Description:

Uncover the ancient history of Menorca with a look at the Talaiotic civilization that once inhabited this land. With an expert local guide at your side, walk to various megaliths that dot the landscape and admire the charming natural settings they sit in.

The Balearic Islands often get little attention for their ancient history, so this tour offers you insight into an aspect of Menorca that you might have otherwise missed. Meet your local guide, who is only too glad to share their knowledge and understanding of magnificent monuments that have stood since the Iron Age.

Just outside Mahon is the site of Trepuco, city ruins that were found and excavated less than a century ago. See the impressive standing stone tables and hear how they were built for reasons of religious worship. You can see more stone structures, known as talaiots, as you walk through the landscape, as well as the iconic T-shaped edifice, or Taula, at Binisafuller.

Complete your tour in the hidden creek of Biniparratx, a stunning location with calm waters and rolling hillside terrain sheltered from the sea.
