Itinerary
No Frills Excursions
Pass by
An excursion is much more than just to take you from your hotel in Mallorca to the venue. Our philosophy is that every excursion in Mallorca should be an experience and we use the best guides and choose the best itineraries to ensure that we create unforgettable experiences.
Parc de la Mar
15 min
Meet your private guide in central Palma de Mallorca, near the Parc del Mar, and take a leisurely stroll to the so-called ‘monumental area’ where the bounty of the city’s sights can be seen. As you walk, feel free to ask your guide as many questions about the city and the island as you wish; one of the benefits of a private guide is that the commentary is tailored to your interests.
Palma de Mallorca
180 min
Learn about the island’s Jewish heritage and the community that lives in Mallorca today as you explore the old 16th-century Jewish quarter, and then finally discover the Art Nouveau side of the city by taking a look at Palma de Mallorca’s intriguing Modernist architecture and developments.
Catedral de Mallorca
Admission not included15 min
Stop for photos outside Palma Cathedral (La Seu), and hear how the Roman Catholic place of worship was built on the spot where an Arabian mosque one stood. If the site is of particular interest to you, upgrade to include admission and head inside to admire the circular, stained-glass windows and Gaudi-designed features. The colorful, and often controversial, Modernist artist left his mark on the site, and his attention-grabbing altarpiece is considered the cathedral’s highlight.
Palau de l'Almudaina
Admission not included10 min
Pass Almudaina Palace, which was originally built as an Arabian fortress, and then head through the streets of Palma de Mallorca Old Town, a charming warren of twisting streets, churches and 16th-century courtyards filled with trees and fountains. Scout out hidden gems such as the Convent of Santa Clara and the Arab Baths, and hear interesting tidbits of their history from your guide.

Excellent tour!
We asked guide Jeanine to focus on the local architecture and she gave us a highly detailed tour on that aspect of Old Town. She led us through the most interesting areas that are off the typical tourist path. She explained the details & history of various architectural styles found in the neighborhood. It was a memorable tour.

Tour guide didn’t turn up
Marta did not turn up. We waited 20 minutes at the meeting point. No apology, nothing. We contacted Viator who refunded quickly but again, no apology

This is the tour to take
Peter was excellent. You will love this tour. He goes at your pace.!
The reason is Fivestars isn’t because of peter it’s because we were not told the port is almost 5 miles from the meeting point so you need to take two cabs if you have a child need to make sure that you have a Cab big enough for your stroller
So if the company is reading this, please tell Cruise passengers that they need to get 2 to 3 calves depending on the size of their group to get to the meeting point!
That would’ve been nice to know before we started out on a 1 mile track before hailing Cabs with an 18 month old

Excellent guide
Our original guide called in sick. New guide offered non-private option or cancelation. Chose to go. Our guide was extremely prepared and very interesting. At conclusion we were left with good direction on how to continue on our own. Good experience.

Disappointing
I was excited for this tour having been to palma several times and done my own exploring as well as a segway tour I was hoping for something different.
Our guide had some good local info of the old buildings and quarters etc but we paid for the cathedral to be included on the tour but turns out this does not mean a tour of the cathedral. Our tour therefore was only approx 2 hours and then we were left to walk around the cathedral on our own

A thoroughly enjoyable and informative morning
A thoroughly enjoyable and informative morning learning a lot about Palma. Peter is an engaging host who was keen to ensure we drew the specifics we wanted from the tour. Highly recommended.
