Mallorca

Mallorca

A Gothic capital built straight on top of a Moorish city, on the island that invented the package holiday and is still arguing about it. Palma rewards walking more than almost anywhere in the Mediterranean.

Banys Àrabs

landmark

Banys Àrabs

Behind that gateway, at the end of a garden of palms and lemon trees, there's a small square room with a dome on it. That's the Banys Àrabs. The Arab baths. It's about a thousand years old, and it is very nearly the last thing standing.

Basílica de Sant Francesc

landmark

Basílica de Sant Francesc

Big square, big Baroque front, one friar standing on a plinth out here in the middle.

Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo

landmark

Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo

Down this lane there's a café called Ca'n Joan de s'Aigo, which translates as the house of John of the Water. It has been open since about seventeen hundred, and the remarkable thing about it is how little anybody has done to it since.

Can Casasayas & Pensió Menorquina

landmark

Can Casasayas & Pensió Menorquina

Two buildings here, one on each side of the little street, and they are the same building twice. Same rippling stonework, same curved windows, same wave running along the top as if the whole façade is slowly melting.

Casal Solleric

landmark

Casal Solleric

The pale stone palace on the corner of the Born, with the deep first-floor gallery and the iron railing running across it, is the Casal Solleric — and it was paid for entirely in olive oil. That gallery is the thing to look at.

Catedral de Mallorca — La Seu

landmark

Catedral de Mallorca — La Seu

La Seu. The cathedral. Get close to the stone, because it's the colour of sand and full of shell fragments — it was quarried out of this island's own seabed, and in low sun the whole building goes gold.

Start Exploring Mallorca

Plan with confidence

Before you explore Mallorca

Which tour should I choose?

Compare the subject, neighborhood, duration, route, and exact stops on each tour page. Individual tours show their one-time price before you open the app.

Do I need to reserve a start time?

No. Start whenever it suits you, pause for food or a detour, and resume later. Check the opening hours of any venue you personally plan to enter.

What should I download before I leave?

Download the tour narration on Wi-Fi. Cached audio does not need to stream, though map tiles and other online features may still require a connection.

Are attraction tickets included?

No. Your purchase covers the Bad Historian audio experience. Transportation, food, and admission to third-party attractions are separate.
