Spain · MALLORCA ISLAND EXCURSIONS
16 tours
Most people never leave the south of the island, which is a shame, because the good half is a mountain road. Below are the 15 best Mallorca excursions: the Tramuntana and the Sóller tram, the Drach caves by boat, catamaran days out of Palma. Cost, and how much of the day each one eats.
Skip the queue to Palma Cathedral (La Seu), see Gaudí and Barceló highlights, royal tombs, giant rose window, and optional terraces nearby.
“Amazing, don't not go in to the cathedral at Palma, it is breathtaking”
Palma de Mallorca 5-hour catamaran cruise with two swim stops, snorkeling gear, BBQ lunch, plus wine or sangria. About $69.
“The activity was lots of fun. The team was great and kept the mood up! It was wonderful.”
Palma de Mallorca open-top hop-on hop-off bus with a 24-hour ticket, 16 stops, and optional Bellver Castle or Spanish Village entry.
“There were multiple busses running in Palma, and that was great. There was very little waiting. The buses were comfortable and cool. The ear buds worked well. There was one bus that had a really loud AC or fan that was aggravating, so we moved to the top level under the shaded cover, and that was cooler than below. The main complaint is the amount of traffic, which was simply unavoidable. We would definitely take this tour again because of the convenience and variety. The recorded audio track was easy to understand and hear.”
Mallorca island tour from the south with bus, Tren de Soller tram and train, plus boat to La Calobra cove and Port de Sóller.
“Our tour guide Juan was excellent and had a wealth of knowledge. At one point of the tour I started to feel bad for him because he hadn’t stopped talking the whole tour as he translated for many different languages! He was excellent! 👍🏼😁”
Majorca’s Caves of Drach with Lake Martel and live classical music, plus an optional stop at Caves of Hams and Porto Cristo.
“very nice trip, very nice caves with musical shows. only bad is the Pearl shop which was super expensive.”
Mallorca quad adventure from Palma with MXU 300 ATVs, a mountain viewpoint at Randa, plus snorkeling and optional cliff jumping.
“Pablo was super funny and helpful. Although it was too windy and slightly cold to jump in. They still showed us the area and give us a little view”
Palma Aquarium in Palma, Mallorca, with faster entry and optional 3D Aquadome cinema, plus big tanks, daily feedings, and family-friendly fun.
“Great aquarium, plenty of sea life to look at. Ideal place for both kids and adults”
Palma Bay cruise with snorkeling and a swim stop in Mallorca’s marine reserve, plus onboard music and one included drink. 2.5 hours.
“The staff was very nice… The trail has a very beautiful view and the bathing spot is amazing! I would definitely recommend this tour”
Mallorca sea caving at Cova des Coloms: swim through crystal water into limestone caves with wetsuits, helmets, and hotel transfers.
“It was so cool to jump in to the sea from a cliff. The cave inside was so beautiful and the natural pools took our breath away. Our guide was a fun lady. It was one of the best experiences I ever had! Absolutely fantastic. We want to do it again the next time when we will be back.”
Mallorca 2-hour dolphin cruise on a glass-bottom boat. See Risso’s and bottlenose dolphins, enjoy snacks, and watch under the deck.
“The water was a bit choppy but didn’t feel it much with the catamaran boat. Guide was very funny and so nice, other staff were happy and chatty when you talked to them. Delighted we got to see dolphins! Very happy children, guide was great with pointing them out. Also thank you to the lovely guide/captain who allowed my partner to propose to me on the boat! Slightly embarrassed but beyond happy. Thank you all again! 🩵”
Porto Cristo caves and Dinosaurland combo ticket with Blue Cave history, bird-filled Round Cave, and 100 life-size dinosaurs in 2 hours.
“We visited the caves in Mallorca followed by Dinosaur Land, and it was a fantastic experience for both kids and adults. The caves were stunning, with impressive rock formations and a magical atmosphere. Afterwards, Dinosaur Land was full of life-sized dinosaurs and fun activities for children — they absolutely loved it. Definitely worth the money, and a great way to spend the day.”
A 1-day Mallorca sweep with Tramuntana views, Sa Calobra tunnel beach time, boat ride, Sóller tram, and a vintage train.
“The itinerary is far too complicated. Coach held up on all mountain roads by excessive number of cyclists. Stop in Soller Port too short. Tram departure delayed by high tourist numbers. No time in Soller to look around. Had to get off late running tram and straight onto Wooden Railway. Great train journey but tours drop passengers off at a special stop which is just there to transfer back to coach. An interesting day but far too much rushing from one place to another.”
3-hour afternoon dolphin watch from Santa Ponsa or Paguera on a glass-bottom catamaran, with a swim stop and onboard bars.
“Great views etc. no signage on the dock to say this was the correct jeti. Overall lovely route with dolphins, a quick dip in the sea.”
Ride an on/off-road buggy through Mallorca, hitting Llucmajor and Monti Sion with a 360 view stop. Shared price, real adventure.
“It was really nice, really enjoyed it we add fun but really safe at the same time, the guys there were very friendly explain everything how it should be and they explained how everything works in at least 3 different languages. 5 stars guys we really enjoyed our time there. A big thank you.”
3-hour glass-bottom dolphin cruise from Santa Ponsa or Paguera with a swim stop, snorkeling gear deposit, and two onboard bars.
“Absolutely loved seeing the dolphins !! The boat was lovely but depending where u get picked up depends how good the seats are you get - however everyone moves about to see the dolphins once boat in right area. Not particularly accessible if in crutches or mobility issues unfortunately. Was a fab day though, would def do again thank you!”
