Things to Do in Malta
For an island so small you will be astounded by the outstanding choice of the things to do whilst you are in Malta.
Starting in the treasure trove of Valletta you can take in the sights of the Upper Barrakka Gardens, St John’s Co-Cathedral and the fascinating Three Cities, whilst soaking up the buzz of the narrow streets with its warren of hidden bars and cafes making sure to stop for a Maltese coffee or decadent lunch worthy of its accolade as a foodie capital.
Sampling Malta’s sizzling foodie scene is a must whilst you are there. Ranging from stunning Michelin starred restaurants, traditional delicacies and rural gastronomic experiences, along with sampling the fine wines of the Ta’ Betta winery. Combining that with exclusive private experiences; taking you can meet Fra. John Critien himself for an immersive experience of Fort St. Angelo, a private Caravaggio viewing in the St Johns Co-Cathedral, a tour of a private palazzino in the ‘silent city’ of Mdina, meeting local instrument artisan Francesco Sultana, or turn your hand to pastizzi making in the countryside.
Not forgetting Malta’s little sister Gozo, where you can have hours of fun exploring on a quad bike adventure, discovering its caves by boat, swimming the crystal-clear coves and relax with a delicious private picnic in a stunning scenic spot. There really is something for everyone.
