Spain: Balearic Islands, Mallorca & Ses Salines

Your vacation is about to begin! Spend your first night aloft and arrive ready for an unforgettable trip.

A VBT representative will greet you at the airport to start your adventure off right. A complimentary car service will whisk you to your centrally located hotel. From here, you are perfectly positioned to explore this vibrant city at your leisure.

After a delicious, locally sourced breakfast, meet your VBT representative at 8:30 a.m. The representative will be holding a VBT sign in the lobby of your hotel. Please arrive dressed for cycling (and with your pedals or saddle if you use your own) as the rooms in your next hotel will be not ready until 3:00 p.m., and you’ll set out for a warm-up ride before then.

From Palma, journey to the very heart of a breathtaking plateau of vineyards, olive groves, and orchards. This is the wine region of Binissalém in the southern foothills of the Tramuntanas. Wine has been produced here since the days of ancient Rome—even during Moorish occupation, despite the prohibitions of the Koran.

Your loop warm-up ride follows flat local roads past rolling orchards and fields. Enjoy stunning views of the surrounding ranges. Your destination is a lovely finca, where a hearty lunch and delicious wine cap off a perfect spin.

For Spaniards, paella has always held the allure of a large and convivial social gathering. Today is no different. You learn to prepare this historic dish with your host in a spectacular setting. Though the dish originated in Valencia on the mainland, it migrated to Mallorca and thrived under the Moors. With the Christian Reconquest, rice disappeared but was reintroduced as an agricultural staple in the early 20th century in the salt-rich environment of S’Albufereta, where you cycle later.

After lunch, journey to the Es Port hotel, a fortified 17th-century mansion. Its beautifully landscaped 10 acres (four hectares) are bursting with native vegetation, century-old trees, and an organic vegetable garden. Enjoy sea and mountain vistas, indulge in a spa treatment or a dip in the indoor or outdoor pool, or walk to the waterfront in just one minute for lovely beach strolls and shopping.

This evening, savor a special welcome dinner of local specialties prepared by the chef. Weather permitting, dine al fresco on the hotel’s poolside terrace.

Start your warm-up ride on a flat, longer route, then cycle seldom-traveled roads among rolling orchards and farm fields. Pass through vineyards with stunning views of the Serra mountain range and local villages famous of their wine producers. For those who would like more mileage, opt for the longer ride today. Your ride culminates in a stop at a local finca. After your included lunch and wine tasting, you travel back to your hotel via shuttle.

Cumulative Distance Range: 27 – 35 km (16 – 21 miles)

After a delicious outdoor breakfast of products from surrounding farms and markets, begin your cycling day in Port de Sóller, a pretty city nestled between the Tramuntana mountain range and the Mediterranean Sea. Today’s ride leads you to the beachfront of Fornalutx, and into Sóller. One of Mallorca’s jewels, this geographically isolated town boasts a stunning collection of Art Nouveau and neo-Gothic architecture, and an Old Town linked by charming electric tramcars. You loop the valley of Fornalutx, amid an idyllic landscape of mountain villages, orchards, orange trees, olive groves, and vineyards. This is the Mallorca of old, where locals come to connect with the natural world and its tiny villages that seem to have been forgotten by time.

Stop at Soller to browse an array of local shops with handmade products and to mingle with Majorcans before lunch at a very special venue, Can Det, one of the oldest fincas (ranches) on the island. Aside from the addition of electricity, workers here have used the same techniques for some 500 years! The 17th-generation owner gives you a personal tour, complete with a lunch of local products, freshly pressed olive oil and orange juice plucked from trees dating to the 16th century. You will also see the oldest and only traditional olive oil press in use in Mallorca. Later, you may cycle a mostly flat route back to your hotel or opt for more challenging ride through a small mountain pass. In the afternoon, you might take time for a swim in the outdoor pool, stroll to the beach, or pause a while to witness the sun setting over the glimmering Balearic Sea.

The evening is on your own to explore, relax, and find a spot for dinner that calls to you.

If you opt to challenge yourself, choose the longer ride. With its remarkable elevation and longer hill, the reward that awaits you is stunning views. The downhill with some tricky switchbacks, will bring you all the way back to the bay. Here you can decide to retrace to your hotel or to continue with longer option and challenge yourself on another incline to Lighthouse with stunning views of Port Sollér.

Cumulative Distance Range: 14 – 29 km (8 –17 miles)

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

After a bountiful buffet breakfast, travel to the region of Bunyola to start another rewarding day of cycling. You begin on rural farm roads past grazing sheep and lovely fincas with olive and almond groves and vineyards. As you ride, the majestic Tramuntana range marks your progress. This vast UNESCO World Heritage site—recognized for its farming terraces and ingenious irrigation systems—is home to a profusion of wildlife, including several birds of prey. After a stunning morning spin, you arrive in time for lunch on your own in Caimari, locally renowned for its olive oil tradition and fine herbal liquor. This is Mallorca at its most unspoiled, with steep forested slopes rising to high peaks. It exudes endless charms among its narrow streets.

