Hello, my family and I are going on a Western Mediterranean Cruise in March. It is myself, my wife, and our two 15 year old daughters. We've been to Europe before and have traveled on our own but this is our first Med Cruise. One of the stops in Palma de Mallorca, and we'll be there from 9am to 5pm. I've been looking at excursions that the ship is offering but none of them are very interesting. Our family enjoys museums, shopping for art, site seeing, and good food. I've also looked up some of the things that there is to do in this port but if anyone can offer any other good ideas or things that they've discovered at these locations, that would be great. Also, the ship will be departing and returning from Barcelona, which we have been to before but the last 2 times we've been there we used an AirBNB. This time we are looking into hotels for 2 nights. If anyone can recommend a good hotel, doesn't have to be fancy, but somewhere safe for families and relatively close to the port, that would also be a great help. Our budget for the hotel per night is 325 dollars.
Thank you and Happy New Year.
