Gaspar was great! He made sure that the group stayed together and could hear him well. He kept us informed of where we would go next and what we would be doing and seeing. Great group size. Saw many sights and learned so much.

“Palma de Mallorca: A Day to Remember”

We had an absolutely wonderful time on our shore excursion in Palma de Mallorca! The experience was fantastic from beginning to end. The tour was very well organized, enjoyable, and gave us the perfect opportunity to discover the beauty and charm of this amazing island. A very special thank you to our tour guide, Lucia, who was truly magnificent! She was knowledgeable, friendly, enthusiastic, and made the entire experience even more memorable. Her passion for Palma and its history really shined through, and she made sure everyone felt welcomed and cared for throughout the excursion. This was a highlight of our cruise, and we would highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Palma de Mallorca. Thank you for such a wonderful day and for creating memories we will treasure! ❤️

A perfect excursion mixing history, natural sights and beautiful cathedral.

The guides are very helpful and know a great deal about the history and general knowledge of all the islands around Mallorca. The tour is just the right amount of time, not too long, there is a good mix of travel in bus, walking on streets sightseeing and some free time. It's perfect for cruise travelers who don't want to spend the entire day on shore. The guides are friendly, accommodating, humorous, and punctual. I would highly recommend the tour as you get such a wonderful feel of inland Mallorca with a mountain village feel that is really beautiful, and then the main sights of the city of Palma.

Wonderful trip!!!!!

It was better than I expected. Adriana made it fantastic. She was filled with facts, but being a native to the area for 30 years, she added flavor and personal tips (ie what the area was known for to eat or take home…and where to get it.) There was a perfect blend of group trip (with ear pieces so we could hear her talk) and self exploration. She has a love for all people and her country. Her personality is awesome!!

The ad showed a private tour and we would be the only 4 in the tour. They sent me a message telling me Juan would pick us up with a sign that said JAT. We did as they said and there were 30 people that showed up with us!! It’s not private at all.

Operator response

This bestselling group tour has never been advertised as a private tour. Please note that private tours are clearly labeled as PRIVATE directly in the title, and cost at least three times more than this standard group tour. A 25-person group, which you refused to join, is considered a small group by international tourism standards. If you would like to experience a standard large group tour, you may book with your cruise ship and compare the difference. Booking your activities with Viator further we strongly recommend basing expectations on tour description rather than personal assumptions and ambitions. Safe travels.
