Sometimes, the most romantic thing to do is simply to walk hand in hand near the coastline or an ancient monument.
So, do keep that in your to-do list as well.
1) Hot Air Balloon Tour During Sunrise
Mallorca in general is a beautiful island.
Then again, it is a completely different beauty from high in the air during sunrise.
Every couple has to go on a hot air balloon tour during sunrise in Mallorca.
The sights and sounds are simply unmatched from the ground.
All of the beauty around you tingles your senses like no other.
It is such a wonderful experience to share with your loved one.
The best part is on a clear day, you can view the neighbouring islands as well.
A hot air balloon tour that too specifically at sunrise is highly recommended to experience the best of Mallorca.
It is both romantic and exciting. Not to mention something different.
2) Vintage Train and Boat Ride
This particular tour is one of the most popular ways to see the best of Mallorca’s natural landscape.
The day starts by going up to the Serra de Tramuntana Mountain range. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most beautiful parts of Mallorca.
The limestone peak towers at the mountain range are one of the most famous attractions of the island.
After exploring the mountain range, the road towards La Colabra and fishing villages down below are even more breathtaking.
The entire region is simply superb in terms of scenic beauty.
This is where you can catch the most romantic boat ride taking you through villages and coastline of Mallorca.
The icing on the cake is the vintage train ride that follows the picturesque boat ride.
The vintage wooden train at Soller is over 100 years old. It is incredibly charming and goes through a path that is full of incredible beauty.
The entire tour is extremely romantic that includes historic sites, gorgeous views, boat rides, tram rides and vintage train ride.
Once the day is over, you will be completely in love with Mallorca while reinforcing your love for your partner.

3) Evening Horseback Riding, Dinner and Dance
One of the best ways to spend an evening in Mallorca is to go horseback riding at the island’s north coast.
After the horseback ride, you can try authentic local barbeque dinner along with country dance at a ranch.
Needless to say, the whole experience is highly romantic and exciting as well.
You get to experience Mallorca’s beautiful countryside and all of its charm in this activity.
The horseback riding trail goes through a scenic path. It allows you to experience a part of Mallorca that most tourists miss out on.
The dinner and dancing along with local sangria is the perfect way to end the evening.
I just love this whole activity and it must be shared with someone you care about.
4) One-of-a-kind Romantic Game Walking Exploration Tour
Palma, the capital of Mallorca is quite an ancient city with a rich history.
The city’s architecture and connection to Mallorca’s times gone by is worth exploring.
The best way to explore Palma’s history and architecture is through a one-of-a-kind romantic game plus exploration tour.
This walking exploration tour is especially meant for couples.
As you walk around the romantic streets and locations of Palma, you get to solve puzzles and enter quests.
These puzzles or games lead you to learn more about each location and also learn about a romantic love story.
It is a fun walking tour throughout with romantic games, history lessons, new places to explore.
The game works through a mobile app that you must download before starting the quest.
This is definitely a fun way to not just have a romantic time but to explore Palma with your partner.
5) Private Excursion to Caves of Drach and Porto Cristo
The Caves of Drach are one of the most incredible natural wonders in Mallorca that cannot be missed.
It is one of the island’s most popular tourist attractions that will leave you in awe.
While there are many tours to Caves of Drach and Porto Cristo, a private excursion is best for couples.
With a private excursion, you get your own transportation, guide, romantic boat ride and entry to a classical music concert.
Caves of Drach has a spellbinding effect with beautifully lit underwater lights and unique rock formations.
To experience all of it along with your partner in a private boat is super romantic and exciting.
Do note that the private excursion also takes you to a famous pearl factory in Mallorca.
6) Sunset Sail Around Palma Bay
I don’t need to sell you on the beauty of Palma Bay. It is one of the most gorgeous coastlines in Europe.
However, the beauty of the bay is even more pronounced during sunset.
Imagine sailing in a 14-meter boat, sipping champagne and enjoying the stunning sunset with your loved one.
Sunset sail around Palma Bay is without doubt one of the most romantic things to do in Mallorca.
You get one of the best natural views of the Mediterranean, stunning sunset and great company of your partner.
Private sunset sails in Palma come with non-alcoholic beverages, champagne, light snacks and a 14-meter sailboat to yourself.
7) Private Sailing, Snorkeling, Water Sports and Exploration Excursion
One of the best ways to spend a day in Mallorca is in a private boat cruising the gorgeous coastline.
With your own private sailboat, crew and skipper, you can access the best Mallorca’s coast has to offer.
Spend the day exploring hidden coves, swim in the ocean, go snorkeling, indulge in water sports plus more.
Live the good life with your loved one on this private sailing tour. Swim with your partner in some of the most gorgeous locations in the ocean.
I just love this particular excursion as you can do so much while being in complete control.
Being a private sailboat, the best part is the quality time you can spend with your partner amidst gorgeous settings.
This is definitely a romantic as well as exciting experience in Mallorca.
8) Explore Island of Mallorca on a Trike
If you want to explore Mallorca in a unique and fun way, get on a trike.
For the uninitiated, a trike is a motorized tricycle that can fit one to three persons.
In this case, you and your partner can be on one trike while exploring the best of Mallorca.
The trike tour does have a head guide on their own trike that show you where to go.
You will be going through some of the most gorgeous attractions in Mallorca. This includes the romantic fire tower of Porto Cristo, Monte Sion monastery, Santuari De Sant Salvador etc.
You could hire a car and see the same places but doing so on a trike is so much more fun.
If you want excitement, romantic, something different and a wonderful memory, trike trip is for you.
Do note you need a valid driving license to participate on a trike tour in Mallorca.
