Description

Discover the life of Alicante on a vibrant and history-filled experience with our eTukTuk sightseeing tour. In about an hour, you'll explore the city's most emblematic, curious, and fascinating corners, combining culture, mystery, stunning views, and details that only locals know about. The tour begins at the elegant Casa Carbonell, an icon of Alicante's architecture and the gateway to the historic center. From there, we enter the Town Hall Square, where the ancient cannons and the famous clock mark the pulse of the city and its celebrations. Then we visit the enigmatic Plaza de los Árboles Viejos, a place with a dark past where public executions took place and which still retains echoes of those times. Next stop is the poetic Plaza Gabriel Miró, an oasis of calm and beauty dedicated to the famous Alicante writer. We'll stroll along the iconic and colorful Calle de las Setas, full of fantasy, urban legends, and a popular history that leaves no one indifferent. Right afterwards, we'll head to Alicante's Teatro Principal, where you'll learn about its centuries-old history, its mysteries, and its role in the city's cultural life. We'll go up to the picturesque Santa Cruz Quarter, the soul of the Old Town. Its cobblestone alleys, houses decorated with flowers, and sea views will transport you to another era. Nearby, we'll stop at the majestic Basilica of Santa María, the oldest in Alicante, where an image of the Virgin Mary adorns its side façade, in a location that is as intriguing as it is symbolic. What's more, entry to the basilica is free, making it a must-see. We continue our ascent to the imposing Santa Bárbara Castle, but before arriving you'll learn about the hidden secrets of the route: the Monkey's Face in the rock, the street lamps with carved faces, and the underground history of tunnels that connected houses in times gone by. You'll also see the charming Casita de las Macetas Azules, a photogenic gem halfway through the tour. Once at Santa Bárbara Castle, the panoramic views will take your breath away. From above, you can see Alicante in all its splendor, with the sea, the harbor, and the Old Town at your feet. The descent takes us to Plaza de España, followed by the iconic Plaza de los Luceros, the heart of the Hogueras festivities and the city's nerve center. To top it all off, the sightseeing tour ends in front of the beautiful Playa del Postiguet, where the blue of the Mediterranean meets the living history of Alicante.
