The tour guide was very informative. We had a great time!
We felt like the tour was worth the cost and we got to see a lot of the island.
Zulema_V, Jun 2026
The tour was everything we expected. The bus was clean, the air conditioning was perfect. The tour guide was clear and knowledgeable. Palma de Mallorca was beautiful.
Ann_G, Jun 2026

Great experience loved Valldemossa. What a beautiful place. Very informative great tour guides and very considerate
Sharon_B, May 2026
Loved seeing Valldemossa but didn’t feel like there was enough time to explore the city, the guide had a tendency to walk and talk in busy area so the people in the back couldn’t hear
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for your feedback and kind words about Valldemossa.
The time there was provided in full accordance with the tour itinerary. Please note that the Additional Information section of this tour description clearly states that this tour is not wheelchair accessible and may not be convenient for people with limited walking ability.
Listening to the guide while being one block behind the group is understandably complicated. At the same time, we are not able to slow the standard group pace to the needs of guests who can hardly walk.
When booking future activities with Viator, we strongly recommend being mindful of fellow cruisers with limited time ashore and booking a private tour, which allows you to move at your own pace.
Safe travels.

Our tour guide was exceptional. He was very friendly, knowledgeable about Palma and had a great sense of humor. I would have given the tour 5 stars if we would have had a break for lunch or would have been able to stay longer in the charming villages we saw.
Martin_H, May 2026
Marvelous plus best tour director we’ve ever had and we have travelled and cruised a lot in the last 40 years! ( Gasper)

For some reason, Port security would not allow our guide to come to terminal 6 at the Port even though he regularly picks people up at terminal 1. For this reason, our tour began 30 minutes late, but it did not affect the total time of the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. Also very patient with some older people who were slow walkers. Would have liked a little more free time in Valldemossa but overall the tour was perfect and exactly what we had hoped.
Laura_D, Apr 2026
Gaspare is a Phenomenal tour guide! So funny, easy to understand and very informative. The tour highlights sone beautiful places but you are pretty rushed at each place. I definitely recommend this tour if you want to see a lot in a short time. It does have a lot of walking and stairs jus5 FYI.
Jeffrey_P, Apr 2026
Host was awesome! Fun of knowledge and extremely patient. Would love to have him host again! Beautiful sites and great history!! A+
Paul_A, Mar 2026
What can I say about this? It started with the bus was late. We stopped at a nice little town but not enough time to do anything. Then a lot of walking which was difficult, not worth the money at all!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We regret to hear about your disappointment, let me address all the concerns raised:
1. The tour description clearly states that this tour is not wheelchair accessible and is not recommended for guests with limited walking ability, such as yourself.
2. The time spent in Valldemossa is in full accordance with the schedule outlined in the tour itinerary.
3. Upon meeting your guide, you expressed dissatisfaction that this was a group tour, as you were expecting a private experience. Please note that private tours are clearly labeled as such in the tour title and are typically priced at least three times higher.
Booking through Viator further, we strongly recommend basing expectations on the tour description, itinerary, and inclusions rather than personal assumptions. Safe travels!
Laurence_F, Mar 2026
We loved it! Some of the older folks felt like it was a lot of walking, but the sights were amazing and we were so glad that we went!
Hisao_N, Nov 2025
We had a great experience with our guide Casper in Mallorca. He was full of humor, good spirit, and energy, with just non-stop talking. We admired how he herded a big group of more than 30 people, some of them
"independent minded", forcing him to keep counting how many are still together.
Mallorca was surprisingly large and modern but beautiful and full of charm nonetheless, especially away from Palma, a much bigger city than I had imagined. Just a note: he likes to quiz people on their knowledge.
We enjoyed the tour very much and recommend it highly for all.
Donna_R, Nov 2025
Gaspere was the most fun tour guide, and he knows the best pastry shops! We really enjoyed his knowledgeable history of Palma. Only wish we could afford to live there!
Kathryn_W, Nov 2025
This was a great tour! Gaspare was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. He has a great sense of humor. We got a good feel for Palma and Valldemossa when we only had a day to spend in Mallorca. Beautiful scenery and interesting history.
Valeri_H, Nov 2025
Jaspare was awesome…very informative and funny. The small town was beautiful as well as old town Palma.
J_S, Oct 2025
Despite booking for a 8.30am start, we were told to meet at 9.30am. The tour was described as being approximately 6 hours but upon picking us up the guide announced that we would be back in 5 hours. Ok never mind. The rest of the tour was pretty hectic with a lot of walking, with the guide Nico just leading the way and rattling off names, dates and facts. It felt more like a school trip with a teacher that didn't really care about toilet breaks or a lunch stop. By the time we were dropped off back to the ship, it was already close to 3pm and we were famished. Incidentally the tour was more expensive than the equivalent ship tour which was supposed to be for 4 hours but ended up being about the same duration according to some friends who were on that ship tour. I picked this tour over the ship tour hoping to have a more relaxed pace with the extra time promised but it never happened.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Let me address the points you raised:
1. The “Additional Information” section of this tour’s description clearly states: “Please note that the start time displayed on our website is a general estimate for the activity’s commencement and may not correspond to your specific pick-up time.” Pick-up times are always adjusted based on ship schedules and the start time chosen by the majority of participants.
2. The tour duration is stated as 5–6 hours, meaning it may last anywhere within that range. As you mentioned, your tour began at 9:30 a.m. and concluded at 3:00 p.m., totaling approximately 5 hours and 30 minutes, which is within the advertised timeframe.
3. Nico is a fully licensed and certified guide with extensive knowledge of Mallorcan history and culture, which he enjoys sharing with our guests. If you needed an additional restroom stop, you could have simply mentioned it—our guides are happy to accommodate such requests but they can’t read minds so far
4. This tour does not include a scheduled sit-down lunch, but guests have free time in Valldemossa to enjoy a meal or refreshments, as most participants did.
5. One of the key differences between our tours and ship-organized excursions is group size and depth of experience. We limit our groups to a maximum of 18 guests to ensure a more personal and enriching experience, unlike ship tours which run with 50+ participants on large buses and cover much less than we do
When booking future activities through Viator, we kindly recommend reviewing the tour description details to ensure they align with your expectations, rather than basing expectations on your personal assumptions. Safe and happy travels!

