What to expect

Your inner cowboy or cowgirl will love Menorca's Camí de Cavalls. This network of trails dating back hundreds of years encircles the island along the coast. Even if you're not an old hand with the horses, this in an experience that'll get your pulse racing. Many of the tracks are the only way of accessing some of Menorca's most beautiful spots. Lynn, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘A map of Menorca dating back to 1780 is the earliest to show the Camí de Cavalls, but it is likely to be even older. It was originally installed to help defend the island from invaders.'

After being matched with a horse, you'll be guided on an easy, slow-paced ride through woodlands. There are almost 200km of track in total, and we'll follow a scenic section leading to a secluded beach. Lynn says ‘During the 1980s and 90s, parts of the Camí de Cavalls – which means the ‘Way of the Horses' – were in danger of being destroyed, threatening public access. But at the turn of the century, a new law was passed ensuring the trail would be protected as part of Menorca's cultural heritage.'

Halfway around your route, you'll take a break and enjoy some locally sourced refreshments while the horses have a rest. There's also time to enjoy a paddle at the beach. As well as being a wonderful way of discovering Menorca's hidden countryside, riding the Camí is a journey through the island's history. No horse-riding experience is needed and children are welcome, too, if you fancy a family outing.

Mahon Harbour Boat Tour with Mahon Market and Gin Distillery

What better way to spend a few hours than discovering and savouring the delights of Mahon, Menorca's history-steeped capital? On this morning tour, you'll enjoy a harbour boat trip, have free time to explore the old town on market day and visit a historic distillery. Nicola, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘If you scratch beneath the surface, you'll find the British influence in many older buildings such as sash windows, panelled doors, lunettes and more. A uniquely Menorquin touch is the ruby-red paint on these houses.'First up is a glass-bottom boat trip in Mahon harbour – the second largest in the world. Glide between fortified islets and admire the opulent villas lining the waterfront on either side. Some date from the 18th century, when Menorca was a British colony. Next, it's on to the old Xoriguer gin distillery. Menorca's favourite tipple has been made here, using the same recipe, since 1736 – yet another symbol of the island's British heritage.There's also free time to wander around Mahon under your own steam, admiring its Georgian town houses, baroque churches, palm-lined squares and narrow, cobbled streets. Head to the centrally located Plaza del Carme, where there's a market of vendors hawking everything from cured meats to fresh fruit under the cloisters of a 17th-century convent. The local square-shaped cheese is highly regarded throughout Spain.

At five kilometres long, it's one of the world's largest natural harbours. It's fringed by historic buildings, fortifications and dotted with islands. Back on dry land, there's a tour of Mahon town followed by some free time. Nicola adds "reminders of the century-long British rule are still visible to this day – you can see sash and bow windows, door latches and handles just as you would in the UK." Then, discover the sugar-cube village of Binibeca and its whitewashed homes.Just a little further east along the coast, you'll find the Cova d'en Xoroi, a bar uniquely set within a cave on a cliff face.
