All transport and listed activities

Transport

Transfers from Palma Airport to Sóller and from Lluc to Palma Airport are by private bus. Other transfers as part of a walk are a combination of private and public buses. The public buses can get busy and occasionally you may have to wait for the next bus but this is not usually a problem. Your luggage will be transported from Puerto Sóller to Lluc, so you only have to carry a daypack.

Accommodation

The first four nights are spent in a comfortable hotel in Puerto Sóller with an outdoor swimming pool (seasonal), sun terrace, free wifi, bar and restaurant. It’s also within easy reach of a sandy beach. For the remaining three nights, we have a change of scenery as we stay in the beautiful Lluc Monastery. Although not a hotel, this historic 13th-century building is set amid tranquil countryside and offers excellent rooms, delicious food and free wifi. Single rooms are limited on this tour but may be available for a supplement on request. Please enquire at the time of booking.
