Informative light easy visit - Easy walk through the entries site, great for my 12 year old son to learn about bullfighting and anyone who has a curiosity on the subject. You get to visit the infirmary, see the back corrals and individual stalls with pulley door systems etc. They have a few virtual reality short films, a museum showing the outfits etc and many black and white photos of bullfighters and some prizes. Many bulls heads are mounted throughout and you can get up close and see the size. They also take the time to speak about how and where the bulls are raised on the dehesa. Certainly a great life compared to our usual beef which only gets 18-24 months. Overall 1 hour easily spent at our pace, no crowds, no pressure. Very enjoyable.

An interesting tour - We were surprised by how quiet this was when we went (on a Monday mid morning). It was interesting, audio guide was a nice touch - easy to get around, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend if you want to understand some Alicante traditions with bull fighting etc.

The areana was set up for... - The areana was set up for a private function which distracted from the atmosphere. Did get to oversee an matadore practicing. No livestock. Audio system worked well and was very informative. It would have been nice to view an actual bull fight. Even virtually or by movie presentation.

Good but - Interesting visit, a small tendency to propaganda. What ruins everything is the moment with augmented reality headsets and above all, the taking of photos: we tell you nothing, we place you in front of a mark on the ground and we take photos of you, without asking your opinion, or explaining the purpose, it is very embarrassing
