Introduction

The idyllic bays and pocket-sized coves of the Balearic Islands are sensationally beautiful, creating the perfect backdrop for a luxury family holiday. On this suggested itinerary, allow us to bring you to the islands of Mallorca and Menorca, where we have handpicked a range of fun activities suitable for all the family. Explore Mallorca from the ground and the sky with a vintage train ride and a hot air balloon trip above the scenic landscapes. Then, it’s time to cross the Mediterranean waters to Menorca, where you’ll be welcomed by the immaculate sandy shores and invited to relax at your heart’s content. Just before you return home, enjoy an exclusive boat tour and kayaking excursion around the many calas of Menorca’s coast.

Depart from Dublin to Mallorca.

Upon arrival on the island, pick up the keys for your pre-arranged five-day car rental. Drive along the scenic roads to arrive at your luxury hotel in Canyamel. You’ll stay here for five nights, giving you plenty of time to explore the area’s pristine beaches and exciting activities.

All aboard!

Embark on a rail journey from Palma and journey through the picture-perfect countryside to the town of Sóller. The old wooden Ferrocarril de Sóller will bring your family through oak forests and olive groves, and past charming little stone houses and farms that dot the landscape.

What people are saying

Conor in OROKO arranged a holiday this summer for us and our four teenage boys. We were unsure where to go and his advice was fantastic! He took over completely after a consultation about our expectations, taking into consideration our boys’ needs too! He most certainly delivered a tremendous holiday for us all – way beyond what we could have done ourselves, with each of our three destinations better than the last. All incredibly located and absolutely stunning!

Everything was done for us – check-ins/five-star transfers/individual bag tags/ferry transfers with all seats pre-booked! Conor was incredibly helpful, patient, knowledgable and open. It made our trip truly memorable from conception to finish and I cannot fathom planning a trip again without OROKO! Thank you for everything we will never forget it!
