Review of Mallorca’s one-day tour by coach, boat, tram, and vintage train, with practical advice on scenery, timing, value, and drawbacks.
“Majorca sightseeing with boat and vintage train was an amazing all day tour. Our tour guide Pepe was good too. The winding roads by bus was a thrill in itself. We saw the Black Madonna, the boat ride along the rocky coastline and the vintage train.”
Ride Mallorca’s vintage train, Sóller tram, and coastal boat to Sa Calobra, with free time for beaches, food, and Torrent de Pareis.
“Great trip. Easy to locate tickets and well worthwhile. If you are doing other boat trips, i would recommend staying for the day at Port de Sóller - it’s a lovely beach and strip and we didn’t get to spend much time there. But trip recommended either way.”
