Very enthusiastic local, willing to share the best of Mallorcan food. Unfortunately his English explanations weren’t as good as the samples. If you want to do some walking and try some different cuisine, this won’t disappoint. If you need to learn facts and dates, look elsewhere.

Was a fun way to see the city. Our guide gave us a short tour of the outside of the Catherdral along with some historical context which I enjoyed. The food was good that we got to try, the main tapa stop meal was a little out there so you have to be an adventurous eater. The desert stop was the highlight for me.

Great tour and guides! Very knowledgeable and great food selection. They also waited for us as we were running late which was greatly appreciated!

Melanie and Juan were amazing! They made the tour so fun and carefree despite the on and off rain storm that plagued our tour. We had a chance to have some sweet and savory treats along with Wine and Liquor. I would highly recommend and go again!!!

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the city, but her accent made it difficult to understand. I have been on other Viator tours and they were much better. This felt rushed and one of our planned stops was closed - that showed a lack of planning. I asked about using the toilet at one point and no accommodation was made. It was hard to enjoy the tour when I was experiencing this difficulty - no concern was showed. The food was of mixed quality.

Natalia was prompt, friendly and knowledgable from the outset. She has lived in Palma for almost 20 years originating from Madrid. She is clearly popular locally as many of the venues we went to she was greeted warmly. All the places we visited were local business where she frequents with friends and family.
We started with a short walk to the local market including some local history on the way. We sat and ate some divine tortilla, croquettes and a glass of the local vermouth (don’t think 70/80’s martini). The different types of Iberico ham were explained to us - samples later ….We then went on to the best view of the city of the cathedral and learned why local lad Rafa Nadal is so good at tennis 🎾. We then went to a local bar where we had a Mallorcan Pa anb oli with said ham with a glass of local wine.
Next was deeper into the old town with many historical sights to a Mallorcan specialist food/wine shop where we tasted 2 types of pate with local liqueur. Then to our final destination to the oldest patisserie in Palma for savoury and sweet treats. Over 3 hours in total, many steps and a full tummy. When my slightly annoying partner asked questions regarding local history of which she wasn’t sure of the answer, she found a local historian police officer who knew the answers! (And shut said partner up 🙃).
Thoroughly recommended. Go with an empty stomach !

Loved it! Wonderful tour guide, good stops off for a variety of different food. Simply a lovely afternoon. Thank you :)

Walking around the city and learning about the history was the great, Janeanne was a super guide, very friendly and knowledgable with excellent English. The stops were all really interesting but the main tapas at the market was very disappointing- all mixed in a bowl together, didn’t taste good, very unappealing. Nice glass of wine though and other taste stops were fine and in places we wouldn’t have found ourselves.

Great guide, very informative and good value. Would have given 5 stars but tapas in the market was under whelming everything else was really good 👍🏻
RobLnc
Very well organised tour with friendly knowledgeable guides. The food was excellent as was the one glass of wine. One thing to be aware of is there are two identical bars in the market. Remember which one has the tapas!!
