Imagine your best day on a bike, finishing at a stylish boutique hotel, a post-ride drink on the beach followed by a gourmet meal in an 8-table hidden gem of a restaurant. Now repeat that for a week and you have our Mallorca Bespoke tour. Grant Reid, from the Mallorca Bespoke Tour 2018, had this to say about the tour:“Great organization, super-friendly guides, and top-shelf hotels and food. They delivered on every aspect of my adventure.”
Tour Difficulty Rating:
The roads, the rides, and the reputation of Mallorca as a cycling mecca are what brought us here, but over years of wandering through villages, mountains, and coastlines, we’re learned that the island offers much more than just the perfect ride. Our careful selection of unique luxury family-run hotels strategically located away from the major tourist centres lets you experience the genuine spirit of Malllorca. Warm welcomes are as important as the comfortable beds and beautiful architecture at our hotels, and their locations allow you immerse yourself in the true culture of Mallorca within steps of your door. An exciting and extraordinary gastronomic revolution has been gathering momentum in Majorca throughout the last decade, one that has seen the emergence of Michelin-starred island chefs, the opening of refined and modern tapas bars, and superb international restaurants starting to offer exceptional value. Each night you’ll be treated to a new culinary treat, from an unassuming tapas bar on a narrow, polished cobblestone street to an al fresco seafood feast on the Mediterranean seashore.

3. What is the terrain like?
Mallorca: The beautiful thing about the island of Mallorca is that it offers all varieties of terrain.
Some days will see us riding narrow, winding roads through olive and almond groves, while others will see us riding rolling coastal roads above the turquoise Mediterranean. Still others will have us climbing and descending through the dramatic Traumantana mountains. Regardless of where we’re riding, you can rest assured that your guides will ensure that all riders, regardless of ability, ride at a pace comfortable for them.

Our tour sees us staying at boutique hotels in different parts of the island: Upon arrival, we take you into the the heart of Palma’s Old Town at the beautifully appointed Art Hotel Palma. Nights 2 and 3 have us staying at Pure Salt Soller, a newly renovated hotel right on the beach in Port de Soller, below a vibrant mountain village in a citrus-growing valley hemmed in by dramatic limestone mountains. We then move north to Binibona, a stunning village of olive and citrus groves tucked up against the Tramuntana mountains, where we spend two days enjoying the estate setting of Hotel Parc Binibona, and finally our final night is spent at Hotel El Vincenç, a modern design hotel located on the water in dramatic Cala San Vincenç.
