The day of arrival will serve as a first taste of the islands (both figuratively and literally). After arriving at the airport, get a weekly pass for unlimited travel around the islands of Malta and Gozo and head towards the capital city of Valletta. Depending on your arrival time, you can start with a light exploration right away, or leave everything for the next day.

The tour can begin in the vicinity of accommodation near the Grand Harbour, which separates the historic center of Valletta from the Three Cities area. Valletta itself, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers a compact center full of monuments, narrow streets and a pleasant Mediterranean atmosphere. In the evening, don't forget to explore with all your senses – fresh fish, seafood specialties, and typical pastizzi from street stalls are the perfect end to the first day.

!!ATTENTION!! Remember that this itinerary does not have a special day dedicated to visiting Valletta and the Three Cities. It expects you to visit the most interesting things on the day of arrival or departure.

It is filled with significant cultural and natural monuments. Start exploring the country by discovering the local historical pride - the ancient megalithic temples inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Once you have fully enjoyed the mysterious and fascinating atmosphere of the megaliths, set out to explore other beauties of the country, this time natural ones. On the rugged coast with limestone cliffs, you will be captivated by the Blue Grotto area with sea caves, cliffs and rock gates. The white rocks sharply contrasting with the blue sea are a feast for the eyes. End the day in a picturesque fishing village where time has stood still. Where else to taste something from the gifts of the local depths than here?

Follow in the footsteps of Popeye the Sailor and see the sets built to film the popular comic about this strong sailor. Later, head out to sea on the nearby long beach and relax your body before the subsequent march. During it, you will walk around the most remote tip of the island, where you will be greeted by breathtaking natural scenery offered by the local rugged coastline with sea caves, secluded bays and white cliffs. If you have snorkeling gear with you, this place is the right one. Then end the evening where you spent the whole day, by the sea. While strolling along the pleasant promenade, enjoy the coastal breeze and soak up the vibrant evening atmosphere. 

Whether you have snorkeling gear with you on the island or not, it would definitely be a shame not to get acquainted with the local underwater world. The local aquarium allows you to do this comfortably, where, in addition to Mediterranean species, you can also admire exotic species, not only fish. After getting acquainted with the marine fauna, it's time for a bit of history and culture. The picturesque royal town surrounded by walls with winding stone streets, churches and palaces is the perfect place for this. You will then spend the end of the day walking along the picturesque steep cliffs, from which you can observe not only the endless surface of the Mediterranean Sea, but also the sunset. You will have it there as if it were in the palm of your hand.

Sunbathing on golden sandy beaches, swimming in the clear sea or snorkeling - simply a typical summer idyll. However, if you are on the island outside the swimming season or you are not built for long lazing and lounging, the surrounding rocky coast with cliffs will surely keep you entertained. You can climb along the loose paths and crawl between the rock formations while enjoying views of the beaches and the sea below. Then all that remains is to explore the nearby archaeological sites with Neolithic temples and head to the hustle and bustle of the "big city" to experience the nightlife, so you can get to know another side of the country - an island of endless parties and entertainment.

From the main Maltese island by ferry to the neighboring island of Gozo, which is noticeably smaller, but incredibly packed with interesting places. So get up early - you have a lot to look forward to. After disembarking, move to the most beautiful beach on the island and perhaps the whole country with golden sand and the surrounding rugged terrain with mysterious caves. Before moving on to other natural beauties on the west coast - today's ruined Azure Window and a lagoon separated by a cave from the surrounding sea, it would be a shame not to explore the sights in the interior, led by the imposing megalithic temple and massive fortress. Whether you prefer lazing on sandy beaches, exploring natural beauties or historical monuments, the island of Gozo will surely enchant you.

Today is reserved for the departure home, so it's time to say goodbye to this sunny country. Depending on your departure time and preference, you can use any time to visit places in Valletta or the Three Cities that you didn't manage to visit on the day of arrival, or return to where you felt good. The island is really small and nowhere is far.

In the Three Cities area, located on the south side of the bay on two distinct peninsulas, walk through the narrow stone streets and coastal promenades, or visit some churches (e.g. St. Lawrence Cathedral). Beautiful views of the bay are offered by the fortresses Ricasoli and Saint Angelo. From here you have the capital Valletta at your fingertips. If you didn't manage to walk through Valletta on the day of arrival, you can set off to explore the other side of Grand Harbour Bay, where this city lies.

However you decide to spend your last time in Malta, thanks to the proximity of the airport and frequent connections, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the island until the last moment.
