Located in the heart of Mdina is the Palazzo Falson, which originates from the 13th century. What you can see today is a Historic House Museum which has been beautifully restored and houses the personal items of the last owner residing in this house, Capt. Olof Frederick Gollcher OBE (1889-1962).

Your next stop is Clapham Junction. Clapham Junction is covered with very puzzling and mysterious grooves in the rock. They appear to be ancient archaeological roadways of some sort and can an be found all over the islands. Sometimes they are a solitary pair that can go on for miles, however, the cart ruts we will be visiting are extensive and criss-cross each other, hence the name 'Clapham Junction'.  One of the mysteries and frustrations of Malta's ancient history is that there are no records left thousands of years ago.

You will then drive to The Buskett Gardens, located in the fertile valley of Wied il-Luq, Siggiewi. The gardens are at their best in Spring but they offer shade from the harsh mid- Summer sun and offer a quiet place for a walk in the winter months. Verdala Palace, an official residence of the President of Malta, is located on the edge of the Gardens. A coffee break is also included in this tour where you will taste the delicious and traditional “Pastizzi”.

Your final stop is Dingli Cliffs, located less than a kilometre to the south-west of the village of Dingli. The cliffs are 220 metres high and are the highest point in Malta! An isolated chapel makes for a charming landmark. Built-in the 17th century, the Chapel of St. Mary Magdalene offers some of the most beautiful views you can get from these cliffs. From here you can also see the tiny uninhabited islet of Filfla.

During this excursion, you will tour onboard a Vintage Bus, a bus that is now rare to see on the Maltese Islands.

The type of vintage bus used for this tour may differ from the one featured.

On the rare occasion that the weather is forecasted to rain, the tour operator may decide to replace the vintage bus with a more modern vehicle. This is done to ensure safety and comfort.

The routing of the tour may be different to how it is explained in the tour description.
