This was a great quiet getaway from the crowds at Montserrat. There's lots of benches inside the galleries so you're able to relax and rest your legs. Clean bathrooms are also here! Well worth the admission fee of 8 euros.
Note: Visited in Jan 2020 but catching up on reviews because- COVID.

This was my 210 visited museum and easily one of my favorites. If you would like to digest all the art works on display properly, I would suggest to allocate 4+ hours. The Museum of Montserrat showcases a selection of the most outstanding artistic and archaeological heritage at the thousand-year-old Abbey of Montserrat. The museum contains six very different collections. Entrance cost was 8EUR and no queue for tickets. Visited during week time so maybe it is busier during the weekend but definitively not a museum to miss. Could easy rate the art display at a 5+ stars, easily compared to Rijksmuseum in Netherlands.

Fantastic art museum. We paid 7 euros each. We chose not to take up the audio guide, and we feel that we didn't miss out! It was a wonderful collection with some world-class artists, including Dali, Miro, and Garavagio (something like that). At the time, there was also the an exhibition of Picasso posters!
Paul Meagher — Google review
One of the best museums in Catalonia. Escape the tourist rush and long lines in Barcelona and visit this museum for some great art work from Spanish artists. Their collection on realism style is truly amazing. Artists have focused on nature and human portraits for the most part. The level of details in some of the paintings is just mind-blowing. There is audio guide available for the museum. You can also see a mummy from Egypt there.

Well I knew it wasn't nothing like Prado o Louvre, it's a small museum in the mountains. But after seeing it from inside I can only say What a shame I spent 8 euros for this. Just to bear in mind, Prado costs 15 euros, and there you will see dozens if not hundreds of first class works. Here you will get a bunch of not the second class but the third class works of mostly Spanish/Catalan artists. Yes they have a couple of names, but neither that Dalí nor Picasso didn't worth a visit. (The temporal Picasso exhibition neither.) In addition, many labels wasn't even translated, or didn't have a date (see fotos). The major part of the explications on the walls were in Catalan only. Honestly, I can hardly recall one more museum which would be so negligent and disrespectful towards the visitors. That said, again, it charges 8 euros, half of the price of Prado. (And if you are unemployed they give you... no discount.) Nevertheless, I'll say it's two stars experience and not one because both security persons we talked to were nice and willing to help. And because they have an amazing collection of icons, mostly from Russia and a bit from Greece. But again, no explanations in English or at least Spanish on the walls, only Catalan, and just a couple of very laconic labels for each 20 icons on the wall. Dear Museum, being a museum means not only expose what you have physically but as well to explain it, I mean every object must have a description, and must have it in all the official languages of the region plus English. Especially if you have so many foreigners coming each day. Shame on you, if you would have charged 2 euros for this I would say Oookay, but 8??!

It’s a nice little gallery with some big hitters on the walls. Admittedly for me the best thing about this (with a 9-month old in early July) was the air conditioning, bliss. Well worth the €8 entry. Joking aside it’s a good addition to the walk around the church.

I enjoyed the visit a lot. Especially that I was the only visitor ( I went right after they opened, in the morning on 23rd of December). The only disappointing thing was that Caravaggio's painting is currently in Milan.
Adam Soko?owski — Google review
I like the mix of sacred and secular works. For instance, just outside the room with the Byzantine icons you see statues of female nudes! (Google won't let me post them.)
When we were there we saw an amazing temporary exhibit of posters by Picasso.
I very much enjoyed the "modern" section (mostly 19th century with two Monets, a Renoir and a Sisley) and the Renaissance room with the breathtaking Magdalen by El Greco.
There is also an impressive collection of Egyptian and Babylonian artefacts.
Samuel Croteau — Google review
Despite being a conventional museum with artwork, painting and sculptures, they had arranged everything in an enjoyable way. There were a lot less people in this part of Montserrat which was unusual but regardless, if you are a fan if mid century paintings then it is worth the visit

The museum is worth every penny. The entrance fee of 8 euro provides an excellent value for money. The art offering is amazing, from paintings, sculptures to Middle Earth artifacts and religious objects. There was also a special exposition of Picasso event posters which was very interesting to see. The building is modern with different accessibility options. The free Montserrat app also covers the museum.
The Abbey of Montserrat is a historic monastery located in the Catalan province of Montserrat. It is one of Catalonia's most renowned tourist attractions and functions as a monastery for over 70 monks. The abbey is set against the backdrop of the majestic mountains of Montserrat and its interior is stunning, with ornate architecture dating back to the 15th century.
I booked a tour here from Barcelona. Didn't expect much but got an amazing experience. Great view from the top. Super quiet place. The day we were there was a bit busy because someone passed away. The view was amazing. From the abbey, there's a 20+ min walk to the cross where the view was superb. There were also free wine and cheese tasting at the market. Got a wonderful experience, meet great fellow traveller's here.

Lovely place to visit. Very busy at the time, transport in was easy and an experience. Taking the funicular to the top was an experience and we would recommend going to the top of the second funicular. Amazing views and a nice walk back down. We went on the weekend and watching the local people make human stacks was really good to watch. Again, go early as it was getting very busy around Sunday mass time.

This is a very special place. Take your time. Go early, get your tickets to tour the church asap. Go to the top top top on the tram and spend at least an extra hour up there. You can spend hours hicking! This is a full day trip. Go to the bar at the train station while you wait. Great people!
Donald Smith — Google review
I'd definitely suggest you to visit the monastery. Parking was €7 and it was easy to find and the entrance to the cathedral was €6 for adults and €5 for 7-16yo. Preferably buy tickets in advance.
Take at least half day if not a full day trip here, sit on the bench and just enjoy the wiev and scenery.

We took the Montserrat Monastery & Hiking Experience. It was fantastic. Our guide Roger was the best. He did such a good job of explaining the history, the geology, and the nature. He even spotted a wild goat for us. Hiking was almost all steep downhill, so make sure you are in shape for that. Beautiful vista's. Bus was very comfortable and driver was very skilled. Great value.

For Catalans and in general for all Spaniards, Montserrat is one of the most sacred places, both the mountain and the Benedictine monastery itself. Apart from having interesting architecture and history, it offers a simply wonderful panoramic view of Barcelona and the surrounding area. And if you go up with the small rail lift, you will be able to enjoy a view from above and the monastery itself.
Simeon Runyov — Google review
Plan for an early morning arrival to beat the crowds and enjoy everything Montserrat has to offer. The line to the Black Virgin is long, however the rooms and staircase you wait in are visual delights along the wait. Plan to spend 6-8 hours here and pack a picnic. The views are splendid and the gardens and paths are perfect places to eat and enjoy the views. Plan your return trip accordingly if you use the tram/train or you will get stranded.
Emily Fitzsimons — Google review
What a beautiful location. It takes quite a bit of effort to figure out what the best way is to arrive, and it also isn't cheap. The chapel and the Black Madonna are interesting but by themselves wouldn't be worth the effort. If you also visit the museum and do some of the hiking, then it is worth visiting! This excursion took us most of the day.
Cher Oliver — Google review
This was spectacular and well worth the trip. The energy in this place is palpable, the design and architecture is really beautiful and the way it is nestled in the unique mountain is amazing. So much to do on the site that 2 hours did not suffice. I will be back.

I was expecting to enjoy this excursion the least, but it was definitely a highlight of my trip. We were able to watch the boys choir perform and their voices were incredible. The interior of the church is beautiful. My favorite part was taking a tram into the mountains and taking in the views. Some of my best pictures were taken on that mountain. 10/10 would recommend you visit the Abbey.

We did not pay to enter the cathedral. The free access was enough for the family.
The ride up is absolutely beautiful. Totally worth the visit.

This is a multiple visit place,. First to see it, then to hear the choir. Then to visit and pray to the Black Madonna. Then to train the mountains where the Romans once worshipped Venus. Then to sit on rock platforms in the area that cleanse your negativity. Then to visit the tunnel where the Black Madonna was found. Then to try the cheeses and honey. It's a pilgrimage for sure, one of the best of its kind!

The monastery is located in a very cool place. Parking costs €7. We didn't buy a ticket to enter the monastery, so we enjoyed the surroundings of the monastery. There are several viewing platforms and a large courtyard in front of the monastery, which is free to enter. If you are already going there, I recommend hiking in the mountains, the trails start at the monastery.
Teele Hein — Google review
Truly spectacular. Speechless from the moment we walked in. There are many areas to check and take pictures. It’s a place of worship and you’ll need to be respectful and quiet. Book tickets in advance online and take them with you in your phone as they are timed entries. There are 3
Areas for the abbey, the main abbey, the side of the abbey when you can make an offering and the museum. All worth it.

The Montserrat Monastery is an awe-inspiring architectural wonder nestled amid beautiful mountains. The primary basilica houses the revered Virgin of Montserrat and provides stunning views of the surrounding peaks. The monastery is home to a 12th-century Black Madonna statue known as 'The Dark One' or 'Our Lady of Montserrat.' It's a famous local icon and a symbol of Catalan identity. During our visit, our tour guide informed us of Montserrat's world-renowned boys' choir and explained their training process in detail. We hope to witness their performance in the future. We decided to skip the museum since we had already visited all the famous museums in Barcelona before arriving here.

Visited on a foggy day and it was beautiful, not too hot. The views are gorgeous, both architecturally and scenery wise. The buildings are so beautiful, and we luckily went on a day where it wasn’t too busy. The bus ride up the mountain to get here was a bit windy, so be cautioned if you get carsick easily. Other than that, it is a beautiful sight to visit, would recommend

A long day to and from Barcelona. The Black Madonna is beautiful. The scenery to and from Barcelona to go there are awesome. It takes a couple of hours to arrive, visit takes several hours then ride back another couple hours. We were exhausted. We were exhausted once we got back, but it was worth the trip.

I had lovely weather on the day to the Montserrat and enjoyed the magnificent view from the mountain. There wasn't much crowd as the tour started early and it was great for photos and appreciation of the monastery. It was good advice to queue to see the Black Madonna first as the queue is usually long. It was terrific and I'm glad to see the Black Madonna at close proximity.

You'll want to spend more time than you have. We spent three hours here and were barely able to take in the highlights. The Abbey, of course, is stunning inside. And the views from the mountain are picture perfect. We did a short hike but definitely wished we could have spent more time and hiked farther and explored some of the other buildings here.
Ben Lake — Google review
One of our favorite stops during our visit to Barcelona. Highly recommend the Tot Montserrat ticket: it includes absolutely everything you need-train, funicular, cable car, museum, basilica, and return. The buffet lunch is amazing with items for every taste. We hiked to the top of the mountain and saw the small chapel and caves. The view is spectacular. The cable car going down from the monastery offered beautiful views too. Don’t forget to stop at the little bar by the train station for a drink and ice cream. Such a relaxing spot nestled in an olive grove. The proprietor will not let you miss your train, though I could have stayed to enjoy the view for hours! Highly recommend this incredible day trip from Barcelona.
Kate Summers — Google review
I decided to leave a review here because I want to give others more specific information ;) the place is definitely worth a visit. religious, natural, climbing a mountain - an incredible feeling and its own atmosphere. definitely recommend. from Barcelona, you can first take the metro to Plaza España, where you can take the P5 train. then there are different options - going up the mountain by cable car or funicular. it is better to go by funicular (more seats, more comfortable and convenient). you should not confuse the station yet, because you need to get to the station earlier to take the cable car. I recommend buying a ticket for 45 euros at the station before the train. there is a return train, funiculars. you can still go even higher up (this is another funicular and it is included in the price). this ticket is called Trans Montserrat. also included is the entrance to the Basilica and the Black Madonna. you have to pay separately for the museum. 20-30 minutes will be enough there, there are paintings by famous artists. there is also a cafe with a buffet (like 2 of them), affordable and fast. if you climb even higher, mountain lovers can climb even more on their own. that's why such reviews are highly recommended, you also need to pay attention to the departure time because funiculars and trains run once an hour.
Анна Ходзінська — Google review
Get there early. You can park along side the road and at the top is additional parking if you go early. Parking is 7 euros. Make sure you go straight to the guest information center. You'll be able to purchase all tickets here except the incline, which has its own ticket sales area.

San Maria de Montserrat is a true marvel of architecture nestled in a breathtaking location, making it a magnet for visitors seeking awe-inspiring beauty and spiritual fulfillment. While the crowds may be abundant, they only serve to underscore the profound impact this sacred site has on all who visit. Prepare to be swept away by the majesty of Montserrat, an experience that transcends the ordinary and leaves an indelible mark on the soul. Don’t forget to light the candle as well.

Absolutely stunning ! Beautiful monastery and Basilica almost 1000 years old. Home to Black Madonna or Black Mother, a representation of Virgin Mary. The top of the mountain is accessible via a funicular that has a max gradient of 65 degrees.
Puneet Gulati — Google review
Monserrat It's very beautiful, it's interesting the rock formation And to think that the sea used to be up there.
A recommendation is if you want to go up to San Juan or something like that, don't go up on the train (unless you are sick) what I recommend is to go around the mountain and go up to the viewpoint and then get off on the train or on foot which is the same and better. The view is amazing and of course you also get some exercise.
Angie Vanessa Villamil Ospina — Google review
This place is simply magical and mesmerizing! At SKY level altitude between unique rocks set, this is definitely a place to go.
The location is about 90 min from Barcelona, but the train system will take you there with only one switch to the monorail that takes you to the mountains.
Inside, there is a place to chill, to eat, to pray, and to hike. If you go with a tour, you might not have time for the hikes, but everything else will be ar reach.
There is also (at a separate cost) a small little train that takes you from the monastery to the top of the mountain.
Luis Ortega — Google review
A little to commercial for my taste. We caught the ques just right, so the lines were not that long. We didn't purchase a guided tour which would help if one doesn't know the history. We purchased tickets through turism barcelona and would need to add tour guide if desired. Hiked around the top and the views are amazing.

As a travel enthusiast, I recently embarked on a day trip to Montserrat from Barcelona, and the experience left me in awe. Nestled amidst the stunning mountains of Catalonia, Montserrat is a treasure trove of natural beauty, rich history, and spiritual significance.
The journey from Barcelona to Montserrat was seamless, with convenient transportation options available. Upon arrival, I was immediately captivated by the majestic rock formations that define the landscape. The rugged peaks, shaped by centuries of wind and weather, create a dramatic backdrop for the monastery perched atop the mountain.
The highlight of my visit was exploring the Montserrat Monastery, a place of pilgrimage and cultural significance. The monastery houses the revered statue of the Black Madonna, attracting pilgrims from around the world. The interior of the monastery is equally impressive, with ornate chapels, beautiful artwork, and stunning views of the surrounding mountains.
After visiting the monastery, I embarked on a hike along one of the many trails that crisscross the mountain. The scenic pathways offer breathtaking views of the Catalan countryside and provide a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
In addition to its natural beauty and religious significance, Montserrat is also home to the Montserrat Boys' Choir, renowned for its angelic voices. Catching a performance by the choir is a must-do experience, adding an extra layer of cultural immersion to your visit.
Overall, my day trip to Montserrat was an unforgettable experience that exceeded my expectations. Whether you're a nature lover, history buff, or spiritual seeker, Montserrat offers something for everyone. I highly recommend adding this enchanting destination to your itinerary when visiting Barcelona.

Medieval cliffside abbey with a grotto chapel, waterfalls & caves with stalactites & lakes.
Stunning place. However because of the drought this year, the water falls and the ponds are a bit dry. You better reserve a ticket one week before you go. Or u can sign up for entry but they only allow 200 people in there at anytime. So I waited for about 30 mins today to get in.

This is such a beautiful and peacefull location. The road to access it is a little scary but it has the most awesome view.

BV-1485, Km. 7, 08416 Riells del fai, Barcelona, Spain
Park Güell, located in Barcelona's Gracia district, is a renowned attraction showcasing the artistic brilliance of Antoni Gaudi. This verdant park, with its mosaic-covered buildings, sculptures, and staircases, offers panoramic views of the city and the Mediterranean Sea. Originally designed as an upscale residential complex by Eusebio Guell, it was transformed into a public park in 1926. The park combines natural beauty with Gaudi's distinctive style, fusing architecture seamlessly with nature.
This park has some great view of whole city and also all in sudden you feel like you are some different world surrounded by palm trees. I don't know how to describe the architecture of this place but it looks like to me like I am in Morocco. It's beautiful.
Sonika Prakash — Google review
The park sits on a hill top which provides a spectacular view over the city. The architecture, the design of the rocks , the benches decorated with colorful mosaic were beautiful and unique. The entrance fee is a reasonable €10.
But be aware it requires quite some walks. From the metro station it is about 15 minutes walks. There are lots of stairs to climb. Although there are escalators from the street to the park entrance, some sections do not work so you will have to take the stairs. After we reached to the top of the stairs, there is no clear sigh pointing to the park entrance. We ended up going to a wrong entrance which is for residents only. In the park some sections are not accessible so you will have to return back. The park could do a better job with signage.

