Overview

Through the tour in Can Det you will see a clear example of the declaration of the Serra de Tramuntana as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The so-called Outstanding Universal Value coincides with the activity of Can Det both in the way of cultivating the ancient olive trees on the terraces of the mountains of the valley of Sóller and in the irrigation systems of its orange plantations. It is a sample of the human adaptation to the territory for centuries forming the current cultural landscape. Tasting the oil from olive trees more than 1000 years old is a unique experience.

Meeting points

You can come walking from the center of Sóller. By the streets Carrer de Sant Jaume and Pere A Serra Bauzà. At the end of this street you will see Can Det. You must enter through the back of the factory.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

Throughout the year the visits will consist of seeing the 400 year old historic house of Can Det with its imposing garden and the oil mill that preserves the traditional oil production system. Afterwards we will offer a tasting of our oil with other typical products and our own orange juice in the dining room of our house. As an example it includes typical Mallorcan bread, "ramallet" tomatoes, olives, almonds, orange jam etc. We will explain in detail the activity of the family linked to the traditional cultivation of ancient olive trees, citrus and oil production. In addition, an audiovisual presentation of the oil production process will be shown. Visits between October and January will be able to contemplate the production of the oil live.

Great tour with the owner of the house

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent tour! The owner gave us a tour of his home and showed us the traditional way to make olive oil. We then had a light lunch at his dining room table. The only thing that was lacking was that we weren't able to see the process (wrong time of year) also you do not see the olive trees. I have been on other tours that give you samples of different types of olive oil but here there is just one which was delicious.

Highly rated, excellent, best experience we had in Mallorca!

Published on Nov, 2024

Excellent, unique, intimate experience with the host of the beautiful home. The coolest thing we did in Mallorca! And what incredible olive oil! Make sure to buy some to take back home with you!

A Truly Authentic Experience

Great hospitality and information, delicious food with an interesting historical background. Worth every penny.

A worthwhile tasting tour

Published on Sep, 2024

The guided tasting tour is well-worth doing on a trip to Soller. It's really interesting to learn more about the process of making olive oil and to hear how this family is keeping the tradition alive in Majorca.

Quite a surprise & very interesting

Published on Sep, 2024

Tomau& his partner were perfect hosts, he gave an interesting 20 minute introduction to the family home, a short educational video on Olive Oil production at Can Det followed by a tour of the Olive oil making facility (harvested & produced in Nov/Dec each year). Then we were invited to be seated and the opportunity to sample the Olive oil, Spanish meats & cheese, olives, bread & tomatoes, orange juice, red wine, almonds & almond cake all from Soller before finishing off with an opportunity to purchase - great value for money and 80 minutes well spent!
