“best part of day was stop in Port Soller, this would have been better if a bit longer. stop at Colabro was too long, the sea was too rough to get on boat trip at Colabro and a much shorter stop would have been better.

The initial bus trip up mountains is very tedious which unfortunately was made even more so by constant loud commentary by tour guide which wasn't really informative and at times was actually rude.…”
