Pastizzi experience
1 / 4
Discover Malta’s most beloved street food – flaky, golden pastizzi, a samosa-like pastry typically filled with ricotta or curried peas. On this hands-on excursion, we’ll step into a private Maltese home and learn from a master pastizzi maker who’s been perfecting the craft for years. You’ll roll, layer, fill, and shape your own pastizzi, then bake them to crispy perfection. Of course, the best part is tasting your handiwork. Afterward, take a scenic stroll through the village and cap off the experience with spectacular views at Dingli Cliffs.
Hands-on culinary workshop
1 / 4
It’s time to roll up our sleeves for a hands-on culinary workshop led by local artisans. Held at an exclusive farm venue, we’ll handcraft cheese on a sheep farm, whip up homemade jams, or master an age-old skill. It’s the perfect mix of hands-on fun and laid-back charm — all while giving back to the local rural community.
Wine tasting and Mdina
1 / 4
Soak up the beauty of Malta on this full day wine tasting excursion. We begin at a 19-hectare estate nestled beneath Mdina’s ancient walls, where you’ll wander through lush vineyards, explore underground cellars, and uncover the secrets behind each bottle. Next, relax on the panoramic terrace for a guided tasting of four exquisite wines, thoughtfully paired with a platter of Maltese delicacies. Finally, we’ll whisk you away to Mdina for a guided tour of Malta’s enchanting former capital.
Gozo
1 / 4
Just a 20-minute ferry ride from Malta, Gozo is a peaceful haven, known as the island of milk and honey. With only 26,000 residents, its green, fertile landscapes invite you to slow down and savour life. On this tour, our expert guide will share fascinating tales of Gozo’s history, culture, and every day. Wander through the captivating streets of Victoria, explore the stunning bay and natural site of Dwejra, and enjoy a delicious lunch at a traditional restaurant. Plus, there’ll be time to shop for unique, handcrafted souvenirs to take back home.
