Enjoy the festive season on the friendly Mediterranean island with the warmest of welcomes for British visitors.
Head south to the Mediterranean for this winter-warming festive break on the historic island of Malta. Blessed year round with an agreeable climate, Malta puts on a wonderful festive cloak at Christmas, combining the very best traditional celebrations and some glittering illuminations.
View a full breakdown of your holiday to help you plan your trip
Fly to Malta, meet your tour manager and transfer to your chosen hotel in Qawra.
The first of your included excursions explores island capital Valletta. Take in the award-winning Malta Experience, as well as major sights like Auberge de Castille – the former home to the Knights of St John – and the Upper Barrakka Gardens, from where the Grand Harbour can be viewed and the cannons of the 16th-century Saluting Battery fire daily at midday and 4pm.
Our second included excursion, on Christmas Eve, 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, explore one of the Mediterranean's oldest dockyards at Cospicua, and pause for lunch at Birgu’s lovely marina. After lunch you’ll transfer to Marsaxlokk, known for its picturesque seafront promenade and colourful fishing boats bobbing up and down in the bay.
This evening, begin your festivities with a Gala Christmas Eve Celebration dinner and live entertainment at your hotel.
Enjoy a perfect Christmas Day of rest, relaxation and celebration in the hotel and its surroundings, perhaps heading out for a traditional Christmas lunch.
This evening, dinner will be served as usual at your hotel.
Join today’s optional cruise to explore Sliema and take a relaxing cruise on the water. Depart your hotel after breakfast and head to Sliema, where you’ll enjoy a relaxing stroll along the sweeping waterfront promenade, with the 18th-century polygonal Fort Tigné at its southernmost point. You’ll have the chance to stop and do a bit of shopping and to pause for a spot of lunch.
After lunch, you’ll board your boat for a 90-minute cruise out into Marsamxett harbour. At the centre of the harbour is Manoel Island, named after the Portuguese Grand Master António Manoel de Vilhena, who built a fort on the island in the 18th century.
Enjoy a restful day today, or perhaps join the optional excursion to delightful Gozo. Board the ferry for a crossing to the quaint port of Mgarr, and visit the island's fortified capital, Victoria, picturesque Marsalforn, famous Calypso's Cave overlooking sandy Ramla Bay and the fascinating inland sea at Dwerja.
On today’s optional full-day excursion you’ll travel inland to Mdina. Malta's ancient, fortified former capital stands atop a rocky bluff, its beautiful ‘silent city’ of narrow streets lined with stone-built houses. The tour will also include the town of Rabat, famous for its subterranean catacombs and where Bellini’s statue of St Paul depicts the Apostle’s shipwreck on the island. You'll also visit Mosta’s famous church, the vast unsupported dome of which survived a direct hit during World War Two, and the spectacular Dingli Cliffs.
Return to the airport to check in for your flight home.
