The Nofrills Excursions team understand that planning a holiday is very important, and that visitors to the Island of Mallorca should leave with the best experience possible.
So for that reason we have combined using our own knowledge and feedback from our clients what they like to and have done whilst on holiday in Puerto Pollensa. Below you can find some of our suggestions which we think would be a great part of your holiday.
Day One!
Welcome to the beautiful Island of Mallorca!
For most travellers the day they arrive is about unpacking, getting used to the area and exploring the destination.
Day Two!
Explore the area!
Why not head out of town for a morning and visit the delightful neighbouring town of “Pollensa” renowned for it’s famous landmarks such as the Calvary Steps and Puig de Maria. This is a great way to journey back in time as you amble through the quaint narrow streets and get a sense of a fascinating Mallorcan Town.
They also have their own market on a Sunday morning between 09:00 in the morning and 14:00 in the afternoon.
The market in Pollensa is a popular attraction thanks to its vibrant atmosphere, local products and beautiful setting. Held at the historic square and it offers a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, artisanal goods, beautiful souvenirs and local products! The Pollensa Market is a MUST-VISIT for anyone wanting to explore the local flavors and crafts of Mallorca.
Or, why not take a pleasant walk to the secluded beach of Cala Boquer. Right from Puerto Pollensa this walk takes about an hour going and coming back.
Day Three!
Explore Formentor! Formentor is a stunning peninsula located in Mallorca, known for its breathtaking landscapes, dramatic cliffs, and crystal-clear waters. There are different ways to the stunning peninsula which is located just around the corner of Puerto Pollensa.
Formentor is a perfect destination for nature lovers, the area is also home to the iconic Cap de Formentor lighthouse and the beach of Formentor is known as one of the most beautiful beaches of the island.
There are different ways to go to Formentor. The ferry from Puerto Pollensa to the beach of Formentor takes about 25 minutes and is an ideal way to get yourself to this peace of paradise. A round trip around the Cap de Formentor lighthouse is another option and gives you scenic views and provides an unique perspective of the peninsula and its cliffs.
We should not forget to mention the viewpoint, Mirador Es Colomer: An observation point that provides spectacular views of the cliffs and ocean. Join a guided tour up to the viewpoint and combine this with the beach of Formentor, this combination of bus and boat exploring Formentor is a beautiful experience.
From Puerto Pollensa there are boat excursions available, they provide a scenic way to explore the stunning coastline, to enjoy breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Bay of Pollensa and its surroundings. Most of them offer stops for swimming and snorkeling.
During the GOLDEN HOUR Formentor gets completely magical, and that´s why you should consider an exclusive tour where you get to experience the most spectacular views of the island of Mallorca during the sunset.
Each way different experience, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of Formentor in your preferred way!
Day Four!
We suggest that you take a cultural trip into the heart of Palma! The Palmabus Tour from Puerto Pollensa offers guaranteed seats for going and return, a tour guide on board for helpful advice or tips, convenient and central pick-up and drop off in the very centre of the capital!
An upgrade is possible, enjoy a guided walk in Palma plus a priority entrance ticket with guided visit to the impressive Cathedral of Palma de Mallorca in the heart of the city. It is one of the island’s most iconic landmarks and a masterpiece of Gothic architecture.
There are many great places to grab a bite to eat in Palma and your guide will be more than happy to point them out.
Day Five!
One of the most popular things to do is of course the Island Tour. Many visitors consider it the highlight of their holiday. It is a fantastic way to experience the island´s diverse landscapes, rich culture and historical charm in one single day!
This trip has it all! We would like to recommend Nofrills Excursions to take you on this particular excursions as you will be taking away the stress and worry of organising bus and train times.
You will be driven through the Sierra de Tramuntana Mountains which is a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE offering stunning views and rugged cliffs. We visit Sa Calobra, Puerto Soller and Soller and this experience includes a boat ride, the tram experience and famous train journey as well! The boat ride takes you from Sa Calobra to Puerto Soller, once you arrive to Puerto Soller you will have free time and you will find delightful places to eat lunch at reasonable cost. Then, we enjoy the classic and historic tram connecting the port to the town of Soller. This journey feels like stepping back in time, just like the Vintage Train which we will be taking next. The Soller Train is a highlight, a wooden carriage that date sback to 1912, offering a scenic and nostalgic ride through tunners, valleys and orange groves.
