Seven trips you can do in one day if you stay at Grand Luxor Hotel & Village
Tour of Valencia
If you want to see Valencia in an enjoyable way in one day, we recommend the following stops:
- Plaza de la Virgen: It’s one of the focal points of the city, right next to it you can also see the Cathedral of Santa María, the Basílica de la Virgen de los Desamparados and the Palau de la Generalitat Valenciana.
- The Central Market: It’s uniquely decorated and of great dimensions. It was opened in 1928. Definitely not to be missed!
- Plaza del Ayuntamiento: Another of the emblematic places in Valencia, where Las Mascletás are held during Las Fallas.
- If what attracts you most is the historical part of the city, don’t miss Las Torres de Serranos, Torres de Quart and the Centre del Carme Cultura Contemporània.
A day at the Algar and Guadalest Waterfalls
These water circuits of waterfalls and rivers offer one of the most striking natural sights in the area and are one of the most emblematic places in Benidorm. On the same day, you can take the opportunity to visit one of the most beautiful villages in Spain: Guadalest, a municipality that dates back to the Muslim period and was declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1974.
The Villajoyosa chocolate tour
It’s one of the day trips in Alicante that your palate will enjoy the most. For chocolate lovers we have the perfect route: the chocolate tour.In Villajoyosa, you’ll find four large chocolate factories famous for their quality, history and craftsmanship. Chocolates Valor stands out, but you can continue your tour of the other factories, shops and museums of this chocolate-making municipality.
Altea
Altea is considered to be one of the most charming villages in Alicante. It has a network of narrow streets and white houses among which the blue dome of the Church of Nuestra Señora del Consuelo stands out.
Calpe
One of the places you can’t miss on your holidays in Benidorm is Calpe, which stands out for its beautiful beaches of La Fossa or Arenal-Bol and, if you’re looking for a more dynamic route, we recommend the route to the viewpoint of Monte Toix, from which you can observe the beauty of the Mediterranean.
Another of the main attractions of the municipality of Calpe is its imposing Peñón de Ifach, which we can also climb to observe the beautiful views, without forgetting that because it’s in an elevated position, we’ll have to climb quite a lot to reach the top.
Kayak Tour
Another of the excursions near Benidorm that we offer is the fantastic guided kayak tour of the coastal area of Jávea, where you can enjoy the wonderful panoramic views from Granadella beach, discovering the most exclusive coves and caves which are hidden along the coast.
Trip to Tabarca Island
During your holiday in Benidorm, it will be almost impossible not to hear about Tabarca Island. It’s one of the main attractions in the area, as its waters are considered a marine reserve and it’s the only inhabited island in the Valencian Community. One of its most important historical attractions is that it was once a refuge for Barbary pirates. In addition to its history as a refuge, we can also highlight the fact that the walls surrounding the Tabarca Islands have been declared a Historic-Artistic Site and an Asset of Cultural Interest, which makes it even more appealing for a getaway.
