Trying the various locally produced wines and tapas was a real treat. Silvia has designed a thoughtful tour at an easy pace with a focus on local. The market was a highlight but the other stops were excellent too. Thank you!

Silvina was our host and she was amazing! She was friendly, interesting and engaging. We learned lots about the history of Alicante and also what it is like to live in present day Alicante. We visited the food market which was incredible and we enjoyed the most authentic food and delicious wines. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend it.

wonderful private tour with a very knowledgeable, pleasant and interesting guide

Eleanor_M, Mar 2022

wonderful wine, tapas and other Alicante treats; loved tasting the delicious local delicacies that I would never have dreamed of ordering myself, pairing the tapas with local wines, learning how to combine the tastes as the locals do (for maximum impact and enjoyment). A fantastic tour to do early in the holiday as you will be sure to visit the various eateries, bars and vermuteria again! Yum!

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Eleonor: Happy to know you enjoyed the experience. Mission accomplished. Thanks again for choosing our local experience in Alicante.

Alicante centre

Patrick_L, Jul 2022

Notre guide connaît très bien Alicante et ses superbes endroits. Nous avons découvert un peu plus la ville. J’aurai pu mettre un 5 étoiles si nous avions eu la visite en français car parfois c’était difficile à suivre cependant, nous recommandons! Nous referons appelle à cette expérience avec notre famille ou nos amis. Merci de cette découverte

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Patrick thanks for your review. It was my pleasure to spend 3 hour with you and your beautiful family. We will provide the experience in more languages soon, just spanish and english at the moment . We would like to see you again soon in Alicante.
