Experience the Beauty of Mallorca on a Hardtail MTB
If you’re looking to combine outdoor activity with the stunning scenery of Mallorca, this rental MTB tour offers a practical and affordable way to explore. For just $20.86 per person, you get access to a modern SRAM Conor WRC 29 hardtail mountain bike and helmet for a full day of riding. Starting at 10 a.m. from Palma’s center, the tour promises roughly 8 hours of cycling fun, giving you plenty of time to soak in the landscapes.
What makes this experience appealing is its straightforward approach—no complicated logistics, just the bike, the route, and the open road. We love the simplicity of the setup, especially since it’s suitable for nearly any rider, with a max group size of 10, ensuring a more personal experience. The price point is also excellent considering you’re getting high-quality equipment and flexible timing.
However, a quick consideration is that food and drinks are not included, and there’s no hotel pickup or drop-off, so you’ll need to plan transportation to and from the meeting point. But if you’re comfortable navigating Palma on your own, this is a fantastic way to see the area at your own pace. This tour suits active travelers, cycling enthusiasts, or anyone eager to see Mallorca beyond the typical tourist spots—especially those who enjoy authentic, independent adventures.

A Detailed Look at Mallorca’s MTB Rental Experience
Renting a mountain bike in Mallorca opens the door to discovering the island from a new perspective. Unlike guided tours with fixed routes, this offering from GreenTours Palma gives you the freedom to craft your own adventure, whether that’s a quick ride through Palma’s streets or exploring remote trails. The SRAM Conor WRC 29 hardtail is a dependable, lightweight bike that handles well on both paved and unpaved paths, making it versatile for different terrains.
Starting from Centre of Palma, near public transportation, the meeting point at Travessa d’en Ballester, 8 is convenient. The staff’s reputation for excellent customer service and fair pricing—as one reviewer noted—sets a positive tone for the day. After a quick helmet fit, you’ll be ready to go, with the freedom to set your own pace.
What you can expect during your ride depends on your preferences, but the key advantage is the ability to explore Mallorca’s diverse scenery. The island’s landscapes vary from coastal paths to lush inland trails, and a full day of cycling means you can venture beyond the typical routes. Since food and drinks are not included, you might want to pack snacks or plan to stop at local cafes along the way.
While the tour does not specify a particular route, the flexibility is valuable. You could cycle along Mallorca’s coast for scenic ocean views or explore quiet village roads. The 8-hour duration offers ample time for relaxation and sightseeing, especially if you want to visit noteworthy spots or simply enjoy the countryside at your own pace.
Authentic Experience & Practicality
The experience really shines in its practicality—riders of most levels can participate, and the only requirement is a valid passport. The cost-effectiveness of this rental makes it accessible for many, especially since you’re provided with a quality bike and helmet for the entire day.
From reviews, we see that customers appreciate the generous offers and friendly service. For instance, one reviewer mentioned, “the guys gave us an offer which was more than generous,” and praised the excellent customer service. This suggests that, unlike some rental shops, this company values transparency and good rapport with travelers.
Potential Drawbacks & Recommendations
A possible downside is the lack of included transportation to your starting point. If you’re staying outside Palma or far from public transit, you’d need to arrange your own way there. Also, since food and drinks are not provided, you’ll want to bring your own supplies or plan to snack at local spots.
This experience is best suited for independent travelers comfortable with their own planning, those who enjoy a flexible day on two wheels, and anyone eager to experience Mallorca’s landscapes without the constraints of a guided group.
