Good museum visits fill up through July and August, and the best ones go first. Below: the 6 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Malta’s Classic Car Collection Museum, with 100-plus vehicles, period memorabilia, practical tips, opening hours, and value advice.
“It was fantastic. So much bigger than I expected and a huge range of vehicles. My son in-law is a car enthusiast and was blown away. So much e than we expected. Well done.”
Explore Malta’s Classic Car Collection with priority entry, over 100 vintage vehicles, a cinema, and a live restoration workshop.
“My husband very much loved it. I booked the event as a surprise treat for him. An excellent collection of cars!! I have given 4 stars instead of 5 because there is no air-conditioning in this place. They do have ceiling fans, but only in some parts of building; hence it was rather hot and a little uncomfortable. However, on the whole, it is a wonderful place to visit.”
Explore Casa Rocca Piccola in Valletta, with aristocratic rooms, gardens, WWII shelters, period art, and guided or audio tours.
“we had automated guide whilst ok would have preferred actual guide.”
Explore Mdina’s St. Paul’s Cathedral and Cathedral Museum, from marble floors and frescoes to Dürer prints, silverware, and rare coins.
“It was great. We didn't understand that we needed to go to the museum to get th tickets for the cathedral. All visitors have to go to the museum for their tickets which turned out ok but we just didn't know in advance. Maybe we missed the instructions in the email sent to us. Great experience”
Explore Mdina’s Knights of Malta Museum with a 40-minute audio-visual journey through 7,000 years of Maltese history.
“redondance et approximatif n'apporte rien à la connaissance des Chevaliers”
Ride Malta’s vintage Xarabank to the Aviation Museum, Mosta Dome, WWII shelters, and a tasting platter on a four-hour tour.
“We (two adults and one 10 year old) enjoyed our tour very much, the 1930's vintage bus was so much fun to ride on, the aviation museum was brilliant, just enough time there. The Mosta Dome was absolutely amazing and a must-see for anyone coming to Malta. The WW11 shelters were good, too. The Platter were delicious and a great way to taste some traditional Maltese food. All in all, a brilliant 4 hours.”
