Guadalest & Altea: The Perfect Contrast of Mountain & Sea

#1 Best Seller & Travellers' Choice

Overview Experience the ultimate contrast of the Costa Blanca in a single journey with our most popular tour. This experience combines the whitewashed, seaside charm of Altea—the "Dome of the Mediterranean"—with the dramatic mountain history of Guadalest. It is designed for travelers who want to maximize their time, discovering two of Spain’s most beautiful villages without the stress of planning logistics.

What to Expect Leave the map behind and enjoy a seamless drive through the Alicante countryside. You will explore the cobbled streets of Altea’s old town, famous for its blue-tiled church and panoramic sea views. Then, we ascend into the mountains to Guadalest, a medieval fortress village perched on a granite pinnacle. You will have quality time to explore the history, museums, and breathtaking valley views, far from the rush of mass tourism.

Highlights

• Altea Old Town: Guided walk through the most picturesque viewpoints of the Mediterranean coast.

• Guadalest Fortress: Exclusive access to the historic mountain village and its castle.

• Scenic Drive: Enjoy the landscape transition from the coast to the sierra.

• Comfort & Efficiency: See the top two destinations in Alicante in one relaxed day.

Guest Profile Ideal for couples, families, and culture seekers who want to see it all. The tour involves walking on cobblestones (Altea) and inclines (Guadalest), so a moderate level of mobility is required. Not recommended for wheelchair users due to the historic nature of the streets.
