Mdina and Dingli Cliffs Day trip
Description
When making your reservation you can choose one of the following options:
Half-Day Trip (4.5 hours)
Having picked you up at your hotel we'll hit the road towards Mdina, a historic walled city found only 30 minutes from the Maltese capital. The tour crosses the famous Greek Port to tour the narrow winding streets of the old town, where we'll find architectural marvels such as the Cathedral of St. Paul, learning about the fraught tale of the apostle's journey to the island.
The excursion then continues to the imposing Dingli Cliffs. These sheer rock faces looking out onto the Mediterranean, which are in some areas up to 250 metres high are known as being one of southern Malta's most beautiful natural sights.
Then our final stop comes in Attard, where we'll enjoy the peace and quiet of San Anton Gardens: a beautiful public park found next to the Maltese President's official residence. And from here the tour heads back to your hotel.
Full-Day Trip (8.5 hours)
The morning will follow the same itinerary as the half-day excursion, including a stop to visit the Christian catacombs of Rabat after the visit to the old town of Mdina. We'll then see the cliffs of Dingli, and return to Mdina to refuel with lunch in town. The menu includes: starter, main course, dessert and wine.
Then, having eaten we tour the Saint Anthony's Gardens, and make our way to Ta’Qali, where you're sure to be amazed by the number and quality of products manufactured on the Maltese archipelago.
Finally, we'll head to Mosta, to visit the Parish Church of the Assumption, popularly known as 'The Roundabout'. Can you guess the size of its gigantic dome?! Then from Mosta, we'll begin the journey back to the hotels on the island.

The tour includes pick up between 8:30 and 9:30 am, in the major hotels on Malta. Having made your reservation, we'll contact you to confirm the exact time and place.
