Answer 4

It's easy but watch out for typical Spanish drivers!  It will take you a little time to get used to a left hand drive car so go for a few short trips before venturing too far & remember to go around roundabouts right to left!  I always drive abroad but sometimes it's cheaper to check out the local bus routes,they do discount tickets and can be very inexpensive and saves you the hassle of driving.  But ALWAYS check out the car before you drive it away, and take pictures of any damage that'salready done to the car.  Don't give them your credit card - pay with cash or you could end up with a nasty surprise on your credit card bill when you get home.  Anyway whatever you decide to do have a great holiday and I hope this helps!

Answer 5

Majorca is a relatively small island, so for one thing you can't get lost! Really if you can drive abroad, then you can drive in Majorca. Safe, sunny and super

Answer 6

If you are used to driving in Europe (except for UK) - on the right side - than there should not be any problem, as roads are good and towns well connected.

Have fun
