What to Expect

Discover Malta’s noble history, tranquil gardens, and ancient catacombs on this guided half-day tour.

This half-day tour begins with a visit to San Anton Palace in Attard, originally a country villa built in the early 17th century for Antoine De Paule, a knight of the Order of St. John. Today, the palace serves as the official residence of the President of Malta and is surrounded by the picturesque San Anton Gardens, open to the public since 1882.

Next, you'll explore Rabat, a historic town known for its traditional charm and religious significance. Your guided tour includes entrance to the renowned Catacombs of St. Paul, ancient burial sites from Roman times, famously linked to St. Paul's stay on the island in 60 A.D.

The final stop is Mdina, Malta’s ancient capital and now a quiet walled city listed on UNESCO's tentative World Heritage Sites. Walk its narrow, winding streets lined with noble palaces, experiencing panoramic views from its historic bastions.
