By rail · MALLORCA TRAIN TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 9 mallorca train tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before the seat is booked.
Travel independently from Palma or Son Sardina by 1912 wooden train, historic tram, and boat. See Sóller, Port de Sóller, Serra de Tramuntana, and Torrent de Pareis, with up to 3.5 hours at Sa Calobra. No guide is provided, so you manage the connections yourself.
“I had an excellent experience - truly a wonderful adventure! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for something memorable and exciting.”
Travel from Alcúdia or Marratxí to Valldemossa, Sóller, and Port de Sóller with an English or German-speaking guide. You’ll ride the historic Sóller tram, see Picasso ceramics and Miró paintings, and have free time for coffee, lunch, shops, and sightseeing.
“Fantastic day out, good value for money and stress free. Caterina was so lovely and gave us lots of information on where we visited. We had ample time to explore at each stop. Miguel was a very experienced driver, keeping us safe on the narrow roads. Definitely recommend this tour.”
Spend about nine hours crossing Mallorca by air-conditioned bus, vintage train, wooden tram, and boat. Visit Sóller, Port de Sóller, La Calobra, and Torrent de Pareis with a multilingual guide. Ariane is one guide praised for clear explanations in several languages. Bring swimwear and a towel.
“A fantastic trip, we thoroughly enjoyed our day. Cannot fault. Thank you.”
Spend eight hours crossing Mallorca by air-conditioned coach, boat, historic tram, and wooden train. You’ll see Cuber and Gorg Blau Lakes, Sa Calobra, Port de Sóller, and Sóller with a multilingual guide such as Sebastian, Carmen, or Antonio. Bring lunch money and prepare for winding mountain roads.
“guide was excellent and helped everyone. transfers from each trip was seemless, the boat trip was nice but just a little boring, no commentry during the trip. Train was enjoyable but space was tight. Very good day overall.”
Travel from Palma to Sóller on the old Red Lightning train, then see Port de Sóller, Deià, and Valldemossa by tram, minibus, and on foot. Guides such as Michael, Sven, Olaf, and Carolin are known for warm, informative hosting. Expect tapas, mountain roads, and a full but rewarding day.
“Our guide Michael was excellent, filling us in with the history of places, wound through with entertaining 'back stories'. Only criticism is that I went to the main station where the staff were somewhat confused about the type of trip, until they found an English speaking woman (I wish I had taken a mote of her name) who, on seeing the email I had been sent, took us direct to where Michael was waiting. So, perhaps supply the guide with mobile phone numbers of participants, just in case. This trip was the highlight of my one week stay.”
See Mallorca by air-conditioned coach, boat, vintage tram, and Sóller train on this eight-hour trip. Visit Sa Calobra and the Torrent de Pareis, then cross the Tramuntana mountains toward Sóller and Palma. Guides such as Vivian and Carmen lead multilingual groups, but timing and pickup can be uneven.
“Very large group. Leader was not friendly. Although advertised in English, leader spoke in 3 languages. Only gave directions about when/where to meet. No interesting facts shared with the group about Mallorca. A young woman sitting at back of bus was vomiting and leader wouldn’t let her move up because “those seated up front paid more” which was not true. Overall I would NOT recommend this tour. Most of the time spent on vehicles when no interesting facts about Mallorca were shared by the leader.”
Travel from North Mallorca resorts to Palma, then take the full vintage wooden train to Sóller, pause for gelato and the town square, and ride the historic tram to Port de Sóller. English and German guides, including Katharina on recent departures, keep the half-day trip organized.
“Katarina was a wonderful guide who is very passionate about the island and also ensuring that everyone has an enjoyable trip. I just wish we had more time in each of the stops.”
Spend 510 minutes crossing Mallorca by air-conditioned coach, boat, tram and the 1912 Sóller train. A live guide in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish leads you from Lluc Monastery to Sa Calobra, Port de Sóller and Sóller, with free time at each stop and no shopping detours.
Travel from Palma toward Sóller on a century-old wooden train, then take the historic tram to Port de Sóller. A guide handles the route, but the five-hour schedule can feel rushed, with little time for meals, shopping, or independent sightseeing.
“L'excursion en elle-même est très sympa. Le gros regret, c'est le peu de temps libre accordé, cela ne donne pas le temps de faire quoi que ce soit, c'est dommage. Celui qui a une voiture de location, il vaut mieux procéder de cette manière pour y passer la journée.”
