Once everyone is onboard our guide will give information about what to expect during the day and the itinerary you will be following. The guide will also be sharing useful information as well as interesting facts, not only about Mallorca's caves but also about the places we will be passing by during our journey. As we head towards the East Coast of the island you will see a different and more traditional authentic side of the island in comparison with the more modern south. It is in the East Coast where we will find both the the Caves of Drach and Caves of Hams.
On our way to the Caves we will venture through Montuïri, famous for its windmills! Historically linked to cereal and flour production, and it presents an important combination of culture, heritage and tradition. Our guide will provide you with some interesting facts and history on this authentic side of the island!
The next stop is at Mallorca's most well-known caves: the Caves of Drach. These are in fact the biggest and most beautiful caves in Mallorca. Visising these caves will be by far one of the highlights of your stay in Mallorca. There we will enjoy the magical classical music concert performed by musicians on boats in Lake Martel. After the concert and the fascinating light display that recreates the sunrise, you will be given the option, free of charge, to cross Lake Martel's spectacular waters by boat.
We will then continue on to the Caves of Drach and the Caves of Hams which are considered to be the best out of Mallorca’s 200 caves. At the spectacular Caves of Hams you will be taken on a guided tour which will help you discover details unique to these caves as well as plenty of interesting and curious facts, making your visit without a doubt a very unique experience.
The first stop we will be making will be at Mallorca Pearls where you will be able to get to know a little more about the rigourous manufactoring process of this product. In this area of the island there is a tradition of producing pearls that recreate natural ones. This is one of Mallorca's mos well known products. There, at Mallorca Pearls, you will also be given the opportunity to purchase goods at outlet prices.
Then we will take you to Porto Cristo where you will have free time.

Cave of Hams is really boring. You walk through a tiny space that is really crowded, and see some uninteresting formations. Drach cave was amazing!
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We're really glad you enjoyed the Caves of Drach — they are indeed one of Mallorca’s highlights and always impress visitors with their scale, beauty, and the unique concert experience. We’re sorry to hear that the Caves of Hams didn’t meet your expectations. While some guests enjoy the different atmosphere and formations, we understand that preferences vary. That’s exactly why we include both cave visits in this full-day tour — so guests can experience two very distinct geological sites in one trip and decide for themselves which they prefer. We hope to welcome you back again in the future! And from 2025, feel free to reach out to us via our exclusive WhatsApp service for direct clients — ideal for getting personalised recommendations from our expert local team with over 20 years of experience.
The Caves do not disappoint, they are very beautiful, they are both worth the visit, although frankly without running they can be done in half a day, but... there it is. The complaint is about the price of 81.50 per person including food. They took us to a Toñi restaurant, which is about 200m away. From Majorica's shop. The food was vomiting and believe me I'm sorry, lentils with hot water and coloring, 2nd a pork baked, dry and with dark water, painful. Don't mislead people, take them out for a Franfur and you'll be better off and no one with a chance of getting intoxicated. I know they won't listen, but they should change the restaurant.
Muchas gracias por reservar con nosotros y por tomarse el tiempo de compartir su experiencia. Nos alegra saber que las cuevas cumplieron con sus expectativas y que la excursión en general fue de su agrado. Lamentamos sinceramente que la comida no haya estado a la altura de lo esperado. Nos sorprende su comentario, ya que hasta ahora no habíamos recibido quejas sobre este restaurante. Aun así, nos tomamos muy en serio todas las opiniones de nuestros clientes y, por ello, realizaremos una visita de inspección con un "mystery customer" para evaluar si el restaurante sigue siendo adecuado para formar parte de nuestras excursiones. Seleccionamos ese lugar principalmente por su proximidad al itinerario y porque el autobús puede aparcar allí con facilidad, pero nuestra prioridad es siempre ofrecer calidad en todos los aspectos del servicio. Le agradecemos de nuevo sus observaciones, ya que nos ayudan a mejorar, y esperamos poder recibirle en otra excursión con una experiencia aún más redonda.
Great shopping along the route to the caves. However didn't appreciate being stranded after we got to Palma. We were picked up at Porto Pi and dropped off some place else where we had to find our way back to where we were picked up
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're pleased you enjoyed the shopping along the route to the caves. Regarding the drop-off, it appears there may have been a mix-up, as we did have Porto Pi scheduled as your drop-off point, and some other guests did disembark there. We believe you may have exited at an earlier stop, which could explain the confusion. Our team is always available to assist, and we’ll work on making drop-off points even clearer to ensure a smoother experience for all our guests. Thank you again, and we hope to see you on another tour in the future!
No transport system collection point! Git up super early. Drove to pick up point. 3 coaches there. Spoke yo all drivers and none were for caves excursion. Telephoned tour operator, no reply. Phoned 3rd party tour company that arranged trio and they had no info but have requested a refund. Tried to book tickets for caves independently a d all sold out!! 1😡
dear traveller we are sorry but this review doesnt belong to us, as we have no records of a booking under your name, and all clients on this trip were picked up on time according to GPS on the bus. we always encourage to book directly and to avoid booking with companies offering similar trips. thanks
The trip was advertised by the agents as an interesting trip which I cannot say it wasnt. However on arrival your were stood waiting in a big que, the coach trip was lenghly as picking other passengers up.on the way. The representative spoke so many langues you had passed most things by the time she got to English, and this went on form 90% of the journey ? I think most people zoned out in the end. On arrival yu were told there were so many steps, which in purchasing no one mentioned steps steep declines or inclines so for thise with disabilities this trip is a definate challenge and I would say not one to be taken, i suffer osteoarthritis and it challenged me immensley so be advised before booking for this. The caves themselves were a wonder of the world but felt once in you ushered through the walks ways way too quickly and the members of staff not very welcoming or helpful. Once you reach the autiorium dont expect to get on a boat dissapointing, you are ushersd up more steps to seating for the classical concert performed by an orchestra in one boat with lights which was also dissapointing as lasted 5-10 minutes. As soon as that is finished people rush forward to get on the boats which there are only three and the rest of you walk the bridge up a steep climb to exit. For me a totally dissapointing experience. So please ask when booking of you have physical needs how this will challenge you ! Ticked off thr bucket list but a dissapointing one!
Thank you for visiting with us one of the most glorious natural phenomenons of Spain; the Caves of Drach. Our guides and drivers always do their best to ensure that our clients have a memorable day out and give plenty of information. Certainly during the months of July and August there are many people in the caves and the itinerary inside the caves is not under our control. We appreciate your time in evaluating the activity and we will work to improve the service in the future.
Well, the experience was very good, another tour company picked us up, why didn't they pick us up (they forgot)
You have to get the tickets online, and that makes access easier and faster. There is food in the surrounding area, if you don't want to bring your sandwich. They are very beautiful caves, different from many.
Estimado viajero, Gracias por sus amables comentarios acerca de nuestra empresa. Estamos encantados de que haya disfrutado de su día con nosotros y esperamos que haya tenido unas buenas vacaciones en Mallorca.
