Reviews Valldemossa Carthusian Monastery
“Got picked up in one coach only to be driven to a place where we changed to a different bus, and then had to catch the original bus back to the hotel from Valdermossa. 1 hour for the historic house was far too long and the supposed wonderful gardens were a joke. Overall not a great experience.”
“The 3 places visited were beautiful. However the pick up took over an hour on top of the journey to Valldemossa. Total journey was 2.5 hours. Information from the guide was limited on the way and non existent on the way back unfortunately which was a shame as we could have heard all about the beautiful island.”
“Purchased trip online in advance. Ticket said 4-8hours which seemed quite a wide variation but knowing that as we were based in Cala D'or we allowed travel time of 90 minutes each way and then felt it was likely that timings could meet 8 hours. We were on this trip for over 10 and half hours - making us late for a prebooked a la carte dinner in resort ! There were numerous collection points of guests some of which seemed a long way from the starting point. Trip was multilingual- Not happy”
“We didn't see the email telling us the time had changed to pick us up in the morning as we were only using the app. So hung around for 40 mins waiting for the coach to arrive. The tour guide then kept us waiting for another hour or so for different translator that he had to meet up with. This was eating into our time in Palma and although the tour guide was very informative and knew his stuff. We found it a bit too long and could not hear anything he said in the cathedral. We ditched the tour.”
