25 tours in Alicante, from €29 to €160 per person, average rating 4.8 based on 3943 reviews.
Alicante tours on this page cover the city and trips beyond it: we read every listing and picked 25 tours by hand, each rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €29 per person for tapas walks to €160 for small group trips to Guadalest and Algar springs. Among the Alicante guided tours, a castle and tapas walk combines transport up to Santa Bárbara with market snacks and a drink, then follows a walking route down through the old town.
A quick way to choose: the castle and tapas walk has steps and is not recommended for people with reduced mobility; some day trips from Alicante also sell Benidorm departures, so select your starting city; the flamenco ticket includes tapas but leaves drinks extra.

Start with a city food activity so you keep time for Alicante itself. Fit the Food and Tapas Tour around sightseeing, or make the Paella Cooking Class & Central Market your main food plan. For example, the Paella Cooking Class & Central Market is €49 per person, rated 4.99 from 803 reviews. Declare dietary needs. The Food and Tapas Tour with a Local Guide is €29 per person, rated 4.91 from 567 reviews. Lunch Time is English only. Guadalest tours have a median duration of 6 hours.
Stay with city activities if you need time for other plans: their median duration is 2.5 hours, at a median price of €49 per person. Across 25 tours, the median price is €49 per person; the middle half cost €35 to €75 per person. Trips outside Alicante have a median price of €60 per person and a median duration of 6 hours. For example, Alicante Wine Tasting and Tapas Club is €35 per person, rated 4.96 from 166 reviews.
Start with private tours if hotel pickup is essential, and shared tours for food and tapas. Their price medians describe different products, so they cannot price an upgrade to private. The median is €30 per person as listed across 3 private tours, and €52 per person across 22 shared tours: a spread between different products, not a premium for the same tour. Of 10 food and tapas tours, none are private. Hotel pickup: 1 of 3 private tours. For example, the shared Paella Cooking Class & Central Market is €49 per person, rated 4.99 from 803 reviews.
Start with city tours for wheelchair access: 7 of 17 are operator-marked accessible. Use the children filter specifically for strollers and infants. Strollers and infants are accepted on 19 of 25 tours. Among the 8 trips outside Alicante, none are operator-marked wheelchair accessible. For example, Canelobre Caves and Busot is €54 per person, rated 4.99 from 150 reviews; it has numerous steps and is unsuitable for reduced mobility. Filter first, then confirm your access needs with the operator.

For a half day out, choose Canelobre and Busot if you can manage steps; Guadalest trips take a median of 6 hours, so keep the rest of that day free. For example, the shared Canelobre Caves and Busot Tour includes transport, cave and music museum visits: €54 per person, rated 4.99 from 150 reviews. It is unsuitable for reduced mobility. The 7 tours in the day trips listing have a median duration of 5.5 hours.
Use the hotel pickup filter if you need a hotel start: the shared Canelobre and Busot tour includes transport but does not list hotel pickup. Hotel pickup is listed on 1 of 25 tours, including 1 of 3 private tours. Of the 22 shared tours, none list it; of the 17 city tours, none list it. For example, Canelobre Caves and Busot is €54 per person, rated 4.99 from 150 reviews. Included transport does not mean collection from your accommodation.
For Spanish, French or German, filter by guide language first. Skip the Food and Tapas Tour's Lunch Time option if you need one of those languages: it is English only. Spanish, French and German appear in the catalogue's guide languages. For example, the Food and Tapas Tour with a Local Guide is €29 per person, rated 4.91 from 567 reviews. Its Lunch Time option is English only. A language tag does not guarantee the language of every departure; confirm the language of your selected option with the operator.
