I’m grateful to the tour guide, Isaac. The tour started and ended with delicious food, which completely grabbed my stomach. We walked through various locations listening to the history. Without his explanation, I ended up knowing nothing about Alicante. Hands down, it was more than I paid for.

Very knowledgeable guide with interesting stories about the local area, fascinating insight into the history of the area. The time flew by as it was so interesting

Great way to get an overview of the city. Our guide was well informed and a lot of fun!! I met other solo travelers who have become my friends.

Carlos was amazing and the tour was very fun! Would definitely recommend.

Excellent guide, knowledgeable and pleasant. Recommend this tour
