Nus de Sa Corbata - The Nus de sa Corbata, the road that connects the Lluc road with sa Calobra, a road that combines ingenuity and an incomparable setting. An intricate road that accesses sa Calobra that has the famous curve in which the road passes under itself in a daring loop
Sa Calobra - Sa Calobra is an impressive set of two genuine Mallorcan beaches, sheltered between steep rocky cliffs, and divided by the Torrent de Pareis
Port de Soller - Port de Sóller is located in the bay of the same name, on the north coast of Mallorca. It is connected by road and by tram with the small town of Sóller, at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana.
Soller - Sóller is in fashion and it is not by chance. The small town that gives its name to the valley in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana combines landscape, heritage and a good offer of leisure and restaurants. Any traveler spending a few days in Mallorca cannot miss a visit to this villa surrounded by mountains just three kilometers from the sea.
El Tren de Soller - Just by crossing the threshold of Palma station you already feel transported back in time. The singular railway enclosure constitutes an oasis of calm and tranquility in the midst of the bustle of the city.

The station, located next to one of the nodes of Palma de Mallorca, Plaza de España, is made up of a modernist building with three bodies, the garage and the space for the tracks, where a locomotive or passenger wagon often rests.

If you arrive with enough time, from the platform, covered with a canopy that offers shade and shelter to the traveler, you can watch the coupling maneuvers of the truck to the rest of the convoy, a process that, between the trumpet calls of the signalmen and the deep beeps from the ancient machine, has been repeated daily for more than a century.

What's Included

In-vehicle air conditioning

Additional Information

Embark on a memorable journey across the island of Majorca. Relish in the sight of the Sierra de Tramuntana and its man-made lakes, a region recognized as a World Heritage site by UNESCO. The journey continues on the winding road of La Calobra, a marvel of engineering.

Upon arrival in La Calobra, marvel at its towering cliffs and crystal-blue waters. From the same port in La Calobra, we will set sail and follow the coastline till we reach Port de Sóller, the largest natural harbor in the Sierra de Tramuntana, cradled amidst the mountains.

At the port, we will take a tram that’s been in operation for over a century, for a scenic ride to the town of Sóller – a stone’s throw away from the port and regarded as one of Spain’s most picturesque towns. We will then hop on a vintage train from Sóller for a rewarding trip back to Palma, along old tracks that transport you back in time.

Our tour includes a boat trip. If the captain of the boat decides not to go out due to bad weather or rough seas, we will make an alternative route without a boat. The money will not be refunded if the boat is cancelled, since we will make an alternative route through the mountains.

Well organised day out - We took the trip via coach to soller train then on to tram ride boat trip and coach through the mountains. Pick up was prompt and the front seats had been reserved for us as my husband has mobility issues. The guide took a personal interest in looking after us really well. It might seem a bit off to some to be told to hush during the commentaries in four languages (so impressive) but we understood why as people chatter through everyone else's. Train ride was exhilarating. Very long black tunnel if you are afraid of that which we weren't. Tram ride cute and gave us insight into inland area and people's homes rather than hotels.Boat trip ended at idyllic little beach with time to swim or have lunch.drive through mountains hair raising but in a good way as driver excellent at negotiating hairpin bends and speeding cyclists. We thoroughly enjoyed it and felt well supported by vivienne and her umbrella guiding us. Just sad that so many people got off without tipping as a lot of effort went into it.
