Pound the Pavement
Golden limestone streets, grand faÇades, and hidden courtyards set the scene for an immersive walk through Valletta’s UNESCO-listed heart. Meet your private guide in your hotel lobby and explore Malta’s Baroque capital, founded in 1566 by the Knights of St. John. Stroll atmospheric streets past St. John’s Co-Cathedral, the contemporary City Gate and Triton Fountain, and the historic spine of Republic Street and St. George’s Square. Step inside the Manoel Theatre, commissioned in 1732 and among Europe’s oldest working theaters, where ornate interiors recall a flourishing age of opera and performance. Your tour concludes on foot back at your hotel.
Let the evening unfold at an easy pace with a stroll to Upper Barrakka Gardens, one of Valletta’s most captivating viewpoints. As the sun begins to dip, the Grand Harbour glows in warm shades of gold and amber, with the fortifications, domes, and waterfronts of the Three Cities catching the last light of day. Pause along the stone balustrades as church bells echo across the harbour and boats drift quietly below, then continue along Valletta’s historic bastioned walls, where wide promenades and lantern-lit streets invite a leisurely wander. As evening settles in, honey-colored limestone faÇades soften under the lights, balconies glow, cafÉs murmur with conversation, and the faint scent of the sea lingers in the air.

VALLETTA TO ST. JULIAN'S


It’s All Ancient History
Stone, sea, and sweeping views frame this journey into Malta’s ancient past. Meet your private driver and guide for a half-day exploration of the UNESCO-listed megalithic temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra, among the oldest religious sites on Earth. Perched above the Mediterranean, Ħaġar Qim reveals monumental stone structures dating to 3600–3200 BCE, with views toward the islet of Filfla and remnants of altars and carved elements that hint at early ritual life. Just a short walk away, Mnajdra rests in a natural hollow above the southern cliffs and is often considered Malta’s most atmospheric temple complex, with three interconnected structures and a remarkably preserved faÇade dating to 3150–2500 BCE. Continue on to the Dingli Cliffs, the highest point of the Maltese Islands, where terraced fields drop toward the open sea and panoramic views stretch to the horizon, before returning to your hotel by private transfer.
Meet your private driver and vehicle for a transfer to St. Julian's. Approximate travel time is 15 minutes.

Island Time
Meet your private guide and driver as you embark of a full day excursion to the island of Gozo. You'll board a ferry for a relaxing 30-minute ride over the island, disembarking to head inland as you visit the UNESCO-listed prehistoric site of the Ggantija Temples. Considered to be one of the oldest free-standing monuments in the world, predating Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids, these two temples date back to 3600 and 3200 BCE. Walk through the ancient stone remains, imagining the complex's original magnitude as it would've stood over 5,000 years ago. Weather permitting, venture to the top of the hills of Nadur for picturesque views of Ramla Bay. Across the bay, view Calypso Cave which is allegedly the cave that Homer wrote about in his famous writing, the Odyssey. Continue to Xerri’s Grotto where you'll descend a 32-foot spiral staircase into a scenic, natural cave boasting stalagmites and stalactites. Heading to the north coast of the island, admire the 350-year-old checkerboard-like salt pans, passed down through generations. Head west towards Dwejra Bay, perhaps the archipelago's most spectacular natural landmark where, weather permitting, you'll board a traditional wooden boat for a short ride to enjoy a unique vantage point of the bay. Your Gozo experience culminates at the fortified Citadel in the heart of Victoria, where you can wander narrow alleyways and admire the hilltop's iconic Cathedral of the Assumption, completed in 1711. Conclude with a return ferry and transfer to your accommodation.
