Itinerary

1. The Three Cities—Vittoriosa (Birgu), Senglea (Isla), and Cospicua (Bormla)—are a trio of historic fortified cities overlooking the Grand Harbour. Rich in maritime and military history, they offer charming narrow streets, ancient bastions, and stunning views of Valletta. Explore centuries-old churches, walk along the waterfront promenades, and experience authentic Maltese life away from the crowds. Each city holds its own character: Birgu with its noble past, Senglea with panoramic gardens, and Cospicua with its impressive fortifications.

   40 min

2. Nestled along the southeastern coast of Malta, Marsaxlokk Harbour is a picturesque fishing village renowned for its vibrant charm, tranquil atmosphere, and colorful luzzijiet — traditional Maltese fishing boats that gently bob in the crystal-clear waters. With their bright hues of red, yellow, blue, and green, and the iconic "Eyes of Osiris" painted on the bow for protection, these boats are the heartbeat of the harbour and a symbol of Malta’s seafaring heritage. A visit to Marsaxlokk is not complete without a leisurely boat ride. As you board one of these traditional boats, the gentle sea breeze and the soft sound of lapping waves welcome you aboard. The ride takes you along the rugged coastline, offering panoramic views of the village’s waterfront lined with seafood restaurants and historic buildings. Your guide, often a local fisherman, shares stories of the village's past and the secrets of life at sea.

5. Known as Malta’s “Silent City”—is a beautifully preserved medieval and Baroque hilltop town encircled by massive limestone walls. Its narrow, winding streets lead past noble palaces, honey‑coloured facades, and the grand St Paul’s Cathedral, all exuding a serene, timeless atmosphere. By day, sweeping views stretch across the island; by night, quiet lamp‑lit lanes make Mdina feel like a journey back through centuries of Maltese history.
