Answer
What’s the best way to get around Mallorca for a first-time visitor?
Renting a car offers flexibility to explore rural towns and the Tramuntana mountains, but trains and buses cover major towns like Palma and Alcúdia well. Plan a rough itinerary to balance driving time with rest days, and consider seasonal schedules. Public transport can be slower but is a good way to reduce costs.
