Description:

Travel by jeep to explore Menorca's best archaeological sites. Rumble over dirt roads and farm tracks as you seek out ancient remains from the Talaiotic era, including the majestic caves of Cova des Coloms. With narration from an expert guide, you have all you need to explore the island's history.

Begin in the heart of the island and rove north, south, east, and west to explore the area's best examples of ancient archaeology. At Son Mercer de Baix, observe the rocky remains of a Bronze Age settlement, wander around the walls, and peer through dark doorways into small chambers.

On the eastern coast, you can find the vast Cova des Coloms, known as the island's second cathedral. With a yawning chasm that descends for 328 feet (100 m) and the ceiling reaching heights of 78 feet (24 m) in some places, the cave's cool atmosphere and echoing sounds offer a stark contrast to the outside environment you are used to.

For your last stop, visit the prehistoric settlement of Sant Agustí Vell, which offers one more opportunity for your guide to share their knowledge of Talaiotic culture with you before the tour ends.
