Two of the Costa Blanca's prettiest towns take centre stage during this full day excursion. You'll discover the colourful coastal town of Villajoyosa and the rock-perched village of Guadalest inland. There's also a visit in between to the Safari Aitana zoo.
Villajoyosa means ‘the Joyful Town', and it's easy to see why from the moment you set sight on it. Vividly coloured houses line the seafront and the banks of the dried-up river bed. It's a quirky town trait that attracts and inspires many artists. Next, we'll head to the Aitana Mountains to visit the Safari Aitana zoo. Here, you can observe elephants, buffalos, giraffes, tigers, lions and more.
After a break for lunch, it's time to explore Guadalest. This impossibly built hamlet is nestled high in on a ridge overlooking a pine-clad valley. Despite having under 300 residents, it boasts a medieval castle and eight museums.
