Waterfalls and castles - Our experience was amazing Raquel was engaging and informative great history. The views in both locations were fabulous we loved the area by the Palait de Guadalest. Loads of cute restaurants and stores away from the main parking area

Lovely scenery, good day out - Really pretty spots to visit on a day trip out of Alicante or Benidorm! The guide was the best I've ever had on a trip like this, he was super organised, professional and friendly. The village and the springs are lovely, the only thing to note is that if you do not intend to swim at the springs, there is nothing to do for the alloted two hours except go to a bar/cafe, as the walking trail part of the area is very short. Still a lovely spot to spend time though and fab for swimming!

Beautiful day - well worth it - Very well organised and enjoyable trip. The coach is very well driven. The Guadalest village is delightfully quaint with beautiful views. The waterfalls are amazing. Xavier, our guide, was very enthusiastic and gave us lots of information about the history of the area. I fell asleep on the way home! Thank you very much for a wonderful day

Convenient and fun. - Javi made the trip enjoyable and fun. The places were good. If you want to avoid driving from Alicante or Benidorm and chill on a coach to get to places, this day trip is a great option. On time pickup, departures and arrivals. Regular communication over WhatsApp. Overall convenient and fun.

So pleased we visited - Absolutely amazing day. Picked up by coach outside the hotel. Very friendly tour guide on the coach. We stopped at a Lovely village and was given lots of great information. Then onto the waterfalls. Stunning and great fun. It was 17 degrees in the water but that did not stop us going in to swim. Amazing experience. Very pleased we visited. If someone has mobility issues this is not a place for them unfortunately. Lots of steep steps.

Great day! - Great day!! Thank you Ivan for all the explanations given, and your kindness. The town of Guadalest is wonderful and the river Algar really nice to chill and relax. Would do it again without thinking twice.

Overall a nice day - Overall we enjoyed the tour. We departed from Alicante and picked up 5 people from Benidorm. I wish the tour went straight to Guadalest. Guadalest was nice especially if you have never been to a quaint mountain village. I wasn’t expecting the waterfalls to be so commercialized. I thought it would be a more natural setting. It was very crowded and hard to take photos without others. I think off season would be a better time to visit. I did enjoy getting into the refreshing water! Bring water shoes.

Beautiful town with a view of a deep blue reservoir, mountainous area and beautiful nature. Unfortunately completely overcrowded... - The bus was on time and the driver managed the winding and narrow route without any problems. Guadalest is worth a visit, but it is overrun by tourists and the castle costs extra. The waterfalls are not very spectacular and are also completely overcrowded. The guide talked the whole way back and forth and the volume was so loud that you couldn't understand the person sitting next to you.
