Itinerary

Palma Cruise Port

Passing by

Meet our official licensed tour guide right outside the Palma Cruise Port in walking distance from your cruise ship (no treasure hunt required — we'll be near the taxi stand with a sign and a big smile).

The tour guide won't be alone: a modern, comfortable and a/c equipped minivan or minubus with and experiend driver will be waiting for you too!
Castell de Bellver

30 min Admission included

First things first: we're taking you uphill. Why? Because the best views require a little effort.

At Castell de Bellver, a 700-year-old circular castle (yes, circular — sounds fancy, is fancy!). Climb some ancient steps (not too many) and be rewarded with a jaw-dropping panoramic view of Palma Bay. Cameras ready. Dramatic poses encouraged.

Please note that all museums in Palma, including Bellver Castle, are closed on Mondays. If your tour takes place on a Monday, we will not be able to enter the Castle. However, the photo stop is always guaranteed.
Stop 3

Passing by

Next, sit back and relax as we drive along the beautiful seafront of Palma. The marina, the yachts, the Mediterranean breeze. It's basically a postcard in motion.
Sa Llotja

10 min

Welcome to one of Palma's Gothic gems. La Lonja — or Sa Llotja in local language — once hosted medieval merchants striking big deals. Today this impressive building hosts expositions and likes to be admired for its own beauty.
Parc de la Mar

10 min

Palm trees, sea views, and the Cathedral reflecting in the water — this is where Palma shows off. A perfect photo stop with the Mediterranean sparkling behind you.
S'Hort del Rei

10 min

A peaceful royal garden tucked beneath the Almudaina Palace. Fountains, greenery, and shaded walkways — a little oasis where even time seems to slow down.
Catedral de Mallorca

one hour Admission included

That's the star of the show! Step inside the breathtaking Cathedral of Mallorca, known locally as "La Seu". Majestic columns, stained glass that paints the walls in color and an architecture that will make your jaw politely drop. Your guide will share the stories, secrets and fascinating details that most visitors miss.
Placa de Cort

1 h 15 min

After the second part of the walking tour with your guide, it's your turn to explore.

Wander the charming cobblestone streets, shop for local treasures, grab a coffee, hunt down ensaimadas (trust us), or simply get lost on purpose. Palma's Old Town is best enjoyed at your own pace.
Passeig Del Born

10 min

Known as Palma's "golden mile", this elegant boulevard is perfect for a final stroll. Chic shops, historic buildings, and a lively Mediterranean vibe. Take some final stylish photos before leaving!
Palma Cruise Port

Passing by

All good things must (sadly) end. But don't worry, we'll bring you comfortably back to the Cruise Port with plenty of time before departure, new memories in hand and probably way too many photos on your phone.

Meeting point and pickup

The operator picks every participant up from their accommodation or the points below.

Pickup points

The meeting time will be arranged according to your cruise schedule, so you won't have to rush ashore and will return comfortably to your ship, with a guaranteed arrival before it departs.

The meeting point will be in the terminal building assigned to your cruise ship, approximately a one-minute walk from the ship.

The exact terminal is assigned by the Port Authority a few days before the ship's arrival and will be communicated to participants before the day of the tour.
