syr101 Posted October 27, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Trying to decide on a cruise. One cruise included Ajaccio and the other is Palma de Mallorca. Which cruise would you choose and why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennybear Posted October 29, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 29, 2021 We enjoyed both, what time of year and is everything else the same? a few photos of Ajaccio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennybear Posted October 30, 2021 #4 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Sounds Iike a tossup, but I’d lean to Palma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted October 30, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I haven't been to Ajaccio itself [cruise was scheduled there in 2019 but diverted to Toulon], but I was recently on a cruise that spent two days in Corsica [Bonifacio, and Calvi / L'Ile Rousse] – and I have been to Palma twice. If you've never been to either of your options, I would pick Palma as there is much more to do. You can spend a day in Palma itself [we did this the first time], or take the historic train to Soller, or rent a car and drive to Valldemossa, Deia and Soller [we did this the second time, see my blog here: jazzbeauxmediterraneancruise2019.wordpress.com On the other hand, more cruises stop at Palma than at Ajaccio – so you may have other opportunities for Palma in the future...

Rare mskaufman Posted October 31, 2021 #7 Share Posted October 31, 2021 From Palma we took the wooden train to the Port of Soler. Southern Europe (shutterfly.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Harters Posted November 20, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Palma without question. Lovely, very walkable city. The train to Soller is a great trip across the mountain. And, once in the town, you can change to the tram (they use old San Francisco ones) to get to the Port, which is a tourist resort. By the by, my brother in law originates from the town, so I may be biased here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
