Drive around the fortifications of Valletta, which are beautifully illuminated at night, and stop at the Valletta Waterfront in Grand Harbour. Built during the time of Grand Master Pinto, the waterfront area comes alive after dark and is a lively focus for dining and socialising alongside historic harbour views.
Visit Rabat, situated in the centre of the island, and explore its narrow, winding streets on foot as you make your way to Mdina, Malta’s Silent Old Capital City. At night Mdina takes on a mysterious and evocative character, appearing very different from its daytime self. The compact city is rich in palaces and churches and was once inhabited primarily by noble families. Its layers of history trace back to the Phoenicians, the Romans, the Normans and the Knights of St John.
From the ramparts of Mdina the vista opens up across the island, with towns and coastline sparkling under the night sky. The combination of coach transfer and short walks provides an atmospheric and efficient way to sample Malta’s heritage, architecture and evening ambience in a single outing.
