Discover the largest island of the Balearics at your own pace. Sea or mountain, culture or beach, quiet coves or crowded clubs, it´s all here in the beautiful Mallorca. Your stay will be split into two different hubs so you´ll be able to make the most of it.

TOUR HIGHLIGHTS:

Palma: a true gem filled up with historical sites that also shelters an endless array of galleries, restaurants, craft studios and bars. Wander in any direction from the awe-inspiring Gothic Catedral, looming baroque churches, teeming public squares, vibrant bohemian neighbourhoods and markets overflowing with all the bounty of the island. 

Cap de Formentor: literally means ‘end of Formentor’, where the top end of the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range meets the Mediterranean. The drive to this point has scenery as dramatic as anyone could wish for. Cliffs 400 metres tall jut into the sea, their weird rock formations attracting nesting seabirds, while pine trees seem to grow out of the rocks. 

Valldemossa: the highest town in Mallorca, perched on a hilltop, surrounded by terraced terrain, Valldemossa was named after the area’s original Moorish landowner, Muza. With its car-free cobbled alleys and rich cultural heritage, the town is a treat to visit.

Port d'Alcúdia: you really get an all-round holiday experience with wonderful beaches, interesting excursions, well-preserved nature, a good mix of bars, restaurants, diverse nightlife and decent shopping options that even include a handful of chic boutiques.

Day 1: ARRIVAL PALMA DE MALLORCA – CAN PASTILLA (7km – 10 min) / CAR HIRE PICK-UP

Arrive at Mallorca airport and pick up your hired car (heading first to the rent a car shuttle stop, exact indications to be advised upon confirmation). Drive directly to Can Pastilla in the southern part of the island and close to the capital Palma de Mallorca, where you will stay the three following nights. 

Overnight in Can Pastilla. 

Day 2: CAN PASTILLA

Wake up to breakfast at your hotel and head out to discover Can Pastilla and its glorious beaches. Otherwise, you can go explore Palma de Mallorca, said to be one of the best European cities to live in. It has a lively vibe and many beautiful buildings, the most notable of which is the Gothic cathedral. This towering construction looms over the busy port, usually full of yachts and ships. Lose yourself in the wide array of shops and bars that cram the narrow alleys of the old city and go experience life in the now trendy but ancient fishermen’s neighbourhood of Santa Catalina.

Overnight in Can Pastilla. 

Day 3: CAN PASTILLA – VALLDEMOSSA – DEIA – SOLLER – CAN PASTILLA (75 km – 2 hrs)

After breakfast at the hotel, discover three of the most emblematic towns on the island. First drive to the picturesque village of Valldemosa, home to the great composer Chopin and his lover George Sands. Here you will find many beautiful shops and traditional bakeries. Stroll along the village and absorb its beautiful landscape. Enjoy some free time in Valldemosa or, if you’re up for more sightseeing, visit La Cartuja monastery. Continue to Deia and Soller by driving through a rugged landscape of thick lush forests. Both villages are well-kept, and steep streets lined with stone facades comb its surface. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, they offer many gorgeous photo ops. Return to your hotel in Can Pastilla. 

Overnight in Can Pastilla.

Day 4: CAN PASTILLA – PORT D'ALCUDIA (58km – 45min)

Start your day with breakfast at the hotel and a drive to your next destination: Port d'Alcudia. Dedicate a day to discovering the sandy Mediterranean beaches and clear waters. Choose your preferred destination and spend your time however you please: swimming, shopping, sunbathing, sipping a drink on a terrace…options are endless!

Overnight in Port d'Alcudia.

Day 5: PORT D'ALCUDIA – PORTOCRISTO (DRACH CAVES) – PORT D'ALCUDIA (52km – 1 hr)

Our suggestion for today: After breakfast at the hotel, hop into your car and depart towards Portocristo, where you can visit the famed Caves of Drach, one of Mallorca’s most popular tourist attractions (entrance fee not included). Marvel at this incredible natural latticework of sprawling underground caverns and lakes. Afterwards, drive back to the hotel for some rest and relaxation or stop at one of the many beautiful coves you will cross en route and while away the afternoon in the sun and the water. 

Overnight in Port d'Alcudia.

Day 6: PORT D'ALCUDIA

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel and dedicate the days for relaxing in Port d'Alcudia or its surroundings: you set the pace. Relax in the hotel, or if you’re feeling adventurous, go visit some more of the area’s most attractive destinations, such as the stunning nature on display at Cape Formentor or the quaint town of Pollenca, with its lively little market. 

Overnight in Port d'Alcudia.

Day 7: PORT D'ALCUDIA

Indulge in a tasty breakfast at the hotel before another day at leisure in Port d'Alcudia. 

Overnight in Port d'Alcudia.

Day 8: PORT D'ALCUDIA – DEPARTURE PALMA DE MALLORCA (58km – 45min) / CAR HIRE DROP-OFF

Bid farewell to Mallorca after breakfast at the hotel and drive back to the airport to drop off the car. You'll be told the return procedure and exact designated area by the rent a car company when you pick up the car on arrival day. The rent a car shuttle service will transfer you to the terminal for you to catch your departure flight back home. 

Comfortable and light clothing is the most suitable for travelling in Spain though a warm jumper and jacket are advisable in the cooler months. Visitors should not wear sleeveless shirts, shorts, short skirts or skimpy clothing when visiting religious or official buildings. Sun protection, sunglasses, a hat and mosquito repellent can be very useful during your stay.
