About this experience
This is a shared trip. Join us for a compact, feel-good road trip through the most contrasting and scenic corners of the Costa Blanca.
What’s packed into these 6 hours:
Benidorm from above.
We’ll see the city the way locals love it. Walk out to the iconic Balcony of the Mediterranean, snap those postcard shots, and hear how a tiny fishing village turned into Spain’s own Manhattan.
Colorful Villajoyosa.
A city of happiness and color. Bright façades flowing right into the sea, holiday vibes everywhere, and the kind of streets that beg for photos and inspiration.
Living history — a 1,500-year-old olive tree.
Yes, really. It’s been standing here for fifteen centuries — and it still bears fruit. Touching something this ancient feels surprisingly powerful… almost mystical.
Guadalest — the grand finale.
The jewel of the route. A medieval castle carved into the rocks and a reservoir with surreal emerald-turquoise water. Views so beautiful you just stop talking and stare.
