Program details
Enjoy a visit to two of Mallorca's most iconic tourist attractions, which, for thousands of years were one of Mother Nature’s best kept secrets - until in 1905 Pedro Caldentey discovered the grotto. Nowadays, not only can you visit the impressive caves, but also admire the magnificent light and sound shows inside.
The tour starts at the Hams Caves by descending down into the Round Cave, where you will soon discover a huge botanical garden with native fauna. In the Blue Cave, you will be shown a fascinating documentary that introduces you to the history of Mallorca, its first inhabitants, the formation of the caves and its extraordinary discoveries. You can admire the "Pillars of Samson", the "Fra Mauro Plains" and "Hell's Pit" illuminated beautifully. You can also take a seat in the GENESIS Auditorium and enjoy 'The History of Life' - a Time Lapse audiovisual guide, from the Big Bang to the present day, projected onto the ancient rock of the cave itself.
Next, move on to the Classic Cave, which is comprised of 12 galleries. Afterwards be in awe at the spectacular Underground Lake that’s found in the Sea of Venice and offers delightful musical entertainment.
