How Expensive is Mallorca? Spanish Island in the Mediterranean

[@mlwtennessee322]

Thank you for taking me all over the world, Gabriel! As of yesterday, I've watched every single video you've ever made. I can't begin to tell you how much enjoyment your videos have given me. Keep right on doing what you do!

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Wow, that's amazing. By the way I've been planning to make a playlist of all my videos in order, which would make it easier to watch them all. Thanks a lot for watching and congrats.

Thank you for your service and OOH RAH Semper Fi! (Proud daughter and sister of Marines!)

[@neptunespirit]

you arrived in the high season so the prices are high, if you came in mar, april, may, june, sep,t okt, nov, you can have 7 days hotel, inclusive flight 3 -4 hours, and maybe food on hotel included, for just 200 dollars...

[@dereka3341]

Gabriel, fan from Kentucky here. Mallorca is where Rafael Nadal lives. If you are a tennis fan, you should see his tennis school, somewhere on the island.

[@davidcrow6234]

Great video, Gabriel! I've been wanting to do the Cami de Cavalls for years - excited to see what it's like on Menorca. Btw, a good option for a bit cooler temps but still beautiful beaches, towns, and mountain hiking is going to the north of Spain. There are camping grounds just outside of the cities like San Sebastian, Zarautz, Santander, plenty of others (all within walking distance) and the Camino del norte goes along the cost and is absolutely beautiful. Good travels!

[@christinechico5293]

Thank you for such informative videos. You share the reality of travel. i.e. delays, missed connecting flights along with the true expense once you arrive. I especially enjoy seeing locations I've yet to visit! Safe travels! P.S. So. Cal in da house! ✌️🤙

[@QueenBee-mk8xm]

Nice to see Cala Major. Cala Major beach is very pretty and worth visiting, but often packed from Easter til the end of the summer. Completely packed in summer months like July and August.

Thanks Gabriel for another great video. Beautiful island. Thanks for filming the musician,growing up in the Dominican Republic i used to sing that song with my mom while we were doing our house work,I enjoy watching the video and that part brought tears to my eyes.

[@johnvijlbrief896]

I would like to compliment you on your very informative video clips and entertaining manner of speaking. I to go to Mallorca soon and saw your video full of tips. You know how to give your viewers the right kind of tips! I'm going to watch more of your video clips! Keep it up, dude!

[@marafarnham595]

Beautiful Gabriel! Thank you! Stay safe ❤😊 can't wait to see more of Spain!

[@susanvp4685]

All of your videos are very interesting. I was in Palma 3 weeks ago so neat to see some familiar places. Happy travelling. Cheers from Ottawa🇨🇦

[@RadoslavSharapanov]

There is a great retro train to Soller through the mountains up north. Enjoy!

Great video again brother! Peace from UK ✌🏻

[@raycarl8747]

We are in Spain at the same time. But I’m in Galicia. 😱 I hope to one day run into you as we both are traveling around

[@outolempinimi5165]

If you are looking something cheap to travel in Spain you might want to give Camino de Santiago a try. Accommodation in hostels and sometimes in monasteries is generally very affordable and of course it’s a good way to get outdoors exercise (sometimes a bit too much and some resting days are probably called for). Another magnificent place for spectacular views in Spain is Gran Canaria, but definitely not the cheapest.

[@hermenegildoc3933]

Yeah, it is usually cheap except Fromista

[@neilfromcork]

If you can't get to Menorca for the hiking, I recommend you try out the trails in Mallorca. A good 3 day hike would be Valdemossa to Deia to Soller to Lluc. For a really offbeat hotel experience try out the monastery at Lluc.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Yeah I'll think about it. I kept seeing the trailheads the past two days while driving around the mountains, looks pretty sweet.

[@ieasyfull]

29 years living here and you only show one street... How expensive is Paseo Maritimo, not Mallorca...

