Travel from the port of Palma de Mallorca into the heart of the Tramuntana Mountains, passing ancient olive groves first planted in Roman times. Your journey leads to Valldemossa, a picturesque mountain village perched 400 metres above sea level and famed for its peaceful charm, stone houses and flower‑lined streets.
Explore the historic Carthusian Monastery, including its old pharmacy, tranquil monastic areas with sweeping mountain views, the Municipal Museum, and the Palace of King Sancho, once a royal residence. Afterwards, enjoy free time to wander the village, browse local shops or relax in a traditional café.
The tour concludes at Son Marroig, former home of Archduke Luis Salvador of Austria, where you’ll enjoy one of Mallorca’s most spectacular views over the island’s dramatic northern coastline—a memorable end to a scenic and cultural experience.
