Sandy Bays and Dragon Caves

There really is another side to Majorca. Just imagine: picturesque, quiet bays with turquoise water and fine, white sand. Countless almond trees surrounded by vibrantly-coloured meadows blooming and creating a beautiful scent. Monasteries and pilgrimage churches, castles and dreamlike fincas in the sun - there are plenty of gems to discover in the hinterland that have not yet been discovered by mass tourism. The plains and rolling hills that are located inland, as well as by the east coast, are spoiled by the climate making them ideal for our bike tours. Expect to see varied scenery ranging from small sandy bays and pine-covered rocky coastlines to windmills, olive groves and almond trees.

The itinerary
 at a glance

For your 7-day location-based tour in the Portocolom area

Your travel documents and rental bikes will be ready for you at the hotel. Take a stroll through the charming town centre enjoying its nice cafes and restaurants.

Today’s stage starts by leading you into the agricultural hinterland. Small fincas built with the typical red stone walls accompany you to Mondragó bay. Turquoise sea and the finest of sandy beaches tempt you to take a longer break. On your way back to your accommodation, you will cycle past the chic bays of Portopetro und Cala D'Or. 

In the morning, our transfer will take you to the impressive town of Artà. After a stroll through the town you will take the bike path to Manacor via Son Carrió and Sant Llorenc, both very characteristically Majorcan villages, which are known for their artistic pearls. You will cycle to Portocolom on small and quiet roads going past vines as well as orange and olive trees.

The Queen stage of this tour takes you via the bay in Cala Marcal to dreamy Fenalitx. To get there though, you need to battle the hills. Your hard work will be rewarded with a spectacular view of the island from Santueri castle. Particularly ambitious cyclists can even ride up the mountain, Puig de Sant Salvador. Enjoy the scenery on the way back to your hotel with plenty of giant cacti, peach trees and pine forests.

You will cycle past typical coastal vegetation on your way to Porto Cristo. It’s worth taking a break at the small harbour and the sandy beach. You can also visit the world-famous dragon caves. On your way back to Portocolom, you will cycle through lush green meadows, go past stately fincas and grazing flocks of sheep.

Today, the fertile countryside will inspire you once again. The wheat shimmers golden in the sun, the flowers bloom vibrantly and the fields are full of crunchy vegetables. The beautiful village of Ses Salines is a great place for a break before reaching the true cultural highlight, Santanyi.

There are places in the world of cycle touring that are just so picturesque and diverse that once you have arrived, you can't tear yourself away. They have so much to offer that you will struggle to decide which direction to cycle in first. These special spots are where we at PEDALO have created our location-based tours just for you.

Keep riding, but always stay in the same place

In contrast to staged tours and round trips, you won't cycle from place to place, and thus from hotel to hotel. Instead, you will stay in one and the same accommodation for the duration of your cycling holiday. This hotel will be the starting point for fascinating cycling excursions in the surrounding area. Every day, there will be new routes for you to explore. Every evening, you will return to hosts who put their heart and soul into their work and offer you a pleasantly cosy atmosphere with a healthy dose of class. Instead of having to pack your bags each day, you simply get to ride your bike and enjoy your holiday.

For beginners, improvers - and anyone seeking a breath of fresh air

This type of cycling holiday is designed for anyone who likes to take it easy. If you’re feeling a bit too sore for cycling or the weather isn't looking good, you can simply take a day off. Location-based tours are also ideal for first-time cyclists who may not yet know exactly how much they can or want to tackle in a day. No unnecessary stress, just pure freedom - so your tour can be all about the joy of cycling!

Your travel documents usually include general travel information, a hotel list, a road book and/or detailed maps as well as a textual description of the route; you will also get luggage tags and possibly also vouchers and/or information material on the various sightseeing attractions. The exact contents of the information package depend on the booked trip and its included services.

The documents will be sent to you approx. two to three weeks before the start of your tour. Depending on the trip, you may receive them partly in digital form and partly by post – or you will receive the hotel list and general travel information in advance by e-mail, and the remaining documents along with the maps on site at your starting hotel.

Please note that the travel documents are issued exclusively for PEDALO guests and are therefore not available without a booking.

Travel insurance is not included in our prices. You can decide whether to get a quote elsewhere or simply book your travel insurance online at pedalo.com/en/service/travel-insurance. In any case, we recommend that you take out travel cancellation insurance!

Please note that for last-minute bookings (less than 30 days before the start of the trip), insurance cover can only be taken out within 3 days of booking.
