Palma Mediterranean cooking class at Omare: hands-on fusion meal with included wine, beer, soft drinks, and recipes to take home.
“I loved the fresh local ingredients, the friendly and engaging atmosphere, and the incredible flavours in every meal.”
Palma cooking class in a small group, starting at Mercat de S’Olivar and ending with a 7-dish full meal plus drinks in 3 hours.
“We did this cooking class when our cruise ship stopped over at majorca for the day. It was an incredible experience which the whole family enjoyed. There were several dishes and we each got a chance to cook a dish under the expert guidance of our chef, Mily, and assisted by Andres. I cooked a sausage dish and my wife the paella, the kids did the cerviche as there were no flames in this dish. There was also a spanish omelette as well as a full tapas board that covered cured meats, breads, cheeses- the team provides explanation and instruction on each tapa and then you could mix and match…”
Hands-on Spanish cooking in Palma with a small group, 7 dishes, full meals, and open-bar wine, plus recipes you can remake at home.
“Very good cooking class with very nice dishes and a very good service! Small group sizes and very modern kitchen. Would totally recommend!”
Cala Millor trike tour with Sant Salvador views and Porto Cristo grotto stops. Small groups, helmets and water included. Class B license enough.
“Great!! Tour guide Mike has a great personality and the tour with him was a lot of fun. After a short test run/instruction we went to 3 great viewpoints. The trip in the trike can be highly recommended. The provider is great! And our 9-year-old son really enjoyed it and it left a lasting memory.”
1-hour private stand-up paddle lesson off Palma Bay from Can Pastilla. Learn technique, get gear, lockers, Wi-Fi, and stunning views for $34.
“Goid instructor. Think beginners would be better learning on water close to land first where its calmer. Definitely going to try again”
Palma market stroll and 4-course cooking workshop with local ingredients, small group, and lunch plus two glasses of wine in English.
“Wonderful experience. Deborah was a great hostess. Very informative about local culture and cuisine. The studio where we cooked was beautiful. Enjoyed the cooking experience. I highly recommend this”
Cala Millor Trikke tour with Porto Cristo cliffs, Bonany and Sant Salvador viewpoints, Cala d’Or bays, and Sa Cova Foradada caves.
“Die Tour kostet direkt beim Anbieter 10 % günstiger. Leider entspricht die Beschreibung bei Viator nicht der Realität. Die Tour dauert keine 4 Stunden und es handelt sich um eine andere Strecke. Die kleine Kinder ab 4 J. (wie in der Beschreibung steht) dürfen nicht mitgenommen werden! Am liebsten direkt beim Anbieter kaufen und alle Fragen vor Ort stellen.”
Small-group Palma market visit at Mercat de L'Olivar, then cook a 4-course Mallorcan meal at Forn de sa Llotgeta with local wine.
“Fantastic introduction to Mallorcan cuisine with history included. Great group - nice and small only seven total. Delicious food. Would highly recommend.”
SUP lesson in Puerto de Alcudia: learn balance and paddling in a calm bay, then practice on a private beach for 1.5 hours.
“Great fun, good instruction, even our 7 year old was up and paddling after 30 minutes”
Mallorca pottery workshop in an old olivar with Tramontana views. Learn hand-building, make your own piece, and sip hot drinks.
“The view from the location is beautiful, and the workshop was fun. We were a small group of four, so it was a bit more personal, and Jessica is very kind and helpful when it comes to struggling with artwork. The route was a bit tricky for us to find, as it's a bit hidden. But Jessica was immediately available, and we found the location without any problems. Your clay artwork won't be fired on-site, so if you're on vacation here, it's important to consider how you'll transport it back home. All in all it was a wonderful experience.”
Private beginner windsurf lesson in Ca'n Pastilla, Mallorca. Small group, all gear included, coach guidance, 1.5-3 hours, $85.
Morning Vinyasa yoga at Es Trenc near Sa Rapita. 75 minutes of flow by the sea, led in English or German for all levels.
“It was really such a great morning yoga class on the beach. The atmosphere is so special at sunrise. I can only recommend it to everyone!”
Unwind with a 75-minute anti-stress Relax Yoga class in Ses Salines, taught in a magical 17th-century townhouse setting near Es Trenc.
“By chance we had a private lesson, we were given a warm welcome and our yoga needs were taken into account. We had a wonderful, relaxing time doing yoga in Ses Salines! We'll be back on our next holiday in Mallorca!”
Every kind of day out on the island, and the best of each.
