mountains, something unique for sure. The fontains of Algar are a natural beauty. The guide was extremely nice giving details and explanations about everything, you can see she loves the places where she lives. I recommend 100%

Guadalest + Fonts of Algar - Booked this for my partners birthday. Was a brilliant day out with a very friendly guide and great coach driver!! Guadalest is a beautiful little village in the mountains with equally beautiful sights and nice spots to eats. The Fonts of Algar are also an awesome place to see and the water was very refreshing on a hot day. Certainly would go again!!

Beautiful sites but wish we were not rushed! - It was a great trip for our family. Guadalest is beautiful but we skipped the museum because we wanted to look around the village and have lunch. Time was very limited (1 hr and 30mins). And Algar Fountains was only 2 hours. We missed pretty much all of the fountains because we stayed in one area to swim and then we thought we were lost and had to figure out how to get out to catch the bus in time. It was stressful. If only the tour was longer, we would have enjoyed it more. I’d recommend 2.5 to 3 hours in Guadalest and 4 hours at the falls, to really experience both sites.

Great day out - Great trip to a lovely little mountain village and the waterfalls. Plenty of time for a look around the village and to have some lunch. Don't miss out on the 'dolls house' museum as it will blow your mind! Also time at the waterfalls for a bracing swim so don't forget your cossies!

Great bus trip to Guadalest and Algar-foss - Bus trip to Guadalest and Algar Falls. A little collective show in Guadalest, the rest in private time. Great view from the fortress. There were too many people in Algar. Lovely cooling bath in the waterfalls. The guide spoke Spanish and English, and told the story along the way.

Not a good experience - Everything went wrong. They didn't show our tickets but it was for Alicante instead of Benidorm. The bus broke down and it took them almost an hour to get a new one and we had to wait in the heat. I could say more but there is no need.
