Itinerary

Receive a morning pickup from your cruise ship or any location in the Alicante area. Your group will be transported by private car or minivan with room for up to six guests.

You’ll start your Alicante excursion with a sightseeing overview. Check out city landmarks including the Santa Barbara Castle, the central market, Stars Square, and the bullring. Then head to the residential neighborhood of Santa Cruz, offering a glimpse of daily life for the city’s 335,000 inhabitants.

Continue the trip by getting a taste for some of Alicante’s historic architecture as you explore the city cathedral, constructed on the remains of former mosque, see the baroque-style town hall, and visit the Carbonell House, a modernist building that dates to 1924. You’ll also have time to take a stroll on the “Explanada de España,” a pedestrian walkway that runs along the Alicante shoreline.

At the end of your outing you’ll be transported back to your original starting point.
