Transport
Very enjoyable tour. It was perfect.
Fishing villages, country estates, local products and world-class views. The rural heart of Menorca is a joy to explore. This tour ticks all the boxes, with visits to Fornells, Binissues and more. Along the way, you'll get to sample some of the island's renowned cheeses. Nicola, one of our expert local guides, says, "Binissues is one of my favourite spots. You step back in time here, see cheesemaking, admire the old manor house with original furniture and enjoy the best views of the Menorcan countryside."
Your rural Menorca adventure kicks off with a trip to the stately manor of Binissues. See how the island's trademark mahonés cheese is made – and taste it for yourself – then wander the manicured gardens or say hello to the host of farm animals. Inside, there's a large collection of insects, which the kids will love. From here, you'll head to the postcard-worthy north coast village of Fornells, stopping by Playas Fornells along the way.
Wander through Fornells' maze of whitewashed alleys that meander down to the harbour. Lined with palm trees and traditional llaüt fishing boats, it's a picture of perfection. At some point during the tour, you'll visit a sandal factory to see how Menorcan avarca sandals are made from scratch, too. Finally, you'll have the best seats in the house at Son Martorellet, a renowned horse stable. Watch as horses from the island's endemic Menorquin breed are trained by local trainers and riders.
