    Cancelled by operator at short notice!

    Cancelled the trip for no reason by email at short notice, but not cancelled on Viator app. Viator didn’t know what was going on and said not cancelled really. Phoned operator who said they had cancelled because of the weather, which was perfect! No refund as yet.

    Response from the operator: sorry for the inv¡convenience the payement has been refund already

    Would highly recommend the Ivan tour of the caves and nougat around Alicante. An enjoyable experience and well worth the

    The monastery of Faz was the most interesting stop on the journey. We had no idea that the relic they have was here in Alicante. Our guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout our experience making it all that more enjoyable! Also loved visiting the cave and the Turrón factory/museum and the little town of Busot and the Museum of Music they have there.

    Response from the operator: thanks a big pleasure

    Super good tour.

    Ivar was a very excellent narrator, he told us about the things we drove past and we got a great insight into the lives of the Spaniards. He talked about nougat production from the past to the present. We learned a lot about the caves.

    Exceeded Expectations!

    Hands down, this was probably the best private tour I have ever been on! Ivan is extremely knowledgeable and friendly! I learnt so much about Alicante and some history from Ivan. The Turron (nougat) museum was pretty interesting and I'm glad I did this tour because I probably would have never visited this museum and understood how Turron is different from Nougat (and actually better!). The caves were just amazing! Looking at the mountains, you wouldn't really think that there were these amazing caves. We also visited Buscot and walked up to the remains of the castle. There were stunning views from the top and Ivan explained the history behind the castles and how they were positioned and built. I really enjoyed this tour and I would probably visit Alicante again just to do more tours with Ivan. It was actually my birthday on the day that we did this tour and this tour made it so much more enjoyable! So thank you Ivan for an amazing birthday!

    Response from the operator: thank you so much !!! greetings

    Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alicante.

    How much does Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Alicante usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 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 Alicante is not rushed.

    Is Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Alicante, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide?

    +

    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 Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide?

    +

    Around 4 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 Alicante 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 Alicante and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide 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 Alicante 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 Alicante?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Alicante experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Alicante Paella Cooking Class, Tapas, Drinks & Central Market, Alicante Wine Tasting and Tapas Club, Canelobre Caves and Busot Tour from Alicante. 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 Alicante?

    +

    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 Alicante?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide?

    +

    Included: bottle of water; wifi on board; In-vehicle air conditioning; and tickets included. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 64 listed pickup locations in and around Alicante. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Guided Tour of Alicante with Certified Guide if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
