Mallorca<\/strong><\/a> is a uniquely charming island: enchanting coves, villages tucked away in valleys, exquisite Mediterranean cuisine\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Cala<\/a><\/p>\n

If you want to make your holidays unforgettable, pay attention to this post because today we’re going to propose five plans you won’t be able to refuse<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Palma<\/a><\/p>\n

The first is a visit to the Bellver castle with a picnic.<\/strong> It’s an old fort with a curious circular structure, and it has the best views of Palma Bay. You can go by car or by taking a pleasant walk through the woods around it. Why not prepare a snack and eat it there while enjoying the spectacular views?<\/p>\n

\"Banyalbufar<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re a nature lover, you’ll love this plan: hiking in the Serra de Tramuntana mountains<\/strong>. You’ll discover a natural paradise which has been declared a World Heritage Site. You’ll see wonderful trails and charming villages that time seems to have left behind.<\/p>\n

\"sobrasada<\/a><\/p>\n

Try some of the local delicacies<\/strong>: sweet pastries like the ensaimada<\/em><\/strong> or coca de patata<\/em>, sausages like sobrassada<\/em> <\/strong>or camaiot<\/em>, and dishes like frit<\/em>, tumbet<\/em> or sopes mallorquines<\/em>. In towns like Binissalem and Valldemossa, or in Palma’s city centre, you’ll find restaurants that make these delicious dishes.<\/p>\n

\"Valldemossa<\/a><\/p>\n

One village you don’t want to miss is Valldemossa<\/strong>. Explore everything from its Charterhouse down to the last corner of this picturesque village that has managed to retain its charm despite adapting to tourism. Don’t forget to have a coca de patata<\/em>, a sweet pastry<\/strong> typical of this place; wash it down with an almond ice, it’s delicious.<\/p>\n

\"Soller<\/a><\/p>\n

If your dream is to travel back in time, do it in a wooden train<\/strong> built in 1912. The route goes from Palma to S\u00f3ller<\/strong>. Just being in the station takes you back to another era. When you reach the town, you can take the trolley to the port. And don’t forget to order a fresh-squeezed orange juice in one of the cafeterias on the main square. The oranges of S\u00f3ller are famous for their flavour.<\/p>\n

\"Palma<\/a><\/p>\n

We have several hotels in Mallorca<\/strong>, and they’re the ideal starting point for these day trips. Stay at the Riu Bravo<\/strong><\/a>, Riu San Francisco<\/strong><\/a>, Riu Playa Park<\/strong><\/a>; pick whichever one you like best. Got to RIU Hotels & Resorts<\/strong><\/a> now and reserve your room. Hurry because places fill up fast.<\/p>\n
