About this activity
Discover the beauty of Palma de Mallorca, the capital of the Balearic Islands, on a sightseeing day tour, including free time to explore the city at your leisure. Aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned bus, enjoy the drive along the beautiful Mediterranean coastline. Admire the views of Mallorca’s beaches and Palma’s fishing port and the cruise area. Stop here to see the defensive fortress built in 1688 and to take photos of the Palma coast.
Once we get to Palma (at around 10:30) we will do a 30-40 minutes
sightseeing tour where we will drive through the Port of Palma from where you will be able to enjoy spectacular views overlooking the Bay of Palma de Mallorca. While your guide explains interesting facts about Palma and the island of Mallorca, see beautiful monuments like the Cathedral of Santa Maria (commonly known as La Seu) and the 13th-century Royal Palace of the Almudaina.
Your sightseeing tour lasts approximately one hour (depart from north area) or 40 minutex (depart from East area), after which you will have four hours of free time to grab a snack, shop or visit interesting monuments. You will also be given a map of Palma’s city center.
On your own and at your own expense, you can see a multitude of sights and attractions in Palma. Wander around the Plaza Mayor (the main square) and through the narrow alleyways of Palma's old part of the city, the medieval quarter. Visit the Arab Baths, the only Moorish building that remains almost intact in the city; it is believed to be part of a palace that once stood there. Wander around the modern part of the city to visit interesting design and clothing shops, or visit the Fundación Juan March to admire the latest exhibitions of Spanish art. Rejoin your guide and group after your free time for your trip back to selected hotels.

This tour was not as advertised and very disappointing. We were contacted the day before the tour that our hotel pick up was 12 noon instead of 9:20 am. Then we were picked up by an open top bus instead of an air conditioned coach. It was sunny and hot. The majority of the commentary was in French, with a little English translation. We signed up for the English speaking tour.. We were not able to get out of the bus at Bellver Castle, just had a brief photo stop. At 12:20 we got off the bus in the bus parking area at the sea port. There we were transferred to an English speaking guide for a walking tour which was great but over in 30 minutes. From the time we got on the bus to the end of the walking tour was less than 1 hour. We also did not receive a voucher for a tapa and drink as as listed on the tour information page we printed out with our voucher for a half-day trip south area. We contacted the tour provider and were told on the Viator page says: On your own and at your own expense, you can see a multitude of sights and attractions in Palma and the tapa and drink is for the option from the north departure.. Instead of waiting 2 1/2 hours for the bus ride back to the hotel at 3:30, we walked back to our hotel and were there in 15 minutes.
