How Expensive is Mallorca? Spanish Island in the Mediterranean
This channel has brought me a lot of joy through the years🤙
Shame he didn't show the amazing and so beautiful Beaches, why everyone wants to Mallorca!

As it has me
First travel UA-cam channel I subscribed to
Great, thanks for subbing.
Hey Gab
Good to see you back on your travels
Stay safe
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!
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.
Beautiful Gabriel! Thank you! Stay safe ❤😊 can't wait to see more of Spain!
Great video again brother! Peace from UK ✌🏻
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.
Great video Gabe again. Love that you captured the fellow with the accordion playing my favorite song “la vie en rose”
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! ✌️🤙
Great video man
Dan
Great video !!!
Beautiful video. Wonderful creative work!
Thanks for posting look forward to these
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🇨🇦
Went there while in the Marine Corps deployed with the 24th MEU and I had a blast in Palma❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your service and OOH RAH Semper Fi! (Proud daughter and sister of Marines!)
Awesome video keep on traveling!
👍 Great video as always!
Looks A amazing place to visit Gabe, happy travels, take it easy bro!
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Another great adventure ..right on !!!
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 :)
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!
Good video, I enjoyed seeing all sides of the city
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...
great video,well explained the city
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.
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!
That was an excellent video Gabriel! Saludos from San Diego, California.
Hola!!! Great travel Vlogs Gabe!!! So practical and " everyday" travel experiences. Unlike ...some of other vloggges on here with their " high-end" "business class travel".... that 99% of us can't afford!! Great to see you still have that shirt ( Shiva?) you picked up in India... Safe travels amigo :)
Hello... Gabriel... Amazing video.. Grazie mille... 👍👍👍... Bella Spain... Super job of you... Excellent report 👌👌👌👌Bravissimo Gabriel... 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Nice video!
Will be there in 2 weeks looking forward to it....
The old architecture was gorgeous!
It’s been a while since I’ve commented. Still digging the videos.
Cool man, glad to hear it James, glad you're still on board with the neverending adventure.
Well done Gabriel for all your good work, I am a new U.K subscriber and am working through all your content, which is a joy!
Awesome, glad you're enjoying the vids.
Very good video Gabriel.
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
That pool alone is amazing
Thanks for another great video. I'm sure you will love the lake district in northern Italy if you get a chance someday!
Great video
There is a great retro train to Soller through the mountains up north. Enjoy!
👍👍👍
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!
totally agree regarding the hideous modern art next to a huge historical fort. Palma appears to be a gorgeous city!
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
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.
I'll be in Menorca from the 19th, hope to see you there 😉
I might be there still, feel free to say hello.
I was in Mallorca like 2 months ago! I stayed in Santa Ponsa, very beautiful, you should go check it out!
My great-grandfather is from their very nice to see thank you
Amazing spain vlog 😊❤️
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.
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.
Yes, third time. I've been to India, Greece and Thailand more times.
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.
Yeah, it is usually cheap except Fromista
That guy with the guitar was really good.
Great video and when we go to the islands we usuall find them quite exspensive apart from beer and wine.
FYI Irish Coffee contains whiskey.
And a single Tayto crisp on top.
@abrahamisms flayed rectum try it :)

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.
Nice Gabriel , welcome to Mallorca , if you want to know some good places Just let me know, enjoy It 👍
Thanks. I found tons of amazing spots exploring around with a car the past couple days. Videos coming soon.
29 years living here and you only show one street... How expensive is Paseo Maritimo, not Mallorca...
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.
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.
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!
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!
i love majorca ive been a few times palma is great. great cathedral there.if you get a chance gabriel visit pollenca
t k we stay in pollenca every time we go! such a beautiful town x
You are right that the Irish coffee is gooood - it's full of whiskey lol! It's not worth 7 euros though, when I was in Mallorca the other week they were around 5 euros. 2 euros for a beer is really good though, especially for a city.
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!
I remember seeing a campground on the way to Cala Mitjana on Menorca.
Excellent, good to know, I'll look into it.
Hi Gabe, great video.
We have just arrived in Palma getting lost on the local buses and staying in Santa Ponsa. Be nice to bump into you for a refreshing Estrella.
Dorset Taco went ponsa last year amazing beach but the rest is bit of a shit hole as we were by all the Irish bars etc
@@aestheticsbyjasmine940 agree with you there. We're staying further up the coast. Much more civilized.
Enjoy ❤️
Loved it! You been to Seville? Here right now and it is awesome. Kind of like a nicer Mexico City with less people
Yes, I was there three years ago, great city. Enjoy.
I love Mallorca!!! When are you coming to Bali??? ahahha
27:32 I'd like a beer like that, especially after walking an afternoon in the Spanish heat!
Love this island it’s a very popular holiday hotspot from us in the UK
Off to Mallorca tomorrow we go every year😍😍😍😍😍 we stay in muro
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.
Yeah I'll think about it. I kept seeing the trailheads the past two days while driving around the mountains, looks pretty sweet.
beautiful!
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.
The recidence for
the king of Spain is Marivent, just nearby Cala Mayor
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.
i like Argentines, they are very bright people regardless of the economic situation back home. Viva Argentina~!!
What a great place to be , my cousin Rose Helena lives there. Too bad its so expensive.
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.
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!
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.
Go to Cala des Moro! Was just there, it’s awesome!
Hello Gabe, hope you got to visit Fornalutx and Soller in the north. I've travelled a lot and rate Fornalutx as one of the most beautiful places in the world.
That was a great video. Interesting and enjoyable all the way. I could watch for hours. Hey man, what camera did you use to record this vide?
Great, glad you enjoyed. I film with a Gopro. The cameras I use are always listed below each video.
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.
Depende de la zona. Él ha grabado en zona turística, ahí puedes pagar fácilmente 2€ por una lata de cocacola o más cuando en el súper no te gastas más de 30c
I stayed near Bar Coto Dos (21.27) at Hostal Pons.. Amazing place and very good price.. Check it out if you want to stay in Palma central..
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.
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.
14;41, a glimt of the old swedish bar; Nickes bar, now closed, but in the 70-80; s a international meetingpoint for celebrities from all over the world...
Sweet Argentinian girl at the end! Good job Gabriel!
panos approved
In Europe, ther are quite some coffee variations with piritual beverages inside. Italian coffee is with amaretto, Irish put whiskey, some others put Cointreau.
Our cruise arrives here in the morning. I will post vids.
I was there for first time in 1971 in my militaring service,and then in 2003 and in 2019.
Nice
If you're still in Palma pay the Cathedral and Castle a visit. Fantastic architecture and history
Go back to Iceland summer should be awesome there 22 hours daylight
WOW! accomodation and taxi are expensive! Come back to Portugal.
Dude I hope you'll come to Poland (specifically to Poznan) while you're in Europe :) Enjoy Mallorca till then!
What are you doing in Poland Sing? Working?
I lived here went to boarding school in Palma
Go go Ibiza loads of private beaches. I loved there for 8 years.
