Palma de Mallorca: We begin our tour by driving to Bellver castle with its unique circular-shaped Gothic construction and panoramic views across the bay, and then we proceed to the Cathedral and Almudaina Palace which was once a fortress and home to the Kings of Majorca. We then walk to the gothic Quarter to view Casa Oleza and Casa Berga, both these impressive buildings are fine examples of the mansions built in Majorca’s golden age. Caves of Drach: We head to the eastern side of the island where we pass through small towns on our way to Porto Cristo where the Caves of Drach are located. Once inside these impressive caves we can see the largest subterranean lake in the world, Lake Martel. We also attend the famous underground classical concert, where we will experience one of the most impressive natural sound systems, lighting and moving concerts in the world.
