Description:

Visit a series of archaeological sites on a tour for anyone who wants to learn about Menorca's long history. Join a local guide who is eager to share their knowledge of the island, see relics from its first inhabitants, and explore how the civilizations of old helped shape the places you see today.

The western half of Menorca contains several important excavation sites corresponding to the region's earliest societies. At the Naveta d'Es Tudons, the island's best-preserved funerary monuments, receive an insight into how inhabitants from the ancient Talaiotic culture cared for their dead.

Next, travel to the prehistoric village of Torrellafuda. The site now lies in ruin, nestled in a wild olive grove, but still contains many clues about the people who built it. Admire the magnificent craftsmanship of the manmade caves at Cala Morell, another example of a burial ground, before visiting the walled settlement of Son Catler where large megaliths still stand after centuries of deterioration.

Your guide is with you every step of the way to provide context at each stop, making sure you get the most from your tour.
