Private Tour in Malta Prehistoric Temples & Mdina

A spectacular prehistoric site on a 4 Hours private tour to Ghar Dalam Cave and Museum, Tarxien Temples, Hagar Qim Temples, Mnajdra Temples, and the old capital Mdina. On the island of Malta, the temples of Hagar Qim, Mnajdra, and Tarxien are unique architectural masterpieces, given the limited resources available to their builders. The complex show how the tradition of temple-building was handed down in Malta. The temple builders used locally available stone of which they had a thorough knowledge. They used hard coralline limestone for external walls and softer globigerina limestone for the more sheltered interiors and decorated elements.
Mdina is a fortified medieval town enclosed in bastions, located on a large hill in the center of Malta. The town was the old capital of Malta, and with its narrow streets, few inhabitants, and beautiful views over the Island it is truly a magical town. Mdina is referred to as the “Silent City” by Maltese and visitors alike.
