3.Guided Tasting Tour in 16th century House and Olive Oil Factory

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 169 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $31Best value

At Can Det in Sóller, a family host introduces you to a 400-year-old home, its traditional olive mill, and the family’s olive-oil making methods. An audiovisual presentation explains production, followed by a generous tasting of Mallorcan bread, tomatoes, olives, cheese, almonds, marmalade, orange juice, water, and local wine. The mill may be working from October to January, depending on the olive harvest.

“Because of traffic, we arrived 30 minutes late to the tour. We even thought about not going. However, when we arrived everyone couldn’t have been more welcoming and accommodating. They still included us in the remaining time for the tour we had purchased and then we essentially ended up with a private tour of the home. What a wonderful experience! We loved all of it! The olive oil and orange juice both made there were amazing. Thank you so much!!!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 88 reviews · 2 - 4 hours · from $58

“BEWARE: the transfer to this tour is awful. When you are booking it you have an option of 3 pick up points, but on the day you will also stop at about 7 different hotels. This makes what should be a 20 minute drive over an hour. We were picked up in Alcudia at 3.40pm (10 mins late) and didn't reach the winery until 4.40pm. That being said, the tour itself was great! The owner was incredibly nice and knowledgeable the wine was brilliant and the setting was beautiful. Would go back in a heartbeat, but would make my own way there.”

Palma food tour had bags of the history and orientation perhaps a little less food variety than might have been anticipated ( picked the 10 tastings over the 4 stops option) . With the tastings being focussed on the food market (which is great- buzzy, full good variety of foods) it is all in one place. A couple of other stops finishing at a wine bar, but the main guy was out, with the result…”
