EMT bus line 1 runs every 12–15 minutes from the Estació Marítima 2 stop directly to Plaça d'Espanya for €3 per person (contactless card accepted on board). From there the Cathedral is a 10-minute walk through Plaça Major and Born. Cathedral entry is €9 and best booked online for skip-the-line; Bellver Castle is €4 (free Sundays) and reached via EMT bus 50 from the city centre. Walking is feasible the whole route but the Cathedral-to-Bellver leg is a 40-minute uphill slog so take the bus.

EMT bus 1 (€3, every 15 min) connects the cruise terminal to Plaça d'Espanya in 15 minutes; the Tren de Sóller station is a 5-minute walk from there. The combined train + tram online ticket is €35 return (€40 in-person) and covers both legs of the loop. Trains run sparsely — typically 5 daily departures in summer — so check the timetable before you commit and aim for the 10:10 outbound to leave a comfortable return window. The closure 24 Nov 2025 – 1 Feb 2026 affects winter calls only.
