Eulàlia was a wonderful host - a 5 star tour! - This was a 5 star tour hosted by Eulàlia who was so informative. It was a very personalised tour, relaxed, and we learned so much about the history of Palma, the Old Town and fhe Cathedral.

Our guide was an actual... - Our guide was an actual historian with amazing knowledge of the local area and history of the cathedral. Euliala didn’t rush us though and we had a perfect small group. She took time to make sure we had shade and time to sit if needed and she engaged us by asking what we thought of the art pieces and different architecture eras. We had a wonderful wonderful time.

Palma Cathedral and Palma Old Town - First time visiting the Cathedral and Palma old Town. The cathedral was worth spending 25€ entrance fee for th cathedral with the rooftop views and the museum and the crosswalk. Be prepared to climb the approximate 150 steps up the stairs to be on the rooftop but you won’t regret it, especially if the weather is sunny!

Great cathedral, unique experience, magical place! - After 8 years of Mallorca, we managed to visit the Cathedral of Palma and Palma city for the first time. An extraordinary structure, beautiful me details—inside and out. Tickets bookable online, in front of the entrance are signs with QR codes. That's where his time slots met. Insider tip: in sunshine around 11am to the cathedral...the colorful church window forms a beautiful color pattern inside on the benches and allows great photo motifs. Magic Moments…:)

Should you make and yet belongs to a malle visit - This is a must for Palma. Ticktes completely unproblematic via online or directly at the checkout next to it. The ascent to the observation terrace costs extra, which should be considered when booking. Please pay attention to the clothing (see info on the Website). Inside, you should take your time, maybe an hour, because it is an impressive building. Afterwards a few photos before on the stairs or/and a hop on/off city tour. Worth it too; station is right next to it. If you arrive by rental car, it is best to park for 5 €! all day in the Sa Riera car park and walk there for about 25 minutes by means of Google maps, also coming through significant streets of the city.
