3 days in Mallorca
 
My boyfriend and I are spending 3 days in Palma de Mallorca. We wanted to rent a mopehead/scooter or a car for one day to explore the island. Do you recommend a car to do this or can it (safely) be done with a mopehead? Thanks!

I would rent a car and NOT a moped.

what makes you say that?

Hey Sarah. I wouldn't worry so much about safety, but distances are pretty far on Mallorca. Much bigger than it looks. I'd go with the car too.

I've watched the way they drive over there and there is no way I would get on a moped and drive in that chaos. Maybe once you get out of the congested areas it wouldn't be so bad.
