A New Kind of Thrill
As someone who’s spent a lifetime chasing adrenaline, from scaling the jagged peaks of the Andes to diving headfirst into the swirling depths of the Blue Hole, I thought I’d seen it all. But when I heard about the Dingli Funtastic Tour, I knew I had to experience it for myself. The idea of exploring the Maltese landscape on a Segway was intriguing, and the promise of breathtaking views from the Dingli Cliffs was too tempting to resist.
Upon arrival, I was greeted by our guide, Matthew, whose enthusiasm was infectious. He walked us through the basics of Segway operation, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and confident. As a former extreme sports athlete, I appreciated the attention to safety and detail. The Segway was surprisingly intuitive, and after a few practice runs, I was ready to embark on this unique adventure.

The tour took us through a variety of terrains, from smooth roads to gently rugged paths. The Segway glided effortlessly, allowing us to focus on the stunning surroundings. We passed through citrus groves, their vibrant colors and intoxicating scents enveloping us in a sensory embrace. It was a reminder of why I love adventure travel – the chance to become one with the environment, to feel the pulse of a place beneath your feet.
Matthew’s knowledge of local history and landmarks added depth to the experience. He shared stories of the island’s past, painting a vivid picture of Malta’s rich cultural tapestry. A surprise wildlife encounter added an unexpected thrill, a reminder that nature always has a few tricks up its sleeve.
