A perfect way to see Parma!

Sid_r, Jun 2024

Our guide was excellent! Bringing to life the history and architecture of this wonderful city with a personal touch of stories and reflections. Learning so much about the hidden details of the buildings that others would skip over and even a side trip to a special hidden bakery. Unforgettable! Highly recommend!

Itinerary

  • Start your tour at Plaza Mayor de Palma, the vibrant heart of the city. This lively square is lined with charming arcades, cafes, and shops, making it perfect for soaking in the local atmosphere. Here you can admire the Church of Santa Eulalia, a beautiful Baroque church, as well as the Town Hall, with its striking architecture. Don’t miss glimpsing the Teatro Principal, the city’s main theater, which hosts a variety of performances and adds cultural flair to the square. This is an ideal spot to enjoy a morning coffee while watching the city come alive.

    20 minutes
  • From there, make your way to the Cathedral of St. Mary of Palma, commonly known as La Seu. This Catalan Gothic masterpiece boasts a central nave that rises an impressive 44 meters, ranking it among the tallest Gothic cathedrals in Europe. Construction began in 1229 under King James I and was completed in 1601. Even a brief visit to the exterior allows you to admire its soaring architecture, intricate façades, and the stunning Gothic Rose Window, while taking in the breathtaking views of the city and the bay.

    30 minutes
  • Next, visit the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, located adjacent to the cathedral. This historic palace served as the official residence for the Spanish monarchs when in Mallorca and dates back to the 14th century. A walk around the palace exterior and gardens offers a glimpse of its grandeur, historic fortifications, and elegant views over Palma’s bay, making it a perfect photo opportunity.

    50 minutes
  • A short walk brings you to the Llotja de Palma, a striking example of Gothic civil architecture. Originally a merchants’ exchange, the building is celebrated for its intricate stone arches embedded directly in the walls, reflecting Palma’s rich trading history. Admiring the exterior and the open hall gives visitors a sense of the craftsmanship and importance of this landmark in the city’s medieval economy.

    20 minutes
  • Banys Arabs

    If time permits, you may as well see the Banys Arabs (Arab Baths), one of the few remnants of Palma’s Moorish past. The tranquil courtyard, stone arches, and serene pools provide a glimpse into the city’s medieval history. Another nearby addition is a stroll along Passeig des Born, a lively boulevard lined with boutiques, cafes, and elegant architecture—ideal for enjoying a leisurely walk or a quick snack while experiencing Palma’s vibrant modern charm.

    40 minutes
  • Es Baluard Museu d'Art Modern i Contemporani de Palma

    For guests who wish to explore modern and contemporary art, the Es Baluard Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art can be visited at the end of the tour independently. The museum showcases works from international and Balearic artists, offering panoramic views of the city and a unique perspective on Palma’s creative side.
