Are there any discounted bus passes for tourists traveling around Mallorca?

If you plan to explore beyond Palma’s old town, getting a TIB bus pass can be an excellent way to save on travel across the island. The public bus network connects key towns like Soller, Alcudia, and Manacor, even reaching some popular beaches such as Cala Mondrago and Es Trenc. A multi-day or weekly TIB card lets you hop on and off without fuss, which is especially handy if you want to explore the Tramuntana mountains or coastal spots along the Ma-13 and Ma-19 roads.

While the Palma metro is limited in reach, it complements these buses well for getting around the capital’s outskirts and connecting to the main bus stations. Buying passes at stations or authorized vendors is straightforward, and you’ll often find different durations available to suit short visits or longer stays. Though the Soller railway is separate, taking the train from Palma to Soller is a scenic must and tickets can be purchased individually.

Keep in mind that these passes don’t usually include discounts at attractions or restaurants, but the convenience and cost savings on transport more than make up for it. Planning around local festivals, like Nit de Foc in Palma or Festa de l'Ametler in the countryside, is simpler when you’re not scrambling for tickets each day. Check the official TIB bus website before you travel to confirm current pass options and coverage.
