About this tour
This is a planning call built around Palma's tapas bars rather than a live walk. I talk through a shortlist of places near Plaça Major, what each one is known for, and which wines or vermouths go with which dish. You leave with a route you can follow yourself whenever you like.
We start with what kind of evening you are after, loud and lively or quiet and slow, and I build the list from there. I check a couple of details with you along the way to make sure the order makes sense. At the end I send over the full list with notes on each stop.
This suits travellers who prefer planning their own evening but want a local's shortlist rather than a generic list online. It also works well if your visit is short and you want to use the time well.

- A 30-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip

Questions about this tour
What will the call cover?
The guide talks you through Palma de Mallorca: where to go, what to eat, and answers to whatever you ask.
What happens if the call drops?
The guide will try you again straight away.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Do I need to buy or cook anything?
No. This is a conversation: the guide describes the dishes and where to find them, so you can try them yourself whenever suits you.
How it works
- Your guide calls the number you give at booking.