This is a must in Barcelona! What an amazing park! The lovely views and incredible architecture make it a must-go-to place. Make sure to get tickets ahead of time and be there at the time marked on your tickets. This park has a limit on how many can be there at a time. You will not regret going!
Rosanna S?nchez — Google review
The park is rich in trees and clean. No map is provided at the entrance. It was suggested to use the app. Routes are not all suitable to pass from if you have a stroller or wheelchair. There is a slope at the beginning and a good number of steps are to be taken to visit and access the whole park. In my opinion I think it should be free to go inside. There are no animals so far. I saw only pigeons and three small parrots flying around. The restaurant inside was fully packed and the service is slow and the servers needs attention. Food is not expensive however the portions are small. It would be wiser to take a packed lunch with you. Take a good walking shoes and non slippery.

We had a local take us through the park and its important sights. We were here around sunset and ended up getting some great lighting as we hiked through the beautiful columns, the mosaics and sculptures. Whether you want to take in the history, the freshness, the quiet away from the city, or just walk around, this place has it all to provide a relaxing atmosphere.

The garden is big and has many sights to see, it is advisable to come here either in the morning or as out of season as you can, otherwise you can't see much of the sights due to tourists.
The architecture is impressive and placed perfectly around the park.

Absolute beautiful place to walk around. I loved the experience. The views are amazing, all over the city. Bring loads of water. There is a good few steep steps to climb, although thats to be expected . 10/10. Would definitely go back.

This is a renowned and picturesque park, masterfully designed by the legendary Antoni Gaudí. Its ideal location in the heart of Barcelona provides easy access via public transportation. It's a perfect destination for a day out with friends and family or a peaceful retreat if you're venturing alone.

So beautiful! Definitely get tickets in advance. I waited too long and ended up having to do a tour in order to get in. I really enjoyed the tour and the overall scenery. The cafe was super crowded, as was the main bathroom. Worth it though! Also, there are multiple entrances so make sure you go to the correct one!

Quirky place. Beautiful..buy tickets in advance. Also, plan for all of the hills, if you walk there and back. Depending on which direction you're coming from, there may be very steep hills or hundreds of stairs. The architecture is beautiful. Don't miss it.

It’s always a breathtaking experience coming here. As an architecture student it’s one of my favorite places to go. I definitely advice a guided tour and you will get to know all the details about this magical place instead of just going yourself and take a lot of photos. Take your time and walk around not only the colorful part of it but also the raw earthy side of the park.

This park is just so incredibly unique and beautiful. I could have wandered around there all day. The park itself is cool enough, but it also provides some spectacular views of the city. There was a flamenco performer and musician there when we went. The park can get crowded and tickets sell out, so be sure to reserve in advance
Joy Alvarez — Google review
The ticket it's cheap, the experience and the view are amazing. I was at the beginning of February and it's was crowded but not so much like we could still take photos, enjoy the nature and the view. Like most part of the city, the did some reconstruction so the museum in the building was closed. But the park is amazing, must see.

This place is a fantastic spot to walk around and see incredible views of the city. The park has many sights and provides many areas where you can rest, stop and take in the views. Tons of opportunities for good pictures as well. Highly recommend if you come to Barcelona.

Park Güell is set on a hill with nice views over the city. Entrance is 10 Euros but there is lots of interesting architecture to see and walks to go on within the compounds of the park. I would highly recommend a visit but beware some of the walks are quite physically demanding.

An absolutely incredible park with some amazing structures and mosaics by Gaudi. We somehow went to an entrance which was at the back of the park up a massive hill, so I wouldn't recommend going to that entrance if you have a problem walking up very steep steps in the heat. The rest of the park was absolutely gorgeous, you could spend all day there.
Rosa Brown — Google review
Lovely place but be prepared for a long walk. Take plenty of water on a sunny/hot day. Fantastic views of the city from several places. Has many well built walkway bridges to admire. Nice tiles mosaics view point. For those with walking difficulties, this will be hard.

Is really a masterpiece. Every corner, every inch is unique. Very very impressive structure and worth visiting. Actually is a MUST visiting place in Barcelona. I recommend to have a tour guide with you to explain the hidden futures of the structure and the engineering behind it. Book your tickets in advance!
Aris P — Google review
A wonderful experience, slightly different than almost 20 years ago when I saw it for the first time as you need to pay an entrance fee and most importantly you must book in advance as it sells out easily. A different type of park where the nature gets Gaudi's touch. Highly recommended.

It is a shame a 'park' is being turned into a tourist attraction with gated entry. Would've been the perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon if not for
i) the traveling time/cost
ii) ticket costs, and
iii) dealing with massive crowds
Manage your expectations and you might have an enjoyable experience

Walking shoes are a must.
The entry is on the right of the grand entrance. There are many ways to follow and look around. This amazing park. The grandeur, the architecture, the views and the photographs you can take are just spectacular.
There is a cafeteria and WC so you're sorted for the next few hours.

Book the earliest tickets. When entering the park(entrance #3 -the most easiest way to walk-downhill), go straight to “ginger houses”. It will be a huge queue after 9:30 there. So, I recommend to visit them first, then - walk through the park. Even in rainy weather in March, this place is worth to visit!

This is a chance to experience a creative view of architecture. The gardens are great to walk through, and the views across Barcelona are unrivalled. I booked my ticket online, and witnessed that anyone trying to get in without one were out of luck because they were 'sold out'.
Adam Baldwin — Google review
OMG! I can't say enough amazing stuff about this place!!! It was so interesting learning about the original plans for the park and seeing all the amazing designs. I LOVED IT! Definitely a highlight of our trip to Barcelona.
We got there early, which I recommend to attempt to beat some of the crowd. It fills up quickly. If you want to take pictures, get there before it opens and stand in line. When I go back, I'll know what areas to go to first because the area really does fill up fast.
I scheduled about two hours for us to spend there and wish I'd done more. In fact, I'd at least double that if you enjoy architecture and being outdoors even a little.
There's also a small bakery on site so you can grab a bite while you wander.
Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This is a WINNER!
Amanda Vosloh-Tedford — Google review
Definitely worth a visit. We got there by bus from the city. We visited it in February. Beautiful setting, I can only imagine what it looks like in spring/summer. Fascinating to experience the three viaducts, impressive small buildings with quirky details. Really nice place. The cafe had a reasonably nice selection at good prices. I will be back.

This park is a delight to walk around, there are different things to see to add to your enjoyment.
The benches to sit on are unique and done in Gaudi's style with lots of small tile pieces.
There is a very nice picnic area with benches to sit at.
There is only one cafe that we could see which was very pricey and best avoided.
There is an entry fee to enter the park so bear this in mind.

Another architectural masterpiece that cannot be overlooked. Highly recommended. Amazing view to the city as well. Make sure you get your tickets online and in advance. Will be more beautiful in a sunny day. Make sure to save some time to sit, relax and enjoy the view of the city.
Ali Lari — Google review
The place is unique and the architecture is interesting. The place looks nicer in reality and pictures kinds don't make the place justice.
The disadvantage is that the place is almost always crowded, the if you want to take pictures in the main spots, you will most probably have to wait in a queue for a few, or if unlucky, for over 10-15 minutes.
I'd say it's worth visiting if you are patient and not in a rush.
Busy beach with a lengthy expanse of sand & shallow water attracting families with children.
Beautiful beach with kitesurfing, kayak, paddle boarding and many beach clubs. A great vibe even better than sitges or neighboring beaches I would say. However not very touristy and not much to see it is more for locals or people from Barcelona who want to spend the day at the beach

Beach was pretty clean and not to many people. It was definitely a little colder than expected, but it was still a great day.

Clean beach. Very close to Barcelona Direct bus from Barcelona and T10 ticket works. Less crowded as compared to Barcelona beach. Designated beach zones specially for kite and wind surfing during autumn and winter season. Good restaurants at the beach. Train station around 1 km far. No public toilets. We encountered many jelly fishes during summer.
Pritesh Dhawle — Google review
This beach is awesome. It is far from Barcelona so it is not frequented by tourists and mostly locals visit this place. The beach has a string of restaurants along and around it. It is clean and the water temperature is just perfect(at least in July end)!!! It is not crowded and one can get a view if the hills and the sea. During the evenings one can find people come out with colorful canopies for paragliding. It can be a little inaccessible if you don’t have a car. The only way to reach is a bus or an uber(pricey 30-50€ from Plaza Sants). The fare is 2.20€ and it takes around 1.5hours each side. The bus back to Barcelona runs till very late in the night.

This beach is absolutely stunning. Sand is sand I did not stump my toe on a single rock or stone on the beach or in the ocean. There was no litter and nothing that looks out of place.
It's a looong beach so plenty of space if you want to find a quiet spot. There are bars/restaurants every now and again. You can rent loungers. Glad we found this place instead of the ones next to Barcelona city centre.
This looks like a wonderful place to stay for a holiday if you want a relaxed break. It's on the return list

I'll never travel to Palma de Mallorca without this trip planner again
Camp Nou is the renowned football stadium in Barcelona, hosting regular matches and offering stadium tours and a museum. It is the home ground of FC Barcelona, a highly prestigious football club with over 100,000 members. Situated in the eastern part of the city, around 5 kilometers from the city center, it can be easily accessed by metro. Following the Sagrada Familia, Camp Nou holds significant importance as one of Barcelona's major landmarks.
Really exciting place to be in if you love football. The stadium is deeply connected with the history of this sport. The museum inside tells the story of the club in good detail. I would advise to not rush through, and make sure to have at least 2h of time to visit. It was especially enjoyable stepping on the field around the bench area along the sideline, perfect spot for taking pictures. Walking on the playing pitch is not allowed.
N. N. — Google review
Absolutely loved it! What an experience for me and my wife! We had a blast. Lots of bathroom at almost every entrance to the seats. The views were great from the second balcony in the corner. Definitely a MUST visit for the museum but if you can also catch a game you have to go!!
Laurenzo — Google review
Very exciting place to visit. It was great. Just make sure that there is no a game the next day, as you won't be able to experience the full tour and visit most of the places as they are closed. And also everything is super expensive: gift shop and all coffee shops around.
Alex I — Google review
We bought the tour around the stadium and at night we went on game. There are a lot of things to see in the stadium like golden shoes of the players, their trophies and clothes. There aren’t any interactive places so I would not recommend this for younger children. The game night was something totally different because of the atmosphere. There is a big parking space and everything is good explained and marked so you will not have a problem with orientation.
Nastja Prodanic — Google review
We signed up for the tour when you walk in, which is €6 and they hand you a mobile device where you input certain numbers (located on the walls etc) and a video appears talking you through said section. It was incredibly difficult to find the numbers and it was too busy to listen to the device unless you purchased a headset also. So we gave up on this, wasted €6.
I also wasted €6 paying for 3 shots against the robot keeper. The machine was not open and being worked on by maintenance men. I wasn’t told this on purchase or on arrival so I left with no experience and €6 down.
The displays themselves were incredible. Just the vast amount of trophies and memorabilia on display is overwhelming. Especially if you’ve followed the team over the last few decades. You start linking each trophy to certain games in your memory.
The best bit of the tour for me was being able to sit in the stands and take it the size of the place. Also watching 200 people sit and take selfies and profile pictures on the balcony 😂
Another down side is that when it comes to having to go downstairs it is some walk to the next section which is an elevator lift away. Nothing it signed so you just kind of wonder around.
We thought we had finished after the trophies and the stands but after roaming around we found the away changing room, the conference box, the pitch side and commentary gantry. Would have been nice to see the home locker room but I can understand if they charge more for this.
Overall I would recommend visiting and doing the tour as it is a part of history.
Myles Price — Google review
The best club museum, all trophies, champions league and laliga titles in one place. And the best 360° Camp Nou room that feels like you're in stadium and Barça wins a trophie. But if you don't want to return after being there go in 2024, because the stadium is in reconstruction and its closed, but the museum, store and cafe are working.

Henry Ericks — Google review
Absolute fantastic tour, take the player experience, absolutely worth it, we got lucky with a super awesome tour guide who was speaking Spanish, Catalan, Italian, French, English, and even a bit of Arabic, he made the tour so much fun.
Part of the player experience is visiting the changing room, but they do undersell it a lot. It isn't just about the changing room, it is about understanding the journey of the players, how they prepare days before the game in the technical room, how they have their meetings, their super tremendous pressure they have to play well. It is definitely an interesting perspective that none of the people on the tour had before.
The visit includes the tour, the store (Which is actually a mega store), and the activities outside, so we spent around 3 hours on premise. Highly recommended

One of the best stadiums and most iconic stadiums in the world.I was here 2 months ago right before them knocking it down so glad i could experience it. It was always my dream to see lewandowski play and i did just there, the best place to do so. I watched Barca face Mallorca and it was great,the atmosphere and the fans are also great.The stadium was almost full and then there was Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquests presentation as they were leaving after a long time.Overall,great and iconic stadium,could not give it less than 5 stars and will forever be remembered.

As a football fan, this should be on the bucket list, but wait,.......
It is a building site, no stadium tour, no walk around. You can only visit a makeshift temporary museum, and the Barca shop. There is not much else to see. It is expected to be complete 2024, 2025 season. Just wait till it's complete. It's a shame that this historic, beautiful stadium is now gone.
Christopher French — Google review
I'm not much of a football fan, but my visit to Camp Nou was truly captivating. Even though the sport isn't my passion, I found it to be one of the best attractions in Barcelona. As I explored the stadium, I couldn't help but wonder about the incredible vibes and atmosphere during match days, especially during big matches. The energy and excitement must be truly electric. I can't quite imagine it, but I do hope to experience it for myself someday. The stadium's grandeur and history make it a must-visit, even for those who aren't die-hard football enthusiasts like myself.

We were in. Barcelona for a short city break and were going take the cable car up to the Olympic park but it was not running so decided to go to the Nou Camp. Whoops did not realise it was being knocked down and rebuilt. However the currently have a virtual tour and trophy room and although over 30 euros we actually really enjoyed learning and reading all about the clubs history. All in all enjoyed the visit and will need to return in 3 years when the stadium has been built.

I went to the stadium in December and i got to say its an amazing place to go to. Sad part was that the stadium was under counstruction, so i couldnt see the complete stadium. But in December, not many people come here so it wasnt too crowded. If your planning to come to Camp Nou sometime soon, i recommend going in Winter.

Whether a football fan or not, this is an experience. I’m not a football fan, but wanted to see the grounds progress and also was keen to have a shirt printed. (10 years after my previous one). The store is alive, buzzing and great to experience. As you would expect merchandise is not cheap, but worth it. The experience of having your name printed is amazing. I loved it! It’s not too far out the city, easy to get to and you can’t really miss it. Currently under construction 🏗️ but I’m sure will look phenomenal when finished. Definitely worth it if you’re in the city!!!🌆 💫

Casa Milà is a landmark building in Barcelona, designed by renowned architect Gaudi. It is inspired by nature and features a quarry-like facade. Today, it houses a museum with lots of exhibition rooms and a concert hall, making it an unique place to visit in Barcelona during December.
I did the guided night tour. The tour guide was excellent and it was fun to see the place with a different lighting. However, I think it would be better to let the travelers explore the roof on their own instead of having a light show that didn’t add much to the whole experience, since it was very simple. Overall very satisfied with the experience.
angelusmaia — Google review
I feel a bit daft reviewing this Gaudi house, which speaks for itself. The man was clearly a visionary genius. To have lived in one of these houses would have been a joy.
1/ Go as early in the day as you can. It’s best in the lower seasons if possible.
2/ Buy timed tickets in advance.
3/ You can take a baby, but will have to leave a pushchair before you get to the top floor as access to the roof with one isn’t possible. The staff are helpful and will show you where to put the pushchair.
I recommend a visit to this beautiful, historic place as part of even a short visit to this City.
Simon Mills — Google review
Loved this building. An incredible piece of genius architecture. Did the premiere visit so went through the main door but missed the first hallway, which was a shame. One thing, don't go when it's wet if your doing the roof as it was closed when we went, too wet! But; it was beautiful and so pleased to have visited

This apartment complex is definitely worth visiting. If you ever cared about Gaudi’s architecture or infrastructure in general you will enjoy the tour. I did the night experience and I highly recommend. Tour guide was knowledgeable and spoke fluent English. Must go even if you swing by it only. 🙏🏼
Carlos Rodriguez — Google review
Our experience is fantastic! We booked an organized tour through the Get Your Guide app. The group was not big at all, there were ten of us in total. The guide was pleasant, friendly and willing to answer all the questions we had. Also, her English was really good and easy to understand.
The Casa Mila is also phenomenal, as is everything about it - the architecture, the way it was built, the aesthetics, the interior, the roof, which is beautiful, unique and fantastic for great photos.
To all of you who are planning to visit, I strongly suggest that you buy tickets in advance because there are huge crowds in the season (as for every other attraction in Barcelona), and if you are able to spare a little more money, I strongly advise you to pay for this sunrise tour with a guide, because with that small group of ten people you will be the only ones in the whole house, which is ideal for great photos and a peaceful tour! The tour starts at 8 am and lasts about an hour. That way, just when the doors open for all the other visitors, you have finished your tour and can go on to visit the other attractions that this fantastic city has to offer.

