Hop on and Hop off tours are such a great way to see the cities. Save your previous Hop-on ticket stubs as they can also be used on other Hop-on tours for a discount. You can see a lot of the famous attractions of the city on these tours. You get the added advantage of getting off where ever you want on top of going back and spending more time at any one site.

Beautiful island, and with not much time, good way to make the most of it.

We liked the tour. The tour wasn't so long but you will get a good impression of Mallorca. For those coming with a cruise ship, there is a bus (hop on hop off) stop right outside the port. Don't let your cruise director fool you by telling you that you must go outside the port by shuttle. This may be the case at some other ports but not Mallorca.

Great way to know the island best spots. Bus come and go every 20 minutes or so and so convenient to hop on and off. We enjoyed this. From the Cruise, the stop is just outside the cruise terminal. We recommend it. We had enough time to go to the Cathedral, Fort, several Town Squares and of course the Beach. BTW - It is topless. Enjoy

Very disappointed that stops were not announced as they are on other hop on hop off tours

It is true that there is a stop right in front of the cruise ship terminal, but because of the start time of the bus, you will have to wait quite a while. It would be great if the tour bus company timed their first bus to arrive at the terminal shortly after the boat arrives. The driver should also allow the people with advance tickets to get on first (as a 'skip the line' perk.) This is because other passengers butted in front of us (even though we were the first to stand at the bus station) and held everyone up asking questions and buying tickets, etc. Not much to see on the route...more stops should be added.

Hope that there are no other cruise ships in port when you use this service. We had 3 ships in port not enough buses to cater to all the tourists in town.

This tour was a disappointment. We had to wait over 1 hour for the bus to show up at the first stop near the port. By the time it showed up, we were so pressed for time that we couldn't get off the bus to see anything else. At each stop there were so many people waiting that some had to be left behind and folks were complaining. Then at a number of stops the driver got off and took a small break, which then extended the time even more.

Loop that the buses did was a "horizontal 8". Wish we could have gotten off the bus (to catch our cruise) at the closest point to the ship without having to redo the 2nd loop so we had to then allow this time to be back in time, instead of further visiting the more important area of Cathedral

ok tour! highly recommended!
However, it is cheaper to pay on board to the driver direct.

Great Idea - however the stop for the port is #12 - and you have a lot of people trying to get on the bus that haven't pre-paid and pushing and shoving. It was actually very frustrating. Once we were on and it was great. Suggested to the company that they need someone to sell tickets at that stop when ships are in port.

The equipment did not work. It was very crowded. Did not put the the top up with cold winds and sprinkles. Would not take another tour with Viator.
