This private tour in Spain is designed specially for those who enjoy quiet family vacation and are eager to discover the beauty of the traditional house in Palma da Majorca. As your private guide in Spain I would recommend you to start the tour from a thorough exploration of the city’s highlights.

We will take a look at the most popular tourist attractions and places of interest in the beautiful Palma da Majorca. We will focus our attention on the famous Gothic Quarter of Palma, where you will be able to feel the special flavor of history. It is worth noting that most of the houses in the Gothic Quarter are open for the public visits, which means that you will have a unique opportunity to enter almost each house and explore it thoroughly. You will see best preserved interiors, rooms, furniture and so on. Surprisingly, but you will be offered tea with some local pastries made according to the old recipes. Usually all the private guides in Palma da Majorca strongly advice to visit the local cathedral, which happens to be the finest example of pure Gothic architecture.

You will be amazed at the beauty and grandeur of the cathedral. Architecture connoisseurs will definitely appreciate its unique interior and exceptional illumination. The cathedral is full of colors which come from the beautiful stained glass windows. The great rose window is of special interest. It is worth noting that most of the people who come to Palma da Majorca are first and foremost interested in the works of the legendary architect Gaudi. It is beyond any doubt that he has created one of the finest architectural works, and if you are interested in several of them, you are welcome in Palma da Majorca.

All in all during the tour you will see several mansions from the Gothic Quarter, including the following ones: Casa Berga, Casa Oleza, Can Marques. All these places are the traces of the rich Mallorcan nobility.
