5.00The guide took us to locations to enjoy fabulous views of the sea and the mountain. It was such a beautiful island to tour and learn all about the history. Guide Angela was excellent as well as driver Pedro.
Best Way to Explore Majorca!

5.00This may have been our favorite city during our two week tour! Camy met us at the port and we had no problem finding her. What I loved most about this tour is there was a separate driver which allowed the tour guide (Camy) to focus on telling us about the sites. She was so prepared and even had a binder with notes in it so she could show us pictures as she was referencing certain topics. She was so detailed yet gave us free time to explore on our own and shop around. She guided us to the BEST bakery! It was a beautiful experience getting to learn so much about this town. I loved that it wasn’t filled with tourists too! We all had such a wonderful time! I highly recommend this tour company and Camy! You won’t regret it!
Worst tour of my life....but Mallorca is lovely.

2.00The island was great but the private guide, charging more than $1,000, was almost 30 min late coming to get us at the port, with no apology. He spoke our language, English, yet we couldn't understand him and he often did not understand us. When i asked him to find on his phone the name of the villages where we were visiting so i could see it in writing so I could know where we were, he did it once, not again for the other villages. When I then asked him to write the names of the villages on paper he got angry. I was already highly frustrated at this point. I knew what a good private guide was and he was not one, far from it! The so called professional guide started threatening me if i was not happy after he sent us off to find lunch somewhere, that he would call his boss and cancel the trip. I didnt know if he might leave us stranded in the mountains of Mallorca. Luckily the driver was able to interpret for us to the guide which helped a little bit. She did not speak English, but understood it better than the guide. She was very nice. We had a driver and a guide, so the driver could stay with the car and the gide could guide around and educate us, but the guide sent us off on our own in at least 3 villages to find our way around with little to no explanation of the history, culture, or not even a recommendation at what restaurant to eat. He seemed to care most about taking photos for us, which really was not my primary interest. That is why we paid for guide and driver, not just a driver. Most drivers take good photos so we did not need a guide for that.. Also most drivers know the little amount of history that he shared with us.....We did not go to many of the places listed on the tour and then the guide had the nerve to tell us near the end that we owed him for 2 hours extra, in cash. $250. I asked to talk to his manager on the phone and explained we had only stayed out 1 hr extra so was willing to pay $125 more. Truly it was the worst tour of my life and I have been on many happy successful tours all around the world. All but this one.
Best tour ever

5.00We had a great tour with our driver Juan and our guide Jeanine. Lots of walking, great scenery and her knowledge of the areas we visited was outstanding! I recommend this tour! At the end we stopped at a cafe and had the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had in my life!
Great tour!

5.00We had a great time, the tour was wonderful, the area was truly beautiful. What made it really special was our guide, Michael, he was very knowledgeable and shared local colorful history and tidbits! If you decide to take this tour, please request for Michael, the British guide!
Natalia from Russia was the best of all tour excursion guide

5.00This review is long over due since our trip occurred on May 20, 2019. The Palma de Mallorca and Valldemossa visit was the first of five ports during our Royal Caribbean Western Mediterranean cruise. The trip was also the first time me and my wife was in Europe. Natalia (from Russia) was by far the best tour excursion guide we had for the week. She was very prompt and made sure we got to all our attractions prior to the big busload crowds arrivals so we could have plenty of time to visit without feeling rush. She was very accommodating/flexible to any of our requests. She was very friendly/engaging and provided excellent historic content to the trip, along with appeared to go out of her way to ensure our visit would be memorable and unique. We really appreciated her panoramic commentary video she took of us on one of the ledges in Palma de Mallorca with the Mediterranean sea in the background. I would recommend requesting Natalia any time you are doing the Palma de Mallorca to Valldemosse excursion. In addition, I would recommend using a Viator excursion over the cruise ship excursions every time.
Wonderful trip

This was a PRIVATE tour for our...

1.00This was a PRIVATE tour for our group of 7. Your agent No Frills Excursions sent a mini coach for over 20 people to pick us up. The obvious intention was to add on other passengers. Also as it happened 5 persons from our group did not join the tour as they were very tired from the previous day's tour. The guide told us that since 5 persons in our group were not coming he was taking other passengers. This was not true as he had already come with a mini coach. Then he told us that since the other passengers had Valledemosa on their itinerary, he was going to skip the Palma sightseeing and take us to Valledemosa, Deia and Sollet Valley. Hence we could not see the beautiful Cathedral of Palma. Also after we had gone a few miles, he told us that he had to pick up some more people from the Port and so the coach returned to the Port to pick up 3 more people. Then despite the delay, he gave a half hour break in Valledemossa and in Soller valley. As a result of all this, we barely managed to get back to the cruise ship 5 minutes before the All Aboard time of 6.30 pm. The guide had told us that if we had time on our return trip he would take us to the Cathedral to take some pictures. Even that could not be done as we simply had no time. To say that we were very very disappointed on this tour would surely be an understatement!!
