Palma Old Town & Market Walking Tour with Wine, Ham & Cheese

About this tour

Wander Palma's medieval streets and working market with a local guide who knows where locals actually eat. You'll spend two-and-a-half hours exploring the city's bones—narrow lanes, corner shops, the real market—then settle in to taste jamón, cheese, and wine with proper context. This isn't a rushed hop between tourist spots; it's a deliberate walk that builds your understanding of how Palmaians live, eat, and choose their food. Brunch included.

Highlights

What to expect

You'll start in the Old Town proper, walking at a conversational pace through the lanes where residents shop and live. The guide points out architecture and history without lecturing. At the market, you'll see vendors and learn what distinguishes good jamón from ordinary stuff—why price varies, how to judge ripeness and cure. Then you sit down somewhere local, taste three or four products with wine, and talk through what you're tasting. No rushing between venues. The whole thing takes two-and-a-half hours and feels more like a friend showing you around than a scheduled tour.
