The programme

In Valdemossa, one of the most beautiful towns in Majorca, you'll visit the Cartuja, the former hunting reserve of King Sancho that became a Carthusian monastery in the 15th century. Valldemossa is also famous for the "coca de patata", the traditional brioche that's ideal as a "quick bite" as this snack is referred to here.
Accompanied by the guide, you'll then arrive in the town of Sóller, in the "valley of oranges" or "golden valley". Here you'll find the juiciest and most aromatic oranges in Spain. Also produced here is a fruity distilled liquor called Angel d'Or.
Last stop, external visit to Palma Cathedral, a majestic example of the Catalan Gothic style. You'll also see the exterior of the adjacent Almudaina Palace, former residence of the Kings of Majorca and, earlier still, an Arab fortress.