This is an iconic building; of course this is no news, but if you get the chance to visit take it. The architecture is beautiful, there's ofc the rooftop, but there's a flat which you can also visit and there's a number of models of early versions available. The ticket comes with a free audioguide. The ticket is easily bought online at their website and I would advise going in the early morning, and going upstairs by the stairs on your right hand side. This will take you directly to the rooftop and make your visit staggered with other visitors, as others mostly choose to take the lift. It's an 8 floor climb though, so you need to be ready for that.

I really loved this place. They will guide you through each room with full information. It was really interesting to watch and hear about this place which is modern relatively to when it was made.

Beautiful like all of Gaudi’s work! Important things to note: did not wait at 6pm on a Tuesday, Can buy tickets same day (must buy in advance for park guell), special nighttime ticket with drinks and eats available, discounted evening access if purchased on the website (between 6-7pm I believe), can be completed in 1-1.5 hrs, beautiful rooftop - bring camera, audio guide provided, highly recommend stopping in the cafe next door!

Beautiful experience, we really enjoyed the Rooftop and the guided tour. The visit is well organised and the staff are friendly. One of the exiting parts of the building is the Attic, and I think they used the space beautifully to explain about Gaudí’s work. Visiting one of the apartments was important to understand the interior of the building, but the apartment was normal and a bit boring, my favourite part was the children’s room, there is a Zoetrope, it’s the first time I see one. The gift shop was nice and elegant. I prefer the morning visit, especially for the first visit, I might do the night one later. Enjoy your visit.

From the outside, Casa Milà is a striking example of Gaudí's organic and undulating style, with its wave-like facade and wrought-iron balconies resembling seaweed. The building's qqunique appearance stands out amidst the more traditional architecture of Barcelona's Eixample district, earning it the nickname "La Pedrera," which means "the stone quarry" in Catalan.
Upon entering, we are greeted by a stunning interior that showcases Gaudí's innovative approach to design. The central courtyard, with its swirling staircase and natural light streaming in from above, is a marvel of engineering and aesthetics.
One of the highlights is the rooftop terrace, where you can explore an otherworldly landscape of chimneys, ventilation shafts, and staircases. It is adorned with sculptural chimneys that resemble surrealist sculptures, each one uniquely designed and decorated with colorful mosaic tiles.

I enjoyed this visit. It was a great introduction to Antoni Gaudi and his works. Although some consider this his masterpiece (because it was designed and completed during his life) it is hard to compete with La Sagrada Familia!
My favorite parts of the house were the attention to detail (the large windows, the balconies, the ornate doorframes, the ceilings, the floor tiles, etc). Overall it was well worth a visit. There is a small cafe and gift shop after the tour.

The Sagrada Familia, a controversial and majestic unfinished Roman Catholic basilica in Barcelona's Example district, is an iconic UNESCO World Heritage site. Designed by renowned architect Antoni Gaudi, it stands as a testament to his unique vision and artistic genius. Combining late Spanish Gothic, Catalan Modernism, and Art Nouveau styles, the basilica aims to depict the life of Jesus and the history of faith.
If you come to Barcelona, go here! It might feel like a hefty price tag for a cathedral entrance in Europe, but it is 100% worth it!
The church is gorgeous outside, but the superstar is the inside. It literally took my breath away. Huge and clean and with capacity restrictions, it doesn't feel packed full of people.

In addition to being a stunning structure the process to enter is very easy. Easiest attraction I’ve ever been to. Show your ticket and go through security. Then your tickets get scanned and you can start the audio tour with your app. The tour leads to the museum and never fear - it leads you back to the Nativity facade where you started so you can look through again before leaving. I appreciated that it was not super busy - they didn’t seem to pack people in like i have experienced at other religious sites *cough* the Vatican * cough* but I can obviously only comment on the day I attended. The inside of the Sagrada is extremely beautiful. Bathed in light it feels calm even with all the people there with you. Amazing.
Note: you must buy your tickets online and have the app to enter.

Amazing of course. I particularly liked the way the light came through the various windows. Cool colors on one side and warm on the other. Every detail, such as the colors or proportions of the hall have meaning. Leave time for the quite extensive and interesting museum in the basement. The queues and security process are quite well organized and people working there are pleasant, asking you which language you would prefer to speak with them. Some airport operations could take away lessons from these nice but efficient and professional folks. I was very impressed by the amount of progress since my other visit, in 1983! There was no color ( just stone) and not really any fully enclosed spaces then. I hope to come back in another 40 years!

It's incredible and incredibly beautiful. If you come to Barcelona, you should definitely plan to visit the Sagrada Familia. It's best to buy tickets online so that you can get in and be sure of your preferred time. The best time, in my opinion, is in the afternoon, when the sun shines through the windows and the colours come into their own. A visit to the towers is also recommended. We went up the passion tower and had a great view to the ocean side and sun setting.

Truly Iconic architecture in Barcelona.
This project is a masterpiece of construction and architectural design.
Every design and situation is meaningful.
They have put one mirror in the center in which u can see the whole upper design and u feel like a sprinkler of water in the river.
Book ur tickets in advance.Audio guide available for 45-60 min.
Definitely worth a visit..!!

As an architect, Sagrada was a dream come true to experience. I recommend booking tickets in advance to secure your spot according to your preferred time slot. Personally, I’d advise mid to late afternoon is, however during peak season it’ll constantly be busy.
I’d suggest sure to allocate around 3-4 hours to explore and soak in the sheer size, history and detailing of the structure - both internally and externally. Lastly, make sure to download the Sagrada app beforehand, to follow the audio guide as your explore on foot.

Must visit. Our guide said we had really good sun that day so it really depends on the good weather to enjoy the kaleidoscope colours illuminated into the church!
If you like cool colours like blue and green, come in when the morning light shines. If you like warm colours of autumn, come towards sunset timings.
Suggest to join the tour to learn the significance of each structure. It looks complicated n stern but is filled with symbolism and stories. Wonderful.

Visited the place earlier and it was a wonderful experience to observe the architecture and detailing around the building. It's a real piece of art and admire the work done so far. Did not get chance to get the ticket to enter as no tickets were available at the counter. It is always advisable to book in advance if you are planning to visit the place. There are many good food choices around. Overall great experience and a must visit place while in Barcelona.

Breathtaking experience. You expect a classical church but this is completely different. Modern and classical art combined. No boring golden altars or statues but brilliant architecture and philosophy of a genius. The best monument i have ever visit. The 45 min audio guide (there is also an 25 min express option) is a very inspiring and extremely informative enabler. I fully recommend it, it makes the experience complete and gives you all the astonishing context to really enjoy this piece of art.

A amazing building, but also a very expensive exhibit. The app was very well designed and the ticket sharing was also high quality. May I suggest providing a more detailed audio guide in the app for those people wanting even more detail, including for those walking around the outside and the towers. The towers were also very limited in the length of the walk, which was not well communicated. Very friendly staff and an astonishing space.

Definitely a must visit in Barcelona. It’s magnificent! Their entry system has improved so much that you don’t need to queue up to get in anymore if you buy tickets online.
The entrance was a lil troublesome with the security checks but the staff were all very friendly and made the entire process smooth and welcoming.
The ticket although was pretty steep but came with a great audio guide that made the entire experience truly amazing.

Exceeded my expectations. Pictures don't do it justice. We bought tickets ahead, and went when it opened. There was no waiting or crowds for the first hour. It was quite busy when we left, so glad we took the approach we did. Absolutely loved the free audio guide/app, it describes things like how Gaudi used nature as inspiration. The columns, for example, look like trees. The reflection of the colorful sunlight through the glass onto the floor, ceiling and columns is absolutely breathtaking. Don't forget the museum downstairs.

Needless to say, this place is a must see in Barcelona. Regardless of your religion, you would enjoy the great architecture of the place. The windows artwork is mesmerizing, you should choose a relatively sunny day to enjoy the lights and colors throughout the basilica. Try to reserve the tickets early and plan your trip ahead because the tickets get sold out really fast.

The place is truly unique and does not resemble any other church. You have to order tickets in advance and I highly recommend adding one of the church’s towers to your visit. You reach the top by elevator and go down by foot. When entering the place, there is an airport like security check and bags scan, but the process is very smooth

Absolutely breathtaking, I have never seen anything like it! The immense amount of thought behind every little detail is incredible, the audio guide was really good for getting all the information. About the different colours of the mozaïek, the pillars and the statues. We did not go up the towers so I can’t say much about that, however the cathedral is truly amazing and I really recommend buying tickets in advance online.
Jade Spitters — Google review
You already know how amazing this was. I wasn’t that excited about going to “another cathedral,” but this was totally different. It was modern and more a work of science than art. I mean so cool. You have to go when the sun is coming through the glass. Get the free audio guide downloaded onto your phone. It’s really enlightening.

Absolutely stunning! We were fortunate to be greeted by a police officer who gave us a private tour. The panoramic view was amazing, and the surrounding area is easy to walk to see more landmarks. It's lovely strolling the streets of Barcelona. Go there, explore, experience the culture, and cross it off your bucket list!
Cheryl Ann — Google review
Stunning unfinished cathedral. The inside is the opposite of a normal „boring“ church and really brings a special beauty into this building. There is a reason why Gaudi is called one of the history‘s greatest architects. The whole concept is so creative that even I‘m not a big fan of churches was impressed and spent longer than expected here. Would also recommend the passion tower facade to climb.
Hollywood — Google review
Absolutely stunning!! This should be #1 on your things to do in Barcelona! Once you see it in person, it's so much more amazing in person than in pictures!
NOTE - BUY TICKETS AHEAD OF TIME online to get inside! They get sold out quickly, and unfortunately they were sold out for the next week, so we couldn't see the inside.
But the structure outside was magnificent and I totally recommend it.
David Nagel-Nunez — Google review
Touring this cathedral was a fabulous experience! I booked a tour, which enables you to view it at a particular time. On a sunny day, the sun fills the cathedral with an amazing display of light. Although one tower and one facade are not yet finished, what is already built is simply splendid.
Guenther Moeller — Google review
Simply put, it’s a masterpiece. One of the modern wonders of the world. I’ve gotten to visit 3x over the last 7 years and it’s been awesome watching it come together. It’s already incredible, but should be even more so when all the construction is completed. A masterpiece.
Brendan Sullivan — Google review
It's definitely worth visiting this place. Architecture is amazing. Go have a closer look at the exterior. Each and every object has more detailed work and a story behind it. It's still under construction and planning many more to the existing architecture, and the interior looks so amazed and beautiful. It's worth visiting this place in Barcelona.
varippireddy srinivasan — Google review
One of the most beautiful artistic symbols I have ever seen. You should buy your tickets online to grant the access at a preferred time. Large group visits can be organized only paying for a guide. Online guide was really clear and exhaustive, it permitted me to understand what’s the story telling of the Cathedral. Amazing!
Daniela Figlioli — Google review
Really don't have the words to describe how magical a building this is. You have to see it to believe it, just incredible. If you want great photos of the exterior then you are better getting these from the street as opposed to paying the entrance fee. Inside is stunning too though.
Steve “SteBrad” Bradbury — Google review
What a place!
It is a Church, it is a museum, it is having history in its every corner.
What design, what creativity and what the usage of stones.
If you are in Barcelona, you must visit this place because it is very alive, vibrant and very good atmosphere all around.
Good food can be enjoyed. One should hire a guide and one should book the tickets in advance, online though the waiting is not too long but still it is recommended.
Enjoy the vibe all around this place.
Gurbir Bhatia — Google review
I know it’s top attraction of Barcelona, but I am not 100% sure I totally enjoyed and understood such a mixture of different styles and ideas. You definitely need to go around just to get an idea, and it’s up to you to decide how you like it. We couldn’t get in as all online tickets were sold even for the upcoming several weeks. Some people say it’s more beautiful inside than outside, so I guess it’s for the next time. In any case, I personally cannot imagine standing outside for hours in order to get in, especially if it’s hot outside.
Anya Nura — Google review
Incredible place!! I loved meeting you. I hope to return another day and be willing to pay 40 euros to see the island from the inside. It's very impactful.
There is a shop nearby to buy souvenirs but everything is expensive, if you walk a few more blocks you will find cheaper places with the same product.
Be careful as there are a lot of people there.
Gabriela Rodrigues — Google review
What a beautiful experience it was to have visited this place. The outside of the cathedral is amazing no doubt, but the interior just touched my soul. I literally couldn’t hold my tears back when I saw where Gaudi’s crypt was. To have imagined and made such a surreal masterpiece, is beyond my imagination. No wonder his work is so popular and that he was so well respected and loved. It is a beautiful piece of art, must visit. Every penny & second invested was worth it!
Paulomi Roy — Google review
Last work of the genius and here you find all his magic view. The best view of course is the old side with the nativity. The rest seems to be tentative to follow the maestro. Inside is great especially if you can go very early before the mass is coming.
mauro cefola — Google review
A must see in Barcelona! Definitely purchase a guided tour well in advance to make sure you get in and to learn about the history. Because we had a scheduled tour at 9 am, we did not have to wait in a line to enter.
We did the optional tower tour, which I found well worth the cost and the time. The spiral staircase coming down is quite narrow and steep. I recommend putting any bag you may have in one of the lockers and having your hands free when you descend.
Allow 2 to 3 hours for the visit.
I can't begin to describe how beautiful the stained glass is and how inspiring the design and architecture are.
Go!
Kari Nass — Google review
I've been inside many beautiful churches and this is the prettiest I've been in. The stained glass windows show so much beautiful colorful light. The ceiling is very tall and the church is huge. In fact, it's not even a church. It's an entire basilica! An audio guide is recommended as it helps a lot.

Designed by architect Antoni Gaudi, Casa Batllo is a renowned historical landmark and museum situated on Barcelona's vibrant Passeig de Gracia boulevard. This exquisite Modernista masterpiece, transformed from an apartment block to a museum, mesmerizes visitors with its enchanting dragon-roofed structure.
Absolutely stunning architecture, full of amazing shapes, curves and colors. Walking inside the building feels like wandering in a romantic aquarium. The video guide is also very helpful and fun to play with. Try to get your ticket in advance, so you don’t need to pay extra for the gold ticket.
Echo L. — Google review
Very educational and inspirational experience. The audio guide made the experience even more fun. There several types of entrance tickets, but do not think the ticket with the AR tablet is necessary unless you are going with young children. Make sure to bring your own earphones!
Cristina Chun — Google review
Strange building, one of the strongest attractions in the city, if you have come all this way, it's a good idea to ride the metro for a look.
Organic inspired structure that flows and ebbs.
A visual feast for the eyes, you can stand a while and take it in, if your up for it, purchase a ticket and take a look inside.
Steven stennett — Google review
A unique architectural experience. If you can afford it it's worth upgrading your ticket to get the augmented reality tablet and the cube experience. They do have a lift if needed but it's very small and does interfere with the audio tours flow around the house. Also, if you want to avoid the queue to enter pre book the ticket.
Richard James — Google review
This place is incredible, I cannot imagine someone designing and created it since the 1900s, must be a forward thinker! I was amazed by its beauty, and all every single details of the house. I got a Silver ticket, which allowed you ti skip lines and has access to some areas that the Blue ticket does not. This place was recognized as World Heritage Site, although the money we paid was pretty high, 36€, they say it is dedicated to renovation plan of the house, so I guess it was worth it. Highly recommend buying a book about Gaudi in the end of the tour!
Ngocbaohan Pham — Google review
Another amazing Gaudi’s creation - this Casa is like a miracle in the heart of the city! The details, the materials, the ideas- incredible. And when you get to the top you see the chimneys that look beautiful. The central one looks like a dragon with its multicoloured scales. And there is a bar on the top so you can sit, rest and admire all this beauty. There is an option that you can take a photo on one of the balconies and it is a great opportunity to create more unforgettable memories.

