Ride a bike, so worth it! - This was a wonderful tour, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and very calm. Riding a bike in Mallorca is the best was to see the city, especially if you have a short amount of time. The Taps and wine were fantastic! Highly recommended!

Fantastic tour - This was an excellent tour, our guide, Sergio, was very informative and amusing. The tour was at a steady pace so would be easy for anyone not used to riding a bike. At the end we had a lovely tapas with the other members of the group. A thoroughly enjoyable trip and definitely worth paying the extra for the tapas.

Perfect excursion - Did this as an excursion on our cruise and it was AWESOME. Jonas was our guide and was funny, informative, and a great guide. The bike ride wasn't bad however we went on a Sunday so it was much less traffic. Something to consider. Tapas was excellent and Jonas has good recommendations for places to see if you stay in town after the tour

Great way to visit - This was a great ride. We were a small group (6) of various ages and abilities. The guide took breaks to keep everyone together along the route.
The scenery was beautiful and we heard a lot about the city's history. Unfortunately the tapas restaurant was closed the day of our ride :(
Would highly recommend!

Educational bike ride and tapa sampling in Palma - The ease of the bike ride around the perimeter of the cathedral and castle, along with history. Our tour guide was knowledgeable. The tapa samples and glass of wine was a nice way to end our experience.
