“It was a great relaxing experience! Me and my husband enjoyed it very much. The staff was friendly, food was delicious, drinks were expensive but amazing and the views and experience are definitely worth the money! Don’t doubt and just get the ticket.😉”
Mallorca coasteering in 4 hours: cliff jumps, sea cave swims, and abseiling with a licensed guide, small group, transport included.
“A lot of fun, guide was lovely and very friendly. Only annoyance was that the app said not to bring valuables when it seemed fine to leave things in car, because of this I didn't bring my phone and couldn't phone when I walked past the pick up point. I didn't lessen my enjoyment but I think the listing could do with being more specific.”
Cuevas del Drach half-day tour from Palma with skip-the-line entry, Lake Martel classical concert, sunrise light show, and Majorica pearls stop.
“The caves were totally amazing! I totally enjoyed our visit especially the concert at the end of the cave tour. The music was so beautiful and the boat carrying the musicians on the water was magical.”
Vintage wooden train from Palma to Soller, then a classic tram to Port de Soller. Includes coach pickup and a guided half-day.
“It was a really lovely day but pretty expensive. Not sure it’s 100% worth it.”
Half-day Drach Caves in Porto Cristo, with Martel Lake boat ride, classical concert, and a Majorica pearl factory visit.

“Me cancelaron el tour un día antes y no me desembolsaron los 106 dólares que pagué”
Half-day from Palma to Caves of Hams and the Blue Cave, with a laser Mozart show, classical music, and select south hotel pickup.
“Gute Beleuchtung, nicht rutschig, viele Stufen mit guten Handläufen, nette Präsentation der klassischen Musik. In der Perlenfabrik ausreichend Zeit zum ansehen. Interessantes Museum über weltweite Perlenproduktion. Guide und Fahrer waren gut organisiert und informativ.”
Half-day from Alcúdia to Dinosaurland and Cuevas dels Hams, with coach transport, skip-the-line dinosaurs, and a 3D cave show.
“Tyvärr var guiden inte tillräckligt tydlig. Vi fick biljetterna till både dinosaurieparken och grottorna detta gjorde att vi trodde vi kunde g till grottorna när vi ville i vår egen takt men när vi kom dit hade vår guide redan gått in med gruppen och vi missade halva grotturen så vi fick inte riktigt ut allt vi velat eller betalt för. Alla andra guider på nofrills utflykter har varit så övertydliga och noga så dåligt att denna guide inte sa detta tydligt. Ingen info gavs på vögen ner utan allt blev lite snabbt när vi skulle gå av när det fanns gott om tid att säga viktiga saker när man…”
Half-day catamaran from Port d'Alcúdia to Playa de Formentor, with sun on deck and about 1 hour at the beach.
“El recorrido fue bien, pero el tiempo de parada muy corto, se debería dejar disfrutar más tiempo de la playa, porque se pasa mucho tiempo en el catamarán, el faro de Formentor, casi ni se vio. De todos modos es una experiencia diferente, y las vistas muy hermosas.”
Half-day coach trip from Alcudia to the Caves of Hams: fast-track entry, Magical Mozart show, Blue Cave LEDs, and botanical garden time.
“The caves are impressive and the lighting adds to its beautiful formations Documentary is interesting as explains how was discovered and about the cave was formed It’s not a 4 hour tour as advertised it’s a bit more like 6 with all the pick ups and then drop offs Plus you have a hour to wait once finished cave tour, as it’s combined pick up with people who go on the caves and dinosaur land trip which is located next door to the caves…..”
Private 4-hour sail from Palma with tapas and drinks, snorkeling gear, SUP, and swim time at Cala Comtesa with sunset views of the Cathedral.
“Gabriel was brilliant. We got very lucky and ended up as the only passengers after our slot had to be rearranged due to the weather. We were looked after so well, the food was as lovely and we got a dip in the (freezing!) water in the bay. Gabriel even let us all drive the boat for a bit! Would recommend going for the private hire of the whole boat if possible - we felt 9 people would be a squeeze for seating and changing after swimming when you’re all strangers (max 4-6 would be fine in that situation). We were a group of three and had loads of room.”
Half-day mountain biking in Mallorca’s Serra de Tramuntana with a guided ride, prebooked train ticket, and a 37 km loop through forests.
“Gran experiencia de bici de montaña, saliendo del centro de la ciudad, y transfiriendo a un bosque escondido hasta la cima de un castillo. Nuestro guia ofrecio un servicio impecable, siendo servicial y amable; enfocado siempre en la seguridad y asegurando que nuestros hijos tuvieran la mejor experiencia posible. Muy recomendable.”
Half-day Mallorca trip to Cuevas del Drach and Majorica pearl factory with English guide, pickup options, and a must-see cave concert.
“Excellent tourist guide, very correct very explanatory, with many facts and information about Mallorca in general, close, polite and friendlyAuto-translated”
Every kind of day on the island, and the best of each.
