Tour company was dishonest about current situation with the waterfalls
The waterfalls were not running during our excursion and the tour guide purposefully didn't tell us until halfway through tour. It felt very dishonest as we didnt have all the information heading into the tour. We wasted half of our day (still paid full price) to sit in a hot Cafe until the bus left. I requested a refund through the tour company and they said no. Do not recommended.

Nice bit of culture
Went on this tour with family after previously going with my partner with a different operator Tour was informative but I found the guide walking you around etc explaining things left you with no time to look about Previous tour we were told all info on the bus and left to wander at our own leisure able to visit the museums and lunch and shops , this tour that was nyon impossible as we were following her and she was giving the talks at designated areas Again it was informative but I rathered the more freedom tour

Great Trip
Great trip, well organised, instructions were clear and plenty of free time both in Guadalest and at the waterfalls. Guide Javier was very informative, we learned a lot from him about the local area. Nacho is an excellent driver on tight mountain road bends! Good value for money. Thanks.

From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Benidorm.
How much does From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $51 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Benidorm usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Benidorm is not rushed.
Is From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 248 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Benidorm, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour?
+
Around 87 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Benidorm can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Benidorm and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Alicante/Benidorm: Guadalest & Algar Waterfalls Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Benidorm within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Benidorm?
+
On Outty we rank every Benidorm experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kayak and snorkel excursion to Cova Tallada, Benidorm Bike Tour with Hotel Pick up, Costa Blanca Full-Day Off Road Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Benidorm?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Benidorm?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
