Things to do in MajorcaVillage-hop around the Tramuntana Mountains

The Tramuntana Mountains jag along the north-west coast of Majorca, serving up cloistered fishing villages and seaside artists’ escapes on one side and caramel mountaintop towns and vertiginous vineyards on the other. Valldemossa is a cluster of art galleries and museums with links to Chopin; Deia is a historic artists’ retreat well-loved by the writer Robert Graves; and hilltop Soller is linked to Port Soller via a vintage tram line. Travelling around here is easy, thanks to a tourist-friendly network of buses, trains, cycle routes and footpaths.

Things to do in MajorcaExplore Palma

Palma is the grande dame of Majorca – an island capital that collects golden churches, boutique-lined boulevards, palm gardens and a bar-laden old quarter under its wing. Put Palma Cathedral at the top of your to-see list. This Gothic behemoth towers over the waterfront, showing off a king-sized rose window and Catalan Modernist elements designed by Barcelona darling Antoni Gaudi. Follow a tour of the cathedral with an amble around the old quarter that spills out from the cathedral doors.Serious shoppers should make tracks for the boutiques on Passeig des Born and Avinguda Jaume III.

Things to do in MajorcaSail through the Caves of DrachThe Caves of Drach are carved out of limestone on Majorca's east coast. Tours take you through the caverns, past spiky stalactites and stalagmites, and include a boat trip on a huge subterranean lake. The highlight, though, is the live concert. A quartet of musicians performs a selection of classical music, which is amplified by the natural acoustics of the caves.

Things to do in MajorcaTravel to Soller on a vintage trainThe train journey from Palma to Soller is a Majorcan must-do. You'll board an old-fashioned train, then chug slowly through the countryside and up through the Tramuntana mountains. Once you've explored Soller, catch the Orange Express tram through citrus groves to Port Soller.
