Highlights
- Senglea - Scenic all throughout and offering panoramic views of Fort St Angelo and the Grand Harbor
- Birgu (Vittoriosa) - This was the maritime capital of the Knights of St.John, purposely chosen to avenge their defeat in Rhodes with an ultimate astounding victory over the Ottoman Turks. The scenic marina called Little Venice blends beautifully with a visit of the historic church of St. Lawrence.
- Marsaxlokk - This picturesque fishing village offers the most colourful boats imaginable.
- Blue Grotto (Il-Hnejja) - We first stop at a viewing point overlooking the Blue Grotto where it can be observed and admired from land, before proceeding down to the pier for the boat trip, which is however dependent on weather conditions. The boat trip is not included in the tour price.
- Dingli Cliffs - This is the highest point on the island, complemented by a rugged steep coast and a terrace-shaped landscape.
