There’s always something left to discover in Alicante. We don’t hand you a list. We build you a plan. Choose how much time you have, what you’re into and how you’re getting around: on foot, by bike, by car or by public transport. In Alicante, with location enabled, the route starts from wherever you are. The stops are ordered for you, with visit and travel times already factored in; on walking routes, the timing also accounts for hills. The route takes opening hours into account and warns you if a place will be closed when you get there. You can add or remove stops. Arriving on a cruise? Turn on Cruise stop and set your all-aboard time: the route starts from the terminal and is planned around that window, with a safety buffer already built in. A guide that walks with you, not a brochure you read beforehand. Once you start the tour, the app detects when you reach each stop. Short on time? Cut the route down or finish at the nearest stop. Raining? Keep just the indoor stops. Audio guides The audio guides are narrated in Spanish and English with synthetic voices, and you can also read their text. What to do near you today and this weekend. Discover shows you today’s highlights. The map shows places and events, plus city landmarks with their descriptions. Save the events you’re interested in: we’ll remind you before they start, and you can add them to your calendar. You can collect Alicante too. Earn stamps in your passport when you reach places that have them, with the app open, and track your progress in the challenges. Staying several days? The multi-day plan spreads your visit out, one route per day. No signal, no sign-up required With “Get ready for your trip”, the app downloads the listings and photos so you can check them with no signal. You can use the app without signing up; with an account, your stamps and everything you’ve saved stay with you when you switch phones. During a tour, the stop you’re on and your progress appear on the Lock Screen and, on iPhone models that have one, in the Dynamic Island. The app is available in Spanish, English, French, German, Dutch, Polish, Italian, Portuguese and Norwegian.
