Mysteries of Mdina:Semi private Tour of the Ancient city
Overview
Step into the ancient walled city of Mdina, the former capital of Malta, and let history come alive as you wander through its cobblestone streets. Your guide will share fascinating tales of knights, royalty, and intrigue that once shaped this remarkable city.
You'll also visit some of Mdina's most picturesque and Instagram-worthy spots, including locations where Game of Thrones and other blockbuster films were shot. As you explore the tiny alleyways, you’ll feel as though you’ve been transported back in time.
This tour is not just about admiring the historical significance of Mdina; it also delves into anthropology, pop culture, and everyday life on our island. Discover hidden gems, take in breathtaking views, and fully immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of this enchanting medieval town.
