Palma de Mallorca - Our tour kicks off at Camí de la Escollera, right in front of the Cathedral of Palma, around 09:15 hrs. Palma originated as a Roman camp built on the remnants of a Talaiotic settlement. The city endured several Vandal invasions during the decline of the Western Roman Empire, was later reclaimed by the Byzantine Empire, then colonized by the Moors (who named it Medina Mayurqa), and finally, in the 13th century, by James I of Aragon.

Soller - Soller is a charming village situated three kilometers from the Port on Mallorca’s northeast coast, recognized as the commercial and cultural hub of the Serra de Tramontana. It lies in a valley encircled by mountains known as ‘el valle de Los Naranjos’ (the valley of orange trees). The picturesque central square, the village’s main gathering spot, is surrounded by numerous small, cobbled streets. Upon arriving in Sóller, the commercial and cultural heart of the Sierra, we are welcomed by the main square of Sóller, ideal for sitting on a terrace and admiring the church of San Bartolomé and the Banco de Sóller building.

Port de Soller - The Port of Sóller is a stunning natural harbor located in the island’s northwest and a significant tourist attraction. This small gem, once coveted by privateers, offers a unique landscape where the scent of orange blossom blends with the sea breeze. The port and the town of Sóller are linked by an old wooden tram that retains its original aesthetics and decoration, which we can appreciate while strolling along the bustling promenade of the port.

El Tren de Soller - On October 4, 1913, Mallorca’s first electric tram line was inaugurated, running between Sóller and Puerto de Sóller. The construction of the Sóller tram began after the Palma-Sóller railway line was completed. The project for this line was designed and overseen by Pedro Garau, with 4,868 meters of track laid. The iron bridge over the Torrent Major is a notable feature. Initially, the tram had a power plant at the Sóller station, powered by a 65-horsepower explosion engine that operated with a Siemens-Schuckert dynamo, providing 600 volts of direct current. Although the Sóller tram was intended for passenger transport, it was also used to carry goods to the port.
