Mdina and Rabat Walking Tour inc. Catacombs and St. Paul's Grotto
Description
This is the Original Mdina and Rabat walking tour. We were the first to introduce the concept of walking tour in this city. Take a journey back in time with our guides on the Mdina Tour, admiring the magnificent palazzos and churches in the city’s unique mix of medieval and baroque styles, as well as the spectacular panoramas from the high bastion walls. Learn about the colorful history of Mdina and the many sieges it endured, offering shelter and protection to the Maltese population against the frequent pirate attacks. Hear the story of how the Maltese uprising against the French started in 1798. This walking tour is the best tour you can take in Mdina and Rabat so as not to miss out on anything worth seeing in this city.

Dominic was a very kind, knowledgeable tour guide. It was an extremely interesting tour. Incredible.
This is the best tour I have ever been on, by far. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment while also being very impressed by the length of the tour - it never dragged. Dominic was engaging, exceptionally knowledgeable, and an upstanding gentleman - a credit to the Maltese tourist industry. I highly recommend this tour. Finally, I also loved how he didn’t wear a watch; he stayed present to give us more than just an experience, but a lifetime memory.
A very informative, interesting and humorous walking tour. A lot of dates to try and remember but delivered clearly with the odd laugh thrown in.
Douglas was an excellent tour guide. The tour was entertaining and he was very knowledgeable and witty
Caramel was our guide. His knowledge was outstanding and his stories entertaining. We learned so much history about Mdina and Rabat as well as some great food suggestions.
Carmel Micalleff was excellent- his Maltese background and clarity of his descriptions were perfect!
Really interesting tour - Carmel knew a lot about the city and brought a lot of humour alongside. Would recommend!
Another informative tour by Colour My Travel. A very detailed and well planned tour again utilising the shade wisely on route whilst explaining the history of Rabat and Mdina. Highly recommended. Thank you again.
