You will be enchanted by Majorca’s beauty. Discover the picturesque fishing villages, the weekly market in Santany and the famous Dragon caves. Enjoy a bath in secluded ocean bays, cycle along old stone walls through fields with almond trees and vast orchards. You will be moved by the panoramic view from the Randa monastery and fascinated by gnarled olive trees, deserted fincas and the bizarre cliff coastline on the hike to the artist village of Deya. A special treat is the ride with the historic train from Palma to Soller. In wooden railway cars you ramble through the Tramuntana Mountains with orange and lemon orchards stretching as far as the eye can see. Visit Fornalutx, a beautifully situated mountain village and speed down the steep 10 km/ miles descent to the bay of Sa Calobra. A boat ride along the coast, Kap Formentor, the monastery Lluc and the town of Palma offer prime photo opportunities!

Highlights

Palma
Palma de Mallorca comes as a surprise to many people - it is stylish, sophisticated, intimate, yet bursting with life. Located on the southern shores of Mallorca, the island's capital city looks out over the sparkling blue seas of the Mediterranean.

Palma cathedral La Seu
The glory of Palma - a magnificent Gothic cathedral La Seu whose sandstone walls and flying buttresses seem to rise out of the sea.

Colonia de Sant Jordi
Colonia de Sant Jordi is found on the south-eastern coast of Mallorca and forms part of the Ses Salines district. It is also sometimes referred to as Port de Campos as the main town of the area, Campos, is a short 15 minute drive away.

Porto Cristo
This was one of the main resorts on the east coast until Cala Millor came along. With bigger and better beaches elsewhere, Porto Cristo has carved out a role as a friendly, family resort, taking advantage of a superb position at the end of a long, sheltered inlet.

Cuevas del Drach
Dark and cool, these limestone caves (Cuevas del Drach) on the edge of Porto Cristo have become one of Mallorca's top tourist sights. Groups are accompanied along the 1200m of smooth paths by guides who tell you in four languages how to interpret the magnificent stalactite formations within. 

Alcudia
In the north of Mallorca lies the ancient town of Alcúdia. This medieval town is not to be confused with the beach resort of Alcudia, or the port, Puerto Alcudia! Many of Majorca's towns were built several miles inland to provide protection against marauding pirates, and the port & coastal areas were only developed in more recent times as tourism became a major source of income for the island. 

Sanctuary de Lluc
Mallorca's most sacred site - Sanctuary de Lluc - a former monastery in a spectacular setting in the Serra de Tramuntana mountains to the north west of Mallorca.

Sóller and Port de Sóller
Set in a lush valley of orange groves between the mountains and the sea, Sóller is popular with day trippers who arrive on the vintage train from Palma and seem to do little but sit outside the cafes in Placa Constitucid soaking up the atmosphere and the sun.

Tren de Soller
This is definitely on our list of favourite things to do in Mallorca. If you like a railway journey or not, the Tren de Soller has got to be one of the prettiest and most memorable small train trips you can take.

Tour

Individual journey to the the capital of Majorca. If you are entering Majorca by plane, the best way to the first hotel is by taxi (approx. Euro 30,-). Enjoy the Mallorcan flair of Palma right from the start of your trip and visit the La Seu Cathedral and the Almundaina Palace. Or stroll through the pedestrian zone to Plaza Major.

After the welcome and personal tour information, you will start the first cycling stage to Capocorp Vell, where remains of the dwellings of the indigenous people can be seen. Close to the coast you will cycle along selected cycle paths and admire the typical windmills that line the way to the salt fields of Llevant with the pink-white shimmering salt lakes. At the destination, bathing pleasure awaits you on the sandy beach with crystal clear water!

To a botanic garden via Ses Salines. You visit a picturesque bay near Cala Santany. Through small fishing villages to the famous stone nature bridge "Es Pontas". Near Porto Cristo there are the Dragon caves with their grotesque pictures and forms.

Via the sleepy village Son Carrio you bike to Manacor, the town of the Majoricas-pearls and of ceramics (visit of the exhibition). Via Santa Margerita ("most beautiful town square of Mallorca") through one of the most beautiful landscapes of the island to C'an Picafort.

Today you need not pack your suitcases. You spend one more night in C'an Picafort. The tour takes you via an ornithological park (nature reserve) to Puerto Pollença (an old Roman harbour). Along the coastal way to Alcudia (oldest town of the island) and then back to C'an Picafort.

Into the interior of the island via Muro and Inca and then to the mountainous landscape of the Sierra. There is a bus transfer to the monastery Lluc (break for a visit) and then biking to 1200 m above sea-level. Descend via Fornalutx ("the most beautiful village of Spain"), then partly through orange and lemon plantations to Port de Sóller, one of the most attractive fishing villages of the island. In Fornalutx one has an excellent Paella-menu (inclusive).

Breathtaking views over the sea open up the last stage of the bike ride. Passing the picturesque villages of Deia and Valldemossa, we head along the rugged west coast with its fascinating landscape towards Palma. You should definitely explore the island's capital with its alleys and wide squares before you take the cycle path along the sandy beach back to the starting point of the journey.

Today your bike trip ends after breakfast. We recommend to book some more days to discover this beautiful island.

We have to reserve changes in the itinerary (especially on the first two bike stages) due to the fact that hotels are still closed at the almond blossom appointment and the first arrivals in March.
