Discover Mallorca One Restaurant at a Time with Food Tours Mallorca
Mallorca is not short of places to eat. In fact, that is often part of the problem.,,,
You can spend half the afternoon searching through restaurant recommendations, comparing menus, checking locations and attempting to find somewhere everyone agrees on. Once you have finally chosen, there is still the familiar question of whether to stay for another drink or start searching all over again for the next place.
Food Tours Mallorca has created a much more enjoyable answer.
Its self-guided Wine and Dine experiences take guests to four carefully selected restaurants within one area of Mallorca. At every stop, there is a signature dish and drink to enjoy before the route continues through the surrounding streets, plazas and neighbourhoods.
The food, drinks, reservations and route have already been organised. All you need to do is book, turn up and follow the experience through the web app.
Majorca Mallorca readers and Facebook group members can also receive 10% off their booking by using the discount code MM10.

More Than a Meal Out
A Food Tours Mallorca experience sits somewhere between a progressive dinner, a walking tour and a very well-planned afternoon or evening out.
Instead of spending several hours sitting in one restaurant, you move between four different venues. This gives you an opportunity to sample several styles of food, discover restaurants you may not have found independently and explore the character of the area between courses.
Each tour is self-guided, using a web app that reveals your personalised itinerary 24 hours before the experience. There is no guide to follow, no flag being waved above a crowd and no need to join a large group of strangers.
You enjoy the route privately with your partner, friends or family, moving from one restaurant to the next at the planned times.
It makes the experience particularly appealing to people who like the idea of discovering somewhere new but do not usually enjoy traditional organised tours.
The Palma Old Town, Santa Catalina and Sóller experiences each include four local restaurants, with a signature dish and accompanying drink at every stop. The food and drink are prepaid as part of the booking, removing the need to organise several reservations or deal with separate bills along the way.
A Date Night That Has Already Been Planned
There is something very appealing about a date night that neither person has had to organise.
Rather than booking the same familiar restaurant, the Wine and Dine experience gives you an entire afternoon or evening together. You have four places to visit, food and drinks waiting at each stop, and a route that encourages you to slow down and enjoy the streets between courses.
You still get the privacy and flexibility of going out as a couple, but without the pressure of choosing the restaurants, studying menus or deciding where to go afterwards.
It would also work beautifully for an anniversary, birthday or simply an overdue evening together.
For couples visiting Mallorca, it offers a chance to experience several restaurants in one outing. For residents, it provides a different way to enjoy places we may walk through regularly without taking the time to explore properly.
Rediscover Palma Old Town
Many of us have our favourite places in Palma. We know where we like to meet for a drink, where we take visiting friends and which restaurant we call when we want a dependable dinner.
That familiarity is lovely, but it can also mean that we return to the same small collection of places while walking past dozens of others.
The Palma Old Town Wine and Dine Tour provides an opportunity to hand the decisions over to somebody else.
The route includes four restaurants selected by local experts, with the exact itinerary revealed through the app before the tour. Along the way, guests explore Palma’s historic streets, hidden alleys and plazas, with the route potentially passing through areas such as La Rambla and La Lonja.
There are both afternoon and evening options, running from 13.00 to 17.00 or from 17.00 to 21.00. The tour is available in English, Spanish, German, Dutch and French and can generally be booked up to 24 hours in advance.
It is a good choice for first-time visitors, but perhaps even better for those who believe they already know Palma.
You may recognise the streets. The restaurants may still surprise you.
Palma Old Town or Santa Catalina?
Although the Palma Old Town and Santa Catalina tours follow the same four-stop concept, the two areas provide distinctly different experiences.
Palma Old Town brings historic architecture, cobbled streets, hidden plazas and the atmosphere of the city centre. It is well suited to couples, visitors experiencing Palma for the first time and residents who want to rediscover familiar neighbourhoods.
Santa Catalina offers a livelier, more contemporary evening. Once the fishing district of Palma, it is now known for its colourful streets, busy terraces, international restaurants, independent businesses and active social scene.
