Alicante Airport to Altea
67 km, 55 minutes, one fixed price
Altea is the quiet one on this stretch of coast. It sits just past Benidorm, close enough to use it and far enough not to hear it, and the old town climbs a hill that ends at a church with two blue tiled domes.
The run is 67 km and about 55 minutes, fixed at €105 for the vehicle. That is the whole car with luggage, up to four passengers, agreed before you travel.
Two things about arriving here that a meter punishes you for: Altea Hills is a long climb above the town, and the old town is a knot of narrow streets where a driver who knows it saves you ten minutes and a steep walk.

Arriving in Altea
The town on the hill
The old town is uphill and narrow
The climb to the church is cobbled and steep. Tell us the address and the driver gets you as close as a car can, rather than leaving you at the bottom.
Altea Hills is another climb again
The villas above the town are a serious ascent with luggage. Same €105 whether you are staying there or on the seafront.
A town people come back to
Altea has kept the white houses and the artists, and has no high rises. It is the calm neighbour to Benidorm, twenty minutes up the road.
The drive itself
Through Benidorm and out the other side
The road passes Benidorm about ten minutes before Altea, which is the moment the view changes: the towers stop and the coastline goes back to being rock and low white houses. The turn into Altea is easy to miss in the dark, and the climb into the old quarter is not a road you want to meet for the first time with a hire car.
Altea draws a quieter traveller than its neighbour, and a good share of our passengers here are people who tried Benidorm once and moved twenty minutes up the road.
