Excellent small group tour (12 people) with Francisco! He was very friendly and answered all of our questions. We started at the market, tasted some meat and cheese, then took a small bus to the top of the fortress, and then walked back down into the old town. Our last stop was a tapas and drink (choice of wine, sangria, beer, or sparkling water). Would highly recommend, everything was well organized.

The day was amazing. The guide was informative and had answers for any questions we had. The arrangement of pick up and drop off was easy as well. The whole experience is worth its money. We got the all the amazing towns around Benidorm as well some amazing off-road tracks. Thank you again.

Although we rather late Kamila waited for us and made us at ease straight away. The session was beautifully lead and was a great way to start our holiday. I would highly recommend and will be returning on our next holiday. Lisa and Luke x
