One of the best ways to understand a city is by exploring its streets, markets, and food culture. That’s exactly what this walking tour offers: a relaxed introduction to Palma combining history, local life, and gastronomy.
The experience begins at Plaça d’Espanya, Palma’s main transport hub and gateway to the historic centre. From there, your guide will lead you through the Old Town, sharing stories about Mallorca’s history, traditions, and how the city has evolved over the centuries. During the walk, you will pass through some of the most emblematic squares and landmarks of Palma while discovering areas that many visitors overlook.
Along the route we will explore places such as:
-
Mercat de l’Olivar surroundings, Palma’s main traditional market, where you’ll learn how locals buy fresh produce and choose quality products such as ham, cheese, and wine.
-
Plaça de Cort, home to Palma’s Town Hall and the famous ancient olive tree, one of the city’s most symbolic meeting points.
-
Plaça Major, once the city’s main marketplace and today a lively square surrounded by historic buildings.
-
Palma Cathedral (La Seu), admired from the outside while your guide explains its importance in the history of the city and Mallorca.
The tour finishes in a cozy local venue where you’ll sit down and enjoy a tasting of wine, ham, and cheese, learning about the traditions behind these iconic Mediterranean products.
