Hello, I'm Sergio, an official tour guide and a lover of my land. I am currently carrying out my guided tour project Caragol Tours🐌, since after wandering around the Spanish geography a thousand and one times I decided to return and settle back in my city. As they say: "the earth calls", so in my tours I assure you a tour with a different vision and made from the heart. Still, to finish convincing you, I will tell you that I highly doubt that you will get bored during my tours, but if so, I challenge you to tell me and I invite you to a lie (On the tour I tell you what it is). Greetings and I hope to meet you soon!

Tour description

Discover Alcoy in a different way, from another point of view.
In this tour we are going to get to know one of the most complicated periods in the recent history of Spain and the city of Alcoy.
We will find out how the civil war (1936-1939) came to the city and why it was bombed up to 7 times.

I will only tell you that that time marked a before and after in the Alcoy that we know today.

On the tour we will visit the following points:
(Don't stay with this alone, it's a small summary, we'll see much more..)

🔴I church Sant Mauro and Sant Francesc
🔴P laza de Ferrándiz and Carbonell.
🔴 IVAM (Old Monte Piedad-Savings Bank)

As I told you above it is a summary, on the tour we will discover many more things that will not leave you indifferent.
