Ibiza - Marco Polo Pocket Travel Guide (with pull out map)

Sunflower Books Ibiza and Formentera: 3 Car Tours, 11 Cycle Tours, 27 Walks

Until the sixties, Ibiza belonged to the Ibizans, and only a few artists, poets and writers lived in this paradise. Then the flower-children arrived, the hippies and drop-outs. In the last decades however, mass tourism has taken over and unfortunately destroyed much of the charm of Ibiza and Formentera. But not everything on the islands has been spoiled, and a visit to the pine islands’ (the ‘Pityussae’, as the Greeks called them) is still worthwhile today. There’s an unending wealth of hidden beauty spots to be discovered, and this book helps you to find the best of Ibiza and Formentera by car, bicycle, or on foot. Routes have been recently checked for this new Fifth edition – and there are two bonuses: firstly, there are now GPS tracks for all the walks and cycle tours; secondly, for the adventurous, the author has described a round-the-island hike for which detailed stages and GPS tracks are available on this website (see the ‘GPS tracks’ tab). Area covered: The book covers all of both islands. The best months for walking on Ibiza and Formentera are March to June and September/October.

Sunflower Books Mallorca: Car Tours and Walks

This was the first walking guide for Mallorca, the guide that won Sunflower the SundayTimes ‘Oscar’ for best travel guide — and eventually made the island one of the most popular walking areas in Europe. The author has lived on Mallorca for over 30 years and knows the island intimately. This completely revised 7th edition includes newly-drawn maps incorporating the recently inaugurated GR221 (‘Drystone Route’) — a long-distance walk which is covered almost in its entirety by the 60 long and short day walks in the book. There are also 10 car tours with accompanying fold-out touring map, as well as plans of Palma and Soller, bus, train and boat timetables and panels of information on Mallorcan customs and features of the landscape. A free online update service informs users of any route-change information. Area covered: The whole island is covered for those touring Mallorca by car, but for walking in Mallorca, emphasis has naturally been placed on the northern sierras. The best months for walking in Mallorca are May, June and October, but you can hike on the island all year round, except for July-early September, when it is far too hot.

Sunflower Books Menorca: Car Tours and Walks

Menorca is a peaceful island, much more low-key than its neighbouring Balearic Islands. Walking in Menorca takes you to some beautiful scenery, both inland and along the truly idyllic coastline with its splendid beaches. Whether you’re walking or touring Menorca by car, you will marvel at the amazing remnants of Menorca’s past scattered all around the island — the densest concentration of prehistoric monuments in Europe. This fully updated fifth edition will delight Menorca’s many enthusiasts. The large-scale topo maps and the fold-out touring map now include the Camí de Cavalls, a round-the-island coastal walk. Area covered: the whole of Menorca The best months for walking in Menorca are April, May, June, September and October (when it will still be warm enough for most people), but take something showerproof for the occasional wet day — Menorca is the wettest of the Balearic islands, though July and August can normally be relied upon for lots of sun and heat (so are not ideal for walking!).
