Overview

This isn't your typical sightseeing tour. We won’t queue to enter monuments or follow a flag through the crowds. Instead, we’ll explore Palma from a fresh perspective — looking up, peeking around corners, and uncovering the stories hidden in plain sight.

Led by a local guide who has lived here all her life, this walk reveals the side of Palma that doesn’t make it into the travel blogs. You’ll hear about haunted houses, mischievous goblins, mysterious symbols carved into stone… and you’ll start noticing things you’d normally walk right past.

Expect interaction, curiosity, and a few surprises. We'll play small games, spot architectural details, and uncover legends together. This is Palma for the curious — a tour for those who want to go beyond the postcard and truly connect with the soul of the city.

By the end, you won’t just have discovered hidden stories — you’ll walk through Palma with new eyes.

What's Included

  • Unique Route: Hidden streets and secret corners not found in typical tourist maps or guides.
  • New Perspective: Learn to look up and discover the city in ways most people never notice.
  • Local Expert Guide: A passionate local sharing stories, secrets, and personal insights about Palma.

What To Expect

Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca

We’ll begin with one of the most breathtaking views in Palma — the Cathedral rising above the sea, reflected in still waters and framed by ancient stone. But don’t be fooled by the postcard moment — this walk isn’t about checking off landmarks. It’s about slowing down, looking up, and discovering the hidden stories woven into the city’s walls.As we wander through quiet alleyways and secret corners, we’ll explore a side of Palma that’s easy to miss but impossible to forget. Expect legends, unexpected details, and a few surprises that will change the way you see the city.

Parc de la Mar

At first glance, Parc de la Mar seems like a peaceful park — a lake, palm trees, and postcard-worthy views of the Cathedral. But beneath this calm surface lies a story of transformation. Just a few decades ago, this space didn’t even exist. What was once the edge of the sea is now solid ground, and those ancient walls behind us were once the city’s true barrier against the water.Changes came quickly with the rise of tourism and modern city planning, reshaping the coastline forever. What you’re standing on now used to be ocean. And yet, in an effort to preserve a sense of what was lost, this park was created — part memory, part reinvention. Look closely: the walls still whisper centuries of history, and the lake holds more than just reflections. But we won't stay here long… there’s something just ahead that most people walk past without even noticing.

Convent de Santa Clara

Tucked away in the heart of Palma is a place that feels like time has stood still. The Convent of Santa Clara is more than just a historic building — it’s a quiet world hidden behind thick stone walls, where silence speaks volumes and tradition is still very much alive. Few visitors truly notice it, and even fewer understand what goes on behind its doors.Founded centuries ago, this convent has seen layers of history unfold, yet its essence has remained unchanged. Inside, a cloistered community continues to live a life of prayer, craftsmanship, and deep-rooted ritual. And though we won’t step inside, there’s a way to connect — not just through the stories, but through something sweet, unexpected, and still made by hand. But first, take a moment… there’s more to this place than meets the eye.

La Calatrava

In a quiet corner of Palma’s old town lies a narrow alleyway that most pass without a second glance — but those who pause are often drawn into something unexpected. Carrer del Vent may be small, but its stones have begun to collect wishes. Tucked between the cracks of an old church wall, you'll find scraps of paper — messages, hopes, maybe even secrets. It’s become a spontaneous local ritual, quietly echoing the Wailing Wall of Jerusalem, right here in the heart of Mallorca.But this street also carries a legend — one whispered on the wind that always seems to flow through it. They say a trick played on the devil left him furious, doomed to blow forever down this path. Whether you believe it or not, the breeze never quite leaves this alley. Look closely. Listen. You might just feel a story brush past you. And maybe — just maybe — you'll be tempted to leave a note behind of your own.

Jehuda Cresques

This quiet square holds echoes of two powerful legacies: one, a mysterious order of knights sworn to secrecy; the other, a visionary mapmaker who redrew the edges of the known world. After the conquest of Mallorca in the 13th century, this very spot became a key stronghold of the Knights Templar — guardians, warriors, and keepers of secrets. Though centuries have passed, traces of their presence still linger in the stones.A few steps away, a modern sculpture stands in quiet tribute to a man whose influence stretched across continents: Jafudà Cresques. Born here in medieval Palma, he and his father crafted one of the most extraordinary maps of their time — a window into the minds and imaginations of a world still waiting to be discovered. Take a moment here. Look closely. This plaza connects paths you wouldn’t expect — between faith and knowledge, mystery and memory.

Plaça de Sant Francesc

We end our journey in front of the stunning Basilica of Sant Francesc — one of Palma’s finest Gothic landmarks, later dressed in a baroque façade. Built in the late 13th century, this grand church has stood through centuries of history, faith, and change. But behind its peaceful exterior, it holds stories that quietly blur the line between the earthly and the divine.Within its walls lies the tomb of Ramon Llull — mystic, philosopher, and missionary — whose life ended far from here, but whose legacy still echoes through the city. And while official records remain silent, whispers persist about a body that defied decay — a tale of incorruptibility that draws from ancient Catholic tradition. As you take in the solemn atmosphere of this square, ask yourself: where does faith end and mystery begin?
