Palma de Mallorca
We will be able to visit the statue of Jafuda ben Cresques, a 14th century Jewish cartographer who made the world-famous Catalan Atlas map that Christopher Columbus might have used in his travels. We will walk down Leather Maker Street and learn about the old bakery named Can Miquel that up until recently was still in use and is known to be built on the site of the “sinagoga nova” or the “new synagogue.” We will look for signs and clues hidden within the walls and street names that reference a once prominent Jewish past. Together we will admire a mural that was recently painted during the pandemic highlighting a well-documented history of lust and conflict that took place between two Jews in the Tower of Love during the 1300s. We will also visit the site of the main synagogue where the Montesion Church now stands and walk down the Street of the Wind where you may find something surprising.

Informative well-paced walking tour
Our tour guide Zohar was very personable and gave us a great history of the Jewish people and pointed out all of the landmarks in Palma. We would highly recommend it.

During these complicated times, this tour is a Must Do in Palma
We are so grateful for the experience that we had with Zohar. All four of us were deeply moved by Zohar’s extensive knowledge, experience and perspectives, and we have been talking almost nonstop about it ever since. We know from Zohar that Dani’s curiosity, tenacity and research skills have contributed mightily to the quality of the information that Zohar teaches, and, given that all four of us are educators as well as students of history, we profoundly appreciate the extensiveness and expansiveness of the tour. Thank you all for dedicating yourselves to the mission of teaching this to those who visit Mallorca. As Zohar said, antisemitism is like the canary in the coal mine…it gives us warnings and cautionary information about how the humans are behaving toward one another, toward other living beings and toward our planet. We took the lessons deep into our hearts and are eager to share ideas with all of you in the months and years ahead. Warmly, Kathryn Hayward and David Thomas and friends

2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mallorca.
How much does 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter cost?
+
Prices start at $114 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mallorca usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mallorca is not rushed.
Is 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 82 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mallorca, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter?
+
Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mallorca can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mallorca and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mallorca within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mallorca?
+
On Outty we rank every Mallorca experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mallorca Full Day Tour Valldemossa Deià and Sóller Experience, Cala des Moro, S’Almunia & Best Coves, SUP & Snorkel by Van, Luxury Catamaran sailing with welcome Drinks Tapas Max10-12Person. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mallorca?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mallorca?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter?
+
Included: All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Lunch; Tea and coffee; Alcoholic beverages; and Bottled water. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter?
+
We will meet in front of the Starbucks coffeeshop in Plaça de Cort in the city center. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is 2-Hour Private Walking Tour Through Palma’s Jewish Quarter offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
