What to expect

This excursion captures the magic of Majorca by combining some of the north's best attractions. You'll visit a farmers' market and get to know the craggy coastline of Cape Formentor, a narrow, pine-studded peninsula populated by wild herb-munching wild goats. Lluc, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘One Spanish phrase worth remembering for your market trip is “Un poco para probar, por favor”, which means “A little to try, please”. Usually, vendors are happy to give you a small taste of cheeses, olives, breads and so on, before you buy.'

Majorca's markets are famed for their variety and freshness of the produce on display. Spend a morning browsing one of the most popular weekly farmers' markets, waking up your senses with colourful displays of fruit, the aroma of freshly baked local pastries and local vendors calling out their best deals. These markets are usually set up on the church square in the villages. Lluc adds, ‘The stallholders selling just a few different types of seasonal fruit or vegetables are the ones who grow their own produce – and usually the best value.'

We'll then journey by road to Es Colomer viewpoint for a brief photo stop en route to Formentor beach. The curved, pine-fringed sandy bay boasts clear water and makes a great place to enjoy some free time. Refreshments are available at a beach café, and you can secure your table for lunch by choosing the ‘lunch included' option. On the return journey, you'll travel by boat back to Port de Pollença.

Nat Geo Day Tour: The Valley of the Oranges

Picturesque hills and aromatic citrus orchards best describe Sóller. From Palma de Mallorca, travel into the Serra de Tramontana mountains, where you'll discover this eye-catching town, nicknamed the 'Valley of Oranges'. Historically, Sóller was isolated from the rest of Mallorca due to its mountains, allowing the development of unique cultural and agricultural practices. Sóller's orange groves trace their roots back several centuries, introduced to the region by Arab settlers during the Spanish occupation. On this exclusive tour, you'll uncover the region's conservation initiatives with your National Geographic-trained guide, visiting the Balearic Museum of Natural Sciences for an exclusive audio-visual experience including photos illustrating the history of the orange groves and their impact on Sóller's local economy. After this, tour Sóller's citrus-infused Botanical Gardens, where you'll study the botanical properties of different citrus varieties, enjoy an exclusive visit to the seed bank and learn more about the museum's work to conserve the Balearic Islands' plant species, unique ecosystems and natural habitats. Finish with a cooking demo featuring a zesty dessert with a citrus tang. Next, discover Sóller's secrets on a guided walking tour, before stopping by Sa Fàbrica de Gelats, an ice cream Parlor featured in National Geographic España as one of the best spots for orange-flavoured gelato. Finish with some free time to explore at your leisure.
