Palma by land and sea with free time, boat cruise and bus tour

4.2/5
69 reviews

See the best of Palma in two ways – by land and sea. You'll hit the streets with free time in the bustling capital, grab iconic coastal views from the vantage point of a boat, and discover more about the city on a guided bus tour. Xisco, one of our local guides, says, 'La Seu, also known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria, is one of the most iconic landmarks in Palma. This majestic Gothic cathedral sits on the site of a former mosque and is situated on the shores of the Med, overlooking the bay. It's well worth a visit during your time in the city'.

We'll drop you into the heart of Palma early for around two hours of free time. Grab a coffee at one of the many dinky cafés and bars, browse the shops for souvenirs to take home, or wander through the charming streets lined with historic buildings. After, you'll hop aboard a boat for a cruise along Palma Bay. Soak in the stunning coastal views and feel the gentle sea breeze as you drift along the sparkling waters – you'll need your camera for this one.

Back on dry land, your journey continues with a guided city tour from the comfort of a bus, heading towards the magnificent Bellver Castle. En route, enjoy insightful commentary about Palma's rich history and cultural heritage. Upon arrival at Bellver Castle, there'll be a quick photostop to capture the panoramic views of the city and the bay. The castle's unique circular design and elevated position offer a spectacular vantage point.

    Good snapshot of Palma. Informative and helpful guide. Coach tour of city gives you the layout of where historic and shopping areas are. Coach drops you near Cathedral. Boat trip provides good photo opportunities of major sites. Not sure why we went to Castle as it is closed on a Monday? Though good viewing area. Only thing I would suggest to improve tour would be longer than 2 hours of free time, by the time you have visited the Cathedral had a quick drink you are due back to coach.

    The guide was extremely knowledgeable and informative about the history of the island and Palma, and made excellent suggestions on where to eat lunch. The boat trip was extremely enjoyable and just the right length of time. Being picked up and dropped off right at the door of the hotel was a huge bonus.
