Things to do Free Tour Alicante Old Town

Discover not only Alicante’s famous landmarks but also a quieter, hidden side of the city that few visitors get to see. Led by an official local guide, this relaxed walk blends history, legends and everyday life. We’ll explore the Explanada de España, the elegant Town Hall Square, Casa Carbonell, and the Basilica of Santa María, then leave the crowds behind as we wander through charming backstreets and up to the Santa Cruz quarter — a peaceful hillside neighborhood filled with whitewashed houses, colorful flowerpots, and stunning views. Don’t miss the Blue Pots House, one of Alicante’s most photogenic corners. Along the way, we’ll stop at a family-run nougat (turrón) workshop, crafting this sweet treat for over 140 years and six generations, where you’ll enjoy a free tasting of artisan turrón and local liqueur. (Available only on morning tours, except Sundays and public holidays.) The tour ends at the lively Central Market, the beating heart of local life — a perfect place to keep exploring Alicante’s colors, aromas, and flavors on your own. A perfect mix of history, charm, and local flavor — discover the real Alicante, beyond the postcards.
