Authentic Majorca Almond Blossom Tour

From rustic rural villages and history-packed towns to camera-grabbingly good viewpoints, this tour takes in some of Majorca's best-kept secrets. But the real star of the show is the scenery. You'll see the likes of Valldemossa, Arta and Petra. And, if you join us towards the end of January and February, the island's almond trees are in full bloom, carpeting the landscape in row upon row of pretty pink and white flowers.On this tour, where you visit in the morning depends on where you're staying. From the south, you'll start the day driving through the scenic southwest of the island. There'll be free time to explore the culture-rich village of Valldemossa, plus a trip to Torre del Verger watchtower for some knockout views over the coast.From the east, Finca Son Real, a Majorcan country house turned museum is on the agenda, followed by a visit to the town of Sineu, right in the middle of Majorca, for a chance to take a look around its market – it's one of the biggest on the island. In the afternoon, both tours include a tasty tapas lunch alongside visits to Petra, Bonany Monastery and the convent of San Bernardino, too.
