Overview

Mdina, Malta's former capital is situated on a hilltop in the central part of the island and dominates over two - thirds of Malta. It is one of Europe's finest examples of an ancient fortified city, characterized by medieval and baroque architecture. Known by the locals as the " Silent City", it encloses within its walls palaces belonging to Maltese aristocratic families, the majority of which are secondary homes. 

Walking through Mdina you will feel as though the city has been frozen in time; its narrow winding streets, majestic palaces, churches and courtyards make this city unique, a must-see during your stay in Malta!
Rabat, a suburb of Mdina, is also a historical town with strong religious ties. According to tradition during his 3 months stay in Malta, St Paul the Apostle lived in a grotto beneath the parish church.Your guide will lead you along some of the most typical street in Rabat highlighting the most important architectural features as you go along.

Our guide mentioned this was one of his first tours and he was clearly getting used to the engagement. We didn't get to find out his name, but he was very friendly and knew a great deal. We got to see all the main sites and learned a lot about the history of the Mdina and Rabat.

Took this tour as a couple. We have been on four wlaking tours with this company and they have all been wonderful. this was our second tour with Angele. She is very knowledgeable about Mdina and adds little anecdotes about its history. She gives a great blend of information, focusing on archit...

Mdina and Rabat are a contrast to Valetta. This tour is more suitable for those interested in history and are looking to get away of the hustle and bustle of Valetta. You could easily wander through Mdina yourself but the tour guide made it a more enriching trip.

Nadine was our guide! She waited for us even though we were 10 min late from the bus ! If she didn’t do the tour, Mdina & Rabat would not have been worthwhile. Thank you Nadine for all the info & the tour!

Great guide, everything was nicely explained. The pace was great, everyone had time to take pictures, and we heard loads of interesting information about this beautiful city. Our guide gave us recommendations for local restaurants and bars, we were very pleased.

Our guide was great, the headset system worked perfectly and her calm voice in my ears was better than not understanding half of what a guide shouts when in a big group. She always made sure to put things into context and put her own touch on it.
