The ancient walled city of Mdina, the former capital of Malta, comes to life as you wander its cobbled streets with a knowledgeable guide. Along the way you’ll hear stories of knights, royalty and intrigue that shaped the city. As you move through tiny alleyways and quiet squares, you’ll feel as though you’ve been transported back in time.

You’ll visit Mdina’s most picturesque, Instagram-worthy spots, including locations used in Game of Thrones and other blockbuster films. The tour also touches on anthropology, pop culture and everyday island life, so you’ll gain a broader sense of how people lived and worked here across the centuries.
