Majorca (Mallorca) offers much more than its traditional image of sun, sand and sea; it's an island full of variety. The chic capital, Palma, with its classy restaurants and shops, gives way to a rural landscape of villages and farms and you travel inland – one that climbs dramatically through the Tramuntana mountain range to the North. Good bus connections and reasonably priced taxis mean that visitors can travel easily from place to place, and a chance to explore the beauty of Majorca should not be missed.

Things to do

Amaze'n Laberintos

The giant wooden maze at Amaze'n Laberintos is much more than just a maze. Not only are you searching for the exit but four check points are hidden along the way...just make sure you don't get distracted by the unusual maze dwellers. Clowns, witches, fairies and water monsters have their own reasons for entering the maze...and a visit wouldn't be complete without meeting one of them.

Located at Playa de Muro, Alcudia
