5.00Our guide Grigor was excellent. He was knowledgeable about the Alicante area and places of interest. He was accommodating when we wanted to stop for refreshments and at the end of the tour when he dropped us off in the town center, so we could continue exploring.

He was ever so helpful. We had a fantastic time and caves and trip to Busot were amizing. Highly recommended ! 1000%

5.00We booked another tour with the same company during our stay in Alicant, and once again, they didn't disappoint. We visited the Canelobre Caves – and wow, what an incredible place. It's massive, impressive, and honestly a bit breathtaking. The stalactites and stalagmites are huge, and you feel very small standing inside. Our guide was brilliant – he had a great sense of humour 😄 He kept us laughing the whole time, which made the experience even more fun and relaxed. After the caves, we went to the church, then the museum, and we also walked up to the castle. The views from the top are absolutely worth it. Everything was well organised, the group was small and friendly, and we had such a great day out. If you're in Alicante and want to see something different from the beach, definitely book this tour. Thanks again to the whole team – we'll be back!
Exploring the Caves

5.00It was an amazing experience to see the caves and going into town to see the church and the music museum was interesting to see. The castle was a bonus to walk up to and was able to experience it privately which was nice to look at the views peacefully. The tour overall was amazing and I would highly recommend this if you go to Alicante, plus our tour guy (Grigor) was very nice and gave us waters.
Comfortable tour and friendly guide

5.00We enjoyed the tour in general. Everything was well organized: the guide picked us up in a convenient place and brought us back after the tour. From the beginning, he greeted us with a smile and offered us water, which was very nice. During the trip, the guide gave an interesting account of the cave and the surrounding area, was informative and fascinating. He felt that he knew the subject well and tried to make the tour comfortable for the guests. Only positive experiences left, thanks for the great experience!

5.00We visited the Tallest Caves in Spain and it was a very interesting experience to know how it was formerly lived in this type of homes. We also visited the Ethnic Musical Instruments Museum, with a very curious collection of instruments from around the world. Guide Carlos made the visit very enjoyable with his explanations. A different experience. 100% recommended!

5.00It was a wonderful experience. The caves of Canelobre are a spectacular example of what nature can do! Next we visited the Museum of Ethnic Music in Busot, a small pueblo in the surroundings and personally I loved it. Grigor, our guide picked us up where we were staying, he is a delightful person. Highly recommended!

5.00Grigor was very friendly and the first impression with the nice new car and a bottle of water was very welcoming. He informed us of what we were doing with historical facts of our location. The cave was easy to access with nice stairs. The person telling the cave tour talked very fast amd had a laser showing areas in the cave which she circles fast making is dizzy. Lol. However this was an amazing guide amd transfer from and back to the hotel, caves, local village.
