Great tour. It has a good balance of stops for sightseeing. The tour guide was very knowledgable and adaptable to the individual tourist. All of the castles are worth seeing and the wine tasting was lots of fun - they have a nice shop at the winery so it's a good place to get some souvenirs.

Unfortunately our private car didn’t show up. We waited 45 mins. We made numerous calls to iVantours and no answer. The team at Viator. We’re wonderful and did E they could to try and help us. I would definitely use Viator again but will not book an Ivan tours excursion. We still have not heard from iVantours not received an explanation as to why our driver didn’t come

Ivan was very knowledgeable and provided good commentary on the tour. Made extra stops for photo ops. Recommend lunch stop for this tour as it was mid day.

Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. I took my 80 yo mother (she is very mobile) and she had a brilliant time. The guide was so informative and interesting and looked after us so well.

My mom needs help but wanted to go on this tour and I was unable to go with her. The guide drove far to pick her up, took her mobility scooter, and helped her all along the tour. Mom loved the sights and had a wonderful time! I highly recommend the tour and guide

Sam_E

I had booked the tour as a birthday present to my friend travelling with me. I had paid and gotten all the confirmations from Viator but on the day of the trip the tour operator doesn’t show up. I call the tour company who say they never got the booking from Viator. No apology and no tour was the very unfortunate result…

Lovely tour of the countryside surrounding Alicante, with a knowledgeable and friendly guide. Just the time we wanted at the sites visited and good wine made it an excellent morning.
