This is amazing itâs a nights of Templar church and the city itâs in is amazing ! The history and how many times it was bombed is incredible ! Iâm sure you already have but search up the history !!! Itâs incredible
Tiffany
We went here ! You need to buy tickets in advance ! They only let so many people through each day due to temperature ... it was amazing ! Check it out online and buy tickets early !!
Tiffany
The beaches are suppose to be amazing and all the locals are so friendly and helpful and speak English due to the British Invasion ! Iâm so jealous we want to go back so badly itâs incredible there

We had a fantastic trip there, great seafood, but I canât give any concrete tips because I donât remember the details....however I can give music tips. Check out Phillip Boa an alternative German band, the lead spent a lot of time on Malta and still lives there.
Read about the history as well (if you havenât already)

You could stay right in Valletta - itâs not where the nightlife is and is quiet at night... but probably expensive. Otherwise, you could look into accommodation in the Three Cities. They are close to Valletta but have a quiet local feel. Malta is wonderful-enjoy!

Recommend taking the tourist buses, and choose where to go. Get off and for how long. Roads are incredibly skinny, I wouldnât rent a car personally.
Beautiful beaches, we stayed in Vallarta in hotel room with view, on the ocean front with breakie for very reasonable rates. LoVely fireworks

Planning Your Trip to Malta in June 2019
Where to Stay
Since you're renting a car, you have the flexibility to stay anywhere on the island. However, if you're looking for a quiet and peaceful area, I would recommend avoiding the popular tourist areas of Sliema, St. Julian's, and Bugibba. These areas can be quite noisy and crowded, especially during the summer months.
Instead, I would suggest looking for accommodations in the following areas:
* **Mdina:** This medieval walled city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is known for its stunning architecture and narrow streets. It's a great place to stay if you're looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway.
* **Gozo:** This smaller island is located just off the coast of Malta and is a great place to escape the crowds. Gozo is home to beautiful beaches, charming villages, and historical sites.
* **Victoria:** The capital of Gozo, Victoria is a lively town with a variety of shops, restaurants, and bars. It's a great base for exploring the island.
Areas to Avoid
There are no areas of Malta that I would recommend avoiding outright. However, as I mentioned before, the popular tourist areas of Sliema, St. Julian's, and Bugibba can be quite noisy and crowded. If you're looking for a more peaceful experience, I would suggest avoiding these areas.
Things to Do
There are plenty of things to see and do in Malta. Here are a few of my favorites:
* **Visit the Megalithic Temples:** Malta is home to some of the oldest and most impressive megalithic temples in the world. These temples were built thousands of years ago and are a testament to the ingenuity of the ancient Maltese people.
* **Explore the Blue Grotto:** This stunning sea cave is located on the southern coast of Malta. You can take a boat tour of the cave and admire its crystal-clear waters and colorful marine life.
* **Gozo:** As I mentioned before, Gozo is a great place to visit. The island is home to beautiful beaches, charming villages, and historical sites. You can easily spend a day or two exploring Gozo.
* **Eat Maltese food:** Maltese cuisine is a delicious blend of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavors. Be sure to try some of the local dishes, such as pastizzi (flaky pastries filled with ricotta cheese or mushy peas), rabbit stew, and ftira (a type of flatbread).
What Has Awed Me
I have been awed by many things during my travels to Malta. The island's rich history, stunning scenery, and friendly people have all left a lasting impression on me. But if I had to choose one thing that has awed me the most, it would be the Megalithic Temples. These ancient structures are a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the ancient Maltese people. I highly recommend visiting these temples if you're ever in Malta.

Looking at going to Malta June 2019. Will fly in/out Gatwick. Renting a car and accommodations through vrbo/airbnb. Not sure which part of island to rent in? Areas to avoid? Will drive around to different places, so no need to be near anything like airport, beach, etc. We are quiet, early to bed/early to rise type, so want to avoid party central. Anything a must do? What has awed you? Thanks in advance!
