Day Trip to Guadalest, Altea and the Algar Waterfalls from Benidorm

4.2/5
24 reviews

Depart on a day trip from Benidorm to discover the picturesque towns of Guadalest and Altea, as well as the stunning Fuentes del Algar waterfalls. Setting off from Benidorm, you'll head to your first destination: the Fuentes del Algar waterfalls. This natural wonderland is designated a Protected Wet Zone and boasts spectacular cascades that contribute significantly to the area's biodiversity. You'll have plenty of time here to take a refreshing dip and soak up the beauty of your surroundings.

Next, you'll travel a short distance to Guadalest, renowned as one of Spain's most attractive medieval towns. A guided walking tour will enlighten you about the town's rich history. Marvel at the Castillo de San José, an impressive fortress nestled amongst the mountains and offering panoramic vistas. As you stroll through the town, take the chance to visit a variety of fascinating museums, such as the Microminiatures Museum, the Microgigante Museum, the Salt and Pepper Shakers Museum, and the Ethnological Museum.

The final part of your excursion will lead you to Altea, a coastal gem on the Costa Blanca. Accompanied by your guide, wander through the cobbled streets of the old town and admire the white houses adorned with beautifully decorated balconies. Once the tour has finished, you can continue exploring at your own pace. Seek out scenic viewpoints, stroll along the beach, and sample the local cuisine while enjoying the views of the Mediterranean Sea.

    Erg leuke excursies. Hele aardige reisleiding. Gezellig, grappig, zorgzaam. Heel veel verteld. Opstapplaats bus in Benidorm wat beter aangeven. We hadden geluk met het mooie weer en rustige periode half februari.

    Danny, the tour guide was brilliant. Guadalest and Altea were beautiful relaxing places to visit. We weren't too keen on Algar waterfalls due to the absolute huge amount of people there which spoils the experience. On a side note the pick up point in Benidorm is outside the Hotel la Estación which is opposite the police station. Just wait on the side of the road and the bus will arrive.
