Itinerary
Incredible exhibition of doll houses and miniature nativity scenes created by D. Antonio Marco throughout his entire life. Every detail is a fragment of the one made to scale, it is unforgivable not to visit it.
Source dedicated to the province of Alicante and its famous writer Gabriel Miró. This natural water source has as many pipes as there are towns in the province of Alicante.
The most incredible and largest private collection of salt and pepper shakers from all eras. Curiously, its founding owner brought this collection from Tennessee (USA) itself.
Incredible stop along the way is a unique place on the Costa Blanca with waterfalls and waterfalls where you can cool off.
Inglés interesting modernist house where the famous Alicante writer would spend many days and where a museum has been made in his honor, focused on his relationship with Polop where he spent countless summers.

Everyone pleased with the trip and enjoyed. Ivan was very helpful and had good knowledge about the area which enhanced our awareness
The tour was very good, we visited 2 very beautiful areas and our guide Ivan was very knowledgeable of the area. I would highly recommend the tour, however allow at least 5 hours or more to be safe. Our group had arranged an earlier pickup time at the cruise terminal and unfortunately we got off to a late start. Our travels happen to take placeduring Holy Week and some roads were closed and traffic was a nightmare. Ivan did his best getting us back to port, and luckily we made it about 5 minutes past our backnon board time and the ship was waiting. We all learned from this experience to allow extra time for traffic issues and unforseen circumstances. Great tour, but not one for a short day in port.
Ey thanks for your opinion Usually this tour is 5 hours or even 5:30h we make it a little bit shorter but is a big risk to move from such a long distance and need to be at port so early. Anyway we did it.
Great tour but operator was late picking us up due to traffic. Also returned us right at 2:30 the all aboard time. Also due to traffic. Ivan was very personable and knowledgeable having done tours now for 26 years. Van was new and comfortable. Small group (7) made it nice. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much Hope you enjoy it the door even of the traffic so complicated days in elegant everything going on in the same place the same date But we did it
This was a perfect tour for anyone but especially from the cruise ship! Ivan was fantastic and went above and beyond! He added special treats and hidden gems that delighted and pleasantly surprised us! He got us back to the ship in perfect time and never made us feel rushed. The falls were beautiful and Guadelest was awesome! We highly recommend this tour!!
Our guide for the day was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the area. Very easy to find then at the port and great communication ahead of time. They were very accommodating for our wide range of ages and accessibility of the members of our group.
thank you very much is always a pleasure try to make happy our customers, but is even better te have the reviews that help us to continue on that way.
A magnificent excursion with a top class guide. He made us discover beautiful places and fairy places. We highly recommend it for its patience and especially for its culture on Spanish history. He speaks very good French and takes the time to explain to you many stories and anecdotes of the place. Thank you to him for this great time shared.
merci beacoup cést tout un plaisir
We arranged to be collected from Alicante airport and Ivan was there to greet us. He was very hospitable and knowledgeable of the area. The tour was laid back and tailored to our wishes. Guadalest was beautiful and even the visit to the mo pasture dolls house museum was worth visiting not what we expected and very intriguing! The waterfalls were lovely. (Mosquito repellent may be required and also beach shoes recommended) Ivan then delivered us safely to our accommodation as pre arranged. Thank you for a lovely day and introducing us to the sights of Alicante region. Would recommend if someone has early landing and a late check in for accommodation but also as a lovely day out!
Thanks a lot to let me surprise you !
Ivan was great! He met us near the cruise terminal and was very informative! Took us to different places near Alicante that you wouldn't be able to experience on a larger tour.
Thanks a lot, Kathy. It has been a pleasure to try to make you discover this corner of Spain. I hope your friends's back is better I wish you a very nice trip crossing the Mediterranean see Remember ALICANTE is now your home come back whenever you want
Wow! What a beautiful way to see this area. I can’t say enough about our wonderful guide Ivan. He was so knowledgeable, kind, and professional. We got to see so much in the 5 hours we were with him - and custom to our interests. We visited a small village to see breathtaking panoramic views from a church/old cemetery; museum of Gabriel Moro, and Los Chorros fountains. Then we went onto a beautiful more lively area to see the fort/castle. Lastly we went to the beautiful waterfalls - learning about the culture, foliage and history along the way. Ivan was spectacular and knows the area SO well! We felt like we had the benevolent king of the tour operators as our guide because he knows everyone and you can tell he is loved and well-respected just by his interactions with his peers. We feel so lucky to have spent half a day with such a kind and knowledgeable individual! Don’t miss this one - the unexpected best tour of our trip. Thanks Ivan!
Wow incredible commentary thank you so much I just tried to do my job with empathy adapting always the tour to your interests Also I have to tell you that you make easy to do it cause I felt like being friends from the early beginning of our contact.
