Description
Escape the city and explore Alicante’s countryside on a private day tour. Visit Guadalest Castle, swim in the Algar Waterfalls, and enjoy an optional wine tasting at a local estate.
Begin your journey with a scenic drive to Guadalest Castle and Valley, one of Spain’s most picturesque mountain villages. Perched high above the reservoir, the village offers breathtaking views, cobbled streets, and the chance to explore the castle ruins or visit one of several quirky local museums.
Continue to the Algar Waterfalls, a lush natural oasis where you can walk along shaded trails and swim in the crystal-clear pools. Entrance is optional and depends on how you’d like to spend your time—either relaxing in nature or just enjoying the scenic views.
Next, head to Bodegas Enrique Mendoza, a renowned local wine estate where you can enjoy an optional wine tasting and learn about Alicante’s winemaking tradition. The estate also offers beautiful views over the vineyards and surrounding countryside.
If you wish, your driver/guide can include a stop for lunch at a local mountain taverna, where you can enjoy regional dishes in a rustic setting with spectacular views.
