Malta has some stunning night sites, so enjoy a cool summer night tour exploring these highlights, including:

1. Paceville – The long, warm summer nights of Malta lend themselves to a vibrant nightlife, especially in the traffic-free zones of Paceville. Evenings start late and for many clubbers the revelry lasts into the late hours of the morning.

2. St. Julian’s & Sliema – The area of St. Julian’s and Sliema is one of Malta’s major commercial and residential areas with a number of restaurants, shops and hotels. The history of this area is generally linked to the nineteenth and twentieth century and it became very popular during the British period. In 1814 as a result of the Treaty of Paris, Malta officially became part of the British Empire and remained so until Independence in 1964. Today, this area is a popular holiday destination with a number of hotels, restaurants and 
English Language schools.

3. Ta’Xbiex - This area known as Ta’Xbiex has, since the time of the British, been one of Malta’s prime sites for real estate, due to its wonderful views of the harbour and Valletta, hence the number of impressive buildings of Baroque and Victorian architecture, many of which are now embassies and offices.

4. Msida – Lies on the shores of Msida Creek, one a quiet haven for fishermen and today an important marina where beautiful luxurious yachts are seen berthed next to the local fishing boats

5. Valletta's ramparts and harbour - the bus tours around Valletta's perimeter features the following:

Grand Harbour, the stunning natural harbour surrounded by Three Cities one side, and Valletta on the other.

Marsamxetto harbour, another beautiful harbour surrounded yacht marinas, Fort Manoel, Msida and Sliema creeks.

Mediterranean Conference Centre, which was was originally built as the hospital of the Knights of St. John. At the time, it had one of the longest halls in Europe. The patients were served on silver plates and with silver cutlery for reasons of hygiene.

Fort St. Elmo, a magnificent fort at the tip of Valletta's rampart. During the Great Siege, the fort of St. Elmo was overcome by the Ottoman fighters but it heroically diminished the enemy’s strength as it battled the invaders. 

Castille, is a monumental Baroque building, known to this day as the Auberge de Castille or simply Castille was the one of the Auberge's built by the Knights of St. John. Today, these are the Offices of the Prime Minister of Malta.

6. The Aqueducts – The aqueduct was funded in 1610 by Grandmaster de Wignacourt. Now redundant, these silent arches once played a fundamental role by bringing water to the new capital, Valletta, from natural springs in central locations of the island. You can still see parts of the Aqueducts which follow the contours of the land. 

7. Mdina – Mdina which is a medieval city is built on a plateau in the centre of the island, the city's old Baroque buildings, Cathedral and magnificent ramparts dominate the rural skyline. Mdina, once the capital of Malta until the modern city of Valletta was built had many names including Melite (Roman occupation), Medina (Arabic occupation), Citta Notabile (Knights of St. John) and Citta Vecchia (after Valletta was built). Today it is also referred to as the Silent City since it inspires tranquillity at any time of the day or night. The only way to really experience and enjoy this city is on foot, explore the quaint alleys, narrow streets, ancient buildings and magnificent far-reaching views from the high bastion walls. You will have one hour free time to explore the city.

8. Mosta – One possible interpretation of the name ‘Mosta’ derives from the fact that the town is right in the centre of the island. Mosta church is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and was built between the years 1833 and 1860 by the architect George Grognet de Vasse as an enlarged version of Rome’s famous Pantheon. It is one of the largest unsupported domes in the world after St. Peter’s in Rome and Haghia Sophia Istanbul. Mosta’s Feast Day falls on the 15th August, which is Malta’s most popular feast and is celebrated in many parished across the Island.

9. Naxxar – Ancient historical records show that Naxxar has been a parish since the early 15th century. Today, Naxxar is thriving town of over eleven thousand people living in the traditional village centre or in the more modern areas with its wide avenues and pleasant surroundings.

10. Lija - A small village that forms part of the three villages of Malta, along with Attard and Balzan. Lija has a baroque parish church, seven small chapels, old houses of character, large citrus gardens & also a unique Belveder tower.
