We will talk about the different fishing districts of the city , the activity of privateers, we will know some of the most illustrious and some of their stories.

Of course you will also discover curious stories of the merchants and their emblematic place, the Lonja de Mallorca built by Guillem Sagrera.

Un tour de los de verdad, en un grupo pequeño en el que te sientes persona. Pedro se preocupa de llevarte a sitios menos turísticos pero cargados de belleza e historia. Sus anécdotas, que no encontraras en libros ni en Internet, te hacen ver Palma desde la perspectiva de un auténtico Llonget. Si no sabes que es esto el te lo contará con una sonrisa 😉
