Talati de Dalt & Naveta des Tudons: Minorca's Bronze Age Mysteries

Walk among megalithic taulas and talayots that predate Rome by 3,000 years on a private guided tour of Minorca's most iconic prehistoric monuments — a UNESCO World Heritage landscape unlike anywhere in Europe.

What to expect

Your expert guide collects you from the port in a private vehicle and drives you first to Talati de Dalt, where a giant taula (T-shaped megalith) stands eerily intact amid wild olive trees. Next, Naveta des Tudons — a Bronze Age collective tomb shaped like an upturned boat — delivers a visceral sense of antiquity that few travellers ever experience. Your guide contextualises Minorca's Talayotic Culture, recently inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The unhurried private format means you linger as long as you wish.
