Alicante, Spain

Perched like a crown overlooking the attractive city of Alicante is the bewitching Santa Barbara Castle. On this 3-hour tour, access parts of the fortress that are usually off limits to most visitors. Start with a 1-hour guided tour visiting the dungeons and cisterns, while hearing the sinister stories of events that happened here. Then visit Volvo Ocean Race museum. Finally, sit down and enjoy a traditional lunch that includes salad, paella and a drink.

Santa Barbara Castle is a true relic from the Middle Ages, and this tour is one of the best ways to learn about its long history, which dates back to the 9th century.

Then, may choose to go to the top of the castle for jaw-dropping views of Alicante before taking in the exhibition at the Volvo Ocean Race museum.
Finally, tuck into a traditional lunch of salad and paella, washed down with a beer, wine, water or soda.
