Wonderful tour of the building and castle. Joel was very friendly and informative. Plus we were able to access restricted areas that are typically closed to the public. Highly recommend.

Exciting visit. Smart with audio guide in Spanish, English, German, French and Polish. We paid 9€ per adult and 7€ for each of the children of 15 and 17 years. Visit the arena in the morning/afternoon, as it probably closes at 14.30. It's worth the money.
We had a fantastic private tour of the bullring and castle with Joel. Joel was such an wonderful guide and always providing interesting information about the 2 sites visited. Joel structured the pace to suit us especially as it was a hot day. It would have to have been one of the best tours we have done and could not recommend it or Joel more highly.
A must if you want to learn the full history of Alicante castle and bullring. Our guide David was so so knowledgeable about both subjects…and on the history of Spain. Thank you so much David from Peter & Jane. Remember if you are ever in Ireland, visit Kerry