This was a highlight of our trip in Barcelona! Beautiful, bold, and innovative. I recommend including the video/audio to your tour. Fun visuals of both fantasy and how the rooms may have been furnished when the family lived there. Increased our appreciation of the spirit and history of the place. We went early in the morning as it was less crowded and the morning sunlight shines on the front of the house which highlights it stunning colors. So glad the place is preserved and available to the public. Allow 2-3 hours to enjoy the house. Get tickets in advance as they sell out.
Judith Breisch — Google review
We went in the morning, and it was beautiful! The cheapest level (blue?) is all you need to enjoy the tour. The audio guide was great. The house is amazing! Worth visiting.
Olivia H — Google review
If you like architecture you'll love this building, if you don't like architecture you'll love this building. It is very expensive to get into, I did a group tour of a few of Gaudi buildings which worked out cheaper but you don't get to spend as long as you want on some of the buildings as there is A LOT to take in visually and informatively. The tour I did I thought was more informative as she mentioned some information that wasn't in handset of the self guided tour although she would've missed some things that would be in a self guided tour as well. Doing a tour you also skip the line which I did see was quite long as times.
Hope you enjoy the building as much as I did if you do see it

The house is stunning, the experience novel, the price steep. We bought the Gold tickets (kids free) and it was worth the little extra to skip the line. You don't want to be in a crowd of people if you can avoid it. The audio guides were informative and the augmented reality tablets kept the kids engaged. The architecture is second-to-none, especially the woodwork.
Ben Lake — Google review
This is one of the best places to see in Barcelona. It was an amazing experience going inside with Gold level tickets that gives you full access to all rooms and a nice set of tablets with good headphones, plus you have a fast line pass.
They do not let you in earlier than your ticket time.
Roman Nagibin — Google review
A must visit, definitely worth the price. I wasn't sure what to expect but the audio tour and house in general is really awesome. I've never seen a house like it and it's very impressive.
The best part for me was the basement where they have a full room / screen experience to finish off the tour which is really good. Definitely a must visit for all Barcelona tourists.
Charles — Google review
Do recommend paying for the highest pass level you can afford (Blue < Silver < Gold), since the difference between Blue and Gold is only 29Euro vs 39Euro.
AND BUY TICKETS BEFOREHAND!
Check out the official site for the differences between pass levels (mainly AR tablet, Gaudi Dome, access to specific rooms, etc.)
Crowd management could've been done better, as all pass levels converge and you don't get special treatment once you're inside areas where everyone can access.
The team-lab-esque Gaudi dome experience was nice, although I can't say too relevant to the actual Casa. Worth the extra difference in pricing though
The casa is quite interesting, esp. considering it was an actual residence.
Chi Kit Wong — Google review
It's a very beautiful building, one of the most famous in Barcelona, with beautiful majolica on the walls designed by Gaudi. There is a terrace on the roof with a beautiful view of the neighborhood, you can take a "tourist" photo on the balcony and they will print it out and give you a digital version. It's such a stupid thing for tourists, but it costs 14€, I liked it. You should already have tickets, although if you come in the morning at 8-8.30 on weekdays, you won't have to stand in line for long. I also noticed a ticket office near the entrance to the building where you can buy 3 groups of tickets at once. And the "golden" group is very profitable! 6-7 houses for 60€. I liked it, I highly recommend it. One of my dreams))
P P — Google review
We purchased tickets online and were able to go right in. The gold package allowed us to see everything and included an informative interactive audio guide. It's beautiful inside and out. Just be patient as there were many visitors when we went and some areas in the home got congested. Highly recommend visiting.
Trudy Edwards — Google review
Great experience, however quite pricey! The audio tour was integrated seamlessly as you walk around the house and the house is truly beautiful and well preserved. For a one time experience I decided to pay the 35€, but maybe not worth it if you’re visiting Barcelona on a budget. There was no queue and no crowds when I visited on the 3rd of January, but I did get my ticket online.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY
I was very disappointed with my visit to Casa Batlló. The place was overcrowded with people and I could barely see anything. The tickets were expensive and not worth it. The AC was not working properly and it was very hot and stuffy inside. The architecture was nothing special and I felt like I wasted my time and money. They sold ticket ten times more than building capacity , I do not recommend this place at all.

Great spot to visit and is worth at least upgrading to silver. The line is shorter, and the interacting tablet is very cool and has some funny interaction. Make sure you don't miss or skip the last video! Was really cool and a highlight.
Zoe Lisson — Google review
Purchased the gold ticket which allowed direct access at chosen time. The tablet and headset were helpful to navigate the house. The house itself is a work of art - so beautiful, intricate and artistic. Definitely worth a visit. Thoroughly enjoyed the immersive experience in the 'cube' at the end of the tour.
Jessica Devine — Google review
I love this place. A lot of opportunities to take great pictures. It’s a good size so you could spend a lot of time here, just admiring the works of art. We did the silver pass, which featured almost everything the gold one does except for like one small area. It was very busy but not like shoulder to shoulder. Employees were nice and helpful. Plan to spend 3-5 hrs.
Nicholas P — Google review
I visited Casa Batlló in 2021 and it still is undoubtedly one of the most stunning houses in the world. However, what Barcelona has achieved with this museum is truly remarkable. They have taken a regular museum visit and turned it into an unforgettable EXPERIENCE. The visuals, storytelling, and branding are all flawless. If you love museums and are creative, you cannot afford to miss this experience. I would visit it a thousand times and still be in awe of it, and fall in love deeply. I know it's pricey, but it's worth every single penny. Yes, buy the audio guide.
Ana Maria — Google review
I’m impressed by all the work, art work, how creative and talented people can be. It’s definitely a must if you travel to Barcelona. I personally love the experience of seeing the Casa Batlló (and generally every work of art made by Gaudí). At least once in life you have to see it.😍
Lavie Anic — Google review
We were completely in awe of the architecture here. We were so grateful to have an audio tour we could follow at our own pace. If you don't want to hold the wand, you can plug in your own headphones. The building is beautiful and even though we took our time going through the building I'm sure we still missed stuff. I would recommend this stop when visiting Barcelona. There was even a balcony where you can get your picture taken and purchase it, and there were so many fun facts as you walked through each floor. Get tickets early to avoid large crowds and make sure to take pictures at night of the front of the building as the lighting changes colors and adds a spectacular new view of the Casa. Definitely buy your tickets ahead of time online to save time.
Even though they had a "cube" show at the end of the tour, please be aware of fast moving lights, and lots of moving video especially if you suffer from vertigo. It was a bit much for me because I get dizzy easily from this type of exhibit. But it's short and you aren't missing much if you skip this.
Vivian Hairston — Google review
Casa Batlló is a stunning monument in Barcelona. The building's unique architecture makes it well worth a visit. Not being a big fan of monument tours, I absolutely loved this visit, it was very exciting and full of history. I recommend buying tickets in advance.
Matthieu VETOIS — Google review
Architecture beyond compare! Indescribable, but I'll try.
Gaudí had amazing vision. He designed and had this home built to resemble nature and the sea. The attention to detail is exquisite. The wooden shell depicted on the stairway, the bubbles of glass everywhere catching the light, the blue hand-made tile surrounding the ventilation shafts that make you feel like you could be under water are all well thought out details that make Casa Batlló my favorite attraction this trip. Just beautiful and amazing too, the grandeur, without being pretentious.
Yes, it's busy with people but it's a self-guided tour so just being still for a bit allows you to see without too much interruption. If you go, I recommend you don't rush!

La Rambla is a famous tree-lined pedestrian walkway in Barcelona that is often filled with street festivals and historic buildings. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the city, and has been a target of terrorist attacks in recent years. The wide boulevard is flanked by plane trees and congested every day until the early hours of the morning with a wide cross-section of society.
Crowded street in a good area. Worth walking thru to get to your next tourist destination

I'll never travel to Palma de Mallorca without this trip planner again
La Boqueria is a renowned indoor public market in Barcelona, close to Hotel Arc la Rambla. It is the city's oldest and largest gastronomic market, offering a wide variety of meat, produce, cheese, and exotic food items. With over 300 stalls representing different cultures, La Boqueria showcases the multiculturalism of Barcelona. Visitors can find traditional Catalan products as well as unique delicacies while immersing themselves in the vibrant atmosphere filled with charm and color.
Love this market, it's super busy as you'd expect, with not too much space to eat what you buy, but the quality is great in general everywhere here. You'll get food from everywhere and usually there's a fish market in the centre too (it wasn't open on the Monday when we went, but that just left us a little more space). You can buy dishes to eat there, or items to take home. Slightly more expensive of course, and very touristy, but a very large, high market area - excellent to wander around in, grab some delicacies and a beer or 2.
Marc Berry — Google review
This had to be the coolest Mercado I’ve ever been. Very lively and colorful. They had mangoes that looked luxurious and juicy. I didn’t care to buy any as I don’t have a kitchen in my hotel room but they should really offer cut to order cause the produce looks amazing here. I recommend coming here.

A fun place to meander through the stalls! The market is filled with tons of options for fruit, fish, meats, if you think of it, they probably sell it.

It's a must if you like markets. You'll find good-quality local and international products. Some stands offer drinks (including wine) and small "tapas", that are not a typical Portuguese thing, but they allow you to try different dishes and preparations. If you have more of a sweet tooth, coffee and traditional sweets are also available. You can enjoy your meal while you discover the market or on the dedicated stands. The market is directly connected to a metro station and has public toilets on the different floors. Upstairs you'll also find restaurants.

The market was a fun experience. I recommend walking the entire market before choosing who to buy from because a lot of the vendors offer the same things for slightly different prices.
But you can choose your own adventure. You can grab a snack or eat a whole meal. There aren't many seats in the market itself, but there is a small plaza behind it with some benches where you can take your goodies.

This place was the mother of all markets. It’s so large with much local food and also variety. They also have vendors that cater to a number of dietary restrictions. The juices at every stand were my favorite part along with the fresh fruit. I consumed 2 juices and 2 main dishes and my friend downed 4 juices herself easily. I highly recommend trying the exotic fruit options and fresh meals!

One of the best experiences you could have in Spain. It’s a market with a ton of different food options. From fresh fruit juices to Iberian ham and all the way to chocolate strawberries.

The best market we visited in Spain. Despite being so popular, the prices are honestly decent. We tried a large selection of items, including raw oysters, paella, steak strips, fruit juices, olives, fried seafood, amongst others. The 100% best thing was the raw oysters. It was €10 for 4, Spanish or French oysters. They were delicious and juicy, tasted so fresh and we were able to add tabasco/vinegar amongst other sauces provided. There are tons of stalls offering oysters and probably all sourced from the same place. The fruit juices were also amazing, for €2.50 it was delicious but the portion was quite small. I'd recommend trying one of the more unique mixes such as coconut. We wanted to come back a second time but never got the chance.

what an awesome experience! Loved everything about this place. The variations of different things to buy and eat are tremendous. Everything from fruits to meats to seafood. All available fresh and in an outdoor market experience. I tried so many different things I can't name em all. The service from all the shop owners was friendly and prompt. They are Helpful if you are unsure of what your getting. The location is open air so gives you the feeling of a farmers market. Everyone I went to accepted credit cards so it was very convenient. There are plenty of small restaurants all around the market to sit and enjoy a cold sangria at so make sure you choose one. Overall great place to make part of your trip while in Barcelona.

You HAVE to go here if you are in Barcelona! I could have probably stayed in this market for my entire trip and been happy. There is so much to see and food to try! It can become very crowded but I found that it was very pleasant still. Everyone was very nice and the vendors are good at their jobs!
We tried a lot of food as we walked around and snacked and it was a great time. Keep your receipts though, they let you go into the bathroom for free! Otherwise, it’s one euro.

A bustling food market renowned for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse culinary offerings. We are treated to a sensory feast as we stroll through the market's aisles, encountering colorful displays of fresh fruits, vegetables, seafood, meats, cheeses, and spices.
The market's stalls and counters offer an array of prepared foods, including traditional Spanish tapas, freshly squeezed juices, artisanal chocolates, and more. Whether you're in the mood for a quick bite or seeking ingredients for a gourmet meal, this market has something to satisfy every palate.
While the market can get crowded, especially during peak hours, the energy and excitement only add to its charm. We appreciate the opportunity to interact with local vendors and sample authentic Catalan cuisine.
Overall, a memorable culinary experience that captures the essence of Spanish gastronomy.

Visually nice, colourful market. Try the oysters, they are fresh.

Kaitlin Maurer — Google review
Huge tourist trap, but worth a look. Lots of the same things at various stalls. So much juice, so much cured meat. It all looks cool, but after a while, it starts to seem really repetitive.
This isn't really a market for buying local produce, although you can and people do. If you're looking for where locals go, this isn't it.
Everything is quite expensive so don't expect cheap eats. However, you can get some excellent seafood from some of the spots inside. Sad to see the xuxo place gone.
Absolutely packed with tourists on their phones, but it seems that at least you can move around for the most part.
I recommend the egg stall. There are emu eggs!

WOW this market is BEAUTIFUL. I stopped off and had some lunch at the seafood bar ad its the best prawns and scallops I've ever had. TAKE A LOOK AT MY PHOTOs as they tell the story.
John Northover — Google review
Everything we ate there was delicious! Pricing seemed good too. Only complaint is that it was so busy (on a Friday afternoon) and sometimes hard to maneuver through the narrow walkways.
Monica Ahn — Google review
The market had a diverse selection of produce and tapas. It was very enjoyable to walk between each of the stalls and see what the local cuisine entails. We bought a chicken, tomatoes and potatoes Empanada. It was very tasty! I would highly recommend stopping at the market for some tapas and a unique experience.

La Rambla, 91, Ciutat Vella, 08001 Barcelona, Spain
The Gothic Quarter, also known as Barri Gòtic, is a picturesque neighborhood in Barcelona. This charming and historic area features narrow medieval streets that are filled with trendy bars, clubs, and Catalan restaurants. Tourists can explore the remains of the ancient Roman city at the Museu d'Història de Barcelona. Street vendors sell leather products and jewelry near the Cathedral of Barcelona while flower stalls and food vendors line La Rambla avenue.
Illa Fantasia is a water park located just 30 minutes away from Barcelona, offering a variety of attractions suitable for all ages. It features a wave pool, water games, rapids, and a pirate-themed maze. Visiting early in the morning on weekdays is recommended to beat the heat and crowds. The friendly staff make an effort to communicate in English. However, some caution is advised due to steep walkways and the need for foot protection on certain slides.
One of the best water parks I have ever been to. Quite challenging attractions fit for all levels of enjoyment from adrenaline kicks and dreamy relaxed.

If you have choice where to go, better chose Marineland, WaterWorld or Aquadiver. This place is not well organized for the visitors and too crowded: no benches to sit, no grass where you can rest and the water is quite dirty in all pools.
Sasha Poltaeva — Google review
Pros:
- staff is pretty nice
- big area with relatively diverse pools and slides
- nice picnic area
- you can bring your own food
Cons
- it's closed by 5:45 pm !!
- some rules are weird and illogical (having to go round places with no reason)
- food is overpriced
- some slides will cut you
3 stars overall, mostly because of the hours. You spend 100 euros for a family and they close at 5:45! The best time of the day they close everything! And you spend most of the little time you have inside waiting in lines. Other waterparks in Europe close at 9 or 10 in the summertime (some slides can be closed earlier, but not access to the pools).
Worth it as a first experience, but probably won't come back too soon.
Andrei C. — Google review
It is a water park located just 30 minutes away from Barcelona by bus. It boasts a wide range of slides and games suitable for both children and adults.
There are many people present, and although you don't bump into people, some slides have extensive queues throughout the entire day, so you might not be able to enjoy all the slides.
There are various dining options available in the park that cater to those who need gluten-free food. Additionally, visitors can make use of designated areas for barbecuing, shaded spots, and lockers for storage.
Recommended going.
Maria Laura Orellana — Google review
Nice friendly staff who tried speaking English when they heard someone speaking Spanish with an accent. Not very long lines. A couple cautions: many steep hot slippery walkways, while sandles cannot be worn on the slides some type of foot protection is advised. The system of carrying the floats up the hill should be redesigned--at the very least do not require the guests to climb stairs to retrieve the float and then carry it down the wet steps. This is dangerous and easily fixed. We went for the afternoon session, 4 hours was enough. Parking was good and free.

Spent €100 for entrance which was fine. But the place is dirty and reminded my of swimming in sewage of Bombay that you watch j in documentaries. Extremely terrible. Dirty water. Fungal and skin diseases guaranteed.

The Illa Fantasia Water Park was the site for 36 hour long music, pool time, and amusement park activities which was part of the Barcelona Circuit Festival 2023. At the end of the day, the remaining few thousand attendees were guided into a small arena where disc jockeys entertained the crowd, who got carried away with the sensual ambiance, so they were lots of small groups going at it until dawn.

