Discover Elche: The Oasis with 3 World Heritage Sites

Did you know that Elche is the only city in Spain with 3 UNESCO recognitions? I'm Francisco, a student of Journalism and Audiovisual Communication, and I promise you a tour that you'll thoroughly enjoy.
We'll uncover the secrets of the largest palm grove in Europe with lots of rhythm, good vibes, and finding the best angles for your photos!

What wonders will we discover?

  Municipal Park and Palm Grove: We'll breathe peace in our 1st Heritage Site. I'll tell you its origin and we'll delve into our beautiful oasis.

  Altamira Palace and Calahorra Tower: We'll travel to the Islamic past among kings and fortresses.

  Basilica of Santa Maria: The majestic setting of our 2nd Heritage Site: the thrilling Mystery of Elche!

  Old Quarter: We'll stroll looking for those boastful details and secret corners that most overlook.

  La Glorieta: The social epicenter of Elche, perfect for unveiling the mysteries of our iconic Lady of Elche.

  Plaza de Baix and Town Hall: We'll greet the mythical Calendura and Calendureta atop the clock.

  Pusol Project: I'll tell you about our 3rd Heritage Site, the great guardian of our traditional memory.

What to bring? Comfortable shoes, water, and a desire to have a great time. I'll take care of the optimism, the stories, and being your photographer.

Reserve your spot and fall in love with Elche!

Guiding since 2026
Welcome to Elche! I'm Paco, a true Elche native and your next favorite guide. 😉 I'm an optimistic, hardworking, and energetic guy. I'm currently studying Journalism and Audiovisual Communication at Miguel Hernández University, which is why I dedicate myself to researching and sharing the best stories. And believe me, Elche is full of legends, culture, and special places that I can't wait to show you. Besides the history of my city, I'm passionate about sports, 80s music, and photography. In fact, I'd be delighted to be your personal photographer during the tour, visiting the most beautiful spots in the Palmeral and the historic center. Pack comfortable shoes and bring your enthusiasm for a great time! I look forward to discovering the treasures of Elche with you! 🌴
