What to expect

Menorca, though tiny, packs a wealth of historical landmarks, breathtaking vistas, and serene beaches into its charming landscape, all of which you'll explore on this full day tour. You'll take in the unique surrounds of Xoroi Cave, cruise around Mahon harbour on a catamaran, stop by the Tower of Fornells and even have some time to relax on Son Parc beach. Maria, one of our local expert guides, says, 'Xoroi Cave is not just a natural marvel; it is steeped in local legend as the home of a romantic fugitive story that adds a layer of mystique to its already stunning sea views'.

Begin your adventure at the Tower of Fornells, a sentinel standing proud since the British occupation, offering panoramic views that stretch out over the sea. From there, you'll travel to the pristine Son Parc beach. Here, you can dive into the sparkling waters for a refreshing swim or savour a leisurely lunch by the seaside, taking in the tranquil surroundings and soft, sandy shores.

Next on the itinerary is the mystical Xoroi Cave, a natural wonder embedded in the cliffs. Legend has it that a man named Xoroi, fleeing a shipwreck, made the cave his home and lived there undetected with his family for years. The cave, now a lookout point, offers stunning views of the Mediterranean and a peek into Menorca's captivating folklore. After, you'll board a catamaran for a cruise around Mahon's harbour, the second-largest natural deep-water port in the world. Glide over the azure waters and soak in the sights of impressive yachts and historical architecture that line the harbour.

Mahon Harbour Boat Tour with Mahon Market and Gin Distillery

What better way to spend a few hours than discovering and savouring the delights of Mahon, Menorca's history-steeped capital? On this morning tour, you'll enjoy a harbour boat trip, have free time to explore the old town on market day and visit a historic distillery. Nicola, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘If you scratch beneath the surface, you'll find the British influence in many older buildings such as sash windows, panelled doors, lunettes and more. A uniquely Menorquin touch is the ruby-red paint on these houses.'First up is a glass-bottom boat trip in Mahon harbour – the second largest in the world. Glide between fortified islets and admire the opulent villas lining the waterfront on either side. Some date from the 18th century, when Menorca was a British colony. Next, it's on to the old Xoriguer gin distillery. Menorca's favourite tipple has been made here, using the same recipe, since 1736 – yet another symbol of the island's British heritage.There's also free time to wander around Mahon under your own steam, admiring its Georgian town houses, baroque churches, palm-lined squares and narrow, cobbled streets. Head to the centrally located Plaza del Carme, where there's a market of vendors hawking everything from cured meats to fresh fruit under the cloisters of a 17th-century convent. The local square-shaped cheese is highly regarded throughout Spain.

Helen, one of our guides, says "I've lived in Ciutadella for over 30 years and know every single corner, every secret." You'll conclude the tour with some free time to discover more under your own steam or shop for souvenirs.We kick off with a guided tour. There's palm-shaded Plaça d'es Born, considered one of Spain's most beautiful squares. Plus, there are the lavish palaces tucked down the surrounding alleys. You'll visit one of these aristocratic mansions, the 17th-century Casa Olivar, which is stacked with antiques and tapestries, and boasts lavish ceiling frescoes. "The old town is a maze of narrow, winding streets fringed by honey-coloured buildings bathed in sunlight, while the tiny fishing port is pretty as a picture," says Helen.You'll then have a couple of hours to wander around at your own pace. Have a poke around a huge variety of shops in the centre, including places to grab souvenirs, trinkets, clothes and more. It's also market day, offering even more local produce, textiles and leather goods. Don't miss out on picking out some abarcas for yourself – you'll see most of the locals donning these typical Menorquin sandals. Or, use your time to visit a museum or two, head to one of the atmospheric harbour cafés or check out the baroque cathedral. Before the end of your tour, you'll head to Monte Toro, the highest point on the island, for a chance to take in the sea views and take some pics.
