This walking tour in Alicante focuses on the city's history and food culture. It begins at the Central Market, where typical local snacks are sampled. After about half an hour, private transport takes the group to Castillo de Santa Barbara, a castle with over 1,000 years of history located by the sea. The tour includes a one-hour visit to the castle's secret areas and surrounding hidden spots not marked on maps. The group then walks through the Barri Vell Santa Creu neighborhood for about an hour, exploring important monuments, local legends, and seven city secrets. The tour ends at a tapas bar run by a local award-winning chef, where participants taste one of the best tapas in Alicante along with a choice of sangria, local wine, beer, or a soft drink. The entire tour lasts about two and a half hours and includes private transportation to the castle, snacks at the market, a tapa at the tapas bar, and one drink option. The walking distance is around 2 kilometers, mostly flat or downhill, with some steps. This tour is not recommended for guests with reduced mobility or severe vertigo.
