Reiseführer Mallorca

After a detailed chapter on Palma, the guide provides descriptions of all notable places around the island (over 100), including attractions and many tips that are hard to find elsewhere. It also includes suggestions for walks and short hikes, as well as twelve island-wide routes for day trips by rental car, bus, train, and boat. Tabular overviews along with maps of the most beautiful bays and beaches, excursion destinations such as old fortresses, castle ruins, monasteries, former manors, and museums on the island, markets, amusement parks, and the most recommended restaurants complement the travel section.

The culinary delights of Mallorca are also given significant attention in the local descriptions; an additional chapter focuses intensively on Mallorcan cuisine and the unique aspects of gastronomy on the island.

It is clear that poets and writers who have lived and worked in Mallorca, as well as the island's vibrant history, are given appropriate space. The latter is supplemented by a comic strip from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages.

The chapters on travel preparation and planning provide clear and detailed answers to all essential questions regarding a vacation in Mallorca, including topics such as cycling holidays and geocaching.

Since 99% of all Mallorca vacationers book their accommodation before traveling, the pages of the guide are not cluttered with hotel and apartment recommendations. Instead, there is a 60-page booklet on optimal accommodation in Mallorca with numerous hotel, apartment, and finca tips included in the cover flap.
