About this tour
Spend 7–9 hours exploring Palma, Majorca's historic capital, with flexible options to suit your pace. Choose transport and free time alone, add the Gothic cathedral on self-guided terms, or opt for a guided cathedral tour paired with the mountain village of Valldemossa. Navigate baroque plazas, contemporary galleries, independent boutiques and waterfront cafés at your leisure, or hop the sightseeing bus to cover ground without walking.
Highlights
- Gothic cathedral with soaring ribbed vaults and rose windows
- Valldemossa's steep stone streets and hilltop views
- Independent shopping and gallery browsing in Palma's old quarter
- Terrace cafés overlooking harbour and baroque architecture
- Self-guided exploration or guided cathedral interpretation
What to expect
Your day begins with transport to Palma's historic centre. If you've selected the free-time ticket, the city is yours to roam—browse independent designers, sit in shaded plazas, visit art spaces. The sightseeing bus option covers major landmarks without tiring your feet. Cathedral visitors (self-guided or with a guide) enter the vast Gothic structure and explore its interior at their own rhythm. Those choosing the premium option continue to Valldemossa, a white-walled village clinging to forested slopes; allow time to wander narrow lanes, peek into local galleries and cafés, and absorb the quieter Majorcan atmosphere before returning to Palma.
Good to know
Wear sturdy shoes and cover shoulders and knees in the cathedral. Pickpockets operate in busy Palma streets—keep valuables close. Cathedral entrance is not included in the free-time option and costs extra locally. Contact the operator 48 hours ahead for exact pick-up details. Not suitable for those with severe back or heart conditions.
