Day Three – Included Valletta tour

On the first of our included excursions you'll explore Valletta. Visit the award-winning Malta Experience, where an audio-visual presentation will reveal the history of the island and its capital; the Upper Barrakka Gardens; and the Auberge de Castille – former home to the Knights of St John.
Day Four – Optional Mdina tour

Today brings an opportunity for some last-minute Christmas shopping, as well as the chance to enjoy an optional excursion to Mdina, the ancient, fortified former capital, with its beautiful 'silent city' of narrow streets lined by stone-built houses.
Day Five – Included Three Cities excursion

Our second included excursion explores the area across from Valletta's Grand Harbour, where three medieval 'cities' reflect the island's rich history. See one of the earliest Maltese Crosses in Vittoriosa, one of the Mediterranean's oldest dockyards at Cospicua, and Senglea with its waterside houses and steps down to the sea.

This evening, begin your Christmas celebrations with dinner and live entertainment at the hotel.
