Description
Explore the more rural villages of Malta, combined with the history, culture & magnificent scenery.

Our first stop will be in the beautiful village of Mellieħa. Magnificent views, a large central square and a number of bays and beaches to explore.
Next, we drive on to Mosta. The first stop is at the famous Rotunda of Mosta with its impressive round dome, one of the largest unsupported domes in the world. The design of the church is based on the Parthenon in Rome and in World War II narrowly missed being destroyed when a bomb fell through the roof during Mass but miraculously failed to explode.
Next, to a quaint village having some of the oldest homes in Malta. Naxxar is built around a grand parish church in the middle of the village. It boasts a lovely palazzo next to the Church and spectacular narrow alleys.
