  • You'll uncover the region's conservation initiatives aimed at preserving the Mediterranean landscape as you visit Soller's Botanical Gardens, including rare access to the seed bank—normally closed to the public.

What to expect

Picturesque hills and aromatic citrus orchards best describe Sóller. From Palma de Mallorca, travel into the Serra de Tramontana mountains, where you'll discover this eye-catching town, nicknamed the 'Valley of Oranges'.

Historically, Sóller was isolated from the rest of Mallorca due to its mountains, allowing the development of unique cultural and agricultural practices. Sóller's orange groves trace their roots back several centuries, introduced to the region by Arab settlers during the Spanish occupation.

On this exclusive tour, you'll uncover the region's conservation initiatives with your National Geographic-trained guide. In a room at the Botanical Gardens you'll enjoy an audio-visual experience including photos illustrating the history of the orange groves and their impact on Sóller's local economy.

After this, tour Sóller's citrus-infused Botanical Gardens, where you'll study the aromatic and agricultural properties of different citrus varieties, enjoy an exclusive visit to the seed bank and learn more about the garden's work to conserve the Balearic Islands' plant species, unique ecosystems and natural habitats. Finish your time here with a cooking demo featuring a zesty dessert with a citrus tang.

Next, discover Sóller's secrets on a guided walking tour, before stopping by Sa Fàbrica de Gelats, an ice cream Parlor featured in National Geographic España as one of the best spots for orange-flavoured gelato. Finish with some free time to explore at your leisure.

    The guide was very good, knowledgeable and friendly. The people at the botanical garden was also very good and interesting to listen to. The visit to Soller was also very interesting. If anything, we might have expected to see some more oranges, since the tour is called, the Valley of oranges :)