Ariana Rivers — Google review
Overall, ok. Lots of people but also lots of space. Good picnic area, a good variety of water slides, but it would be ideal if they had more slides for younger children/under 5 year old. The taking of pictures by staff was a bit much, but overall, I ended up buying some nice photos to take home.
Natasha Simms — Google review
It is really slippery, so be extra careful. Use a lot of sunscrean. Locals bring lunch with them and occupy tables in the pine forest as soon as they come. But burgers a good too snd cost up to 14 for a menue with huge burger, chips and a drink.
The slides are plenty and fun. Queues are the same in any water park this time of a year
Olga Novikova — Google review
Booked online, arrived at opening time. Very quiet; no waiting around (although it was a Monday morning but still in school holiday times). Lots of slides and pools to keep busy, generally very tidy and clean. Water is a bit cooler than we're used to, but it was nice and refreshing and not uncomfortable.
The only slight issue was for some reason the shuttle bus isn't free for this season but I didn't notice that until I had already got on! Food was good and reasonably priced, would definitely recommend especially if you have children
Rachel Tomsett — Google review
It's OK, especially for kids. However drinks and food are expensive once in. Place could do with a lick of paint, but this doesn't detract for the experience from children. Best to do as separates away from organised day trips.
Matthew Reynolds — Google review
Not too bad but I wouldn't see it visiting on daily basis. I thought there are more attractions but there aren't. Only one attractions with inflatable rings but the wait was for me beyond doable. Artificial waves pool runs every 30 minutes but there is 2 hours no waves between 1pm to 3pm for some reasons. Really nice is to be able to bring your own picnic in a cool box of up to 40 liters and there are enough tables under canopies to enjoy the shade. For me what is offered seems the price tag rather high. Recommended are shoes because the concrete and tiles between pools are very hot and rough. For very little kids there is a great water tower to explore, my kids had fun therr and I just tagged along. Snack prices and ice cream prices are high as expected. I just expected to see more (art and sculptures or fountains and also to do more without so many queues everywhere.

I am here today, and eat burger in the park, this burger shop is rubbish, the staff is rude, local people ask for the plastic bag which they give, but tourists ask they said NO, we don’t have any plastic bag, what’s the sucks of this service? And the burger is cold beef, really bad, don’t buy it

Ferrocarril de Sóller - Estació de Sóller
Mentioned on
Heritage railroad
Tours
The Ferrocarril de Sóller is a vintage electric tram that has been operating daily since its establishment in 1912. The train offers a scenic trip through Mallorcan landscape from Palma to the seaside town of Soller, which boasts a charming harbor and beach. While it may be considered an expensive tourist attraction, the efforts to preserve its rustic old-world charm have been successful. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, trains only run once daily and return in late afternoon.
Great experience. We had to wait in the ticket qur for maybe an hour but the ride itself worth every minute. Great scenery along the route and the city of Sóller it is a must see.
Florin C — Google review
Great experience! A wee bit expensive for the shorter ride. It was €8 per person including kids when we went. The ride is about 25 mins from the port to the main town. But I would say, if visiting either area for the day, this should be done. It’s just a scenic beautiful experience and a convenient way to get from point A to point B and back again.
Kevin McCabe — Google review
We visited here as part of a trip organised by tui arrived by boat then travelled by tram to the village and took the train through the mountains towards palma. highly recommended don't even have to be a old train enthusiast to enjoy the experience
Darren Nimmo — Google review
Very enjoyable train ride to a lovely little town. Get there at least 30 minutes early (earlier if you want the best seats). People who showed up right before departure have difficulty finding seats. The tram to the port is worth the extra money. Buying the tickets online was super easy.
Lawana “Mitchi” Walker — Google review
Loved the ride through Soller to the port. Sometimes the trams was really full, but since we didn't catch the first one right off the train from Palma, there was more room on the next ones. Coming back was really crowed. And we had to stand. But that wasn't a problem since the ride is not too long. The timetables were a bit confusing, but I guess since there were lots of people the tram ran non stop and was easy to catch this way. Loved it!
Aino-Kaisa Lonka — Google review
The trip in itself isn't much to write about. The tram line is either going behind high walls or next to a quite busy roadway. The destination on the other hand is wonderful. The waiting line to get on is long, you might have to stand the whole way if you are not fast enough to grab a seat
Gabriel Alexandru Cristea — Google review
The right was really nice, but if you canter in high season and the weekends. I suggest that you book the Tickets for your desire time way before. Also do not take there, the latest Tram when it's already and darkish outside because it will be fully dark once you write and you won't see anything off the whole environment and not a thing to keep in mind is when you're there with the last tram. In order to get back the main city you need to take a taxi for approximately €10 so calculated in that in.
Paul Ge — Google review
While it's definitely a tourist trap and overly expensive, it's still a fun ride from Palma to Soller. Plenty of seats. Due to covid the trains only run once a day and return in late afternoon. Still a fun thing to do.
Paul Heller — Google review
Well worth getting this tram if you have completed the train trip from Palma.. this smaller tram is a nice experience and brings you to a beautiful port village (about 15 minutes).. I'd recommend getting off at the second last stop (the first sea view stop) its a short and pleasant walk towards the last stop, plenty of nice places to eat and even a small beach to dip your toes. Once at the last stop that's about it for the village. There seems to be nice treks and trails but we were just on a day trip so didn't go further. Its nice to be at the last stop (first stop for the return journey) to guarantee a seat for the return trip back to the beautiful soller.
Rua Cuail — Google review
I only did a quick walkthrough of this beautiful village
Note the streets are skinny and pretty curvy I'm not sure if it's all one way traffic but there were a lot of motorcycles which I'm guessing would be a lot easier to drive
Everyone I met were super friendly and very helpful getting me back on track when I got myself turned around like I'm known to do - the extra large circle I did to get to the church where you grab the tram showed me so much more than if I had just walked straight there!
One thing I found and I wish I would have had more time to explore was the botanical garden...next time 💯

A beautiful ride through the mountains and about 9 tunnels. It's not cheap but quit an experience. Once in Soller you have to take a tramride to the beach/harbour.(inclusive in the ticket as it is operated by the same company). Ride +visit will take a least half a day.
Peter Van Ruyskensvelde — Google review
Best is to book tickets few days in advance as this is very popular attraction. If you buy tickets online you still need to go to the ticket office to receive tickets. There is a designated queue to collect online tickets. For additional cost you can buy journey to port du Sóller and that place is absolutely amazing.

Soller and port Soller , nice day out old town square is nice for breakfast, lunch , coffee, cake, small little local shops. Take the train down to port for 9 euro 1 way, post is small again local shops and restaurants mostly sea food.
Craig leslie — Google review
Great train ride but the queue to get on was stressful.Although guaranteed a seat unless you queue early we were afraid the four of us would not sit together.At Soller there is a dash for the tram. My advice is spend 30 mins at Soller and allow the queue diminish. On the return there is a dash for the tram at the beach. We got there at 17.00 for the tram for the 18.00 return train to Palma.
Finally don't worry about sitting on the right on the outward journey as there view on either side are about the same. At the best view point the train stopped for those who wished to get off and see it to do so.

If the stairs are shut up to the platform, you go up via the side of the building. Small cafe on platform toilets are back in the main building.
Leave plenty of time to make sure you get a seat.
You have to go on the train which you purchased. You can't go earlier or later fyi.

Plaça d'Espanya, 6, 07100 Sóller, Illes Balears, Spain
Jardins d'Alfàbia is a popular tourist attraction located in Sierra de Tramuntana, Mallorca. It features an impressive historic Gothic-style home and 18th-century water fountains amidst many palm trees and colourful vegetation. The gardens are open to the public, offering visitors the chance to appreciate four-century-old plants and observe various bird species while walking along its peaceful paths. Additionally, guests can enjoy refreshments at the on-site cafe which offers good value for money.
Wonderful garden 🪴 with a lot of nice plants 🌱
I was especially impressed by the bamboo forest and the area about the lake.
Getting to the Park from Palma with public transport (bus) was easy and in a weekday the park wasn’t busy even though I spent many hours in the garden.
Once again I went back with my boyfriend, it was easy to park and the visiting experience was great - I noticed many things and details what I didn’t realize in my first visit 🎋
Kata Okros — Google review
We aimed to be here at 09.30 AM but missed the exit to the parking lot. It shortly after the roundabout. There's plenty of parking space. We bought the tickets online and after we received a pink paper bracelet so we could enter the garden. At the bracelet you can also find the code for the toilet.
The garden looks so beautiful and we walked about 2 hours and made amazing pictures 🥰 So glad that we visited. First we viewer the garden and you end at the house. Make sure you don't forget the oil mill. Afterwards we went straight to Sóller.

I went to this garden on my last day in Majorca and I must say it was my favourite part of the trip altogether! There was ample shade during the hot season (very hard to find at many other tourist attractions) and the history of the house was very descriptive and interesting. Absolutely stunning place.

This enchanting garden in Mallorca is an absolute gem! It's impeccably maintained and offers a truly unique wedding venue. The museum on-site adds a touch of elegance, perfect for capturing memorable photos.

I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to this remarkable place. While the house's interior is intriguing, it's the garden that truly stole my heart

Good to know: Free Parking near the location. 8 euro tickets can be bought online or at the cashier when you get there. Inside the gardens there is a small bar with a few tables, you can get a refresher, a beer, a spritz, a sandwich or similar to eat or ice-cream. The location itself is great, perfect to spend a few hours, just to walk around the gardens, and if you go to the very end you have the chance to see some animals from their farm. The house is also open for visit, with a lot of history around it. Recommend it!

Carretera Palma-Sóller, km 17, 07110, Illes Balears, Spain
Cap de Formentor is a picturesque peninsula located about 20 kilometers from Pollenca and Port de Pollenca. It offers panoramic views of the sea and the island, making it a magical place to witness beautiful sunsets. The road to the historic lighthouse at Cap de Formentor is considered one of the most unique rides in the world, with its twists, climbs, descents, and breathtaking scenery.
A place to visit for its beauty sculpted by nature. As it is a Unesco heritage site I think there is a lot of garbage on the beach area where the bus stop is located.
Pccfn Mail — Google review
Situated on the most northeastern point of the island, we slowly drove the winding roads and stopped at various lookout points in the area, which are all clearly marked. Once we got to the view of the lighthouse, the road was blocked by a fence, so we couldn’t go any further. However the panoramic views were breathtaking and well worth the short drive from Palma.

Mind blowing experience at the Cap de Formentor! Some tips: driving to the lighthouse is allowed Oct onwards (check website for restrictions period in summer), lots of cyclists riding in groups, therefore you need to be familiar with road sharing etiquettes. I Drove up to the lighthouse before 10am on a Friday so parking is still okay, total about 5-10 parking spots. When I leave at around 11am, there are lots of cars going up so traffic gets busy very fast. The road is paved and smooth, not gravel or rocks, however with narrow sharp turns so make sure you are comfortable. We took a small SUV and is fine. Overall a breathtaking experience, I am very happy that I went during low season.

One of the most beautiful routes of the Balearic Islands leading to the very end of the northern part of the island with breathtaking views. The route is not easy and probably not for people with fear of heights. A narrow, winding road will lead you through a real geographic paradise and at the end the lighthouse will be a hard stop to come back from. A lot of mountain chamois on the route, so another highlight of the trip. It's absolutely worth it!

Very long, narrow, twisty road. Views are stunningly beautiful but there is a lot of traffic leading to this place. Bikers uphill and downhill, buses - full craziness. Being extremely careful is a must. We couldn't park on site. Parking only possible for 2 hours, space for 20 cars maybe. Avoid weekends on all costs. Place itself has a cafeteria, you can stop for a coffee - very expensive, only if you were able to park there first. Super windy place as well. Be careful Formentor is closed for private cars between mid June to the mid September. Better check before going by your own car or rented car.

Alcudia Old Town, located on the other side of the island from Palma de Mallorca, is a beautifully preserved medieval town surrounded by stone walls originally built for protection against pirates. This old capital of Majorca offers a strong sense of history with Roman ruins, a Bullring, and charming cobblestone alleys lined with small eateries and boutiques. The 14th-century walls provide stunning views of the town.
So many places to eat and swim. It’s worth a visit for anyone vacationing in Majorca.

The bull ring nearby is closed to visitors.
The Roman ruins seem to have their own opening times…not in relation to their website.

Set within the old Roman walls this is a great place to visit where you can sit and take in the atmosphere or eat at the popular restaurants. There is a museum just up the hill from the bus station all in Spanish though. If you go to visit the ruins of Pallentia (€4 each) across the road from the church you'll get into the museum free. You can walk along the top of the Fortress walls of the old town which gives some good views.
You can walk here from Port Alcudia which takes about 30 mins or get a taxi for €6.50 well worth a visit
Gary Pretty — Google review
Alcúdia stands as a testament to the island's rich history and stunning architecture. As a traveler, I was immediately captivated by its ancient walls, which date back to the 14th century, and the medieval charm that seems to echo through its cobbled streets.
The Alcúdia Old Town, with its narrow lanes, vibrant market, and iconic churches, tells stories of a bygone era, making you feel like you've been transported to a different century.
No visit to Alcúdia is complete without climbing up to the viewing points on the city walls. The panoramic views of the surrounding bays are simply breathtaking.
Eugene Vakhrameyev — Google review
We went to Alcudia for a walk and to visit the market. I believe it is open twice a week and there was a big selection of goods and local foods like sausages. The market is more or less the same you can see in other places, but they normally have some local food that I like to investigate.
Alcudia is a beautiful town and I recommend to go for a walk in the streets. It is not that big and no need to go for the very long walk. Enjoy the old walls and the church in town.

Alcúdia’s Old Town is a charming and historic gem nestled in the heart of Mallorca. Walking through its narrow cobbled streets, I felt transported back in time, surrounded by beautifully preserved medieval walls and buildings. Every corner seemed to tell a story of its rich past.

Passeig de la Mare de Déu de la Victòria, 9b, 07400 Alcúdia, Illes Balears, Spain
Hidropark Alcúdia is a family-friendly water park in Majorca that offers an array of water slides, a wave pool and a play area for children. Although the park was built some time ago, its rides still provide great entertainment. The Kamikaze slide is particularly enjoyable and the tyre slide is amazing too. Visitors can easily spend a full day at Hidropark Alcúdia sunbathing and enjoying the pool along with exciting water activities.
Fantastic water park.. loads to do and can spend all day here..
lockers are €7
Sun beds €5 each..
After 15:00 the sun beds are free, but it’s well worth spending the money.
Very clean and the staff are lovely. Lifeguards are always about and watching, so no worries about the kids going off on their own.
Great Fun….
Linz Taylor — Google review
A great visit with my teenage sons to the Hidropark during our stay in Majorca. We all thoroughly enjoyed all the slides and the Kamikaze slide especially put a smile on my face every single time - just fantastic!!! The park is obviously built some time ago and is a little outdated (hence 4 stars) but it doesn't take away from the rides. The tyre slide is also amazing. I would recommend spending a full day there - it is well worth it.
George J Watson — Google review
A nice place but could do with some more signage to explain which rides need boats or matts and where to collect from. The staff there are really good and helpful but could do with some more to better co-ordinate the rides or to invest in some AI traffic light technology for better queue management. The wave machine was every 2 hours, a very popular attraction that would be better if it was more frequent.

Already the entrance fee is €28.00 and there are plenty of sun beds for visitors and I don't see the points for charging on top of the entrance fee. However to the far left you can access a free patch of grass where you can lie on your own towels.
2) You must try the SlideRang on the far right.
It is not much scary as it looks and it is quite a rides.
3) Wave swimming pool starts from 12:30 noon and every 2 hrs. We've left after 2:30 so I would not know whether they run for 6pm. It was a fun, unique experience that lasts for around 10-15minutes.

Get there early to get good sunbeds in the shade. The sunbeds are €5.50 but worth it.
The park itself is small but has enough rides for a couple of hours of fun for the kids. If you can afford it, get the fast pass it can make your day so much more enjoyable. If not, be prepared to wait as sometimes the queues do not move quickly.
The food is a good quality.

Wow this hidropark was pretty amazing and I have really enjoyed this holiday 😁😊🥰👍❤

Its expensive for what it is if you like to stand in a line in the sun then this is the place for you. I would say on average twenty five minutes of queueing for each go on the slides. It's all a bit dated, €5.50 per sun bed which is not on the website and no signs anywhere to let you know until your asked to pay. I wouldn't recommend it and wouldn't come back.
David Richmond — Google review
Not the best place I've been. Was expecting more than we got. Just a pity the weather has been cloudy and the wind has been terrible. I'd love to try do the place again if we could guarantee the wind would drop and weather would be nice.
The hydro Park is very clean and nice looking tho with bar there and a bar in the pool section plenty of lounges
Tommy Morris — Google review
The park itself is really good. Queues can be up to 30 minutes. But,it is a great day out for the kiddies. Few issues are; unless you're Spanish, you can't take food in, products inside are expensive. Can't wear a t-shirt in the pool, so you're forced to burn or buy their rash guards. It's a shame, if you weren't feeling like you were being ripped off at every turn, you'd feel more willing to spend more.
Overall a great day out, just be prepared for an expensive one
Tom Kearns — Google review
We had a great day here last Friday, slides were good and not much waiting.
Nice amount of slides kept my boys entertained all day, well worth the money. The little kids area looked good too.
You need to rent the sunbeds nd we only used 2 out of the 4 really as the kids only sat down for 2 minutes to eat, but if you don't want to do that there is a grassy area towards the back you can sit on, it's just a bit more out of the way.
Also, be warned, the floor gets very hot, you'll be doing the burning feet sprint if you don't wear sliders or flip-flops!
Emma Chappell — Google review
Quite expensive for a family of 4. The grilled food was ok inside, but you couldn't bring anything inside except water. So not a lot of choices. You could go out and in of the park, but there are not many places to eat close by. Not so many water slides, so you do have to queue everywhere. The wave pool was once every hour, which made it pointless.
Iulian Ursu — Google review
Nice day out. Plenty of food & drink stands, not long to wait for the slides, plenty of sun loungers, that you do have to hire. But feel €25 is a bit steep, if your not using the slides or pools. Overall, worth a visit for all ages.

