This was one of our best tours! Helena was not only knowledgeable on the story of Alicante but she was so passionate about the history that she made it a fun, lively and an amazing experience for our family. She was very helpful with her recommendations and we enjoyed every single minute of our tour. We would recommend her and this tour 100%.

Really good sightseeing with Lidia who was very nice, informative and knowledgeable. She was smiling and very positive and answered all our questions very well! She was also very flexible when we asked her to reduce the guided tour with one hour because of the heat, and within the 2 hours left we we saw the most important of Alicante.

We’ve had a lot of fun with Ula. She have told us everything about the history of the castle and made time for instagrammabale pictures. Afterwards she showed us every place worth to wine or dine and she felt what type of people we are. She die so good, we also asked if she was free for the night to join us. Thank you Ula, for showing us beautiful Alicante!

Jorge Martinez was outstanding! He tailored our tour to what we wanted to see. Plenty of bathroom breaks! Very helpful in providing tips on where to go and what to eat. Not enough nice things to say!

Ula, my guide was excellent! We had a great rapport, she shared the finer secrets of Alicante and it was very welcoming. She asked the right questions so that my tour was for me. I trend away from the touristy things and prefer to see how the local people live, what it would be like to live as opposed to just visiting. Ula was able to answer all my questions and show me the layout of the city, and point out the various districts and what they have to offer from on top of the Castle. I would HIGHLY recommend Ula, and a private tour, if you're traveling alone, couple, or small family.

Ula was very nice and knows a lot about the castle and the history of Alicante as she is from here. She also speaks many languages so it makes her an even better tour guide to work with almost anyone. Love this city even more after being with her. She was also accommodating to your interests

This is our first visit to Alicante and, after this morning's guided tour, we love Alicante! We came to Alicante to take part in the geocaching Mega event, GeoAlicante 2019. We arrived on the 23rd April and this morning, we met Ana Linares from Quality Guided Tours. Ana is friendly, knowledgeable, and has excellent English and delivered one of the best private guided tours that we have experienced after travelling to all five continents. The tour started at 0930 when we met Ana at Casa Carbonell. We visited the Postiguet Beach where she set the agenda for our tour and then walked to the elevator which goes up to Santa Barbara Castle. At the top of the castle, we walked to the upper enclosure, “La Torreta”, which is where we found the keep and the most ancient fortress remains dating largely from the 14th century. Here we took some great images of Alicante. We then started our descent through the mid-level enclosure, which is home to the most important buildings built in the 16th century and continued to the lower enclosure which dates from the 18th century. All through our descent, Ana gave a detailed description of everything we were experiencing. Having descended through the steep streets of the Santa Cruz district we had a surprising and delightful visit to the Hogueras Museum, followed by the Town Hall and the San Nicolás Co-Cathedral. We ended up in the Explanada de España in front of the beautiful Casa Carbonell. Highly recommended without reservation *****

Ana was a fabulous tour guide for us in Alicante. She was friendly and incredibly helpful with all our questions on Alicante. I had booked her for a group of 12 of us for my birthday weekend in Alicante and did not have to worry about a thing once the reservation was made. She was professional, on-time, informative and a lot of fun to be around. I highly recommend her to anyone going to Alicante. You will be sure to have a fantastic time and trip!

Vanessa, our tour guide, was very kind and knowledgeable... willing to take pictures for us at any time. She also gave us great advice for places to eat and other essentials. It was very enjoyable and interesting. Would definitely recommend for anyone who is new to Alicante.