The Santa Catalina experience begins at 17.00 and runs until approximately 21.00. Guests visit four restaurants, each providing a signature dish with a paired drink, while the web app guides them through the neighbourhood at their own pace.
It is a particularly good choice for a night out with friends because the evening does not necessarily have to end with the final course. Once the organised part of the experience is complete, Santa Catalina offers plenty of places to continue with another drink.
The difficult part may be deciding which Palma route to book first.
Make a Day of Sóller
The Sóller Wine and Dine Tour turns lunch into a complete afternoon out.
Sóller already has everything required for a memorable day trip: mountain scenery, beautiful architecture, a lively central square, historic streets and the famous railway journey from Palma.
The food tour adds a ready-made culinary route through the town.
Guests visit four restaurants and enjoy a signature dish and drink at each stop, with time to explore Sóller as they move between venues. The experience runs during the afternoon, making it possible to build an entire day around it.
You could travel to Sóller by train, enjoy the four-stop food experience and then continue to Port de Sóller for an evening walk or sunset by the sea.
For Mallorca residents, this is an excellent idea for a birthday, a day with friends or an occasion when you want to get out of your usual routine without having to organise every detail.
It is also a useful option when guests come to stay. Instead of taking responsibility for planning an entire day, you can book the experience and enjoy it with them.
The Answer to “What Shall We Do When They Visit?”
Living in Mallorca means that many of us regularly welcome friends and family to the island.
We love having them here, but entertaining visitors can involve a surprising amount of work. Where should we take them? Which restaurants will they like? How do we show them somewhere new when they have already visited several times?
A self-guided food tour solves several of those questions at once.
It introduces guests to an area through its food while giving everyone a reason to walk, look around and experience more of the neighbourhood. There is structure, but you do not feel as though you are being marched through a rigid itinerary.
Most importantly, the host gets to enjoy the experience as well.
You are not checking booking confirmations, searching for directions or trying to decide where everyone should eat next. That work has already been done.
Four Restaurants Without Four Separate Bookings
The idea of restaurant hopping is very attractive.
The reality of organising it can be less so.
You need to choose venues that are within a sensible walking distance, check whether each restaurant is available, work out the timing, decide what everyone will order and make sure you are not left waiting for a bill when you should already be heading to the next stop.
Food Tours Mallorca has turned that logistical exercise into an experience that guests can simply book.
At every stop, the restaurant knows you are coming. The selected dish and drink form part of the tour, and the route connects the venues into a coherent afternoon or evening.
There is still a sense of discovery, especially because the final restaurant combination is kept as a surprise until shortly before the tour, but the risks and organisational headaches have been removed.
Supporting Mallorca’s Independent Restaurants
There is another important reason why we are pleased to support Food Tours Mallorca.
Experiences such as these encourage visitors and residents to spend money in local hospitality businesses. Instead of concentrating an entire meal in one venue, the route introduces guests to several restaurants, bars and neighbourhoods.
A successful local food scene depends on far more than the most famous restaurants or the places occupying the most visible positions. It depends on independent operators, chefs, waiting staff, suppliers and small business owners who continue to invest time, skill and energy into creating memorable places to eat.
A curated food route can help people move beyond the obvious choices and discover businesses they may later return to independently.
Mallorca should never become a place where visitors simply move between identical international chains or remain inside their hotel complex for an entire holiday. The island’s towns and neighbourhoods need active streets, independent businesses and customers who are interested in what local people are creating.
Food is one of the most enjoyable ways to make that connection.
A Local Business We Are Happy to Recommend
At Majorca Mallorca, we know the women behind Food Tours Mallorca personally.
They are hardworking local business owners who have put a considerable amount of thought into making these experiences enjoyable, straightforward and genuinely useful.
That personal connection is important to us.
We receive plenty of requests to promote products and services, but we particularly enjoy sharing businesses run by people we know, like and trust. Supporting them also means supporting the network of restaurants and hospitality businesses involved in each route.
This is not simply a link to another tourism activity. It is a recommendation for an experience created by people we are pleased to support.
