Program details

Admire with your private tour guide from Alicante and Guadalest this small village of Arab origin, declared a Historic-Artistic Site. It is a good idea to go up to the castle of San José, a Muslim fortress from the 11th century, which can be accessed through a natural tunnel on the rock. The castle is situated in the high part of the town. It was first a Muslim settlement, then it came to form part of the Crown of Aragon.



This fortress has the unusual feature of housing the whole town – all of it formed part of the castle, surrounded by mountains. Once outside of the Castle your private tour guide Alicante will show you the old “prison” of Guadalest located in the Town Hall, and we will find the main square with the typical street full of souvenirs stores and handicrafts shops. Take your time to admire the ceramic handicrafts specially designed in this area.
