Today we are in Mallorca and I am so excited because I heard they have great beaches. That being said, we are about an hour from the beaches and there are sights to see right in Palma.
We decide to take a hop on/off bus. These are open air double decker buses that give you a tour of the city and the sights. We pay for our ticket and get head phones and a map. The buses allow for you to ride from sight to sight getting off at whatever sight interests you and then hopping on another bus when you are done exploring that sight. We decide to explore a castle on a hill over looking the city as well as the cathedral. The views from the castle are beautiful. The cathedral as well is a sight to see. You can see the different eras of architecture. I am bummed that we didn't make it to the castle where the King and Queen of Spain still vacation. But short on time and our stomachs growling, we decide to stop for lunch. I am so excited to be in Spain. It feels like home. I order my favorite food, the Spanish Tortilla. It is overpriced and not that great but still nice to be somewhere familiar.
Travel tip: Hop on/off buses are great ways to see the city when you are short on time
Kelly and Rhenee were excellent to work with on planning our trip. The logistics all worked smoothly and everyone was friendly and on time. Our accommodations were very good, particularly the incredible Patagonia Camp in Torres del Paine! Our guides on every excursion were outstanding and made the hikes memorable! Overall we had a wonderful trip with incredible memories!

Adventure Life is definitely a first-class safari tour company, and our representative was Franny Friesz. First of all, she responded immediately after we contacted Adventure Life. We told Franny that we had never been on a safari, and she was more than eager to offer a mountain of information about the trip. She informed us fully about all the ups, downs, and all arounds! She even prepared a number of packages for us to review -- even after we made changes to the areas we wanted to explore. Friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable -- these words describe Franny, and what a wonderful trip she prepared! We couldn't have asked for better service than Franny of Adventure Life. We HIGHLY recommend her and her outstanding company! Bon Voyage!

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.
