Get to know sunny Malta on this relaxing tour, which encompasses food, culture, heritage and the island's dazzling coastline. Wander the narrow streets of the capital Valletta, visit Barrakka Gardens and witness the saluting battery, and get a taste of delicious rustic cuisine. Tour fascinating medieval sites and shop for artisanal handicrafts, all while enjoying plenty of free time unwinding with good food, wine and views of the sparkling Mediterranean. You can also take in even more of the island's natural beauty on optional day trips to the Blue Grotto sea caves and the unspoilt island of Gozo.
Start today with a visit to the historic town of Rabat, famous for its well-preserved catacombs that date back to the Roman times. Following this, lunch will be in the village of Dingli, prepared with ingredients freshly picked from the family-run farm located 200m away. Also, we will learn about their traditional process of making olive oil. This unique experience will give you a moving, heart-warming taste of rural and family life on Malta. After lunch, our final destination will be Mdina, famously referred to as the Silent City. This former capital city is essentially a living museum, enveloped entirely by fortified walls and boasting a labyrinth of narrow passageways adorned with elegant Patrician homes, baroque churches, convents, and opulent palaces. A leisurely walk through this city of contrasting shadows and brilliant illumination will provide us with a deeper insight into the captivating history of Malta.
