Please note that you cycle the same stages from Hotel Las Arenas and Ola Hotel Maioris. The hotels are about 6 miles (10 km) away from each other. The distance details in the daily program refer to Old Hotel Maioris.
Day 1: Individual arrival to Puig d'en Ros
Settle into your hotel, enjoy the beautiful pool area or visit the steep coast in Puig d'en Ros. From hotel Las Arenas, you can make a stroll along the Playa de Palma.
Day 2: Colonia Sant Jordi (31 miles/50 km)
In the morning, the tour begins with a personal welcome, briefing and distribution of rental bikes. Afterwards you will be transferred by bus to Colonia Sant Jordi's sandy beaches and crystal clear water. Your first bike route passes through saline fields, the salt Lakes of Llevant and typical wind mills on the way to Capocorp Vell. There is only a short return ride to the hotel.
Day 3: Sineu, the island midpoint (28 miles/45 km)
The morning starts with a bus ride to Sineu. This small town is the geographic midpoint of the Island and well-known for the golden lion that sits on the stairs of the church. You cycle back to the hotel on beautiful paths through untouched nature and little villages (always slightly downhill).
Day 4: Llucmajor and Randa Mountain (34-47 miles/55-75 km)
Today's bike tour goes to Cap Blanc, where you have a really beautiful view of the sea. Following bike paths your cycle tour continues before stopping for a rest in Llucmajor's Café Colon that has been open since 1928. Llucmajor is also well-known for its shoe manufacturing. If you want an additional, fairly strenuous, 13 miles (20 km), you can bike to the top of Randa Mountain.
Day 5: Inca (38 miles/60 km)
In the morning the bus takes you to Inca, a city known for its leather manufacturing. After visiting some of the city's shops, the day's bike ride begins. Full of extremes, you begin by cycling through idyllic countryside and cozy little villages. As soon as you reach the coast, the island comes alive. From the coast the tour travels along the Playa back to the hotel.
Day 6: Tramuntana Mountains and Sóller (12 miles/20 km)
Today begins with a bus transfer to the Sierra Mountains and Lluc Monastery, where you can spend some time sightseeing and admiring the panoramic view from 3,900 feet (1,200 m) above sea level. You then cycle through orange and lemon plantations to Porto Soller via Fornalutx, the most beautiful village in Spain (excellent Paella lunch included).
Day 7: Palma (28 miles/45 km)
The final day of the tour follows cycle paths along the coast to Palma, Majorca's capital city, via the Playa. Once in Palma, you join a guided city tour through its lovely old city and cathedral. Cycling along the coast you return to the hotel.
