However, travelers that want to experience a novel way of exploring the island while still getting up close and personal with all the attractions should consider a segway tour in Mallorca. These fun vehicles will have you zipping all over the island without expending any of the effort you would during a more conventional excursion.

Here's all you need to know about segway tours, one of the most captivating sightseeing tours in Mallorca.

What are the best segway tours in Mallorca?

Finding the best segway tour in Mallorca largely depends on how much time and budget you want to spend while exploring the island.

Guided group segway tour in Mallorca

This Mallorca segway tour is ideal for travelers who want to discover Palma’s most impressive sights, without spending too much time or money. Following a brief instructional session, you’ll set off from Palma’s Old Town, exploring all that this ancient Roman city has to offer in about 1 hour.

This guided group tour will visit all of Palma’s highlights including the Palma Cathedral and the Royal Palace of La Almudaina. Your guide will always be at hand to tell you more about the city’s history or show you a secret spot for that perfect photo.

Small-group segway tour in Mallorca

A small-group segway tour is limited to a total of six people, making it perfect for couples, families and groups of friends. You can also choose between a 1-, 2- or 3-hour tour of Palma de Mallorca, ensuring that you explore the city to its utmost.

One of the highlights of this trip is a visit to Portixol, a serene white-pebbled beach next to a quaint fishing village — as well as zipping up and down Ciudad Jardín beach, one of Mallorca’s most famous stretches of shore.

Mallorca off-road segway tour

Mallorca is much more than just the city of Palma, as this excursion serves to prove. Setting out from Sa Coma — a popular resort town on the island’s east coast — you’ll leave the comfort of paved roads behind and head into Mallorca’s wilderness.

Your segway is specially designed to cope with the rugged terrain, and the journey is as fun as it is informative. Along the way, you’ll visit a 17th-century castle, explore the stunning shoreline and learn about the island's amazing history.

Which places are visited?

Palma Cathedral

The Palma Cathedral, also known as Cathedral of Santa Maria, is one of the best examples of Catalan Gothic architecture in all of Spain. The cathedral’s nave is 44 meters high, making it one of the highest Gothic cathedrals in the world.

The construction of this awe-inspiring building started in the early 1200s and was finished in 1601. The cathedral sits on the location of the ancient Roman citadel and is considered the crown jewel of Palma — especially at night when its magnificent facade is lit up.

Palma Old Town

Palma’s Old Town dates back to the first century BC when the Romans founded two new cities on the island — Puerto Pollensa on the east coast and Palma on the west. The port soon grew, serving as the main gateway into ancient Carthage and Spain. The Old Town is specked with buildings featuring Roman, Byzantine and Moorish influences.

Royal Palace of La Almudaina

The Royal Palace of La Almudaina is located next to the Cathedral of Santa Maria and through the years, the building has been altered to fit the purposes of the occupants.

During the reign of the Emirate of Cordoba, it was converted into an alcázar — a formidable palatial fortress. Due to the palace’s defensive qualities, it served as the official royal residence — and to this day it’s the official summer house for the King of Spain.

Bellver Castle

Just outside of Palma stands the imposing sight of Bellver Castle — one of Europe’s only surviving circular castles. The castle was completed in the early 14th century and served as a royal residence to the kings of Mallorca, before being converted into a prison. Today, the castle is under civilian control and is home to the city’s History Museum.

How much do segway tours in Mallorca cost?

Segway tours in Mallorca tend to range between €40 and €80 per person, depending on the type of tour you choose.

A guided group segway tour in Mallorca will cost €40 per person. During this tour, you may be part of a group of up to 15 people — the main reason for the relatively low price.

A small-group segway tour in Mallorca will cost €50 per person and is limited to six participants.

The Mallorca off-road segway tour will cost around €60 per person, but you’ll use a more rugged type of segway — leaving the well-trodden path behind.

What is included?

Segway tours in Mallorca include the rental of your segway and safety gear — as well as a brief training session to help you get comfortable on these nippy vehicles. Some tours may include insurance to cover your trip, while others may levy this as an extra fee.

Where does it start?

There are a number of cities and towns across the island and as such Mallorca segway tours seldom depart from one central location. Most of the time, you’ll set out from Palma Old Town or Sa Coma on the east coast.

How long does it last?

A typical segway tour in Mallorca lasts between one and three hours — making it a great option to see as much of the island in as little time as possible. It’s also the perfect excursion to combine with another activity like a cooking class, wine tasting or food tour.

When is the best time for a segway tour in Mallorca?

A segway tour in Mallorca is great at any time of the day, any day of the week. Consider going on a segway tour at the start of your trip to orient yourself with the area.

The best time of year to visit the island is from the middle of February to May. During these times you’ll enjoy pleasant weather without the tourist crowds.
