Day Trips in Alicante

"While on vacation in Alicante we decided to take "Charming Village Tour" with Ali- Oil Tours. So glad we did! From the time our tour guide, Alberto introduced himself his knowledge and passion for this area of Spain,didn't stop. We processed to drive along the BEAUTIFUL coast,as Alberto described each and every area. We stopped in Villajoyosa, Altea and the family owned Perez chocolate factory. Each has its own unique charm, and history. We had lunch in Altea, outside with a gorgeous view of the landscape. The mix of the van ride and strolling each town was a perfect balance. I'm so glad we took this tour learning so much in this cultural, historic filled area of Spain."

We were a group of 8 and had a private guide for the whole tour called Alberto who was fantastic all throughout the day. He was informative, friendly and you could tell he was passionate about olive oil and proud of the Alicante region! The tour takes place at a family-run, semi-organic olive grove in a lovely spot near the town of Relleu, and takes you through the entire olive oil making process from growing all the way to bottling. A highlight was the tasting session we had, where you get the opportunity to taste the four varieties the farm sells. We also met the father and son who run the farm and who were eager to answer any questions. To finish we enjoyed a great picnic with local cheeses, meats, wine and of course olive oil to spare! On the way back, Alberto even took us round the local artisan chocolate factory and gave us a free additional tour! What a legend! Would highly recommend the whole experience!

"I took 2 tours with Ali-Oli. Both were exceptionally good. Overall the tours were exceptional because they are well organized and curated. The rates were low and there were no hidden fees. Even better was the fact that you're in a small group. There is none of that herding of the touristas with Ali-Oli. The tour guide (Alberto) gave a rich history of the areas toured, pointed out local customs and products, and then let us roam. I went on the Guadalest/Algar tour and the Winery tour. Both were amazing and I highly recommend them. Hoping I can squeeze in another tour with them before I leave Alicante."
