Let a Mallorca holiday 'transport you into the past'

Holiday makers can board the beautiful piece of history and make the same journey that tourists and locals have been making for almost a century.

Travelling along a narrow-gauge track, the antique train passes through striking landscapes at a leisurely pace and 13 tunnels carved into the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range.

The trip is described by Spanish Fiestas as "one of Europe's great little rail journeys".

Holiday makers staying in the quaint bay of Cala Santanyi are just a short drive from Palma - Mallorca's vibrant and entertaining capital.

Cala Santanyi is home to one of the island's most colourful markets, where tourists and Mallorcans come from miles around to purchase fresh produce and items meticulously handcrafted by locals.
