Mdina Old City

After pick-up from your location in Malta, around 9:00 am, we will start our journey by visiting the old city of Mdina. Located in a very central location, this imposing fortified town is built strategically on a hill giving a dynamic view of the whole island and its landscape. The ramparts are a vantage point for the onlookers and photo enthusiasts. Its roots date back to the late Roman times, but the hill is believed to have been settled since Neolithic times.You can spend time wandering along the narrow street and the ramparts. Cross the street you can try the local pastizzi - a local pastry delight filled with peas or cheese.

St Paul's Catacombs

After your visit in Mdina one can visit the Paleo-Christian Catacombs of St Paul. Serving as a burial ground from Punic and Roman times, the site represents the earliest and largest archaeological evidence of Christianity in Malta. Its association to the saint derives from the myth that this cluster of catacombs was once connected with St Paul’s Grotto. This site has an admission fee and can be challenging in some areas but still a wonder for the history enthusiast.

Mnajdra Temples

An interesting site that marks Malta's neolithic period are the megalithic temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra. The temple of Ħaġar Qim stands on a hilltop overlooking the sea and the islet of Filfa, not more than 2km south-west of the village of Qrendi. At the bottom of the hill, only 500m away, one finds the remarkable temples of Mnajdra. Both sites are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The remains suggest a date between 3800 – 2200 BC; a period known as the Ġgantija phase in Maltese prehistory.One can either visit the interpretation centre and enter inside the temples at a fee from reception or walk for free around the archaeological park.
