Description

Discover not only Alicante’s famous landmarks but also a quieter, hidden side of the city that few visitors get to see. Led by an official local guide, this relaxed walk blends history, legends and everyday life.

We’ll explore the Explanada de España, the elegant Town Hall Square, Casa Carbonell, and the Basilica of Santa María, then leave the crowds behind as we wander through charming backstreets and up to the Santa Cruz quarter — a peaceful hillside neighborhood filled with whitewashed houses, colorful flowerpots, and stunning views. Don’t miss the Blue Pots House, one of Alicante’s most photogenic corners.

Along the way, we’ll stop at a family-run nougat (turrón) workshop, crafting this sweet treat for over 140 years and six generations, where you’ll enjoy a free tasting of artisan turrón and local liqueur.
(Available only on morning tours, except Sundays and public holidays.)

The tour ends at the lively Central Market, the beating heart of local life — a perfect place to keep exploring Alicante’s colors, aromas, and flavors on your own.

A perfect mix of history, charm, and local flavor — discover the real Alicante, beyond the postcards.

Natalja was a great guide! Very enthusiastic and informative tour with a lot of insights, nicely presented from her view as local being proud of the city and its inheritance.

Great tour, with a great guide !!!

I did the tour twice in one month (with different group of friends) and both times I had the pleasure of having Maria as a guide. She can tell you about the (history of the) city with such humor and passion, that will make you laugh and listen to her. That way you will learn a lot about the city of Alicante. Maria speaks great English. I could understand her very well. I would highly recommend going on this tour if you are in Alicante and want to learn more about the city.
