01 Valletta

Malta’s capital city takes its name from its founder Jean Parisot de la Valette, Grand Master of the Order of St John. Completed in only 15 years in the XVI century, Valletta is a Fortress City which still bears many signs of its past: historic buildings, city walls, narrow ancient alleyways, statues, fountains. The city is best explored on foot.

02 The Malta Experience

This educational audio-visual show opened in 1980. Through the use of authentic imagery and gripping commentary, the island’s 7000 years of turbulent history are brought to life in 45 minutes.

1 hour See on map
03 Blue Grotto, Malta

One of the natural wonders of the island, the system of 6 caves surrounded by high cliffs and a massive arch is an extremely popular site with tourists and has been featured in the 2004 movie ‘Troy’. The light reflecting on the minerals in the underwater rocks creates the spectacular colour which gives its name to the main cave.

2 hours See on map
04 Mdina

“The Silent City” is an extraordinary example of ancient walled city with over 4,000 years of history. Discover the timeless charm of Mdina and its many cultural treasures whilst exploring on foot: the almost total lack of cars adds to the peaceful atmosphere.

Half day See on map
05 Marsaxlokk

This picturesque fishing village in the south of the island is very popular with tourists and has a number of fish restaurants lining the harbour. The main attraction is without doubt the typical “Luzzus” – very colourful, traditional fishing boats.

Tip: The village is extremely popular with tourists. Arrive early in order to avoid the crowds!

Half day See on map
06 Mediterraneo Marine Park

Enjoy a fun and educational day at this Marine Park and learn about dolphins, sea lions, exotic birds and reptiles. The main attraction is no doubt the Dolphinarium where visitors are able to enjoy daily shows and even interact with the dolphins.

07 Gozo

Malta’s neighbouring island is well worth the trip. Smaller and greener than Malta itself, Gozo is steeped in history with Neolithic temples, old forts and splendid baroque palaces and churches. A regular ferry service connects it with the main island of Malta.

Full day See on map
08 Ggantija Temples

The two temples are located on the island of Gozo. Built between 3600 and 3200 BC, they have been included in the UNESCO World heritage List and represent some old the oldest free standing monuments in the world – they precede Stonehenge and the Egyptian Pyramids. The on-site Interpretive Centre provides visitors useful information on life in the Neolithic and is home to a number of archaeological artefacts.

Performance venues

Parish Church, Naxxar We recommend a performance in the Parish Church of Naxxar where the priest invites choirs to perform at Mass and on the church steps after Mass. Expect a very welcoming audience.
Upper Barrakka Gardens, Valletta Every day at midday a cannon shot is fired from the gardens to commemorate the Siege of Valletta and numerous tourists flock to the gardens to witness the ceremony. Performances take place right after midday for a guaranteed audience.
Parish Church, Mosta Sing in the church of St Mary with its unusual circular shape and impressive dome - the fourth largest in the world! The church is famous for an incident that happened in 1942 when a bomb pierced the dome, landed in the church and slid across its floor without exploding!
Baystreet Shopping Complex St Julian St Julian’s is the tourist capital of Malta – busy, vibrant and young with plenty of cocktail bars, nightclubs, restaurants and smart hotels. The shopping complex is in the centre of the resort and performances are arranged on the open air stage in the central plaza.
Bay Square, Bugibba Bugibba is a pleasant resort popular with families. Bay Square is right on the water’s edge and lined with cafés, bars and restaurants. Groups with a popular and upbeat repertoire are especially welcome here.
St John's Co-Cathedral, Valletta Choirs have the opportunity to sing in the splendid setting of St John’s, built in the high Baroque style as testament to the wealth and power of the Knights of St John. The Cathedral’s highly ornate interior is truly awe-inspiring.
