Almond Blossom in Mallorca Away from the summer crowds, when the island blooms pink
When millions of almond trees transform the island into a soft pink sea in February and March, Mallorca reveals its quietest and most beautiful side. Away from the summer crowds, you can enjoy the island in pleasant peace and quiet. How you travel is entirely up to you: in comfort by coach via Barcelona and the relaxing overnight ferry, hassle-free by air, or by combining the two. From your well-kept beachfront hotel right on the Playa de Palma, you will discover the island's loveliest sights during your stay.

Day 4: Alcúdia and the North
A full day in the unspoilt north of the island awaits you.

Note on the 2nd departure
On the departure from 08.03. to 15.03.2027, the trip runs in the opposite direction: you fly to Mallorca and make the return journey by night ferry and coach via Barcelona. The order of the programme days changes accordingly. Instead of a separate free day, the relaxed day of arrival is at your own disposal to explore the island on your own. On this departure, half board includes 6 dinners.
Prefer to travel by coach both ways?
If you would like to experience the whole journey in comfort by coach, you can combine both departures into a round trip: you travel by coach and night ferry on the first departure, enjoy an additional week at the hotel on the Playa de Palma and discover the island entirely to your own taste, before returning to Switzerland by night ferry and coach on the second departure. Price on request.
