Heidi at Round Town Travel was so helpful and without her I doubt if we would have been able to book our hotels in Benidorm using our bono viatge. They are very professional and have an extensive knowledge of the Benidorm and the surrounding area. It was a lovely surprise to find they had left us a bottle of Cava and Chocolates in our room at the Dynastic!! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone and their day trips look fantastic value. Thank you Heidi look forward to our next booking with you.

7. Walking Tour of Elche

Plaça del Parc, 3, 03202 Elx, Alicante, Spain Ana Galera Visitas Guiadas

There are two ways to visit a city, with or without an official guide, and the experience is very different. The buildings and places have to be counted and for that the guide gives voice to the stories, facts and events that give rise to the idiosyncrasy and culture of each city or town. It is a comfortable tour, where short stops are made to get to know the city in a friendly, fun way and taking into account the public we are addressing. This tour can also be done in groups previously closed to make the experience more personalized. Children under 10 years old do not pay. The tour may be bilingual, depending on reservations. I would love to be able to show you my city and tell you everything that identifies us. If you need advice on places to eat, dine or have fun, I will be happy to help you. :)
