PAGE RESERVED EXCLUSIVELY FOR GROUPS (direct or via travel agencies)
Upon arrival of your cruise, we will meet at the Palma port, at the designated meeting point, to begin this half-day excursion through some of the most emblematic places of the Mallorcan capital.
We will board a coach to the vicinity of the Bellver Castle, a 14th-century fortress known for its unique circular plan and privileged location atop a hill. From the outside, we will be able to enjoy panoramic views of Palma, its port, and the bay, and there will be time to take photographs. The stop does not include entrance to the castle.
Afterwards, we will continue by coach towards the city center. During the panoramic tour, the guide will reveal the history and some of the most notable corners of Palma, from its avenues and stately buildings to the streets that bring us closer to the historic heart.
Once in the monumental area, we will position ourselves next to the Cathedral of Santa María, known as La Seu. Facing the sea, its imposing Gothic silhouette is one of the most recognizable images of the city. There we will appreciate its exterior and learn some details about its history and architecture. Very close by is the Royal Palace of Almudaina, a former Muslim alcázar that, over the centuries, has been a royal residence and a symbol of Palma’s past.
Next, you will have free time to stroll through the historic center, enjoy the atmosphere of its streets and squares, admire the Cathedral from different angles, or visit the shops in the area. You can also browse the Mallorcan pearl stores, known for their designs and as a very characteristic souvenir of the island.
The guide will indicate the meeting point and the scheduled time to return to the coach. Once the group is gathered, we will return to the cruise port to say goodbye to this wonderful Mediterranean island.
