    To follow in my footsteps, here is the route on Google Maps (download Google Maps on your phone. You will need to log onto your Google account to see this route: goo.gl/maps/JVcbpiw5yxmZvg5CA I would love to know if this is useful. Let me know in the comments!).

    This is great! I'm stopping for a day on a cruise so will follow this. Didn't get of in Palma last year which I regret! Your recent videos have me eyeing a proper holiday in mallorca

    What a well filmed and well presented vlog, I absolutely love Palma, been many times and generally stay in hotels in the city itself, a very charming and beautiful historical interesting place that I never tire of, fabulous shops, excellent restaurants make it the perfect city break, thanks for sharing and bringing back so many wonderful memories ❤️👍

    Wow you must have been hot! Brought back very happy memories of our life in Majorca. For families with younger kids there is an amazing park behind And built in top of the Intermodal Station

    Thanks for another great video, we arrive on the 14th to Palma Nova, this is the first year we will have been since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. I’m a little bit anxious and wondered if you have ever done a video on “Gluten Free” eating out and shopping in the Mercadona as we will be self catering and wondered if you had any advice you could share. Thanks again Andy

      Hey Andy, Many restaurants have gluten free options now. Come on over to the Mallorca Under the Sun Facebook group. One of the admins is gluten free, so she can also give you recommendations.

    Another great video, Alex. You almost don’t need the beach st all; so much to see and do in the old city of Palma. I want to take that new itinerary of EF Go Ahead tours next year that begins in Barcelona, then a flight to Menorca, then the ferry to Alcudia and on to Palma and Valencia as an optional extension. Check it out. 😮

    Would you recommend going from the puerto pollenca area for a day or are there better places or is it just not worth it.

    Fantastic video Alex! Lots of lovely and familiar footage of picturesque Palma. The map that you are providing to go with this video is fantastic and such a brilliant resource! I struggle to read and follow maps so I think I will play this video when I do this tour aswell as looking at the map with your route. Just love Palma! Can’t wait to return and soak up the city atmosphere again.

      I was the same when I first moved to Palma. It really is a maze of streets . Please go back and see if the google maps link gets you around! You should be redirected if you stray off the path too!

      Very good point.... you know I contimplated going up there, but I had about an hour and a half to film this, and I could see it in the distance. I'll be back making a different video there soon though but it has to be included. It's an amazing place!

    Fab tour Alex. The first time my daughter and I came to Mallorca (we have a Mum and daughter holiday each year) we stayed in Palma. We loved it and I've just seen the restaurant we had a great Paella!! We couldn't remember where it was, so thanks for that. We stayed in the city and went on the buses out to the coast and it was then we found Port de Soller. Have been going there ever since, but I think when we come back again next month we'll definitely have a day in Palma. Thanks again, you're a star!

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  ปีที่แล้ว

      Awww, that's lovely Jenny. My Mum and I used to have Mum and daughter holidays every year and sadly she's no longer able to travel. However, I'm hoping my daughter will keep up the Mum and daughter holidays tradition in the future! Literally travel is just the best time to have together. So many happy memories!

    Hi , we have found your video's very informative so thanks, we're coming to mallorca in early sept arriving 9th, well drive to Soller and stay for 2 nights, then we plan to explore the island, do you think we need to prebook hotels and restaurants at this time of year or should we just wing it?
    Many thanks

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Mark I would absolutely recommend booking hotels because o anticipate the island will be busy in September. Same with any particular restaurant you want to go to. We’ve winged it this summer with restaurants and always found somewhere to eat but hotels are another matter!

    We liked this video because we are going to follow the advice
    We are driving from Alcudia and want to park up in Palma

    Could someone please type it for me

    Thank you Alex i didn't know about the market,been to Palma city a few times.Dont buy off the Gypsey rose sellers,you will be distracted by other gypsies who gather round you,and when you get your wallet out your wallet&money will be gone(pinched)by them. be warned,it happend to me in the plazza mayor,and I was street wise.The basilica San Miguel is lovely inside.

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! I've seen them in action. I was amazed to see the police car patrolling which is actually a first, but I think this presence was keeping them away. Have to really keep your eyes peeled in Palma. ps. The market is briliant - you have to go next trip!

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Marie - don’t worry ! Palma is a really small city and the old town may look confusing on a map so even if you take a wrong turn you’ll end up on a main square. You’ll have a wonderful time! Make sure you take a walk to the city beach and into Portixol and Ciudad Jardín. Lots of buses run back to the centre! Have fun !
