Valletta
Begin your journey in Valletta, Malta’s stunning capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As you stroll through its elegant streets, your guide will reveal the city’s rich history, shaped by the Knights of St. John. Visit the Upper Barrakka Gardens for breathtaking views of the Grand Harbour, and admire the striking architecture of St. John’s Co-Cathedral, home to masterpieces by Caravaggio. You'll also pass historic bastions, quaint squares, and bustling markets, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of this fortified city.
Mdina
After exploring Valletta, you'll travel in comfort to Mdina in a private vehicle, accompanied by your professional guide and driver. Arriving in the “Silent City,” you'll step into a world of medieval charm and noble history. Perched on a hilltop, Mdina offers sweeping views of the island and a serene atmosphere. Stroll through its quiet, narrow streets lined with impressive palaces and historic buildings, as your guide shares fascinating insights into its role as Malta’s former capital and a stronghold of aristocracy.
Mosta
The final stop takes you to the charming town of Mosta, best known for its awe-inspiring Rotunda – the Mosta Dome. Travel there comfortably with your guide and driver, and learn about the remarkable story of this architectural gem, which boasts one of the largest unsupported domes in Europe. If time permits, you'll have the opportunity to step inside the church and marvel at its grand interior, including the replica of the WWII bomb that famously pierced the dome but failed to explode – a symbol of resilience for the Maltese people.
