What to expect

Extending from the very north of Majorca out into the Med, Cape Formentor is a jagged finger of land – and one of the most scenic parts of the island. On this tour, you'll visit a village market and enjoy time on Formentor beach. Plus, there's a stop Es Colomer viewpoint and a boat trip along the Formentor coast. Lluc, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘I love exploring Cape Formentor – a mountainous peninsula where the spectacular views along the coast are accompanied by the scent of the Mediterranean pines and the herbs that grow wild here.'

Kick off the day with a wander around a weekly market – it's a taste of rural Majorcan life. Lluc says, ‘The vendors selling just a few different types of seasonal fruit or vegetables are usually farmers who grow their own produce – and usually the best value.' Next, we'll set off to explore the Formentor peninsula. As we drive around its winding roads, you'll be treated to dramatic scenery. We'll stop at Es Colomer, where there are unrivalled views of the coastal cliffs.

Then it's time to chill out on Formentor beach. This narrow, curved strand is fringed by a pine forest and is washed by pastel-blue waters. Refreshments are available at a beach café, and you can secure your table by choosing the ‘lunch included' option. To round off, we'll go by boat to Port de Pollença, where the seafront is lined with stylish villas and hotels from its early 20th-century golden age.

Palma by night with optional guided tour or dinner
Activities

Palma by night with optional guided tour or dinner

By day Palma is a medieval wonderland, by night it's a radiant hive of activity. You'll be taken to Majorca's elegant capital for an evening away from your resort. Browse designer stores, dine in trendy Santa Catalina or stroll on the city walls under the Gothic cathedral. Xisco, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘La Llotja is a 600-year-old medieval exchange. It's free to visit and you can follow its twisting Gothic columns as they wind their way to the ceiling. You can also spot a ‘spy box', where spotters would look down on the crowd to see if anyone was stealing.'Arriving Palma in the early evening, you'll have about five hours to spend in the capital. You can choose to have the evening to yourselves with five hours of free time to wander at your own pace and perhaps find a place to enjoy a meal. Alternatively, you could opt to join a guided tour of the historic city to get some local insight as you weave through the amospheric streets for around 90 minutes. If you decide to book the dinner option, you'll dine in the Cellar sa Premsa restaurant at 8pm.Most shops are open late so you can visit the boutiques and high street stores around the tree-lined boulevard of Passeig d'es Born, or browse for souvenirs near the cathedral, which glows in after-dark floodlighting. Palma is a city which stays up late, and many cultural attractions such as La Llotja and Es Baluard Modern Art Museum stay open until 8 or 9pm, so you can sightsee even on an evening visit.

Guided Tour of Hams Caves with Dinosaurland Visit

As family outings in Majorca go, it's hard to beat this double-header to the Hams Caves and Dinosaurland. It's a spine-tingling and dramatic journey into the island's pre-history, where Genesis and Titanosaur will leave you open-mouthed. Marga, one of our local guides, says, ‘This tour really captures the imagination as you go from one of Majorca's oldest attractions, the 10-million-year-old Hams Caves, to one of the newest, the recently opened Dinosaurland.'The Hams Caves may be millions of years old, but they were discovered only last century. And since then, they've become one of the island's top attractions. As you explore the three main caves, you'll learn about the island's original inhabitants. The semi-open Round Cave, with its botanical vegetation, has a Jurassic feel to it – and whets your appetite for what's inside. In the Blue Cave, an audiovisual timelapse documentary called Genesis recounts the history of Majorca from the Big Bang to today. And the Classic Cave, which is a network of 12 chambers, is full of mystery. There's also a soothing Venetian-inspired music show.The mild gives way to the wild at Dinosaurland, where you'll walk among the more than 100 life-sized recreations of dinosaurs, including the mythical Titanosaurus, at more than 50m long. Some consider it to have been the largest species. The kids can also play at being palaeontologists, enjoy games and puzzles or try their hand at drawing. A great day out for the whole family.

Drach Caves, pearl shop with digital museum & local market tour

Three Majorca musts share top billing on this tour. You'll stroll the stalls of a farmer's market, delve into the depths of the famous Drach Caves and visit the renowned Majorica pearl factory. Xisca, one of our local guides, says, ‘Before you even set foot inside, you call feel something truly spectacular lies ahead. The cave system is a world of secretive caverns and subterranean lakes brought to life by music and light shows.'Your first stop will be the Majorica shop and museum, where possibly the finest imitation pearls in the world are made. See digital displays explaining the manufacturing process before browsing pearl jewellery in the shop. Xisca says, ‘The designs are creative and exquisitely crafted, which is why Majorica jewellery is such a popular birthday or Christmas gift on the island.'It's then on to the weekly market in a country town. Poke around stalls stocked with everything from fragrant fruit and vegetables to aromatic herbs and pungent cheeses. The chance to try products such as Majorca's famous black pig pork is part of the experience. Spicy sobrassada, a spreadable paprika-cured sausage, makes for a great take-home souvenir – and helps local producers. Then, round off the day at Drach Caves. Get the lowdown from your guide on the formation of the system millions of years ago. There are four caves and a large lake, made all the more magical by the special lighting and a classical music concert from a quartet right in the very depths of the caves.

Usually, vendors are happy to give you a small taste of cheeses, olives, breads and so on, before you buy.'Majorca's markets are famed for their variety and freshness of the produce on display.
