What people are saying about Palma Cathedral

I only had two days in Palma and decided to book this activity for one of the days! I was not disappointed. GYG well organised this outing, and it was easy to find the starting point. The Catamaran travelled across the bay, where we stopped for a swim and lunch. The food was good, and plenty of it and the place where we stopped to swim were beautiful. The staff was friendly. They played upbeat music, and we returned as the sun went down, experiencing the most beautiful sunset over Palma's skyline. For me, this outing was the perfect way to spend one afternoon in Palma de Mallorca.

Excellent tour, great driving experience, our leader was great and always warning us ahead of traffic and road conditions, took us to some very unusual spots for view, nice tour to a cave too. We loved the elec vehicle, nice and smooth, great that we were in shoulder tourist season, didn’t have to use air conditioning, only consumed less than 30% of elec for the whole 3 hour tour

The bikes were in good order and we could try them before starting the tour. We were the only two who booked the tour that they, so it became a private tour. Most of the cycling is done on pavement and in the old city, so not much in car trafic. And also not much hill up.

Great guide with very good English. The only minus are the tapas. We thought that we would do several short stops tasting on the way and not alone at the end of the tour. Pointless and not worth the money.

Great, informative tour! Good pace of biking to stopping and explaining the sites.