This afternoon, you pass some larger vineyards and wide-open farm fields dotted with sheep or pigs. By ride’s end, you coast into Pollença in the island’s north. This medieval-era treasure is a delight to explore, with its crisscrossing narrow streets that hark back to its medieval origins. Avid travelers can take the time to walk up the town’s famous 365 steps to a chapel known as Calvary. Or visit the decidedly less demanding Museum of Pollença, an art museum in the old cloister of the Dominicans.

This evening enjoy included dinner in the heart of this charming town.

After a fresh breakfast, set out on a relaxing ride along narrow leafy lanes and past bubbling brooks toward the bay of Pollença. Your first destination is Alcúdia, a fascinating city with prehistoric, Roman, Arab, and medieval influences. Explore a bit before continuing your ride in the protected nature reserve of Victòria peninsula.

You will pedal past a few scenic coves before arriving at a prime swimming spot, the sea coves on the Bay of Pollença. Be sure to pack your swimsuit in case you should decide to take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea. As you wade in the water, take in breathtaking views of Cape Formentor, its mountains, and the bay. Linger here a while for our picnic lunch, an inspiring setting.

Head back to your hotel on a spectacular coastal ride, along the S’Albufereta Nature Reserve, the largest wetland of the Balearics—an ideal environment for growing the island’s rice and a haven for migrating birds—enjoying vistas of Port Pollença.

This evening is on your own. Perhaps you’ll browse some of the galleries in the Old Town before finding the perfect place for dinner.

Your afternoon ride features some rolling hills on rural side roads, followed by a flat bike lane on a coastal ride with stunning views. The only challenge you may face could be a north coastal wind from Tramuntana.

Today may offer an additional independent ride for experienced cyclists. Ask your trip leader for details.

Cumulative Distance Range: 23 – 49 km (14 – 30 miles)

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

Bid Pollença farewell this morning and cycle the rustic Majorcan countryside, skirting olive groves, lush vineyards, and more farmlands. Your first destination is Sencelles, a municipality in the heart of the island that offers a glimpse into Majorca’s past. Numerous well-preserved archeological sites from the Bronze Age’s Talayot period and ancient architecture prove that this region has been inhabited for thousands of years.

Continue today’s ride away from the tourist trail to Algaida, one of the best locales to soak up authentic Majorcan culture, especially good-quality cuisine and wines. The name Algaida originated from the Arabic word al-gaida, which means “the base.” The area around this little town has stone remains of Talaiotic settlements (1400-123 BCE). The historic windmills scattered in and around the town dominate the landscape. You pause in Algaida to sample local specialties and wine at one of the oldest wineries on the island, dating to 1229 when King James arrived on Mallorca. Your hosts, the Morauqes family, purchased the estate back in the 15th century and dedicated their lives to the vineyards, following the principles of organic farming.

Leaving the Tramuntanas behind, you next cycle south across the Pla i Llevent region, through the foot of the Ronda hills. The name translates roughly into “plain and east coast,” which sums up the flat terrain on the ride this afternoon.

Continue south to Ses Salines, where your boutique hotel will greet you. Perhaps, indulge yourself in the private garden with the outdoor pool, before you explore this lovely village and find a spot for dinner that calls to you.

In the afternoon, continue along mostly flat byways or choose to shuttle back to the hotel.

Cumulative Distance Range: 33 – 72 km (20 – 43 miles)

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

Start your day with an al fresco breakfast, then return to the saddle for a final day of exploring the diverse environs of Mallorca. Start with a ride to what many call the “salt of the earth” side of the island—Salinas d’Es Trenc. Salt has been extracted from these shores since ancient times. Today, you visit the salt pans and marble-white, dune-like mounds where a more modern operation processes the mineral. Continue along flat quiet roads into the protected national park, a unique salt-marsh ecosystem that hosts some 200 bird species, including flamingoes and ospreys. About 178 plant species also thrive here, two dozen of them classified as endemic, rare, or vulnerable—each of them adapted to the extreme high-mineral content of the earth.

Continuing on, your path winds through the Mondrago Natural Park, where you cycle past fragrant almond and carob trees, and may even spot a lonesome kestrel winging its way across a stand of white pines. Toward midday, you arrive in the peaceful fishing village of Figuera, where the traditional seaside culture has been perfectly preserved. In the colorful bay of Cala Figuera, you find white fishing boats bobbing merrily in the turquoise waters beneath a tidy terrace of white, bayside cottages. For lunch on your own, you’ll find many places to relax, perhaps under the shade of a fig tree where you may enjoy the view of the azure bay and fragrant hibiscus.

You return to your hotel to enjoy your time to relax. This evening, gather once more for a festive farewell dinner to toast your spectacular week in Mallorca.

Today may offer an additional independent ride for experienced cyclists. Ask your trip leader for details.

Cumulative Distance Range: 14 – 51 km (9 – 31 miles)
