S&B Posted March 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Has anyone done this excursion. It goes to the Palmoral de Elche to see the palms. Is there anything else there? We will be there in November 2016. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English_in_Spain Posted March 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Elche is a wonderful town and the palms are worth seeing. Especially worth a visit is Huerto Del Cura (The Priest's Garden). It really depends if you are keen on plants and trees. Normally Elche would be an excursion from an Alicante port stop. From Cartagena it about 70 miles. As nice as it is I personally wouldn't travel that distance to go there. Does the excursion stop anywhere else? Murcia perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S&B Posted March 16, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Thanks so much Carol. I went back to our itinerary and we do stop at Alicante. The excursion is 4.5 hours and ends up at a shoe factory. Being from Florida I think we will enjoy seeing what the other side of the world has in palm trees. We do enjoy our palm trees here and have three of them in our yard. Thanks again. Sylvia I went back and read your previous posts that you shared with someone else. After the excursion I believe we will stay in town and then take the shuttle back to the ship. I am going to print out what you have written and take it with us. Thanks for the information and taking the time to help us. Edited March 16, 2016 by S&B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
