The meals we provide during the trip are varied and healthy, based on the Mediterranean diet and prepared by our guides with a homemade touch. We also include traditional products made in Menorca.

A typical selection includes:

• Breakfast: fruit, bread, cold cuts, coffee, tea, milk, honey, jam and muesli.

This adventure is based on a spirit of cooperation and teamwork, where we particularly value good humour, a positive atmosphere and consideration for fellow participants.
