What we will do

We leave the port and make our way to the point that marks the start of our adventure: here, an instructor will offer some pointers before entrusting each pair of participants with a splendid vintage Vespa.
Sitting astride our classic scooters, we head straight out of the city and on along a quiet road that leads us through some memorable scenery.
Cutting inland, we make our way to our first destination, Calvià, a picturesque town perched on the slopes of the Serra de Tramuntana that preserves precious examples of Romanesque and Gothic architecture.
Roaring along on our Vespas, we continue on to Santa Ponsa, a resort in a protected bay on Majorca’s stunning south-east coast whose heyday lasted up into the 1950s.
We stop at a viewpoint overlooking the Malgrats archipelago, a natural reserve where the environment has been preserved in all its unspoilt, natural glory.
Our tour continues on to the fabulous beach of Portals Vells, a small stretch of fine, white sand surrounded by pine trees on the northernmost point of the Bay of Palma.
Here, we park our Vespas and take some time to relax on the beach. Those who want to can take a dip in the crystal-clear waters, or enjoy a snack at one of the numerous bars or restaurants, before we make our way back to Palma to return our scooters and rejoin the ship.
