Puerto Soller to Puerto Pollensa
Monday to Saturday only
09.00 15.00
Journey time: 2 hours. Fare: 6.50€ single, 12.75€ return.* Buses are as those to Formentor above, and from Puerto Pollensa go via Cala San Vicente before heading on past the Roman Bridge side of Pollensa, up the mountains to Lluc and its monastery (journey time: 50 mins, single fare 2.95€) and down the other side to Soller town and its port. This service starts from Can Picafort so there will be some passengers on board before it reaches Puerto Pollensa, but if no one is wanting to alight at Cala San Vicente, the driver liaises with the La Calobra service (see below) and the detour here may be avoided. Traffic and timetable permitting, the bus pauses at one of the scenic spots en route to allow the impressive views to be admired and photographs to be taken through the windows
SCENIC ROUTE
You can travel between Soller town and Puerto Soller by tram (there is a
service each way every half hour) and/or make the hour-long trip to Palma
from Soller on the electric railway with its quaint rolling stock. The train
station is in the Plata Espana in Palma.
At
Puerto Soller the return pick-up up is at the marina where passengers are
dropped off. In Soller town, the return pick-up is normally on the main road
at the outskirts of the town centre but it is advisable to check with the
driver as the exact bus stop location can be affected by road works and
diversions.
Puerto Pollensa to La Calobra -
Linea 5
Monday to Saturday only
10.00
La Calobra to Puerto Pollensa
Monday to Saturday only
15.00
Journey
time: 2 hours 45 minutes, but this includes a one hour stop in Lluc. Fare:
4.95€ single, 9.55€ return.* Vehicles are as above though often
mini-buses are used - the better to negotiate winding mountain roads. The
bus, which has started its journey in Can Picafort, goes via Cala San
Vicente before taking the mountain road from Pollensa. If you only want to
go as far as Lluc (journey time: 50 mins, fare 2.95€*) the bus stops there
on its return leg at 16.00 - but be at the stop in good time since it
doesn't hang about on the way back. Also be advised that Lluc is high up in
the mountains and so will be cooler than Puerto Pollensa. At La Calobra the
bus connects with boats to Soller.