[@farhangani2534]

This made me very nostalgic, my first real trip and this was 2015, did not expect you to be near cala mayor beach cz that’s where we stayed so that was really nice to watch :)

[@d.m.messick]

Indeed...I need to visit the Balearic Islands. I’ve been all around Espana from A Coruna to Madrid to Valencia....Barcelona to Granada. But somehow missed these islands 🌴. Keep up the adventures!

[@marybellehenriquez6389]

I was in Mallorca like 2 months ago! I stayed in Santa Ponsa, very beautiful, you should go check it out!

[@piketroy4576]

Interesting, I lived in ABQ 10 years & I was in Palma De Mallorca, for 4 days, many years ago. Loved it there. Well, both places.

[@Sophia1a1]

That pool alone is amazing

[@unklemunky8992]

Nice scene in that little dorm eh? Reminded me of 2AC on Indian Railways😂 The supermercado was a bit overpriced but that's the area. When you get out of Palma, as with anywhere in the world, the small town square markets will see you right for amazing bread, good oil, olives, cheese & fresh fruit-it'll be pretty cheap to feed yourself as opposed to restaurants etc. Man, I love the grub in that part of the world!

[@stevecook706]

You must visit Palma, it's very nice! I've been a few times. You should also get down to Malta, its amazing with it's mix of English and Italian feel! I am there again in September.

[@Xergecuz]

That guy with the guitar was really good.

[@evehosgood]

Alcudia is lovely ☺ Been many times, it will be packed with tourists this time of year though. I'm looking forward to seeing the island of Menorca

[@voxley19]

Great video Gabriel. I assume you know tha the Balearic Islands are a very popular holiday destination for British and German tourists- that's why accommodation is so expensive as you've gone there in high season. It will probably get even more expensive in late July and August as you've seen with the motorcycle rentals. This is also why there are so many restaurants- I suspect that the reason the food prices are so reasonable is that there is stiff competition. Hope you get some good hiking on the Balearics.

[@SisterSherryDoingStuff]

totally agree regarding the hideous modern art next to a huge historical fort. Palma appears to be a gorgeous city!

[@GastonMarotta]

Nice Gabriel , welcome to Mallorca , if you want to know some good places Just let me know, enjoy It 👍

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Thanks. I found tons of amazing spots exploring around with a car the past couple days. Videos coming soon.

It’s been a while since I’ve commented. Still digging the videos.

Avellanas are hazle nuts. Almonds are almendras, I believe. Camino is indeed interesting. It is a pilgrim route starting from Italy, France or Portugal up to the Portugese border of Spain. Most people walk it.

[@JoJo-Mo-63]

That was an excellent video Gabriel! Saludos from San Diego, California.

[@MrMG76]

Will be there in 2 weeks looking forward to it....

[@mapsandlegends3607]

Fascinating. I've watched pretty much all of your videos and this is the first place you've gone to that I haven't heard of! Is this your third time to Spain now? It's got to be getting up there with your most-visited countries.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Yes, third time. I've been to India, Greece and Thailand more times.

[@BACKPACKTOPIA]

The El Arenal and the Cala Ratyada areas are two of the most notorious party beach areas in Europe. I know it's not your scene at all but if you are in the area you might want to check it out just out of curiousity. And these areas are also good for a nice variety of cheap food.

[@EvanTateMusic]

Mallorca is a fascinating place. I've been there 4 times over the past few years, admittedly spending more time in Can Picafort (Alcudia Bay), and once in Platja de Palma (Palma Beach) / Arenal. Palma is not really named after Palm trees because those tree are actually not native to Mallorca. They are imported. Mallorca has been a place for tourism since ancient times.

[@bobjackson4720]

I went there in the late sixties. At that time the English tourist was king. Fish and Chips, roast beef & champagne cocktails were everywhere. Used to be dirt cheap. Stayed in Arenal. The off season long weekend break total cost 18 pounds (including flights). At the time the streets were full of an overwhelming smell of olive oil.

