From tantalising gastronomic tours to railway adventures and dune buggy experiences, Palma has a whole lot to offer beyond its beauty and beaches. Prepare to experience this city in its full glory.

Explore differently Train, car, bike, buggy? Whatever your preferred mode of exploration you’re guaranteed to experience something incredible. Take the train to see Mallorca’s West coast or hire an E-Bike for a fun tour of the city.

Fantastical food and wine 

Known for its glittering nightlife and alfresco dining, Palma has a few surprises up its sleeve. Why not join a guided wine or food tour of the city’s most loved and local haunts? The choices are deliciously yours.

Take to the water 

Whether you’d like to charter a private boat, sail the coastline with a local guide, dance til dusk on a Catamaran, or maybe just keep it simple and take a dip in beautiful blue waters, Palma has it all.

Best time to visit would be in May. With beautiful sunshine all year round, the warmer days start to hit in early Spring. In May you’ll have warmth but without the summer crowds. Love the heat? July and August are the months for you.

Public transport – bus around the city. It can be a little lively in Palma. So, if you’re staying central we recommend you buy a prepaid travel card so you can hop on and off along the quicker, calmer bus routes.

Staying in the old town
Experience the true romance of Palma in the historic old town. With winding streets, gorgeous floral displays, charming restaurants, bars, cafes and boutiques, you’ll find yourself falling in love.

A visit to Palma’s picturesque Old Town is always highly recommended. Known in Spanish as ‘El Casco Antiguo’, it’s where the majority of must-see tourist attractions are located, such as the majestic ‘La Seu’ Cathedral, the Royal Palace of Almudaina and Es Baluard Contemporary Art Museum.
