Top Mallorca Private Sightseeing Tours - page 5

We’ve all done bus tours, being herded from one stop to another, chance to buy goods you regret after. None of this here. Enjoy a tour of the island, stops for refreshments and to view the scenery… ‘free air conditioning’ was perfect as it was a very hot morning

First off -- riding an e-bike is easy, and makes you feel like a superhero when you hit any hills. It allowed us to ascend up to the castle overlooking the island without a problem! If you haven't ridden a bike in a long time -- it'll be fine. It's just like...riding a bike. The island is beautiful, and the sites we biked to were phenomenal -- squares, churches, a convent (this was a surprising highlight for all of us), and the medieval castle. Mario was a great storyteller, a knowledgable expert on the history and sites, and a patient guide willing to adapt and make sure we were happy! We were able to find the meetup spot easily, and got fitted for helmets/bikes within minutes. NOTE: We did our tour on a Sunday, and we were SO happy that was the case. The city streets during the first part of the tour are a little tight, so weekday traffic might have made things a little more challenging, so if you can -- shoot for a Sunday. Kudos to Mario. HIGHLY recommend this tour!

This was great fun - and we had great weather. We were collected, taken to a point near where we would be going and had to walk a bit - so do take note. Not strenuous, but when they say don't take flip flops, do yourself a favour and don't wear flip flops. The cliffs near the water are harder to navigate if you don't have the right footwear. Also, we were a little unprepared on the fresh water front - which was our fault completely. Take enough water with you - the sea is salty and swimming takes more out of you than you think. We were helped along, and could make our own decisions as to height - no one forced us to do anything we were not comfortable with. The lowest jump in our group was 4m and our highest was 6m - but there were plenty of places where you can go higher if you wanted to. And they all were very supportive. We ended the experience with a zipline jump into the water, which I'd never done before. There were three guides with us on our visit, but we were three groups and they interchanged between us as needed. Aina, Nico and Faco were all great. My friend sadly lost her glasses after a few jumps (they were in a pocket on her life jacket), which unfortunately cut her experience short and she enjoyed some sunshine on the rocks instead (very graciously). However, as luck would have it, Faco found them for us again after he'd finished with his group, which was a huge help as she had no spare glasses with her and did need them. Thank you, Faco! I really do recommend this, if for nothing else a swim in the sea - which I had forgotten how much I love it!