We were very happy to have this as part of our hotel package. We were impressed with how the lifeguards work tirelessly to make it an enjoyable experience for all. They're strict, but it's good. Everyone is very friendly. Ice cream €4.50 adds up. As do the drinks... Great safe place. The only thing a bit yuck was clumps of hair in the pool, but I guess this can't be helped...
Julie Donegal — Google review
Very expansive (100€ per family) and you are not allowed to bring your own food (even for kids) and only thing that you can buy is hot dog (5€) and pizza.
But slides were okay.
There is no swimming pool, just slides and thats it.
Anyway, it is perfect for kids.

Avenida Inglaterra, Av. Tucà, s/n, 07400 Port d'Alcúdia, Illes Balears, Spain
Alcudia beach is a seven-kilometer-long stretch of white sand and shallow waters, featuring convenient amenities like boardwalks, restrooms, and showers. The crystal-clear water and fine sand create a picturesque atmosphere that's perfect for relaxation. The beach also offers an array of activities including parasols, sunbeds, dressing rooms, beach bars, volleyball areas, kayaking, SUP and pedalo rentals. Additionally there's an area dedicated to children with playground structures.
A family friendly beach, with warm water (at least mid-July), sun lounges and fine sand. The water goes deeper only far off the beach, making it perfectly safe for the young ones. Restaurants are fairly close, as well as showers & toilets / changing rooms. The long beach makes for a great walkaround. 10/10 recommend

The long beach makes for a great walkaround. Highly recommend.

Nice beach, went in January hardly anyone was around. The sand is dense so, it's harder under your feet and easier to walk on. None of the restroom huts were open when I was there (maybe this is seasonal?). There were some people surf fishing, some people with dogs, and others just walking the path or on the shoreline.
Waves were non-existant, so very kid friendly beach. There was some parking available where I went, but not many spaces.

"Alcudia beach – a long stretch of white sand that's simply beautiful. A must-visit! During the high season, it was packed with a lot of people, with restaurants everywhere and long queues at each one. Booking in advance is a must, and be prepared for the crowds during peak season. But, it's absolutely worth it to experience this stunning beach.

Yet another fantastic day at the beach soaking up the sun and a dip in the sea, plenty of places for food and drinks.
Would like to think that the estimated extra revenue of 120 million tourist tax would go into sorting out the loos along the beach wouldn't go a miss.

Alcudia Beach is a true jewel on the island of Mallorca, and our recent visit left us enchanted. This beautiful white sand beach and its crystal-clear waters create a postcard-perfect setting that is nothing short of breathtaking.
The expansiveness of Alcudia Beach is impressive, providing plenty of room for beachgoers to spread out comfortably. The fine white sand is not only visually stunning but also a joy to walk on, making it an ideal spot for leisurely strolls along the shoreline.
The water is unbelievably clear, allowing you to see the vibrant marine life beneath the surface. Whether you're dipping your toes in the gentle waves or taking a refreshing swim, the pristine conditions of the water add an extra layer of enjoyment to the overall experience.
Alcudia Beach is a haven for relaxation, offering a serene atmosphere that lets you unwind and connect with the beauty of nature. The beach's natural charm is further enhanced by the surrounding scenery, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a tranquil escape on the island.
From families building sandcastles to couples taking romantic walks, Alcudia Beach caters to all, making it a versatile and welcoming destination. Mallorca's allure is beautifully encapsulated in this beach, and we can't wait to return for another dose of sun, sand, and sea.

Very nice beach especially for kids. We stayed close to small red bridge and there I felt a smell of fecals few times, I don't know where smell came from, the septic tank, canal or the ship
Platja de Muro, located on the north coast of Mallorca, is a stunning beach that spans five and a half kilometers. The sand is fine and the water is turquoise, making it one of the island's most beautiful beaches. It lies in front of La Albufera nature reserve in the bay of Alcudia and is lined with pine groves.
If you're visiting Alcùdia, just take bus and visit this Spectacularly beautiful beach as long as you walk. Water is not deep at all and clear water swimming of course allowed and I loved it to be there inside and walk inside water for longer than expected. The only thing I felt was missing the public WC. Lots of hotels on the other side of the beach.

You can hire sunbeds and umbrella if you are lucky and go to the beach early.

Plaits de Muro is a long sandy beach with beautiful turquoise blue water. It is a great beach to go for a walk on the soft sand or swim in the water of the sea or even just relax in one of the beach chairs under an umbrella along the beach in the warm sun. There are many hotels along this beach just steps away.

beautiful beach, calm sea when the tide is low it looks like a swimming pool this is a great time for the children, we went twice to the beach good for walking and there are tables with chairs you pay or simply lie down in the sand as many of us do. 😎
take plenty of water and a snack if you plan to stay for a few hours. In these photos, the tide was coming in, but you can go in if you don't know how to swim, it's not deep
this unfortunately was the best beach I found many others you can't get into the water or have a lot of stones. There are a lot of people, but it's very quiet. Thanks 👍
I couldn't take more pictures due to the topless people and children, there were a lot of families. 🙋🏻♀️

Great beach in winter (can't comment for summer). You're likely to have the whole beach to yourself, so dogs are free to roam undisturbed (and, more importantly, without causing a disturbance to others!)
The Hostatgeria del Santuari de Cura is a rustic hotel located in a 14th-century mountaintop monastery in the heart of Mallorca, surrounded by picturesque countryside. The peaceful location, situated at an altitude of 500m and previously a church or monastery, provides guests with stunning panoramic views of the island from private balconies available in some suites. Accommodation boasts free WiFi, flat-screen satellite TVs and wardrobes.

No air condition in the room. The air vent is really loud. There are a lot of mosquitoes and no mosquito nets on the two small windows. Almost impossible to sleep. The room is clean but there should at least a bottle opener and two glasses. It is very basic. The garbage truck and the car with the laundry comes at midnight and packing under the room's windows. You have no chance to relax in this hotel. The day before checking out we discussed on the reception that we can check out at 13:00. The receptionist said! The next day two cleaning lady and another receptionist were mad at us because of the late check out. Their speaking style was really not right. By the way the service in the restaurant was really nice especially the hungarian waitress.
In total I would give 4 stars, but because of this behavior in the last 15 minutes you lost 1 more start. Congratulation
D?vid Schenkir — Google review
the place is beautiful and peaceful and there are three variants of views from the rooms: a view of the courtyard, a view of the back where the restaurant is located, and a view of the mountains, see photos. the cleaning of the room was very good and the ladies at the reception were super kind. breakfast from 8:00 until 10:00. on mondays the restaurant is closed.
there are other options in neighboring towns. I suggest you drink lots of water, there are supermarkets.

First of all i would like to say that I WOULD GIVE 5 STARS to the hotel, it has a beautiful view with decent and equipped rooms.
BUT!!!
On the second day my girlfriend's money disappeared from the room. It was in her wallet which was IN HER BAG. It was only 18EUR in hungarian forint (7000HUF) but we are 200% sure the money was in the wallet in the morning and it has disappeared by the evening. We are also sure we have closed the door in the morning. We can't know who stole it (there was cleaning on that day tho...) and it is not about the amount, it's about our property has disappeared...
We immediately spoke to the reception whose attitude was below criticism, she was offended and advised the following:
1. We should leave nothing at the room, because they are not responsible for values left in the room (when I asked why is there no safe in the room she told me because it is not necessary :D)
2. We should go to the police and they will help with the case (I can imagine how seriously they would take the matter of missing 18EUR which is the price of a souvenir over there)
3. We should LEAVE THE HOTEL, and they will refund the cost of the hotel. She literally said that this option would be the best ALL OF US.
After 20-30 minutes of debate she offered a new option that they can give us free breakfast as a compensation. We accepted but it didn't really make up the the feeling how this case was handled.
So if it's true that no employee will be questioned with this case (which was told by the receptionist) then there must be a thief in the hotel so I recommend not leaving any valuables in the room!
And once again, I would give the best rating to the hotel if this case wouldn't have happened.

The worst idea ever. We went there by car (just a short visit) and going up there was a nightmare. At snail speed we tried to pass never-ending swarms of cyclists. It wouldn't be that bad if they had a bit of decency to let other (than cyclists) road users to use the road and rode single lane with space in between from time to time to allow a car in. View from the top breathtaking- to stressed about the upcoming trip down to actually enjoy it.

Pristine, seven kilometre-long beach that is considered one of the most beautiful in Mallorca. With crystal clear waters and fine sand, it has no buildings nearby and is located in a nature reserve.
Very nice beach. Clean and protected. Convenient with the parking space so close to the beach. The beach is big and you can easily get a less crowded space if you walk like 1 km. Water is crystal . Lue and sand white! If someone says otherwise, they probably just want the beach for themselves;-)

We were at the end of April '22 at "Es Trenc",supposedly one of the most beautiful beaches in Mallorca.
We're very disappointed.
We're aware that it is a natural beach, but these mountains of algae and seaweed have prevented any access to the water.
In addition, it smelled bad all the time.
The remains of the bunkers of that time also do not make the beach more idyllic.
For us, there are definitely more beautiful beaches on Mallorca.

The beach gets crowded but it is very long and wide enough so you can find a spot to settle.

Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment. You sit in a traffic jam for half an hour on a narrow and bad road. In a crowded parking lot, they let you in individually for 7 euros. It is difficult to find a place in the parking lot because everyone parks in such a way that two cars don't end up in two places by accident. From here you walk down to the beach, which you only see at the last moment. Unfortunately, after the torture, the beach is also a disappointment. It is covered in black rotting plant residue. If you managed to get through this, the water is warm and nice. But is it worth it? There are much more beautiful and easily accessible beaches here.

Castell de Capdepera, dating back to the 14th century, is a large ancient stone castle offering historical exhibits and breathtaking views. Despite some discrepancies in operating hours, visitors can still enjoy the exterior and explore the rich historical information provided throughout the space. Perched on top of a hill in Capdepera, this castle has had strategic significance over the years and offers an immersive experience through its well-maintained ruins.
Significant amount of bell ringing attracted me to this site. I spent the day reenacting senses from Game of Thrones and Die Hard 3 (remember Die Hard was meant to be a trilogy followed by a trilogy follows by a sequel). Great times for all!

Well worth the visit. Easy and enjoyable drive from Palma up to Capdepera, and arriving early allowed for a park at the bottom of the hill.

Great place to visit. Inside the castle there are some small paths to walk, and it is possible to access some parts of the top of the walls. You can have nice overlook views from different spots.

Often overlooked, this is one of the five great castles on Mallorca. The walls and main buildings are in great condition. There are good historical information stations arranged upstairs in the Governor's house.
Keith Jonah — Google review
Upon arrival, I was initially disheartened to discover that the opening hours were different from what I had found on Google Maps. However, it is important to note that discrepancies in operating hours can occur, and it is advisable to double-check the castle's official website or contact them directly for the most up-to-date information. Despite this setback, I managed to enjoy the castle's exterior, which was still a sight to behold.
The well-preserved exterior walls, imposing towers, and ancient battlements evoke a sense of awe and wonder. Exploring the castle grounds, I found myself meandering through the narrow pathways, marveling at the intricate stonework and imagining the historical events that unfolded within these very walls. The castle's strategic location provided a vantage point to monitor and protect the surrounding region, offering a glimpse into its past significance.

Really interesting castle with plenty of historical information provided throughout the space.
Located right on the top of the hill in capdepera, you can see why it has had so many strategic uses over the years.
Cool to be able to walk freely through the place where many have walked before for thousands of years.

Cala Agulla is a stunning beach located in a serene area of Mallorca, popular among locals and visitors seeking natural beauty. The 500-meter stretch of fine white sand and crystal-clear shallow waters make it perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and other water activities. The beach is surrounded by scented pine forests and mountains, offering picturesque hiking trails for all levels. Additionally, nearby medieval town Capdepera provides a cultural excursion after a day of sunning and swimming.
Beautiful wide beach with white sand, shady Grove of trees nearby as well. Around the corner is a smaller hidden beach with a more rocky appearance but a bit more private called Moro. Plenty to explore here for a whole day. Also has a rather large parking area!

Der größte, ca. 1 km lange Sandstrand von Cala Ratjada, der dem entsprechend in Saison stark frequentiert ist. Hier ist viel Platz zum sonnen und liegen. Das Meer hier eignet sich gut zum Schwimmen. Hinter dem Strand befinden sich die abgesperrten Dünen, die nicht betreten werden sollen. Zum Strand ist eine Anfahrt mit einem PKW möglich. Parkplätze sind direkt an der Straße vor dem Strand.

The largest, approx. 1 km long sandy beach of Cala Ratjada, which is therefore very busy in season. There is plenty of space here to sunbathe and lie down. The sea here is good for swimming. Behind the beach are the dunes that are cordoned off and should not be entered. It is possible to get to the beach by car. Parking is right on the street in front of the beach.

The best beach we could walk to from our hotel. Since we were there in March, there was almost nothing going on, which was also due to the low water temperature. The sand is soft and definitely invites you to linger

Busy beach, nice water but too noisy because of kids playing all over the area. Good for families, less for couples

A beautiful plaza like out of a fairy tale! For me, the best beach is on the east coast. Crystal clear water, beautiful delicate beach! the only downside is the price for parking 6€ which is a bit pointless for a short visit.

Ein sehr schöner und mittellanger Strand. Am Anfang sind viele Steine im Sand, was unter Umständen weh tun kann beim gehen. Bitte passt auf, aber nach ca. 20 Meter ist nur noch Sand dort. Weiter hinten wird es ruhiger. Es gibt dort zwei Strand Bars, wo Musik läuft und man Getränke und Snacks kaufen kann. In der Mitte, weiter hinten gibt es noch ein Restaurant mit einer Toilette. Man kann sich dort liegen und Schirme mieten, oder auf den anderen Flächen mit seinen eigenen Schirm etc. hinsetzen. Die Bucht ist sehr schön, bei normalem Wellengang, sehr schön zum Schwimmen, ein paar Boote legen in der Bucht an.

A very nice and medium length beach. At the beginning there are a lot of stones in the sand, which can sometimes hurt when walking. Please be careful, but after about 20 meters there is only sand there. It gets quieter further back. There are two beach bars where music plays and you can buy drinks and snacks. In the middle, further back, there is a restaurant with a toilet. You can lie there and rent umbrellas, or sit on the other areas with your own umbrella, etc. The bay is very beautiful, with normal waves, very nice for swimming, a few boats dock in the bay.

After reading many of the reviews, we decided to come to the beach. At 4 in the afternoon we didnt experience any long waiting times to get to parking. The beach was full but that's normal in the season, it was much better than Es Trenc. The water is super nice and shallow, which was perfect for my older mother ;)

Cala Agulla is an unforgettable destination for beach and nature lovers. With its spectacular waves and incredibly clear water, this beach will enchant you and spoil you with a relaxing and naturally beautiful experience.
The crashing waves gently against the shore create a revitalizing atmosphere and invite you to immerse yourself in a world of tranquility and harmony. If you're passionate about surfing or bodyboarding, you'll find ideal conditions here to enjoy the thrill of the waves.
The crystal-clear blue water is simply incredible. You won't be able to resist the temptation to dive into it and explore the stunning underwater beauty. If you have snorkeling equipment, don't forget to bring it along to admire the amazing marine flora and fauna.
Cala Agulla also offers a remarkable natural setting, with golden sand dunes and picturesque pine trees surrounding the beach. Here, you can spend hours relaxing on the fine sand and admiring the splendid surrounding landscape.
I highly recommend Cala Agulla to anyone looking for a beach with captivating waves and incredibly beautiful water. Whether you want to relax on the sand or enjoy water activities, this destination will capture you with its natural charm and leave you with unforgettable memories.

Beautiful beach. Parking is €6 definitely recommend getting here early as parking gets filled up quickly. The toilets open at 11am. There is a small drinks shack but it takes CASH only so bringing food is advised or cash atleast. There is a lidl nearby. Sea is very clear and is amazing for snorkeling.

Playa Agulla in Mallorca is a coastal haven that seamlessly combines natural beauty with accessibility. Nestled near the city, this beach boasts a picturesque setting with a lush green forest backdrop. The fine sand and clear waters enhance the beach experience, providing a perfect balance of relaxation and recreation. Playa Agulla is a delightful escape for those seeking the tranquility of nature without straying too far from the vibrant energy of the city.

