Newly Launched: ULTION PRIVÉ by Sandgrouse Travel & Expeditions. Scotland’s Ultimate Sporting Journeys
Easy to reach and diverse in what it offers, we can think of few better Mediterranean destinations to visit. Mallorca is the largest of the Balearic Islands and known as the jewel of the Mediterranean Sea. 'The King's Island' is favorite by everyone from royalty, celebrities and millionaires right down to the common man. The island now attracts as many as 10 million tourists a year, so it is no wonder the name alone has become synonymous with 'holidays'.
Mallorca offers the traveller rich rewards and is much more than the old cliché of ‘Sun, Sea and Sand’. Beautiful places such as Deià, Sa Calobra, Valldemossa, Sóller and even Cap de Formentor spring to mind. Mallorca (or Majorca) it could be said, is blessed, inundated with charm and beauty; take your time here and slowly the island reveals herself to you. It is a special place where traditions meet modernity, tranquillity blends effortlessly with excitement, and safety and privacy can be found cohabiting alongside one another. Look a little further still and you will quickly uncover an island exuding luxury with a talented flair.
Beyond the luxury to be savoured throughout the island, many visit Mallorca looking to enjoy some of the predictable winter sun whilst combining this with training on their bicycles. For the road cyclist, the island offers up unrivaled open roads, sweeping switchbacks and snarling mountain climbs. As a winter training destination the island cannot be beaten anywhere in Europe which is why many of the UCI professional cycling teams also train here (watch out for them on the roads!).

"Sandgrouse Travel carefully planned the trip of a lifetime, an unforgettable experience to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. They meticulously planned all aspects of the trip from our first night stay in a fantastic lodge, the 8 day expedition and then finally a one night stay in one of Tanzania’s top Lodges which was much needed luxury after the long climb. I was particularly impressed with the guides and porters that Jonny at Sandgrouse had arranged to help us. We successfully summited at 6am on the 7th day to watch an amazing sunrise which had been the plan from the start, and was testament to Jonny’s careful planning and organisation of the trip.
Dealing with Sandgrouse Travel has been an enjoyable experience, not only are they extremely professional but also very personal and enthusiastic. Coupled with their valuable first hand experience ensured we had the time of our lives. I have since travelled again with Sandgrouse Travel to Norway’s Hordaland Mountains and they are now currently planning my next trip for early 2016.
I would highly recommend anyone looking for a personalised and authentic experience to speak to the Sandgrouse Travel team."
