Alicante: Stories, Secrets & Sweet Tastes
Tour description
Join us to discover not only Alicante’s most iconic landmarks, but also its hidden corners — the ones where real life still flows quietly behind the crowds.
We’ll explore the heart of the old town, where every corner has a story to tell. From the elegant Town Hall Square and the seaside Explanada de España, to narrow lanes that reveal traces of wars, faith and resilience, this walk offers a complete portrait of the city.
You’ll see the Basilica of Santa María, the Central Market, and the lively port, but also wander up the hillside into the Santa Cruz quarter, the most picturesque area of Alicante. Its whitewashed houses, blue flowerpots and stunning views of the castle make the gentle climb worth every step — it’s here that Alicante shows its most authentic face. And hidden among its narrow streets, we’ll find the charming Blue Pots House — one of Alicante’s most photogenic and beloved spots. 💙
To end the experience, we’ll visit a family-run turrón (nougat) workshop, where this delicious tradition has been handmade for more than 140 years and six generations. There, you’ll enjoy a free tasting of artisan turrón and local liqueur, a perfect way to taste the essence of Alicante. 🍬
(Except Sundays and public holidays.)
More than a simple walk, this is a journey through Alicante’s history, everyday life and local flavor — relaxed, insightful and full of Mediterranean warmth.
Come and discover the city as we locals know it: bright, proud and irresistibly sweet. 🌞
