Soak up the local flavors and colors of Palma on this lovely half-day adventure that begins when you board a motorcoach and set out to see the city's top monuments. A photo stop is made at the very rare, round Bellver Castle and the Gothic Cathedral of Santa Maria. Continue your journey to the historic Village of Santa Maria del Camí, admiring the Mallorcan countryside dotted with farms along the way. As you travel, your driver/guide will share the history of this wine-producing region. Upon arrival, meet the staff at the Bodegas Macià Batle winery, which covers more than 100 hectares of vineyards, distributed around various estates in Mallorca. Noble French grapes, the agreeable sun and the Mediterranean climate guarantee a top-quality wine. Enjoy a tour followed by a tasting of some of these fine wines and consider purchasing some of your favorites before making the scenic return drive to port.

Special Notes:

Participation is limited. Please note on Sunday and public holiday, the Bodega Macià Batle will be closed.

On Sundays, the visit to the Bodega Macià Batle winery will be replaced by the Bodegas José L. Ferrer. Bodegas José L. Ferre is a benchmark of tradition and innovation for the production of wines in Binissalem. Since 1931, four generations have continued to work to ensure that the Mallorcan flavor of our grapes is enjoyed around the world through each of our wines. In 1931, aged 28, José L. Ferrer founded this winery under the name Vinícola de Binissalem, and it was pioneering in Mallorca: it introduced new vine growing techniques, the bottling of wines for sale, ageing of wines in oak barrels, creating white wines using local varieties and subsequently, exporting wines to Europe and the United States. At present, the winery is still managed by the family, specifically, by José L. Roses, grandson of the founder, who worked from an early age alongside his grandfather, and his children María and Pepe, who have been taking great care of the management of the winery ever since they began just like their forebears, working each day to ensure that the years of family tradition and innovation continue to make the history of Bodegas José L. Ferrer unique.