The tour was great. The guide Jennifer was very knowledgeable and full of information. It was. A great way to see sights in one day.
Emilio_M, Oct 2025
Excellent tour. Our guide was very knowledgable, outgoing, and had a friendly humor. The sights were great with free time allowed at each location.
Sarahni_P, Oct 2025
Gaspare was a fantastic tour guide! Very knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. We got to see and learn so much about Mallorca in such a short time. Definitely worth it!
Anthony_B, Sep 2025
The experience was very nice, although don't panic, if you don't see them at the exact time that they say they would be there. Sometimes they have stops before you and it may be delayed.A few minutes.
wisland3045, Aug 2025
What a fantastic tour! Gaspare is a very knowledgeable and personable young man. So informative and had a great sense of humor! He really made the tour fun! This tour was great for getting an overall feel for Palma and Valldemossa when you’re only able to stay for a day! We started the day by visiting the castle and getting a view of Palma. Then a trip to Valldemossa where we had a walking tour and a little free time. We ended up back in Palma and learned about its history along with the cathedral. The day ended with a short amount of time for some shopping. We would highly recommend this tour to everyone!
Syed_B, Jun 2025
Nicholas was a great guide who have us nice information who guided us around the important sites. Ideally would’ve liked to spend some more time in Mallorca but had to leave early as another party on our tour from another ship had to board earlier as they were departing at an earlier time.
Ykisha_W, Jun 2025
Positives: The tour guide was fun and knowledgeable. The trip to Valldemossa was beautiful.
Not so good: There were discrepancies with the times. The tickets said 10:30, the guide said 10. The van was not sufficient for a tour. It appeared to be a rental and possibly a cargo van. It was extremely hot. There were no air conditioning vents in the middle or rear of the van, only the front. In addition, our itinerary included admission to the castle and cathedral, but it was not honored.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you for your feedback — we’re glad to hear you enjoyed Valldemossa and our guide services. Please allow me to address the concerns you raised:
1. Please pay close attention to the Additional Information section of the tour description, which clearly states that the start time shown on your tour ticket may vary from the actual pickup time communicated to you by email and phone closer to the tour date.
2. The vehicle used was a passenger minivan, not a cargo van, and in fact had only 70 miles on it — practically brand new. The challenge was the unusually high temperature of 36°C (around 100°F), which can make short-distance transfers feel warmer than expected even with fully functioning air conditioning. It’s quite different from highway driving back home.
3. This tour does not include any admission fees, as stated in the itinerary and inclusions.
For future bookings, we recommend basing your expectations on the full tour description and the detailed pickup information provided, rather than personal assumptions. Wishing you safe and pleasant travels!
