Hello! I'm Marina, your Official Guide to the Balearic Islands. I was born in this beautiful Mediterranean city and I'm delighted to share with you my love for Palma and its charms. Every corner has a fascinating story I want to tell you. Ready to explore together?
What are we going to see?
We are located next to the tourist office of Parque del Mar to discover the origin of the islands and on our walk around the iconic Almudaina Palace , the island's center of power for centuries, and the charming S'Hort del Rei gardens, we will discover how the city was founded by Romans, shaped by Muslims and immortalized by Christians.
We will walk along the Paseo del Borne , following the old course of the Torrente de Sa Riera , to the picturesque church of San Nicolás and we will go up to the upper part of the city to the Plaza de Cort , km 0 of the island, presided over by a century-old olive tree and buildings of great architectural beauty such as the Town Hall and the Consell de Mallorca, discovering curious historical figures, traditions and folklore of the island.
Exploring the surroundings of Santa Eulalia , considered the city's first church, we'll talk about Palma's Jewish Quarters and iconic Patios, immersing ourselves in legends and traditions. I'll also share culinary recommendations to help you enjoy the local flavors.
We conclude our tour near the Episcopal Palace and El Mirador , which offers spectacular views of Parque del Mar and the Bay of Palma, with the majestic Cathedral as the final touch. Are you up for discovering Palma from a unique perspective? I guarantee you'll fall in love with this city!
