Discover the life of Alicante on a vibrant, history-rich experience with our electric tuk tuk tour. Over the course of approximately one hour, you will explore the city's most emblematic, intriguing, and fascinating corners, enjoying a blend of culture, mystery, breathtaking views, and insider details known only to locals.
Your tour begins at the elegant Casa Carbonell, an icon of Alicante's architecture and the gateway to the Historic Centre. From there, we will enter the Town Hall Square, where the ancient cannons and the famous clock mark the pulse of the city and its celebrations.
Next, we'll visit the enigmatic Plaza de los Árboles Viejos, a square with a dark past where public executions used to take place and which still retains echoes of those times. Our next stop is the poetic Plaza Gabriel Miró, an oasis of calm and beauty dedicated to the renowned Alicante writer.
We will stroll along the iconic and colourful Calle de las Setas, a street brimming with fantasy, urban legends, and a popular history that captivates everyone. Right afterwards, we'll head to the Teatro Principal de Alicante, where you'll learn about its centuries-old history, its mysteries, and its role in the city's cultural life.
We then climb to the picturesque Santa Cruz Quarter, the heart of the Old Town. Its cobblestone alleys, flower-decorated houses, and sea views will transport you to another era. Nearby, we will stop at the majestic St. Mary's Basilica, the oldest church in Alicante, where an image of the Virgin Mary adorns its side façade, in a location that is as intriguing as it is symbolic. What's more, entry to the Basilica is free, which makes it a must-see.
We will continue our ascent to the imposing Santa Bárbara Castle, but before we get there, you will learn about the hidden secrets along the way: the Monkey Face in the rock, the street lamps with carved faces, and the underground history of tunnels that connected houses in times gone by. You will also see the charming Casita de las Macetas Azules (Little House of the Blue Pots), a photogenic gem halfway through the tour.
Once at Santa Bárbara Castle, the panoramic views will take your breath away. From up high, you can take in Alicante in all its splendour, with the sea, the port, and the Old Town stretching out below you.
The descent takes us to Plaza de España, followed by the iconic Plaza de los Luceros, the heart of the Hogueras festivities and the city's nerve centre. To round it all off, the tour ends in front of the beautiful Playa del Postiguet, where the blue of the Mediterranean meets the living history of Alicante.