Sehr langer breiter, flach abfallender Strand. In der Hauptsaison natürlich sehr voll, aber die Natur und das kristallklare Wasser, lassen uns trotzdem jedes Jahr mindestens einmal hier hinkommen.
Parken kostet 6€ aber das auch schon seit Jahren. Wir haben schon an volleren aber auch leereren Buchten gelegt. Natürlich ist Cala Ratjada auch eine “Party Urlaubsort” wo man hier auch natürlich Gruppen vorfindet, die wir persönlich aber auch noch nie als dermaßen störend empfunden haben. Wir versorgen uns mit dem Kühlrucksack immer selbst, deshalb kann ich zu den Bars und Angeboten nichts beitragen. WC vorhabenden ich glaube 1€, was ich persönlich aber auch okay finde.
Lifeguard und Tretboote kann man hier leihen und wir freuen uns jedes Jahr hier hinzukommen.

Very long, wide, gently sloping beach. Of course very crowded in the high season, but the nature and the crystal clear water still allow us to come here at least once every year.
Parking costs €6 but it has been that way for years. We have already laid in fuller but also emptyer bays. Of course, Cala Ratjada is also a “party vacation spot” where you can naturally find groups here, but we personally have never found them so disruptive. We always provide ourselves with the cooler backpack, so I can't contribute anything to the bars and offers. If you're planning on using a toilet, I think it's €1, which I personally think is okay.
You can rent lifeguards and pedal boats here and we look forward to coming here every year.

Ein schöner Strand, der gut besucht ist. Auch für Familien geeignet. Es sind ein paar Buden, die ab 9 Getränke und Snacks wie Chips verkaufen und zwei Restaurants, die ab 11 geöffnet haben, da. Zwei Sterne Abzug gibt es, weil die Toiletten erst ab 11 Uhr geöffnet haben. Im Restaurant hat man uns um 10:40 weg geschickt, was ich echt übel finde, gerade mit Kindern. Überall sind Schilder man möge keinen Müll im Naturschutzgebiet entsorgen und diesen nicht als Toilette nutzen und dann hat man keine Möglichkeit vor 11 Uhr eine Toilette aufzusuchen. Nirgends sind Schilder, die darüber informieren. Bevor mir die Putzfrau das sagte, hatte ich eine Weile vor dem Toilettenhäuschen gewartet. Duschen haben wir keine gesehen, sodass ich denke, dass keine vorhanden sind.

A beautiful beach that is well attended. Also suitable for families. There are a few stalls that sell drinks and snacks such as chips from 9 and two restaurants that are open from 11. There is a two star deduction because the toilets only open from 11 a.m. We were sent away from the restaurant at 10:40, which I find really bad, especially with children. There are signs everywhere saying that you should not dispose of rubbish in the nature reserve and that you should not use it as a toilet and then you have no opportunity to go to a toilet before 11 a.m. There are no signs informing about this anywhere. Before the cleaning lady told me this, I had waited in front of the toilet block for a while. We didn't see any showers, so I think there aren't any.

Fantastic beach!
We arrived here around 10:45am on a Tuesday and parked in the nearby car park which cost 6€ for the day.
We set up on the far right side of the beach (right side if you’re facing the water) in the cove area. The sand was beautiful and soft and the ocean a nice refreshing temperature to swim in!
We even went away midday to go have lunch in the town/city area and then returned to set up in the same spot.
Would absolutely recommend. It was busy but not crazy. Easy access to the beach so good for all ages as this was a requirement for us.
very clean toilets available at the one of the bars for 0.50€ if you aren’t dining there, this bar was located near the car park, more toward the left side of the beach if you are facing the water - near the surf watch tower structure.
Would absolutely recommend!

Anfahrt über eine geteerte Straße durch das Naturschutzgebiet. Im Anschluss gibt es einen großen Parkplatz, der 6€ pro Kfz kostet, egal, wie lange man bleibt.
Der Strand an sich hat feinen hellen Sand und das Wasser ist türkis blau und hat ein paar Steinformationen, die ganz schön gefährlich werden können. Es gibt 2 Beach Bars und mehrere Restaurants. Hier ist Party angesagt. Der Strand wird auch von Rettungsschwimmern überwacht.
Nachtrag:
Erneuter Besuch in 2023
Der neue Ballermann! Nichts mehr übrig von der Ruhe und dem schönen Strand.
Es gibt nur noch Partys am Strand, der total überfüllt ist. Zum Party machen genau das richtige, für den Rest, besser weiter durch den Wald zu dem anderen Strand.

Access via a tarred road through the nature reserve. There is a large parking lot afterwards that costs €6 per car, no matter how long you stay.
The beach itself has fine, light sand and the water is turquoise blue and has a few rock formations that can be quite dangerous. There are 2 beach bars and several restaurants. It's party time here. The beach is also monitored by lifeguards.
Addendum:
Visit again in 2023
The new baller man! Nothing left of the peace and the beautiful beach.
There are only parties on the beach, which is completely overcrowded. Just right for partying, for the rest, it's better to continue through the forest to the other beach.
Safari Zoo, located near Cala Millor and Sa Coma, offers an exciting family adventure with its drive-thru safari tour featuring over 600 animals such as giraffes, elephants, flamingos, monkeys, and rhinos. Visitors can explore the scenic landscape from their own car or on the park's train. The zoo also includes a reptile house and a petting zoo for educational shows and demonstrations.
Very good safari zoo, we liked it a lot! Very interesting interacting with the monkeys as they come on top of your car. We had a lot of fun seeing all the animals free walking around.
We were sceptical about visiting this zoo safari, as a lot of the comments said that the animals live in poor condition, but is not true, they have food and water and the cages are really ok.
I recommend you to visit it, you will not regret it!
Emil Bianca — Google review
Yes it’s a bit run down but we had a lovely time. Arrived at 2pm on a Friday all the safari trains had gone but they lent us a safari car to drive around (check train times before you go if you don’t have a car). My 2 year old had a lovely time seeing zebras rhinos giraffe elephant lions & monkeys. The place is a bit run down the playground is dated and a bit broken but everyone was really friendly and you get a really good view of the animals.
Emma Bowles — Google review
We went here on a day out and overall we enjoyed it. We got the safari coach up to the location and used the train which travelled around which was overall really nice.
There is a small lack in some of the bigger animals which is ashame as this has led to the elephant and giraffe being held alone and they don't look like they are doing to well. The elephant was standing still and constantly doing a single motion with its head which looked like stress behaviour.
The other animals all looked well and it was a nice day out overall we used the coach to get back and it was a full day out. It cost €19 each but it was a good day.
Ella Simpkiss — Google review
The zoo is not visually from the best ones but it offers an experience which is very unique. You can ride by your car there, so monkeys will most likely jump on it.
The walking part is also interesting because you can actually touch some animals if you get lucky.
Michal Janda — Google review
Really cool place for kids but as adults we also had a lot of fun. In middle of May it was not too crowded. In the end there is also a big playground for kids. There are some opinions about bad conditions for animals but I think they're OK (maybe lions have not too much space but it's an exception). Keep in mind these are animals which are used to high temperatures :)
For downsides: the place is hard to get, there is some zoo bus but it runs only on some specific days and hours (not too often). Also the entrance is next to the big street with a lot of traffic so getting there by bike for example might be an issue. Another issue is that in the middle of May there were only three trains a day so it's good to call before and ask what hours it's available.
Anyway in general I would recommend
Rafa? Pydyniak — Google review
The zoo is beautiful and interesting. Most of the animals in the park are doing well. But the elephant and the giraffe, as well as some monkeys, have very little space and their behavior shows that they long for freedom. Some animals are without a pair and closed in an enclosure alone.
And keeping birds in cages is very cruel. Parrots constantly gnaw the net and scream. I am attaching a photo of their cages, they are very small, it is impossible to fly there!

Very nice idea with the safari and the zoo. Unfortunately, the area and the buildings are very dreary and shabby. The animals also seem very bored and lonely. Shows and generally a renovation is necessary need.
Tim Biernoth — Google review
The safari road to the zoo is great, you could see animals up close and the monkeys jump on the roof of your car. All animals there can roam freely in the whole safari area. The zoo itself (after the safari) looks a bit dated but it is not a disaster as other reviewers describe this place, the animals seem well fed and still had a lot of food in enclosures. Also there is notice on lions enclosure that it's just temporary and they are working on new installation. The adult ticket cost 19€ so it seems a lot, but I guess it is not cheap to feed all animals. I was there in February and the facilities except toilets were closed and there were not many visitors.

So, there are 2 parts of this park: SAFARI and the ZOO. Trough safari you go in your car, windows closed. Do not feed the animals! Monkeys may climb on top of your car so just drive careful and easy.. after that, you get to the zoo. There are many beautiful animals, egzotic ones and domestic.. you can ride little horses, feed them and touch them. Do not feed other animals, especially monkeys cause they go crazy over it. We bought a ton of fruits but it turned out that it was not the best idea, especially on safari because these are wild animals and it can be dangerous to feed them. Entrance: 19 euros/person. Parking: free. Coffee shop and children's playground ✔️ after reading all the comments and seeing the reviews, I was a bit sceptical to go. But, I have to say- these animals are okay. They miss absolutely nothing, except maybe a couple of more trees (safari part). Also, elephant and giraffe are definitely a bit lonely, but it is general problem of all the zoos in the world.. I think this is a really good adventure and worth the money. To the zoo: please plants some more trees. 🌴☺️

You can go by your own car. Animals are free in the Safari. You can meet zebras, monkeys, antilopes in the middle of the road. Rhinos and hipos have a security fence. It is not safe to get off the car and you must keep the windows up. Monkeys can jump on your car :). My 2 years daughter enjoyed the park. At the end of the Safari there is a Zoo with elephants, lions, parrots, monkeys, giraffes.

The concept of the park is interesting: you can ride it like in a safari, and there is also a pedestrian section. But it seemed to me that the animals are a little too thin and sad, maybe they are not fed well and that is sad.
My daughter really liked the part of the petting zoo where you can touch the pet goats😄And they also have a good recreation area with children's slides.
But I still think that the zoo is underfunded🥺I will give 4 stars so that this zoo has more visitors and this money is spent on animal feed🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Hams' Caves, also known as Coves dels Hams, are subterranean grottos featuring a botanical garden and a captivating underground lake. The name "Coves dels Hams" refers to the hook-like formations found inside. Visitors can explore a large botanical garden and witness a mesmerizing projection on ancient rock formations within the cave.
Beautiful caves, great surroundings, a few videos inside the caves with great atmosphere and acoustics help to get more info on the story of the caves, and add to the experience, plus it's nice and fresh inside 😊.
This caves have some very unusual stalagmite formations, fishing hook shape, and hence the "Hams" name in the local language. You can get some good packs and deals booking in advance , plus save waiting time. Highly recommended.
Carlos Ijalba — Google review
The cave is quite small, but very expensive. The situation is not saved by colorful illuminations. The film about GENESIS does not fit into anything. While the second film about the German opera only worsens the perception of the cave as a whole. When I come to Majorca, I want to see and taste the culture of Majorca, not the German opera. I understand that many Germans come here, but do not exaggerate ...
And yet squeezing photos at the exit from the cave.
A little embarrassing.
Besides all those cons, the cave is nice.
cajmer — Google review
Great tour, beautiful caves with increadible formations, good guides, exciting lights and visual effects in the shows. A must do experience and one you won't forget! And the price is reasonable.
I do, however, have a couple of things which bring my review to only 4 stars, in some parts of the caves there is not very nice looking wire fencing, obviously there to protect the formations which is completely understandable however it does spoil the view and looks very flimsy, perhaps glass barriers would be better, with some small holes to take photos unobstructed by the glare of the glass?
There are also a lot of concrete walkways constructed through the caves, which again is understandable for walking on safety, however it's sad that much of the cave floor has been covered by concrete. Wooden or metal walkways would have been much more appealing, however this can obviously not be changed now.
All in all though, I really enjoyed the experience.

Beautiful caves were nature's power really shows off. Fantastic experience. If you never visited a cave before I would recommend to visit.

????? ???? — Google review
A natural wonder. The caves themselves are quite an awesome experience. The accompanying tour feels a bit cheap and like 'tourist mass processing'.
In order to slow down your visit, you first visit one cave system and have to watch two videos. One relevant one about the discovery of the caves, and another rather pointless one just to pass time. Total time for visiting the first cave is half an hour. Then the main cave system is also about half an hour. You are guided from section to section with pauses at each cave gallery. In the bottom of the cave a 5 minute classic musical medley, again just to pass time.
The caves are delicate though, so I understand why rushing a lot of people through would be a bad thing.

Visited here after the adjacent dinosaur land, great for all ages. There was a slight delay whilst waiting to go into the second cave area but nothing unreasonable. Great sight to see and well worth visiting for the stalactites that are unique to the caves and the reasons they’re named as such.

Andy Roberts — Google review
All in all it was ok, BUT:
1. The first 'area' takes 30 min to visit because there are 2 videos that takes around 20. The second area that you'll visit takes 35 min because at least 10 you will wait for others to finish their tour.
2. The "blue" cave is blue because of the lights nothing natural about this.
3. Doesn't matter when your group waits in line, the tourists that came with a bus in a trip always get priority and you end up spending more time then it worths (we spent around 2 hours).
4. There is no guide and no one tells you anything besides a short info about the caves/rooms on the second 'area' that you will hear in the stereo.
5. Big groups that will visit, so you need to have a lot of patience. They don't take any precocious about the number of the people from the group, to offer everyone a chance to see something (it's all about selling tickets)
6. Even if you need to wait between the areas, you can’t go to the restaurant and buy something because its outside the waiting area and you are not around.
It is something that you should / might do once in a lifetime, but most likely you won't go back...ever

This was unreal, so pretty caves, and really interesting to see how the nature made theese incredible caves.
The only thing that I wish was different, was that we couldn’t walk around and see what we wanted, we had to walk in groups and get the full guided tour with films and explanations everywhere. For us young people we wanted just to walk around and see.
The price was around 17 euro pr person, you get a guided tour for 45 min. And 20-25 min of them is a film, and talking.

The Drach Caves located on Majorca Island in Spain are a popular tourist attraction. Visitors can embark on a guided tour of the cave system and marvel at the natural beauty that surrounds them. The caves feature underground paths that lead visitors to the shore of one of the largest underground lakes in the world. The interior of the caves is adorned with stunning stalactites and stalagmites, which create an otherworldly landscape full of unique shapes and textures.
The place is amazing! The „Selftour“ opens every hour so if you want to go inside at 16:00 go minimum a half an hour earlier so it wont be sold out (otherwise you got to wait for one hour) ;) The Caves are beautiful, it can be a little bit too crowded but it’s normal. The live orchestra show we got to see was incredible and magical! (You are not allowed to take videos or pics though, be careful) After the show was over we also got the chance to cross the little „river“ by boat!!! The price is reasonable for the whole experience you get🤩

Beautiful caves worth the visit. The trip underground isn't extremely long, but one of the most amazing caves I've seen. Do note that both the queue at the entry as well as the trip are very crowded. Make sure you're 15 minutes early before the scheduled starting time.
There is no guide, unfortunately, with the personnel mostly there to prevent pile ups and to keep people moving. There is a bit of a rushed feeling to the walk itself. This feeling, however, is taken away when the musicians on the boat arrive and perform their music. This part is definitely the highlight of the tour and is accompanied by an amazing atmosphere. One advice: please resist the urge to film or photograph the performance, because the standing people and screens lighting up are a huge distraction to a wonderful performance. It's also forbidden and causes the staff to constantly have to ask people to turn off their recording. Just sit down and enjoy the moment.
It's nice to take the boat ride to the exit, although it's probably only 200 meters and there is, again, a long queue. It's also right next to the walk, so you don't get to see anything extra. My 4 year old son did really enjoy it though. Decide for yourself whether you find it worth the wait.

Fantastic place to go to. Lots to see. Lots of free parking, When we went on a Monday it was very busy but it didn't seem to be busy. Buy tickets before you go this avoids the ticket office which was very busy when we got there. Great walk through the caves ended up in a massive part of the cave, where we were seated and listened to a live orchestra playing some classical music. It was magical. Then we took the boat back. It was really great, I do recommend this to all.

Very beautiful caves, you’ll get to listen to the live music concert, would have been amazing experience if it wasn’t for the crowds. It is recommended to buy tickets online to avoid waiting. Each hour they let new group of people to enter, it’s a huge crowd of people, everyone stops at random places to take pictures, then there’s long wait for everyone to sit down for the concert to start, after the concert there’s a long wait for the boats. It would have been magnificent if there were 4 times less people.
Anna Moser — Google review
Beautiful but too CROWDED
While the cave certainly boasts undeniable beauty, the overall experience becomes diminished by the overwhelming influx of tourists. In my view, elevating the price point and implementing restricted entry could transform it into a haven of exclusivity, rectifying the disappointment of not even being able to embark on the boat due to the extensive queue.
The spectacle of live music aboard those petite vessels is undeniably charming, yet it's apparent that an upgrade is overdue. This unique aspect of the visit possesses great potential, waiting to be harnessed.
Consider the possibilities: a collaboration with renowned abstract artists, a remarkable projection that interweaves mesmerizing visuals with enchanting vocals, vibrant hues, and thought-provoking images. Alternatively, a collective meditation experience in absolute silence could create a truly unforgettable encounter. The room for innovation is vast, and the outcome could be remarkably delightful.
Moreover, diversifying the offerings could breathe new life into this cave exploration. I find myself intrigued by the notion of returning to this space, but only if it promised an entirely novel encounter. The cave, undoubtedly captivating, has the capacity to metamorphose into a realm of refined experiences, awaiting exploration by those who seek genuine enchantment.