[@shi186]

Very helpful video! I don't know how it showed up in my feed as I was not subscribed to the channel (I am now) but I'm glad it did because I'm going to Mallorca next month and I will definitely visit Palma! Thanks a lot for the advise, this is a great channel!

[@dreammfyre]

Heh, this was my first family vacation, back in -95. I remember three things: The arcade games, the amazing paella we had one night, and a quote in botched English from my dad that me and my brother still find hilarious. PS Tapas is probably the last thing to get on a budget.

Hola!!! Great travel Vlogs Gabe!!! So practical and " everyday" travel experiences.

Safe travels amigo :)

Prices are about 2-3x more than where I used to live in rural Andalusia! Mallorca is really beautiful though, and islands always cost more.

[@judgejurylw1026]

Some great shots, this is a little nostalgic for me, I was in Palma back in 1976, I spent 2 weeks there with the US Navy,out of all the places I been too, Palma was the best, I even met a girl there on my first day, we hung out the whole two weeks, she was a dream girl , from Palma, very beautiful and full of life, it broke my heart to leave her, we wrote back and forth for a while but the time and distance at that time was just to great, I always regretted not going back for her, i guess it was not meant in this life, but if I had a time machine, I would return to that time and place and look her up.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Loved it! You been to Seville? Here right now and it is awesome. Kind of like a nicer Mexico City with less people

Hi Gabriel, when your eating out you must try the octopus and Pork or ham maybe the best tasting in the world. Eating is definitely an experience in Spain, enjoy to your hearts content.

You are a warrior...I rarely travel in high season...too busy and too expensive. In october they will be giving away hotel rooms (sarcasm). Safe travels amigo!

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Yeah that's the other reason I decided to wait on walking the Cami de Cavalls on Menorca. I think it would be a lot more enjoyable, especially at the beaches, with less people there. Plus cooler temps. I look forward to doing it at the right time. Hola from Barcelona!

[@aidensfunadventures4358]

Our cruise arrives here in the morning. I will post vids.

[@rurre]

In addition that you only walked along 3 streets and straight ahead, you didn´t explore Palma. You can not say how expensive it is only going to the touristic places and might explored the "workers places" as Es Forti or Son Forteza. And as well, 26:07 you say that´s the king and queen residence in Majorca. Right, but in 14 century, mate. Olé tus cojones.

[@chall2258]

Thanks for the vlog. I really enjoyed it seeing an authentic vlog. I was thinking of visiting here, but it looks too dumpy for me. I’m going to head back to the south of France. It’s more my style.

All my Norwegian friends take their families to Mallorca for the summer. They rent very nice houses. I haven’t been to Spain yet, myself. Oh, the Irish coffee costs more because it has whiskey and cream. So, that was still a good price.

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

Quite a lot of Argentine staff in Mallorca. For an interesting story look at the holiday resort close to Buenos Aires (capital of Argentina) which was affected by flooding. A whole town ruined. Interesting story. Was decades ago so before the time of these young people but an intriguing tale for sure.

You can get great rates on Airbnb if you book for 1 week and get the weekly discount (most, not all offer this).

[@ojosazules8828]

28:00 Ha, in some Spanish cities you can get a tapas like that for free just for buying a Caña😉...also, you really don't have to tip in Spain, most Spanish don't...it rarely goes to the waiting staff and is not expected by them, only tourists tip who are used to US culture etc..so save yourself 10% per meal 😉

[@TheMikygaga]

That's not completely true. It depends of the spanish person that you ask! I always tip!

[@samdefore2692]

Tipping culture is ridiculous in Canada and the US, you are expected to tip for every service, min15% on meals even if the food was crappy or the service. When I was in Australia they don't tip, I don't remember if I tipped when I visted England. In Europe, I guess it depends where most don't tip but many restaurants charge a gratitude if you eat there, ang right if you tip (with a credit card especially) it just goes to the place and not the staff.
