Answer

Do I need to rent a car in Mallorca or is public transport enough?

Mallorca has a decent public transport network, including buses and some rail links. For exploring rural villages or the Tramuntana mountains, a car offers more flexibility. If you’re mainly staying in Palma or larger resort towns, public transport can be enough with some planning.
