We bought tickets on Viator. We had to walk nearly 50 minutes to get to the first stop to catch the bus. We got off halfway through the route. When we tried to get back on, we had to line up behind people who were buying first time tickets at the bus stop. Having a ticket in hand does not give you any priority to get back on. And they would not let everyone on the bus because they said they needed to leave open seats for people to get on at the next stop. So they made us wait for the next bus, which is another 15 minutes and no guarantee you will get on. We had to walk 1 hour and 20 minutes back to our ship. Don’t waste your time or money on this one.
We had to wait almost an hour to get on the hop on hop off bus if you are getting it from a cruise ship!!!
Bus stop closest to dock was not as far as previous post suggested. The whole tour is about 1.5 hours. Yet the bus stops at one particular area for 20-30 minutes. So whole tour approximately 2 hours. Castle option was great because the views of Palma de Mallorca were amazing from the top of the castle.
Does what it says on the tin. Good value and a good way to get around. We booked it for 15 on this website however the price on the bus was only 10.
Unless you are into the beach or water sports, there is not a lot to do at this port. The HOHO bus is always a relaxing way to see the town and decide where you want to spend some time. Good value.
We struggled to find where to get on the excursion. Finally found the boat ride, which was just putting around the harbor. We couldn’t hear any information about anything. When we got on th bus, no one gave us headphones and after we asked for them, 1/2 of the jacks didn’t work and thr ones that did were too difficult to understand what they were saying. The bus broke down and we were told to get on another overcrowded bus where we had to sit inside with no breeze or AC. Would not recommend.
It was all treat!
Went around the city on the bus. It takes about 90 minutes to do the entire route. Good stops in various places. The stops are far apart so you really can't walk to a different stop to avoid part of the route, which is a bummer.
visited all attraction.
The bus tour was a terrific way to see Palma. We also enjoyed exploring Bellver Castle.
