4 hours

Easy

Half-day morning tour visiting Mdina, Dingli Cliffs and San Anton Botanical gardens. Enjoy a guided walking tour of Mdina, the medieval town today known as the 'silent city'. Enjoy breath-taking views from Dingli Cliffs.

Walk the streets of this medieval town today known as the 'silent city' whilst your guide unravels its rich history. Be shown its secretive narrow winding streets to discover its dwarfed doorways, till you reach the city's bastions from where a stunning almost 360-degrees panoramic view of the island can be seen. 

The tour continues with a visit to the Dingli cliffs, known as the highest cliffs on the island. From here you can look out to the island of Filfla. 

Our final stop will be to the botanic gardens of San Anton, these originally being walled gardens for a palace that once served as a leisure residence for the Grand Master. A truly relaxing half-day excursion in and around the old capital of Malta.
