Discover Malta's iconic treasures on an all-day adventure that takes you from east to west. A short drive along the coast brings you to the ancient temple of Hagar Qim. Standing on a hilltop overlooking the sea, the megalithic temple complex dates as far back as 3000 B.C. A 4D film introduction at the visitor's center details the history of these impressive Neolithic ruins.
Visit Wied iz Zurrieq, a little village tucked on Malta's west coast is home to rugged cliffs, deep sea waters and hidden caves. Here, you can choose to take an optional boat ride into the famous Blue Grotto and its surrounding caves, enjoy photo opportunities of the small inlet, check out local souvenirs or enjoy a refreshing beverage in a café'.
Next on the itinerary is a traditional Maltese lunch. Refreshed, you'll head to Valletta for a walking tour of this incredible World Heritage city.
