Mallorca Day Trip to Majorica Pearl Shop and Caves of Drach

Beautiful tour of the caves and classical concert, but due to covid the boat ride was cancelled. Viator shoukd have notified. It was really just a ride to the caves and shopping, could have done on our own but if you are staying in Palma it is a nice option for the ride alone.

This tour was not worth the money. The only highlight of the tour was the concert in the caves. The rest of the trip was worthless. The pearl factory was an absolute joke. Someone is getting a kickback for every purchase. It is a pearl shop. If you use the bathroom out back be sure to wear mosquito repellent. I stood in line outside the restroom for 5 minutes and got 15 mosquito bites. Save your money and your time. Find a way to the caves on your own.

You should tell people that the experience will include a 3 hour bus ride, 1.5 each way as you are picking and dropping people off at different points. You could give the option to meet the bus at the last pick up point or something similar. There was no boat ride due to Covid but that should be in the brochure before you pick the trip.

Since the beginning of the trip, the tour guide was lovely. He surprised everyone by talking in 6 languages and the biggest surprise was when we found realised we come from the same country. He made the trip enjoyable and full of interesting information. Many thanks to Florin for making me feel like a VIP.

This trip consisted on a visit to Sineu market, a visit to the Majorica Pearl Shop and the caves of Drach. The market stop really appealed to us as we like a bargain and there was enough time to get around a good few stalls looking for a bargain, trinket or present. There is a lot of stalls for those of you who like the cut and thrust of the barter. As with most stalls it was leather goods, clothing and a lot of imported tat. However there were also stalls with local crafts (pottery, olive wood products and a few antique stalls). The second part of the trip was to the Majorica Pearl Shop - this promised much but turned out to be not much more than a toilet stop. The top floor has live demos of pearl making and a vast display of the history of pearls (far to much to read about is the 30 minutes we had to stop - the lower floor was a factory shop but once again we were so short of time we really couldn't spend the amount of time to look at everything - on top of that - Jean felt the designs were too traditional (dated). Suffice to say by the time we had queued for the loo and had a quick look around it was time to move on. The Caves of Drach or Dragon Caves were the highlight of the trip and definitely worth the visit without spoiling it for people the sights of large caverns with their huge range of stalactites and mites beautifully lit with well designed paths and rails - guides to help at every turn and the lake concert at the end makes this a must. On balance a good day - around 6 hours from pick up to drop off so not too arduous for those of a less able disposition.

I am happy that I have chosen this Trip and from this page. Trip was well organised and we visited different places: Pearl Shop, Porto Cristo town, Caves of Drach. Unfortunately, we didn't know that there was more caves. So part of the bus was taken to caves (don't remember exact name of caves) and we were taken to Porto Cristo town. Here was very nice beach, shops, place to eat. Later all the group was taken to Caves of Drach. Here we go to the bottom of cave and lessened for live music. Full cave excursion took 1 h (because of a lot of people going down and up to/from cave. Totally worth it to visit.

Spectacular site but you can do it by yourself: bus no 412 or 416 from Plaça D'Espanya. Otherwise you'll pay for a Tower of Babylon experience: same thing in 5 different languages all time long. Also be awere: a concert in a cave is not a place for small babies because the light will be completely off for a time, and the children start crying. However, the cave is amazing and you should definitely visit. Bonus: My wife got the shortest shopping sesion in a jewelry - only 20 minutes 😉

Really wonderful, the caves are amazing and the timings are perfect the opera inside the cave is an amazing experience. the pearl factory was also not that bad as people write in the reviews it's quite informative and the products they have are good too, if you really select, i am sure you will be able to find one which suits you to keep as a souvenir.

Guide was great but would have loved to forgo the factory to spend more time at the caves. Caves were crowded so be prepared for that. The short classical concert was neat.

We signed up for the 1/2 day tour cause we were on a cruise and wanted to come back early and they mistakenly put us on a full day excursion. It was cutting close. We came back on time, however we didn’t enjoy the Drach caves as much because we were worried about not coming back and hoping not hit traffic and miss the ship.