We were planning to go to other caves at the island but happy that we went to this one. Absolutely amazing and fairytale concert at lake under the ground. Recommend also to swim with a boat after a concert in a cave. Been in many caves but never had such experience. Highly recommend due to this unique concert show included in sightseeing.
Daniel Gorski — Google review
Really great way to spend an hour or so if the weather is not good, or even if it is!! Book on line in advance to get best time slot and a small discount and download your tickets. I would suggest to queue at least 15 minutes before your entry time because this way you are at the front of the tour. There is no guide commentary as such, but when you come to the lake you will be seated in the front rows. After the classical interlude (about 10minutes) you will then be well placed to be at the front of the queue to take the boat ride. As the cave seating area at the lake holds several hundred people, if you are at the rear then probably you’ll need to wait a long time or just walk around the lake so missing that chance. Shop and cafe OK. Taxis available outside usually. Short walk into town if you want to explore before or after visiting.

They do let quite a few in every hour, but wasn't too bad, would definitely recommend booking in advance, as were queues to purchase on day.
Can do a boat ride after the concert, but if I'm honest, didn't seem worth it for 2-3 minutes walk
Ronnie Prior — Google review
Very nice place to visit and the little “surprise” with the classical music concert was great!
The only problem really is that it is so crowded that you don’t get to enjoy the experience to the fullest. Too many people are allowed in all at once, so you need to hurry up with walking, there are terrible queues for the boat, where people push themselves and do their best to go in front of you. There was a lady with her child at the top of the stairs where everyone sits for the concert and she just allowed the child to do her business there because there was no toilet around. The staff cannot cope with the crowd, which is a bit disappointing.
The shops just outside the caves are quite nice, but very crowded.
Again, the place is very nice, definitely worth checking out, but make sure you have a lot of patience on the day.

If you have 1 hour to kill and nothing else to do, come here.
It’s a really medieval cave formed centuries ago and it’s 1200m long.
The crowds are crazy and you will suffocate in the queue. It’s hot and stuffy in April so I guess summer will be worst. You will be treated to a decent concerto from a row boat but I was disgusted by the people around me coughing and sneezing.
The end of the concert marks the end of your tour but you will queue to leave the caves with the same long lines coming in.
Tip: Buy Your tickets online and bring a mask to wear during the concert. You will be packed liked sardines In a group of at least 150 people. Wear light clothes and proper shoes. Parking is free and lots are first come first served.

A good place to go with the family €17 for adults and €10 children 4+ booking advisable.
The site has cafés with inside and outside seating. Restrooms and a gift shop.
An interesting walk through the amazing caverns which takes about an hour.
The main attraction was the lake and concert with an orchestra in the boats playing some very evocative music.
The place does get busy so best to book on line which is cheaper.
You can take photos but NO flash also no cameras at all during the concert. They are very insistent about that !

Amazing illuminated cave(s) with a nice show at the end. Be aware that's a very touristy place so be aware that you'll be kinda nicely pushed through the caves.
I don't recommend that place for elderly people or people, who have problems with stairs.
Nevertheless it's great for a visit with a small show and the chance to be rowed on the water. Invest your time and the money; also for a coffee later.
Prices per adult person online 15 and on 17 euro at the counter or machine.

I have been to other caves so loved of knew what to expect however the underground water and lake was impressive. Lights have been used very effectively throughout. Want expecting the live classical music to be any where near as classy as it was, really enjoyed it. Queuing for the boat ride didn't take as long as expected.

Visited as part of a bus trip to nearby Porto Cristo. Regular service from the town centre.
Had already purchased tickets in advance, so did no need to queue at the ticket office. Would highly recommend this option, as we had planned to go early, but these were already sold out.
Nice food in the restaurant and quick service.
You have to move at a fair pace through the cave to get to the point of the concert, with staff moving people on if they are stationary too long taking photos etc.
The classical concert lasted about 10-15 minutes and was really serene in the underground "lagoon" location.

Nice caves with lakes inside. You go through by yourself, at the end there is a classical music concert with live music - they come on a boat and play from the boat.
After the concert you can try to get on a boat to go on the lake - but there are only 3 boats and many many people. They will just take you across one lake.
You can walk the distance on foot and after you take the stairs up and that’s the end.
It was a nice tour, took about 1 hour.
I recommend arriving early in the morning - we arrived at 9.30 and there were already many people🙈 but later it was way worse!

Wow! Very very beautiful and impressive place. Very good to visit during the hot time of the day since there is a good climate in the caves.
The best thing ever is, that the staff makes people put their phones away during the classic concert on the underground lake!!! A rare moment people enjoying something together without their phones nowadays. Well done!!!

I was completely overwhelmed by the beauty of these caves, exceeded all expectations. The sheer beauty of all the natural scenery formed over millions of years was breathtaking. Carefully positioned lighting enhanced the formations providing picturesque scenery for photographing. The climax to this visit was a beautifully arranged musical composition played on a small boat by very experienced musicians on the underground lake. An experience of a lifetime!
Joseph Honour — Google review
The Cave is beautiful but the live classic concert is outstanding.
Buying the tickets online is cheaper with 1,5 euro.
Recommend to be there within 10 minutes before the tour starts.
There is also a restaurant, suvenir shop and free public toilets.
Parking is big.

I imagined a few people and a guided visit through the caves, but the reality was a few hundred of us exploring a wonderful and beautiful cave network that was lit very well. It’s very touristy there is no doubt about that! The caves do sing though. They must have been amazing to discover for the first time! Astonishing to visit and worth it despite the mass of people and staff hurrying you through.
The end of the 300-400m walk was a cavernous cathedral space with a large lake at the bottom. We all sat and three gently lit rowing boats passed with three or four classical music pieces playing in the dark. Not sure that this added anything to my experience and was a bit weird.
The tour lasted exactly an hour. Buy tickets in advance as we had to visit late in the day for our admission as it was so fully booked.
Richard T — Google review
I highly recommend this visit. My favorite part was the classical music concert, when they turn all the lights off and a boat with lights appears with two violinists, one cello and a piano playing live.. simply beautiful. You cannot take photos or videos of the concert. Afterwards you can take a short boat ride in the cave.

We bought the tickets online with a timeslot, but you can also purchase online tickets at the caves of Drach. There's enough parking space and it's free! We arrived at the entrance and you have to wait in line before entering the caves. It's a lot of walking, 10 minutes a concert and 30 seconds on the boat. It was a pity that the accoustics weren't that great. The music wasn't loudly enough. Maybe it's my expectations, but I also thought that it was just a small walk and then entering the caves with a boat...

Beautiful and unique features, stunning underground lake. Ruined by the fact that you enter with 300 other people, forced through a thin walkway, unable to see any of the natural sights unless you push yourself through a crowd of people taking selfies. Barely saw any of the rock features because of how packed with people it was. Concert is a cool idea, but again too many people talking and taking photos and getting told to stop by workers to hear and enjoy fully. Boat ride at the end is fun if you have the patience to wait.
I’ve been on other cave tours with fewer visitors allowed at a time that have been wonderful. I think going forward they should really limit the amount so visitors can fully enjoy the serenity of the place and take time to appreciate the experience.
While it was cool and I’d probably recommend, it was disappointing because of the crowd control (or lack thereof).

Amazing experience. We've booked our tickets online, and we had less than 5 minutes' wait time to get into the caves. Inside, it wasn't so cold as they were saying on their website. We were all in t-shirts, and it was still warm(ish). The caves itself look stunning. There are a lot of nicely done paths and stairs around. The concert was the best part of the whole experience. It's definitely worth visiting. If I ever get the chance, I'd like to visit it again.

Very interesting and did not take very long to get into the caves. Very Very busy, loads of people taking photographs and Very warm, if you visit I would take some water, if you have mobility issues, expect a struggle when leaving as its is quite steep with a lot of steps, definitely worth a visit.
Shaun Dunn — Google review
Quite a big group they let in at each time and it's not a guided tour since the groups contain so many nationalities. You can download or get a paper slip with a little information about the cave.The cave is very cool and the absolute best thing is the concert at the bottom of the cave. Did not do the boat tour on the lake in the cave because I didn't feel like waiting that long.
Baldur Karl Kristinsson — Google review
No comments !! Didinot expected the cave will be too good. I would book another ticket just to listen to the concert that happens inside. With all the lights closed, dark and moist atmosphere, small lights from the boats with people playing Cello is just beyond word of expression. One can easily relaxed and flow with the nice music. Hats off to the organizers and always the performers. !!
Buy tickets online to avoid long queue.

The cave is incredible. Mother Nature created something amazing. It’s really worth to visit-great experience. Better if you pre book your ticket, because sell out very quickly. Very busy. Unfortunately I can’t give 5* because the guide , staff made us run through the caves. We couldn’t spend too much time to look around. They were shouting and wanted us to go as fast as we could. I have heard lots
Of people were complaining about their behaviour. After all we paid to see this amazing place and probably is once a lifetime so I would been appreciated if they give us more time .😞

Well worth doing. The caves are spectacular and the little concert on the lake is delightful. The boats look weird as the come into view because you can't see the rowers. Makes it all seem quite literally magical.
Kevin Burleson-Webb — Google review
The tour lasts for around an hour and consists of a 1,200 metre route through tunnels adorned with thousands of stalactites and stalagmites up to a depth of 25 metres.
The temperature in the caves ranges from between 17 ºC to 21 ºC.
Grand finale of this tour is a live classical music concert. For ten minutes, a quartet of cellos, harpsichord and two violins will play something wonderful for you. Nice!!

Visited as part of Princess cruises tour. Very congested at the beginning of the tour as we made our way down the steps, but after, the crowd thinned out. The highlight was the mini concert on the lake, very peaceful and serene. Tip, sit on left side near the lake for best view. You have to be able to negotiate about 150 stone stairs, down and up!

The Parc natural de Mondragó is a coastal natural park spanning 1,893 acres, characterized by grasslands and pine forested ravines interspersed with dunes. The rich birdlife in the park offers an opportunity for bird-watching amid the dry landscape. The agricultural activity that shaped the land has left its mark in the form of dry stone walls, irrigation ditches and waterwheels creating a rustic appeal.
The clearest sea water with loads of fish you will ever see.
The beech has very little shade so if you visit on a hot day you will be burnt to a crisp.
We did a 4 hour trip here and were not disappointed.

Fantastic hiking place surrounded by inaccessible land. Super clean and well preserved. Trails could be better marked, though. Simply, make it larger!
Filip Jasinski — Google review
We visited the parc in early April and were really surprised by the beautiful nature.
The water looked like we were in the Caribbean and the first routes we wanted to "hike" were easy to find.
The signs on route 5 unfortunately were miss leading us apart the official path. It was not our intention to leave the official paths...
According to the advice signs you can see rare animals here (Hermann's tortoise and a rare mammal) but I doubt that they survive the mass of tourists :(
AND: It's a parc natural (!) which allow motorboats to come close to the beach in this small but beautiful bays...

Cute little beach. There is a small stand with snacks and drinks on the beach, which was clutch. It was beautiful, albeit a bit crowded but understandable since they have convenient parking. Great walk on the rocks along the beach! Only gave 4 stars because I had the opportunity to see nicer beaches, but don't be deterred- this is a nice beach. Fyi- no free parking, but is discounted in the later afternoon (I cannot recall if the discount starts at 16:00 or 17:00).
Victoria — Google review
Very big for so many people. You have to leave your car at the beginning of the parc. They want on that parking 10€ for a car and 2.40€ per motorcycle.
Then you have to go a few minutes down the road. You are gonna find there some bars and restaurants.
The beach is full of dry seaweed but clean. The sea is clear too.

There were two restaurants and a beach hut selling burgers and fries. Lots of trails to walk around with clear signage.
Only negative was the water to rinse off has been disconnected.

Excellent and worth seeing. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to explore more, but alone route 1 and 2 have wonderful viewpoints and interesting fauna and flora to see (if you take some time and don't just rush through) .

❗️Please don’t forget to take your trash to the bins — including wet wipes which are made of plastic. Sadly, a few visitors left their trash, and you can see it everywhere — on trails, beaches, under the vegetation.
Otherwise, amazing natural park, beautiful hiking trails along the coast, lovely beaches.
Hiking trails are partly under the shade from trees, but there are also open sections.
A couple of parking spaces are on either side of the park, at 6 EUR as of 2023.

Clean beach and astonishing scene!
I love the beautiful colour the sea.
Fantastic!
The most beach and bay I have ever seen.
Even better than Margate.
Enjoyed our hours spent in the sunshine and on the beach. Hope we could have rent a paddling panel there. As tourists from abroad, it’s hard to bring your panel there even packed in your bag.

Wonderful place. Crystal clear water. Nice hiking trails, but signs are misleading. We accidentally found ourselves not on the right way. Parking is big, but place is popular so it could be full anytime. Beach is not too big, but quite nice.

This beautiful beach offers stunning natural beauty, with its soft, golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters. However, the presence of debris such as small cores and tree leaves detracts from its pristine charm. To truly appreciate its beauty, efforts should be made to clean the sand regularly, ensuring a more enjoyable and picturesque experience for visitors.

These two bays are the best in the area to visit : the best way by far is by boat , after that cycle or walk from Portopetro, it’s not so far. Driving is difficult: the car park is often full and it’s not allowed to park on the roads. But the journey is worth it; perfect beaches nice restaurant and bars, beautiful water, lovely nature walks through the trees ❤️❤️

The beaches are quite full nowadays but we found a place. There is currently single one working toilet which was really messy. The toilets in the beach restaurant was closed.
Anyway, water is crystal clear, views are outstanding, trails are nice.

Really nice place to for the beach and nature time. I was here outside of the peak season, so the parking was free of charge.
There are two beaches you can access here.
There are a couple of small restaurants where you can grab a bite.
I also saw showers, but not sure they work during this time of the year.
Kalypsotuttifrutti is a unique cocktail bar located in Majorca, offering an interesting concept of a bar/lounge with no menu. Instead, they serve one drink that changes daily and can be alcoholic or non-alcoholic. The price is per person and the amount served depends on the number of people ordering. The bar has received praise for its generous alcohol servings and friendly staff.
Amazing bar. The bar does not work with a menu but with special cocktails for each day. Drinks are amazing and well worth the price (16€ for two but it looked like it was for 3). Extremely welcoming, friendly and personable hosts, inclusively the two parrots that are always availabe to take some pictures with the clients.

Very interesting concept of a bar/lounge. No menu, just one drink that is different every day, goes in either alcoholic or nonalcoholic version and the amount is based on number of people ordering and price is per person. Gotta appreciate the amount of alcohol they put in, not a scam. Also the staff there is so kind and ready to talk with you any time. The hookah wasn't the best, but they are still improving, so that's nice.

Unique cocktail bar that doesn't have a menu, but for €9 per person, they make the cocktail of the day which comes in a wide range of different shaped glasses for your party to drink from with separate straws. There is also 2 parrots at the entrance called Tutti and Frutti welcoming you in to the bar. A great little place we will happily go to again.

Fantastic experience. No menu for drinks, you get what ever the special is on that day which I thought was cool, but they will change things if required. The parrots were fantastic and the cocktails even more amazing. Friendly staff, great atmosphere.

If you’re in Cala D’or absolutelyyyyyy go here! You won’t regret it.
There’s no menu whatsoever, you’re greeted straight away by a team member in a fabulous bright shirt and two parrots, Tutti & Frutti who will squawk a good hello as you’re shown to your seat. Then your server appears to ask what kind of flavours you like and within 5mins are back with a cocktail to share in your group that are in some of the best decorative ‘cups’ you’ve ever seen, volcanos/elephants/shells you name it they can get a cocktail and sparklers in it haha.
We had 3 cocktails here over our stay and loved every one of them.
It costs €9 a head which is totally reasonable and we felt we got our moneys worth for sure!
All the staff are lovely the surroundings are gorgeous and the love the staff have for the parrots (and the biggggg tabby cat who hangs out here too) is lush to see💛

Greeted with a friendly welcome and shown to comfortable seats for our group of 9. Little unsure on what we were served 😂 even though we had a full explanation before ordering. No menu of drinks but both alcoholic sharers were great and kids enjoyed their virgin cocktails. Was a little surreal but worth a visit.
