Ca'nPicafort,Mallorca

 

Below gives an idea of what is possible - prices are subject to change. Optional excursions are not guaranteed and are based on minimum numbers. The prices quoted are guideline only and may involve other non-Solos holidaymakers. 

 

You will discover the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most beautiful mountain and sea landscapes on the island. You will take a panoramic bus tour through different towns in the interior of the island until you reach Escorca, in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana. You will continue the route towards La Calobra, now crossing mountain landscapes until you reach the access to this cove. This last stretch undoubtedly offers some of the most spectacular views of the north coast of the island, and its winding route makes the excursion a great adventure. Once you arrive at your destination, you will have approximately an hour and a half of free time to explore the area or, if the temperature is warm enough, enjoy a swim. You will continue the excursion with a boat ride (if navigation conditions are optimal) to the Port of Sóller. 

 

If this option is not available, the route will be made by crossing the heart of the mountains, bordering the Cúber and Gorg Blau reservoirs. Once in the Port of Sóller, you will take the tram to Sóller and from there, the emblematic wooden train to Palma. *(The route can be done in reverse. First the train from Palma to Sóller, then the tram to the Port of Sóller and then the boat or bus route to Sa Calobra. It depends on the schedules of the service providers). 

 

Sail around the beautiful Pollensa Bay, Formentor and Mal Pas. The catamaran stops at a quiet spot below the cliffs where you can cool off in the turquoise water and use the SUP & snorkelling equipment (masks only). Then head to another spot for relaxing on board and more swimming in the sea, followed by a delicious buffet lunch with a drink included. Arrive at Formentor beach for a walk, coffee or sunbathe under the trees on the beach. Back on the boat, head back to Port Pollensa passing by Formentor lighthouse and La Fortaleza, Spain's most expensive holiday home and the 17th-century Spanish villa from the BBC's hit drama series 'The Night Manager. 

 

Located in Porto Cristo, an old fishing village, you will discover one of the largest visitable subway caves on the island: the Caves of Drach. Four caves that extend to a depth of 25 meters, connected with each other and with one of the longest subway lakes in the world. The visit lasts approximately 1 hour and during this time you will be able to contemplate the different formations that the water filtrations are molding. You will enjoy a short recital by a music quartet that will perform four pieces of classical music on board one of the lake's boats. At the end of the tour, if you wish, you can cross the lake by boat, a crossing of no more than 2 minutes, which will allow you to learn about the characteristics of the formations that make the lake navigable. The tour continues with a stop at the marina of Porto Cristo, where you can stroll, have a refreshment or visit the Majórica pearl exhibition store. 

 

On this excursion to Palma, one of our guides will take you through the history, traditions, and culture of the city on a guided tour starting at Parc de La Mar. This tour will lead you through the streets and alleyways of the oldest part of the city, showing you buildings, squares, and churches. Additionally, you will visit the Cathedral where your guide will provide detailed information about its history and architecture. Once the tour is complete, you will have free time to continue exploring points of interest such as the Mercado del Olivar or La Rambla, or if you prefer, you can go shopping in the various stores along Jaime III street and its surroundings.

 

Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate add on.
