MALLORCA CAVE TOURS
Good mallorca cave tours fill their morning slots weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 15 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Explore 15 areas across the Hams Caves in Porto Cristo, including the Round Cave, Blue Cave, and 12-gallery Main Cave. Expect films, LED lighting, unusual fish-hook formations, a botanical garden, and a recorded Mozart show projected around the Sea of Venice.

“the caves were beautiful and I loved the concert at the end.”
Join a small group of up to 10 for a four-hour Cova des Coloms adventure. Walk 40 minutes to the coast, swim about 300 meters to the cave, and explore natural pools in a wetsuit and helmet. Guides such as Patrick, Mario, Nico, and Aina lead in several languages.
“Team did a great job with the excursion itself and it was really fun for the whole family. We did walk to the van from the cruise terminal. It was clear we were going to be 5 mins late so took a cab to be on time. Unfortunately the other family in our van was 40 mins late and we all waited. There probably needs to be a time limit on late folks so we donât impact others vacations is the only feedback. Otherwise great activity and great communication from the provider.”

“Perfect tour everything was organized from the pick up, the guide (mariana) and the driver. The time was enough to explore and enjoy the caves and the tour length was suitable, so we have used the evening to do something else after the tour. Thanks to the guide, she was knowledgable and gave us soo much useful information about the tour and the city. And thanks also to the driver for the soft, organized driving, so we left on time and came back on time đđ. We highly recommend the tour for everyone”

“Great trip! Probably unnecessary to stop at all the piers to pick people up - they could easily make their way to port dâalcudia as the one main meeting point - boat was a little cramped between each row. Crew were great and got good amount of time to swim at each spot. Could have done with more child life jackets so we werenât waiting for others to get out.”
By boat, by ladder, by staircase or on a rope.
