Itinerary

45 min

Lamp lit by night and referred to as "the silent city", Mdina is fascinating to visit for its timeless atmosphere as well as its cultural and religious treasures.

45 min

Adjoining the old capital city, Mdina, Rabat's main attractions are the Roman Villa, with its excellent remains of Roman mosaic pavements dating back to the first century B.C., and St. Paul's Catacombs, a complex of inter-linked underground Roman cemeteries.

30 min

Located on Malta’s western coast, at 253 metres above sea-level Dingli Cliffs are the highest part of the Island. The cliffs are a popular attraction for tourists visiting Malta, heading there for a peaceful walk with boasting views of Filfla and the Mediterranean sea.

Admission not included30 min

The Mosta Dome is perhaps the most impressive church in Malta, with its massive rotunda, that is the third largest in Europe.

30 min

Souvenir shops, handmade ornaments, soaps, jewellery shops and glass blowing demos ...

Admission not included30 min

The location of this fascinating natural grotto combines with sunlight and the surrounding chain of caves to reflect the phosphorescent colours of the submerged flora and the deep dark shade of blue of the sea.

Admission not included45 min

The Ħaġar Qim temples are beautiful, a masterpiece of prehistoric masonry, and considering they were built between 3600 and 3200 BC, still very well preserved.

30 min

This fishing village is popular for a daily open-air market, offering a selection of the finest fish restaurants on the island and for the peaceful walks around the coast and harbour.

45 min

The capital city is abundantly rich in sites to see and explore, intriguing historical buildings around every corner: votive statues, niches, fountains and coats of arms high up on parapets. Narrow side streets are full of tiny quaint shops and cafés, while Valletta's main streets are lined with larger international branded shops.

Great trip to see highlights

The trip was great, very chilled, smooth. There was no rush at all and you can adjust to what you're interested in. If you have limited time in Malta but still want to see things and not have the hassle of public transport or taxis, this is great. Salah was top!

Operator response

We wish to thank you for your wonderful feedback! And we're delighted you enjoyed the relaxed pace and flexibility of the tour. Salah will be thrilled to know of your kind words. Thank you!

Great Day

We had a perfect day with our guide, Salah! We saw so many things and enjoyed being able to spend as much time as we wanted at each place. With a young child, the car service from each location to the next was a perfect way to see sights. We would highly recommend this tour!

Operator response

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so pleased you had a great day and enjoyed the flexibility to explore each location at your own pace. Traveling with a young child can be challenging, so it’s great to know the tour provided a relaxed and convenient way to see the sights. Thank you for your recommendation—it truly means a lot to us.

Great value

Sahal did a great job of choosing the route to advantage for a Sunday (reverse the usual route), providing information but also leaving us enough space to do our own thing.

We're glad you valued our tour highly and we appreciate your finding the time to leave this review. Thank you!

The best way to see Malta!

Excellent communication with our guide. He was exactly where he said he would be upon picking us up from the port. He negotiated narrow roads impeccably well and offered great narrative during our tour. Definitely well worth it!

Fantastic day

We had a lovely day being taken around Malta. Our guide, Salah colled is from our hotel and was very accommodating to the slight amendments we asked for. There was more traffic due to a number of cruise ships in the port but he coped amicably.

Operator response

We are glad you had a fantastic day touring Malta. Also grateful for being appreciative of the driver's flexibility to accommodate your amendments. Many thanks!

Great option to get an overview of many sights when on short layover.

Our guide Salah was professional and informative. He made suggestions, but let us ultimately decide what we wanted to do. Best part he would drop us as close as possible which saved a lot of time. Great option for getting an overview of the sights on a tight schedule.

Operator response

Many thanks for your positive remarks here and for choosing to tour Malta with us.

Great day with Selah!

We had a wonderful experience in Malta with Selah as our driver. He was knowledgeable, flexible, and although he had a great itinerary for us, he was very eager to make any changes we wanted. Frances was responsive with answering questions and Selah was awesome. So glad we booked this service.
