DAYS 2 TO 7 Santa Ponsa
Free to relax and enjoy our programme of included excursions:
Sa Trappa Walk - On this three-quarter day excursion, we head by coach to the island’s north-west coast where we start our exciting and demanding walk to Sa Trappa and the ancient ruins of the nearby monastery. We then head back down the hillside to the picturesque coastal resort of Sant Elm, where the coach will be waiting to take us back to our hotel (approx. 3 hours’ walk).
Palma City Tour - A full day excursion to Majorca’s beautiful capital city. We feature a guided walking tour in the morning to see the main sights and also stray 'off the beaten track' to discover a few lesser known attractions (approx. 2½ hours’ walk). The afternoon is free for you to explore further at your own pace.
Soller & Fornalutx - This full day tour features a coach transfer to the city of Palma where we take a wonderful ‘old style’ train up into the hills to Soller. After free time here we enjoy a walk to the small village of Fornalutx, which nestles in a valley within the Serra de Tramuntana. From here we travel by coach to Lluch to visit the abbey, followed by a short walk into the hills (approx. 2 hours’ walk). Return to the hotel by coach.
Valldemossa & Deià - A visit to this beautiful hilltop town with its pretty narrow streets. Take a walk down to the cove, before the coach takes you to the village of Deià, where you can explore the cobbled streets and hidden alleys. Walk on to Llucalcari, where Picasso once lived (approx. 3 hours’ walk). Return by coach to the hotel.
Inca Market - This three-quarter day trip to the market in the town of Inca gives you a real taste of life in rural Majorca. On the way back to the hotel we visit Santa Maria to enjoy a wine tasting.
Enjoy a farewell drink on your final evening.
