Private Tour: Palma de Mallorca Old Town

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
