Great time - Maria was very knowledgable and was able to convey complex history in both English and Spanish. Thank you for the great tour :) Guadalest and Altea are both great and worth the visit

This was such a lovely... - This was such a lovely day and tour! Guide Javier and the driver were very professional and informative, definitely learned lots! Altea and Guadalest were both stunning. Perhaps a little more time in Altea compared to Guadalest would have been preferred as so many nice spots for a drink and lots of shops to explore in Altea! But Guadalest was absolutely stunning. Highly recommend.

Stunning places to visit. Perfect day out to see some Spanish culture. - This is a really well aranged trip. Javier our tour guide was very informative. Good sense of humour and attentive. Oscar our driver negoates roads and tight turns fantasticly. The coach is spotless with air con. Both places are stunning to visit. Both have uneven paths and stairs to negotiate. But very manageable. Javier would walk us through the towns talking history then we have free time. All is appropriately timed. Really great trip.

Well worth it - It was a well organised trip. We were able to spend around 2 hours in guadalest, then 2 hours in altea, which felt like a good amount of time in each. Our guide Nuria was lovely :)

Guadalest and Altea amazing day - We recently took a group tour to Guadalest and Altea, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Jose Maria Albert, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history of each place to life with engaging stories and clear explanations. Jessica, our bus driver, did an excellent job navigating the long journey safely and smoothly. Even though it was a full and busy day, the trip was very well planned, perfectly coordinated, and truly enjoyable throughout. Their professionalism and teamwork made the entire experience both entertaining and worthwhile. Highly recommend this tour!

Very enjoyable trip - Guadalest is a very picturesque village and even though it was cloudy, it was still worth going. Altea was also really lovely.

Worthwhile trip from Alicante - Very nice experience. Particularly enjoyed Guadalest for the beauty, the museums and the lunch we had. Altea was ok - mostly shopping, but it was pretty. I would have done the Guadalest with the waterfall tour - but the weather was not great for that.

The guide was too... - The guide was too authorisation. Obsessed with the schedule and guest joining the WhatsApp group, whereby in actual fact it was not needed. Ask guest instead of insisting on joining a WhatsApp group where strangers can view their personal numbers.
