All in one a very nice day trip with a nice multilingual tour guide. However, you should reconsider the timing in the respective places (less time on the market, more time in Alcudia). In addition, you spend a lot of time on the bus, so nothing for frequent walkers.

The tour was great, but the seating took some getting used to, as it was like sitting on a saddle. The Captain was super helpful and very entertaining. The tour is also suitable for children, my 10 year old loved it! All of our expectations were met!

I absolutely loved our trip! There’s swimming opportunities, a lovely surprise not listed on here. We had the time of our lives and our host Andy was so knowledgable, polite & funny!

Very nice excursion, a great experience! And congratulations to the skipper! We recommend!

Travel companion Tolo was very nice and personable!
